I'm a gonna say it.

Extensive. Gun. Control.
If the kids had had guns, there would have been no problem.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Fuck off with the politics in this thread
Sounds like this asshole had an assault rifle.  Civilians just shouldn't fucking be allowed to own that shit.  This is the only time those weapons are going to be used.

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Language. Any discussion about how to prevent similar stuff in the future is going to be about politics.

Looks like you don't get it. This is not the time or place for scoring political points.

I didn't see any news reports suggesting he used an assault rifle. :hmm:

There was just a mass stabbing at an elementary school in China.  Care to guess how many Chinese students died? 

I really don't want to hear about how this doesn't have anything to do with politics.  This has everything to do with gun control. 

AP is reporting that he had this:

I don't get the hype over assault rifles anyway (I presume by 'assault rifle' we are talking like an modern infantry weapon here, right?).  In the hands of an amateur inside a building a shotgun would be by far the most dangerous weapon.  Even a handgun, people like this guy are not sniping from the UT Tower they are shooting from just a few feet away, a AK-47 is not really some big uptick in effectiveness in those circumstances.

I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Seriously. As Obama's spokesperson said - this isn't the time for politics.
