Gucci has a good point. If we continue to regurgitate this childish mantra "people kill, not guns", let's just give everyone a gun to carry.
Surely that will eliminate all crime, right? That will give the average "hero" (cause everyone wants/thinks he/she is/could be a hero, right?) the ability to stop all the "crazy" people that do the killing.
Only half joking there. I might consider carrying if these extreme attitudes continue. It terrifies me the extremes people are going to to justify guns. Just admit it, you love them, that's it, there is no "logic" there. I love guns too, but I can't for the life of me come up with a reason why they should be everywhere.
Guns. One purpose. To Kill. Period.
[I used to chant that crap above, am a gun owner, etc., etc, but I've come 180 in the last few years as I've seen how many pointless deaths are caused by so many damn guns. People are stupid. Give stupid people a gun and there's death. No gun, then we just are left with stupid people. I'll take that]

Guns should be on the hands of authorities/army, in my opinion. I don't understand the need some people have to own a gun or the pleasure they get shooting them, unless you live on a shit hole of a country and you really NEED it, but in the USA? c'mon, you would do better if the civilians don't own guns.

Here's a thought. If someone is deemed to be mentally unstable: take away or suspend their gun use. Fair? That covers the mental health angle AND the anti-gun angle.
LOL. Do you think everyone in America has access to healthcare and mental health assessments?? Even if we did, do you not think that a person's health could change over time from "mentally stable" to "unstable"?? Are you proposing to raise taxes in America so that every single person in this country would be able to take a mental health exam two, maybe three, times per year??
I think you belong in a mental health hospital.

Way too close to home for me. Grew up in the next town.
Cliche to say it, but you would never think something like that would happen in that town. Condolences to the families involved.Complete fucking coward to kill children...

I don't want to be THAT guy,
but you think this is fucked up,
imagine living with the remorse after seeing the school your child goes to blown to piece by some neckbeard sitting behind a joystick 3000km away,
I rarely see the outrage about that,
also don't even try to make it like I do not care about these children, I'm sick to my stomach as I'm typing this, but I just can't discriminate

I grew up not too far from there, have all my family very close too...
This is just sickening.
Honestly, I'd be fine with 6 months of martial law and every single gun out there be confiscated. Every single one, legal, illegal, doesn't matter.
People will not change. We were born to hate/love/kill/die. Given the right circumstances we are all capable of horrible things. At least if guns are gone we'd get rid of 99% of the senseless massacres.
Impossible, of course, but damn, something has to be done about the easy access to massive destruction and death.

@CanHasQBN: Haha. It's not the first time I've been encouraged to visit one.

Outlaw and take away guns and people will still get them.
There's gotta be another way.- To just simply assume that "they will still get them" is ridiculous.CanHasQBN
- To simply assume they wont is even more ridiculous.dirtydesign
- to change something from "it's your right to own one" to "it's illegal to have one" will sure as hell deter people fromCanHasQBN
- wanting a gun and from wanting to deal with guns.CanHasQBN
- Go look at the gun crime rates in GB when they banned guns.CanHasQBN
- I'm not saying we shouldn't outlaw guns, I'm saying it'll never happen here.dirtydesign

You must be a sick fucking psycho when you're be able to kill children.

# melq - "But I genuinely cannot understand what is going on in the heads of 20-something men to cause them to do these things"
...'cause it's ok, like when they kill people playing Call of Duty or something.

To get a gun in Japan, first, you have to attend an all-day class and pass a written test, which are held only once per month. You also must take and pass a shooting range class. Then, head over to a hospital for a mental test and drug test (Japan is unusual in that potential gun owners must affirmatively prove their mental fitness), which you'll file with the police. Finally, pass a rigorous background check for any criminal record or association with criminal or extremist groups, and you will be the proud new owner of your shotgun or air rifle. Just don't forget to provide police with documentation on the specific location of the gun in your home, as well as the ammo, both of which must be locked and stored separately. And remember to have the police inspect the gun once per year and to re-take the class and exam every three years.

One comment on the photo - a friend saying he looked like "solid snake" or neo and that this could "This can only turn out awesome."
If this guy is the shooter that dude is fucked.
