Then you have the "Leave Britney alone" sydrome. I guess teen melodrama has happened for many years, it is just now the melodrama plus no self control / limit setting equals teens thinking about cranking up the melodrama into being on the nightly news in some type of spectacular shooting spree.
I play the most violent video games, and watch the most violent movies. I do not kill people. None of my friends that do the same kill people. I have been playing the since I was 7 or so. I would say it is more probable they were mentally unstable, in which case they could have imitated any violence they saw.

As for most school shootings. If guns were not baned from schools for at least teachers there would be some defense. Then if some kid started shooting he would not be able to kill so many people.

You ever notice that most of these vermin pick a place to do their killing where guns are baned and where nobody looks like they're carying a gun.

Stay away from people that kill other people. Guns are very safe. They have saved many lives.

On the first shot someone could try to shoot him. A principle at one school ran to his car when a student started shooting. He grabbed his gun and took the shooter out saved who knows how many lives. I forget what news I saw that on, but the story is out there.

So a criminal decides to kill some people then kill himself, and to do so he never goes anyplace that might be dangerous.
Isn't this considered rational thought?
I got no symathy for these coarardly peice of trash.
I say instead of trying to analyze why a peice of shit kills innocent people, instead of bringing up his troubled background, the media should inform the public that this peice of shit whose name isn't worth mentioning is burning in Hell now.

Oh I agree. I think that we should be able to carry guns in public. I am safest when I can defend myself.

I have never had a problem with guns, or the riight to bear arms.
My problem is that gun dealers should be more careful who they sell guns to.
Gun owners should be responsible enough to see that their gun is properly taken care of so the wrong people don't get it.

And just how will gun dealers come to agree with what you say (and I agree) they should do? All or at least most of them, I mean - not just a few.
I would even ask for some way of documenting this new sense of responsibility too.
