ok, well if we're "thinking carefully" -- how many people died at columbine or other school shootings with legal guns? Now compare that to how many people are killed in robberies, gang murders, drive-by's, hits, etc with ILLEGAL guns? I'm gonna put my money on illegal guns having a higher death count than legal ones...

yes but this thread is about another school shooting, and im betting these gun/s were aquired legally.
|
but you think "making guns harder to get a hold of" would be warranted even though the vast majority of gun killings are most likely with illegal guns? Seems to be targeting the wrong problem.

just because if the crackdown (if one was to take place) didnt halt the people that got the weapons illegally, wouldnt it at least be worth it to stop things like this where kids etc get hold of weapons via weapons that were aquirred legally to stop stuff like this happening? if kids like these at columbine were not able to get some legally or from parents odd ones laying around then they aint going to be able to get ahold of them unless they are connected to the mafia.
guns were made for killing have no mistake about it, so less of them about the less murders. simple math.
