Another reason to shop safely on-line.

As for banning guns ... wouldn't make a difference. There have been incidents where a single person killed many people using nothing more than a knife.

And then there of course are explosives - a tried and true method that dates back ages. Examples...

The Wall Street bombing back in 1920 that killed 38

Los Angeles Times bombing in 1910 that killed 21

And the worst school massacre in U.S. history - nope, not Columbine - that one wasn't even close ... the worst was in Bath Township, Michigan that killed 45 back in 1927.

Availability of guns, knives, explosives, etc doesn't get to the root of the problem, which is it ultimately takes people to create violence.
