Giving everyone a gun to combat a handful of idiots with guns is like pissing petrol on a fire imo.
Take away teh guns and give em all a Bic Biro - "The Pen is mightier than a 9mm Uzi modded for fully automatic" as they say - whats the worst that could happen - gangbangers holding members of other gangs down and writing "I smell of wee" on their foreheads??
I know... how about we put the killers through lots of therapy and find out what makes a person kill someone, that way we can arrest everyone in advance of the crime
Plenty of gun owners in Switzerland, including fully automatic rifles. They don't go around shooting people.
Thing is, if someone is unbalanced enough to contemplate this kind of thing, they will be able to find someway to do it no matter what restrictions or gun laws are in place.
It's a big world and there are always going to be psychos who do horrible things.
Sadly however they all seem to be concentrated in one part of the world.
Well atleast the ones that are reported like this are, who knows how many happen in countries where they news isn't so "great"
Not at all, does killing one person make someone less unbalanced than someone who kills 30? How do you know the person that killed one wouldn't have killed 30 given the chance?
I agree that it gets reported widely when it happens in America though
