I don't get it, you Americans are far too obsessed when it comes to your guns. 30 kids died because of how easy it is to get something that is designed to injure or kill.

Wherever you like it or not, what Obama is doing is the right thing to do. I don't know why people need an assault rifle like the AR-15 anyway, if you need a gun for "self-defense", just get a pistol or a baseball bat, that would work fine anyway. Screw the NRA!


no 20 kids died becuase somebody wanted to kill them, it could have been with any weapon. the deadliest school attack in US history happened without a gun, the deadliest attack on US soil happened without a gun. These kids are dead people of a murdered intent of murdering. and they may be alive today if it werent for laws making it near impossible for the to be defended by the adults around them.

also an AR-15 is not an assualt rifle. it isnt even high powered. the bullet it uses, is used to varment hunt, in many places its illegal to hunt deer with it because its too small of a caliber. the AR-15 only has a bad rep because its a scary black plastic and metal gun. if it had a nice wood grain to it no one would care.

and saying you should only have a pistol to defend yourself with is extremely naive. tell that to the korean shop owners that defended themselves with AR's during the LA riots. tell that to the police officers son that shot and killed home invaders with his dad AR, and saved himselve and his sister. there are many other stories like this. 

look at the viginia tech shooting, he killed 32, more than this one. did he use an AR, no he used 2 pistols.

I don't believe for a second, those kids would of been any safer, if teachers could carry arms with them. Maybe less would of been killed, but i'm only happy when no one dies. My problem is that the guns used for the crime where legally obtained, but there is obviously no way he was checked first because if he was sane he would of never killed anyone without a  motive at all, especially innocent little kids like that. Do you think that community would ever want to see a gun ever again? I wouldn't. 

But you think i'm crazy that people should only carry pistols? Well in my country, the police don't even want to carry that and yet society is just fine here. Except for the austerity measures that is, which is stupid in itself, but that is another topic

Where are you from? And you just said the kids wouldn't have been any safer and then the very next sentence was maybe less would have died. No maybe about it. Far less would have died if teacher were to carry guns, the whole thing may have never happened if he thought he might be killed right away. Even if having a gun in the class room even saved one kid it would have been better than the full 20.
