Hi Grapey,
You don't know me that well. Mass shootings are a terrible thing no matter where they happen. What confuses me is the difference in the response to these horrible crimes between the 2 countries.
In the US, the general response to a mass shooting is the "more guns" idea, pitched by the NRA (and Wayne Lapierre, not George Bush). It happens very often.
Yes there are lots of responsible gun owners and the 2nd amendment protects peoples right to own them and thats fine. The "More guns" argument though is what perplexes me, and is usually the thing I sound off about.

you are aware that the whackjob who murdered the people in the Colorado movie theater picked a theater that DID NOT allow carry permits? even though the creepo had to drive to the other side of town from his place, because the other theaters allowed concealed weapons... that pretty much shows you how it works
