They can have my (Fill in the Blank) when they pry my cold dead fingers . . .

Yup, blame it on the knife, gun , videogame, etc etc.

How about addressing the truth that people once in a while go batshit crazy and kill other people. Its not the weapon, its the crazy guy.

The only thing politicians like this successfully regulate is thought and the ability of an individual to defend themselves.

 

It fascinates me that our response to tragedies like this always takes a laser focus on the irrelevant bits of physical material involved and fails completely to even see (let alone try to resolve) the larger picture. So we get laws that forbid wearing red and blue striped t-shirt in banks because the last bank that got robbed was held up by someone wearing a red and blue striped t-shirt, and we don't pay any attention to the factors that persuade someone that taking the scary step of holding up a bank is the least scary option confronting him, and that if we could figure THAT out we might actually make some headway in reducing crime, because it sure as hell isn't red and blue striped t-shirts that are the problem.

 

amen, just outlaw the idiots. Maybe we need to institutionalize more people:crazy::boom:

 

You're right... we should outlaw everything because this happened in the ... US?...
