At least he's the only one making assumptions like that this time. Everyone else is whining about gun control. Almost as stupid.

Take away legal use of guns, and people still have all sorts of blades, blunt objects, and of course, their bare hands to kill someone with. OMGZ ban teh hands!!!

You have to admit it's a lot tougher to kill 33 people with your bare hands.

And getting in a car and driving down the sidewalk of a city is easier than pulling a trigger and will probably maim and kill more. Should we outlaw vehincles? No. It is not a gun control issue. It could actually be used to make a case for more lax gun control. If a responsible gun owner with a concealed carrying license was armed in one of those ****rooms, the shooter would have had a much harder time. If you could freeze time and put a gun in one of those students hands before they were shot, would you? I hope so.

Wow, that's called a vigilante, and he'd be breaking the law. The fact is guns are not needed by ordinary people, knives and cars are. The only people who should carry guns or even have access to guns are those who are given the right to use them. There's a reason why carrying guns around is illegal, unless you want to make that legal and let everyone have access to guns. But then you'd also have to give them the right to shoot them, and then in what circumstances would shooting a gun be right? Your concept of "responsible people" carrying guns is a bit weird, I thought that was what the police was for, (although some of them aren't exactly "responsible").

truth. But yeah, gun control isn't going to stop a maniac who obviously was willing to go to great lengths to get those guns. Gun control would only stop morons, a disturbed anger driven teenager like him would only need to look for them on the black market.

Funny how you sig has a guy shooting ronald Mcdonalds head off making fun of death this is america people this is why this **** happens.

I don't see what my sig has to do with violence in this country. Does my sig give you the sudden urge to murder 3 dozen people? No? Then I don't see the problem with my sig. I don't see how the mockery of death would encourage gun abuse, violent tendencies in our youth. We aren't all mentally unstable people who have the desire to shoot up a school. Those people are a rare occurence but its still a tragedy nonetheless.

well to me even if there 1 guy out there who may one day kill 33 people one day cause of a game then i don't mind censorship to avoid those trategy and yes your Sig is offense expecially so close to the VT shootings seems no one cares still it's really really sad. i was playing GTA LCStories the day of the shooting when i heard i took it out it reppulsed me and i felt bad shooting the pedestrians. Maybe it's just me cause i have a heart. Just imagine the people who saw the killer and lived if they see your sig they can have a flash back and start crying. this is called post tramtic stree disorder.

I have had this sig for a while but yeah I can see how bad the timing is. Anyway it is obviously intended to be funny, not seriously, but like I said, my sig shouldn't be too much of a problem. Just because I don't overreact to stimulating, violent images on a forum doesn't mean I don't have a heart, and it especially does not mean that I don't care about this horrific tragedy. But hey, whatever makes people feel better right? If they want to believe that things like my sig causes violence, then let them. I however, choose to realize these issues are complicated and its never just one thing that drives a person to go beserk and kill many people. Also if a person had traumatic stress I wouldn't hold it against them, but your making a big deal over a simple gif image. There have been far worse images on these internets. I personally think you are just trying to justify your arguement against my points by assuming I don't give a damn. Sure its ironic, but its not a representation of real life I don't idolize real violence. I idolize the funny, and over-the-top staged violence like this, because I know no one is getting hurt. Got it?

Peacebringer he has had that sig for a while now.

 

Anyway, are we now in a situation whereby if i decided to kill a few people someone would blame it on the fact i play CS or Gears of Halo? It seems ridiculous that people like JT are almost guessing as to reasons why people kill and presenting it as pure fact. I don't know how much this kid played CS but i'm sure it wasn't the game that made him want to kill. I'm sure it was mainly down to the fact that he felt society had rejected him and he was alone. The game may have fueled the fire slightly but it's down to people causing this tragedy. The same story emerged from Columbine with the kids feeling they had been bullied and belittled by the kids higher in the social ladders at schools but the whole thing was blamed on the game 'Doom'.

 

It just make me so mad to think that people like JT are so narrowminded that they feel they have to launch a vendetta on something we all enjoy. There's not real reasoning behind it, Jacks just a misguided fool.

readingfc_1
how come these killers didn't have pokemon and Mario games? notice the killers played FPS and the first thing Jack said without knowing anything is he trained on games he made a assumtion and then we learn from his Highschool friend he indead loved CS how did jack know this? no if the comlombine shooter and Cho had hello kitty games then it would be stupid but for somereason they played Shooters.

this is the excate reason why i belive in carrying a gun in public.

Giving everyone guns does not instantly make them all responsible law-abiding people. There are people with the capacity to kill out there, and the only thing stopping them is having no access to guns.

I mean... do you realize what you're supporting? Or are you some 15-22 year old male who thinks they know what they are talking about.

everyone has the capitcy to kill.

 

what is there to stop someone lets say like me for example to walk into a movie theater when your watching spiderman 3 and blow your brains out (not saying that i am or not threatening you just proveing a point)

 

I have a gun and it is not that hard to get one the cold reality is if that situation was real what would you do ? just sit there and die?

if people want to kill people they will do it guns or not also. i could kill more peoplewith my car then i could with a gun.

what i support is giving power to everyone not a select few so people can defnd themselves.

 

it would have been near impossible for that guy to kill 33 pwoplw and injured 26 more if only 1/4 of them had a gun.

Another thing I find repulsive about that letter is that he says shooters "train" people. I've logged a ton of hours on a ton of different shooters since the tender age of 9 (Wolfenstein), and not only have I never had the urge to shoot anyone, but I'm absolutely sure if I picked up a real Bullpup I still would have no idea how to even load it, let alone turn the safety off and begin killing people. It's unbelievable that this jerk*** is allowed to make such disgusting statements. He should be held accountable for these types of statements. He should stop using tragedy as a means to an end. He is the scum of the earth.

Sheeps, lemmings, cows. We must all put aside our petty squabbles once and for all, and destroy Jack Thompson!

DISCLAIMER: By "destroy", I mean flame and debunk him at length. No physical harm should come to Jack Thompson. No Jack Thompsons were injured in the making of this post.

He's protected by the same freedom of speech as games are. Also, where someone interpreted him saying games trained people as influencing them to kill, I took it as them learning combat skills. I can see games being influential to both, but I only think they can be that persuasive to vulnerable people. Instead of instantly stringing up a noose, put some thought into things. Of course games and forms of media can influence, but it takes a vulnerable person to be influenced to that extent.

You realize some of the sickest gore horror and sickest porn are not American, right? Don't try to act as if it's an American problem. I'll shoot holes all in that theory.

kids in colege should not have guns expecially on campus. sometimes if someone just has a bad day they can kill even just 1 person in the heat of the moment. like yourself lets say you lose your job, Girlfriend, you wreck your car if your girlfriend comes over with her new boyfriend in that mindset and something happens and the guy wants to fight won't you probally get set off and shoot him maybe just on instiinct? not saying you will but with somepeople 1 bad day and them having a gun can equal doom even if they have no mental illness history.

No one said everyone. Even if you want to use that extreme, if the shooter knew almost everyone at the school was armed, you actually think this would have happened? Even if he tried, he would've probably been killed after firing the first bullett.

We don't have as much of a gun problem in the UK where guns are banned. We do get some small isolated incidents, which are blown up in the media but in comparison to America we don't really have a problem.

A lot of people say if someone really wants to kill they will get a gun, which i agree with. I don't however agree with the fact that everyone should have acces to guns. We would find that people would be shooting people everywhere.

 

Of course people will always find way around a no gun policy but it significantly reduces the ammount of murders/deaths each year as people will just not find it as easy to kill each other.

I would want a gun. But the fact remains that if you're gonna open guns to everybody and give them the rght to shoot, then society would start to tear itself apart. Gun crime would rise by astronomical figures, because the guns right there in your possession. One bad incident doesn't need an ad hoc reaction to it, which legalizing guns would be. 

You wanna live in a society where you're under fear of being shot everyday because that would be the stark reality of opening guns for everybody and giving them the right to shoot.

how can you blame microsoft? What if video games didnt exist? This student responsible for the VT shooting would have still been able to get a gun, he also still would have been insane. Why go after Microsoft? Go after the gun maker, or wait, how about the company who made the bullets, or the gun powder inside that bullet. I wish Mr Jack T would use his smarts, i mean he is a lawyer, he should be smarter then this...lol

If a responsible gun owner with a concealed carrying license was armed in one of those class rooms, the shooter would have had a much harder time. If you could freeze time and put a gun in one of those students hands before they were shot, would you? I hope so.

 

this is the excate reason why i belive in carrying a gun in public.

Giving everyone guns does not instantly make them all responsible law-abiding people. There are people with the capacity to kill out there, and the only thing stopping them is having no access to guns.

I mean... do you realize what you're supporting? Or are you some 15-22 year old male who thinks they know what they are talking about.

everyone has the capitcy to kill.

 

what is there to stop someone lets say like me for example to walk into a movie theater when your watching spiderman 3 and blow your brains out (not saying that i am or not threatening you just proveing a point)

 

I have a gun and it is not that hard to get one the cold reality is if that situation was real what would you do ? just sit there and die?

if people want to kill people they will do it guns or not also. i could kill more peoplewith my car then i could with a gun.

what i support is giving power to everyone not a select few so people can defnd themselves.

 

it would have been near impossible for that guy to kill 33 pwoplw and injured 26 more if only 1/4 of them had a gun.

 

kids in colege should have guns expecially on campus. sometimes if someone just has a bad day they can kill even just 1 person in the heat of the moment. like yourself lets say you lose your job, Girlfriend, you wreck your car if your girlfriend comes over with her new boyfriend in that mindset and something happens and the guy wants to fight  won't you probally get set off and shoot him maybe just on instiinct? not saying you will but with somepeople 1 bad day and them having a gun can equal doom even if they have no mental illness history.

So if someone is having a bad day and just decides to run someone over, we should ban vehicles? Road rage, right?

At least he's the only one making assumptions like that this time. Everyone else is whining about gun control. Almost as stupid.

Take away legal use of guns, and people still have all sorts of blades, blunt objects, and of course, their bare hands to kill someone with. OMGZ ban teh hands!!!

You have to admit it's a lot tougher to kill 33 people with your bare hands.

And getting in a car and driving down the sidewalk of a city is easier than pulling a trigger and will probably maim and kill more. Should we outlaw vehincles? No. It is not a gun control issue.

So you're saying let everyone have guns and have the right to shoot them?

No one said everyone. Even if you want to use that extreme, if the shooter knew almost everyone at the school was armed, you actually think this would have happened? Even if he tried, he would've probably been killed after firing the first bullett.

So who would get the guns? Responsible citizens picked by the government?? What happens when one of these citizens kills someone by accident or indiscriminately? You gonna punish them all.

The people you allude to are called the police, if you want to increase police presence then just say so.

truth. But yeah, gun control isn't going to stop a maniac who obviously was willing to go to great lengths to get those guns. Gun control would only stop morons, a disturbed anger driven teenager like him would only need to look for them on the black market.

Funny how you sig has a guy shooting ronald Mcdonalds head off making fun of death this is america people this is why this **** happens.

I don't see what my sig has to do with violence in this country. Does my sig give you the sudden urge to murder 3 dozen people? No? Then I don't see the problem with my sig. I don't see how the mockery of death would encourage gun abuse, violent tendencies in our youth. We aren't all mentally unstable people who have the desire to shoot up a school. Those people are a rare occurence but its still a tragedy nonetheless.

well to me even if there 1 guy out there who may one day kill 33 people one day cause of a game then i don't mind censorship to avoid those trategy and yes your Sig is offense expecially so close to the VT shootings seems no one cares still it's really really sad. i was playing GTA LCStories the day of the shooting when i heard i took it out it reppulsed me and i felt bad shooting the pedestrians. Maybe it's just me cause i have a heart. Just imagine the people who saw the killer and lived if they see your sig they can have a flash back and start crying. this is called post tramtic stree disorder.

I have had this sig for a while but yeah I can see how bad the timing is. Anyway it is obviously intended to be funny, not seriously, but like I said, my sig shouldn't be too much of a problem. Just because I don't overreact to stimulating, violent images on a forum doesn't mean I don't have a heart, and it especially does not mean that I don't care about this horrific tragedy. But hey, whatever makes people feel better right? If they want to believe that things like my sig causes violence, then let them. I however, choose to realize these issues are complicated and its never just one thing that drives a person to go beserk and kill many people. Also if a person had traumatic stress I wouldn't hold it against them, but your making a big deal over a simple gif image. There have been far worse images on these internets. I personally think you are just trying to justify your arguement against my points by assuming I don't give a damn. Sure its ironic, but its not a representation of real life I don't idolize real violence. I idolize the funny, and over-the-top staged violence like this, because I know no one is getting hurt. Got it?

thing you don't seem to comprehend is it make death seem funny wich it is not. can't you just put something more respectfull there are Kids reading these forums and death is not funny.

You don't seem to realize that not everyone shares your view. You see, it is your opinion that you don't find this funny. Certain people do. In addition some people find certain things fun depending on their mood as well. Not everyone is going to be satisfied with it. That is just how it is. Also, anyone taking this as a serious mockery of people's deaths, should honestly get themselves checked out. Most would realize that this should not be taken seriously in the least bit. It is not meant to be insulting... I mean it's ronald vs the king for god's sake... :|

Wow, that's called a vigilante, and he'd be breaking the law. The fact is guns are not needed by ordinary people, knives and cars are. The only people who should carry guns or even have access to guns are those who are given the right to use them. There's a reason why carrying guns around is illegal, unless you want to make that legal and let everyone have access to guns. But then you'd also have to give them the right to shoot them, and then in what circumstances would shooting a gun be right? Your concept of "responsible people" carrying guns is a bit weird, I thought that was what the police was for, (although some of them aren't exactly "responsible").

 

Actually, with a license, carrying guns is perfectly legal, it just wasn't in this school. Vigilante? Who cares. It would have saved lives. Is this not what's important? Normal people have plenty use for guns. I have a .45. If someone tries to force their way into my house, it could just save my life. If I were a theif or murderer, I'd love the idea of gun control. I could get my illegal weapon and rest assured that my victims would probably have no defense.

so if you were in those hallways or ****rooms and you had a choice to have a gun or not, you would choose not to have a gun ? so the random kid could blow your head off ?

I would want a gun. But the fact remains that if you're gonna open guns to everybody and give them the rght to shoot, then society would start to tear itself apart. Gun crime would rise by astronomical figures, because the guns right there in your possession. One bad incident doesn't need an ad hoc reaction to it, which legalizing guns would be.

You wanna live in a society where you're under fear of being shot everyday because that would be the stark reality of opening guns for everybody and giving them the right to shoot.

you wanna live in a society where you have no way to defend yourself ?

when you get mugged, shot, rapped, or even worse i bet you would have changed your mind.

what is there to stop someone lets say like me for example to walk into a movie theater when your watching spiderman 3 and blow your brains out (not saying that i am or not threatening you just proveing a point)

it would have been near impossible for that guy to kill 33 pwoplw and injured 26 more if only 1/4 of them had a gun.

 

kids in colege should have guns expecially on campus. sometimes if someone just has a bad day they can kill even just 1 person in the heat of the moment. like yourself lets say you lose your job, Girlfriend, you wreck your car if your girlfriend comes over with her new boyfriend in that mindset and something happens and the guy wants to fight won't you probally get set off and shoot him maybe just on instiinct? not saying you will but with somepeople 1 bad day and them having a gun can equal doom even if they have no mental illness history.

then outlaw cars or even pencils or sciccors.

i rather have someone try to kill me with a car,pencil,scissor than a gun wich can mean instant death if you aim right. heck i know people that got hit by cars at 40 mph and still live. I can see somone trying to hurt me with those things so i can react and defend myself or just dodge it(the car) but you can't dodge bullets. how come Japan and europe have less violence and no one carries guns? this mostly happens in america where guns are accesible in Pawnshops and your local Walmart. your theory fails on many levels cause i have proof banning guns work. Europe and Japan.

guns are needed by people, if the goverment took away all guns legally from civilan hands. the miltary and police would still carry them and people would get them ileaglly anyway. you would only weaken our society.

lookat russia is thier less crime in russia then america, NO. does the govt outlaw weapons there yes.

A car has a different use than a gun. When a gun is used, it's used to either kill, defend, injure, rob, hunt, etc. another person or being.

And getting in a car and driving down the sidewalk of a city is easier than pulling a trigger and will probably maim and kill more. Should we outlaw vehincles? No. It is not a gun control issue. It could actually be used to make a case for more lax gun control. If a responsible gun owner with a concealed carrying license was armed in one of those ****rooms, the shooter would have had a much harder time. If you could freeze time and put a gun in one of those students hands before they were shot, would you? I hope so.

Wow, that's called a vigilante, and he'd be breaking the law. The fact is guns are not needed by ordinary people, knives and cars are. The only people who should carry guns or even have access to guns are those who are given the right to use them. There's a reason why carrying guns around is illegal, unless you want to make that legal and let everyone have access to guns. But then you'd also have to give them the right to shoot them, and then in what circumstances would shooting a gun be right? Your concept of "responsible people" carrying guns is a bit weird, I thought that was what the police was for, (although some of them aren't exactly "responsible").

 

 

so if you were in those hallways or ****rooms and you had a choice to have a gun or not, you would choose not to have a gun ? so the random kid could blow your head off ?

I would want a gun. But the fact remains that if you're gonna open guns to everybody and give them the rght to shoot, then society would start to tear itself apart. Gun crime would rise by astronomical figures, because the guns right there in your possession. One bad incident doesn't need an ad hoc reaction to it, which legalizing guns would be.

You wanna live in a society where you're under fear of being shot everyday because that would be the stark reality of opening guns for everybody and giving them the right to shoot.

you wanna live in a society where you have no way to defend yourself ?

when you get mugged, shot, rapped, or even worse i bet you would have changed your mind.

 

giving everyone a gun is not the answer..

Take away legal use of guns, and people still have all sorts of blades, blunt objects, and of course, their bare hands to kill someone with. OMGZ ban teh hands!!!

There are plety of sociieties where guns are extremely difficult to come by and they manage to continue along just fine. Maybe you should cut down on the sensationalism. 

I do live in a society where guns are extremely hard to come by, the UK. And if by your retort everyone in the US walks around carrying a gun I'm not suprised you have so many shootings.

You have to admitit's alot tougher to kill 33 armed people then unarmed people.

Add road rage, alcohol, drugs, or any other stimulant that can cause people to lose their self control and you'll have 34 people shooting each other.

Actually, with a license, carrying guns is perfectly legal, it just wasn't in this school. Vigilante? Who cares. It would have saved lives. Is this not what's important? Normal people have plenty use for guns. I have a .45. If someone tries to force their way into my house, it could just save my life. If I were a theif or murderer, I'd love the idea of gun control. I could get my illegal weapon and rest assured that my victims would probably have no defense.

that is what i am talking about gun control only helps those who would break the laws.

You live in the UK? Then you've probably heard in the news about Blair's comments. Gun and knife violence is increasing and becoming  a real problem in the UK. But wait, aren't guns outlawed? I can quote the news clip and link it if I really have to.

If you could freeze time and put a gun in one of those students hands before they were shot, would you? I hope so.

 

this is the excate reason why i belive in carrying a gun in public.

Giving everyone guns does not instantly make them all responsible law-abiding people. There are people with the capacity to kill out there, and the only thing stopping them is having no access to guns.

I mean... do you realize what you're supporting? Or are you some 15-22 year old male who thinks they know what they are talking about.

everyone has the capitcy to kill.

 

what is there to stop someone lets say like me for example to walk into a movie theater when your watching spiderman 3 and blow your brains out (not saying that i am or not threatening you just proveing a point)

 

I have a gun and it is not that hard to get one the cold reality is if that situation was real what would you do ? just sit there and die?

if people want to kill people they will do it guns or not also. i could kill more peoplewith my car then i could with a gun.

what i support is giving power to everyone not a select few so people can defnd themselves.

 

it would have been near impossible for that guy to kill 33 pwoplw and injured 26 more if only 1/4 of them had a gun.

 

kids in colege should have guns expecially on campus. sometimes if someone just has a bad day they can kill even just 1 person in the heat of the moment. like yourself lets say you lose your job, Girlfriend, you wreck your car if your girlfriend comes over with her new boyfriend in that mindset and something happens and the guy wants to fight won't you probally get set off and shoot him maybe just on instiinct? not saying you will but with somepeople 1 bad day and them having a gun can equal doom even if they have no mental illness history.

then outlaw cars or even pencils or sciccors.

Pencils and scissors and cars are needed by people, guns are not. A massive clampdown by the government on guns is what is needed, rid them out of society completely. The gun is designed with only one purpose in mind and that is to kill, it does not benefit society in the least.

guns are needed by people, if the goverment took away all guns legally from civilan hands. the miltary and police would still carry them and people would get them ileaglly anyway. you would only weaken our society.

lookat russia is thier less crime in russia then america, NO. does the govt outlaw weapons there yes.

 

Oh you want to play the comparison game. EU nations have outlawed guns over a century ago, maybe if the US followed the EU example it would have less gun crime... NO?

Gun crime is on the increase, but still small time compared to the US. It's all relative little boy, you must understand that. The UK historically has had low gun crime numbers so any increase is going to be looked harshly upon. Whereas in the US small increases don't matter it's an accepted thing.

Get your facts right.

Ok seriously.  Do you understand what you are suggesting?  Cars, pencils, or sciccors are not the topic.  We have car fatalities every day and even some murders using various objects.  THOSE ARE DIFFERENT PROBLEMS THAT MUST BE SOLVED SEPERATELY.

We are talking about GUNS and their effect in society.  You cannot associate other issues and use that to justify another issue.  It's like using a negative to justify another negative while disregarding the effects.

If you came up to me and shot me in the head: how did you get that gun?  If you tighten gun laws, wouldn't it be harder for you to have that gun in the first place?  Sure bring up the Black Market, but do you realize: that the Black Market is actually a lot harder to access than most people think.  Want to know why?  It's illegal.  There are so many dummy sellers out there as well as scanners who pick up sales through various chennels.  Want to know what happens then?  You get arressted, big time.

Now if you came up to me, behind me and shot me in the head.  How would I have been able to prevent that if I was unaware of it.  What good with the gun do me then?  Seriously you're not thinking about this enough.

How old are you?

And in the Wild West when basically anyone could carry weapons, crime rate was lower in America. I'm glad you're helping me make my point. The problem is not a lack of gun control, it's a current cultural problem that's spreading. You'll see.

gun control doesn;t work but banning does. What did Cho say when he got his guns? it's for protection right? but did anyone know what he was gonna do with it? no he lied and if you have a good record then you can get one but somepeople won't and the ones usally getting them wanna kill someone and they lie for it. seems like America wants it's guns even if it means Massacares like this and the ones in the future. How long before the next shooting? who knows but as long as theres gun easly accesible to people then there will always be these types of Massacres. The thing wrong about the theory that if you ban them only the criminals will have them but the fact is there ammo won't be a robust since they got it illegal they may just get one clip or just a few bullets but since it's legal you can buy 200 rounds if you please.

Hadoken_Kid

Ok seriously. Do you understand what you are suggesting? Cars, pencils, or sciccors are not the topic. We have car fatalities every day and even some murders using various objects. THOSE ARE DIFFERENT PROBLEMS THAT MUST BE SOLVED SEPERATELY.

We are talking about GUNS and their effect in society. You cannot associate other issues and use that to justify another issue. It's like using a negative to justify another negative while disregarding the effects.

If you came up to me and shot me in the head: how did you get that gun? If you tighten gun laws, wouldn't it be harder for you to have that gun in the first place? Sure bring up the Black Market, but do you realize: that the Black Market is actually a lot harder to access than most people think. Want to know why? It's illegal. There are so many dummy sellers out there as well as scanners who pick up sales through various chennels. Want to know what happens then? You get arressted, big time.

Now if you came up to me, behind me and shot me in the head. How would I have been able to prevent that if I was unaware of it. What good with the gun do me then? Seriously you're not thinking about this enough.

How old are you?

dont try to bring up age as in trying to insult someone for there belives.

 

I am old enough to hae a license for my weapons and i can carry them.

GL to you and your family or future family and i hope no harm comes apon them because they couldnt defend themselves.

he's right though you don't know when someone is gonna attack so you might have a gun in your pocket someone comes and shoots you before you even can react and as he said what good is the gun then. no person with a gun is gonna yell hey i have a gun then pull it out they pull it out point it and shoot this isn't the Wild Wild west anymore people need to grow up thinking there cool cause they have guns. Funny thing is most people who play shooters wanna buy a gun all of a sudden. heck i even contimplated it at one point.

At least he's the only one making assumptions like that this time. Everyone else is whining about gun control. Almost as stupid.

Take away legal use of guns, and people still have all sorts of blades, blunt objects, and of course, their bare hands to kill someone with. OMGZ ban teh hands!!!

Hadoken_Kid

You have to admit it's a lot tougher to kill 33 people with your bare hands.

And getting in a car and driving down the sidewalk of a city is easier than pulling a trigger and will probably maim and kill more. Should we outlaw vehincles? No. It is not a gun control issue. It could actually be used to make a case for more lax gun control. If a responsible gun owner with a concealed carrying license was armed in one of those class rooms, the shooter would have had a much harder time. If you could freeze time and put a gun in one of those students hands before they were shot, would you? I hope so.

 

this is the excate reason why i belive in carrying a gun in public.

And you don't see how that contributes to the problem? Arming everyone arms the psychopaths and the morons too.

Giving everyone guns does not instantly make them all responsible law-abiding people. There are people with the capacity to kill out there, and the only thing stopping them is having no access to guns.

I mean... do you realize what you're supporting? Or are you some 15-22 year old male who thinks they know what they are talking about.

everyone has the capitcy to kill.

 

what is there to stop someone lets say like me for example to walk into a movie theater when your watching spiderman 3 and blow your brains out (not saying that i am or not threatening you just proveing a point)

 

I have a gun and it is not that hard to get one the cold reality is if that situation was real what would you do ? just sit there and die?

if people want to kill people they will do it guns or not also. i could kill more peoplewith my car then i could with a gun.

what i support is giving power to everyone not a select few so people can defnd themselves.

 

it would have been near impossible for that guy to kill 33 pwoplw and injured 26 more if only 1/4 of them had a gun.

 

kids in colege should have guns expecially on campus. sometimes if someone just has a bad day they can kill even just 1 person in the heat of the moment. like yourself lets say you lose your job, Girlfriend, you wreck your car if your girlfriend comes over with her new boyfriend in that mindset and something happens and the guy wants to fight won't you probally get set off and shoot him maybe just on instiinct? not saying you will but with somepeople 1 bad day and them having a gun can equal doom even if they have no mental illness history.

then outlaw cars or even pencils or sciccors.

Pencils and scissors and cars are needed by people, guns are not. A massive clampdown by the government on guns is what is needed, rid them out of society completely. The gun is designed with only one purpose in mind and that is to kill, it does not benefit society in the least.

guns are needed by people, if the goverment took away all guns legally from civilan hands. the miltary and police would still carry them and people would get them ileaglly anyway. you would only weaken our society.

lookat russia is thier less crime in russia then america, NO. does the govt outlaw weapons there yes.

 

Oh you want to play the comparison game. EU nations have outlawed guns over a century ago, maybe if the US followed the EU example it would have less gun crime... NO?

And in the Wild West when basically anyone could carry weapons, crime rate was lower in America. I'm glad you're helping me make my point. The problem is not a lack of gun control, it's a current cultural problem that's spreading. You'll see.

It is a cultural one mixed with easy access to guns, makes for the US predicament you're in today. As long as you think guns aren't one of the problems there will always be shootings like we've seen in the US recently.

It's nice to see american arms companies making a nice profit selling to home and international buyers. One of the reasons why there will be no banning of guns in the US, too many US companies make huge amounts of money out of it.

Wow, that's called a vigilante, and he'd be breaking the law. The fact is guns are not needed by ordinary people, knives and cars are. The only people who should carry guns or even have access to guns are those who are given the right to use them. There's a reason why carrying guns around is illegal, unless you want to make that legal and let everyone have access to guns. But then you'd also have to give them the right to shoot them, and then in what circumstances would shooting a gun be right? Your concept of "responsible people" carrying guns is a bit weird, I thought that was what the police was for, (although some of them aren't exactly "responsible").

 

Actually, with a license, carrying guns is perfectly legal, it just wasn't in this school. Vigilante? Who cares. It would have saved lives. Is this not what's important? Normal people have plenty use for guns. I have a .45. If someone tries to force their way into my house, it could just save my life. If I were a theif or murderer, I'd love the idea of gun control. I could get my illegal weapon and rest assured that my victims would probably have no defense.

that is what i am talking about gun control only helps those who would break the laws.

gun control doesn;t work but banning does. What did Cho say when he got his guns? it's for protection right? but did anyone know what he was gonna do with it? no he lied and if you have a good record then you can get one but somepeople won't and the ones usally getting them wanna kill someone and they lie for it. seems like America wants it's guns even if it means Massacares like this and the ones in the future. How long before the next shooting? who knows but as long as theres gun easly accesible to people then there will always be these types of Massacres. The thing wrong about the theory that if you ban them only the criminals will have them but the fact is there ammo won't be a robust since they got it illegal they may just get one clip or just a few bullets but since it's legal you can buy 200 rounds if you please.

What about the cultist gas bombing in an Asian subway? What about all the suicide bombers? No guns. 911 hijacking, no guns. As I said, in the wild west when guns were legal and plentiful, crime rates were lower. Your logic is just wrong. Yes he lied and said it was for protection, but any system will have flaws. There are people with drivers licenses that probably shouldn't have them. This kid wanted to kill. Do you have any idea what the true problem and cause of this is? It's surely not guns. That's almost as silly as saying video games caused it.

dont try to bring up age as in trying to insult someone for there belives.

 

I am old enough to hae a license for my weapons and i can carry them.

GL to you and your family or future family and i hope no harm comes apon them because they couldnt defend themselves.

he's right though you don't know when someone is gonna attack so you might have a gun in your pocket someone comes and shoots you before you even can react and as he said what good is the gun then. no person with a gun is gonna yell hey i have a gun then pull it out they pull it out point it and shoot this isn't the Wild Wild west anymore people need to grow up thinking there cool cause they have guns. Funny thing is most people who play shooters wanna buy a gun all of a sudden. heck i even contimplated it at one point.

but it increases my chance of surrival, maybe when you are attacked someday you will understand. and acutally i dont play shooters. i have a gun for protection and i believe every home should. if not everyone should carry one in public fine but i belive it is nesicarry for every home to have it.

Give me a link to the Wild West crime rates. I would like to see myself. I'm pretty sure that in absolute terms they may have been lower, with the smaller populations, but gun shootings were still probably quite high.
