8. Does anyone on the news ever ask whether this would happen if there were no guns?

This doesn't happen in England or Japan.

[HipChick]

11. It does...but not so frequent

[Pavulon]

12. or switzerland, or germany, or finland?

are you asking a question or posting a political point. In england guns are banned and still used in murder.

Japan like switzerland is a homogenous society with low poverty rates, crime rates reflect that.

13. They can have their guns

Make bullets illegal, or try the Chris Rock plan - charge $5,000 a piece for them.

[Pavulon]

17. like how coke is illegal? that worked.

may be worth looking at why this does not happen in nations like switzerland where there is access to weapons.

[Ruby the Liberal]

29. I was joking, but I agree with you

We should be looking at other cultures to see what it is they are doing right.

20. I wonder what THIS craziness is going to be about?

Disgruntled employee? Religious nutbag?

[Barack_America]

21. Just another day in our violent, gun-obsessed society, I'm afraid.

So very sorry for the victims and their families.

[SoCalDem]

23. gun porn for the cable channels.. Time to watch my saved season of Burn Notice

:puke:

[spoony]

22. What religion/profession/politician are we blaming today

I want to be current. It's too bad we'll never really look at the deep roots of violence in our society because pinning it on whatever comes to mind first is easy. And God knows Americans like easy.

[1955doubledie]

25. Well, of course there HAS to be a political angle to this...

Preferably one that fits one's political agenda. :eyes:

[Electric Monk]

28. Lets blame this one on Mithraic accountants, at least until the facts are in.

Who's with me?

[Junkdrawer]

24. Just don't don't talk about semi-automatic hand guns or this post will...

be moved to the gungeon.

Carry on.
