27 dead at Connecticut school, including 14 kids

Fuck.

Yes, yes.. it's all the fault of the inanimate objects (i.e. teh guns) and not a mentally deranged psychopath. Of course if guns were banned he's have to do something else.. like make a bomb from household chemicals or something.

Which is someone more likely to pick up impulsively and use?

[Jason]

Psychopaths are very motivated and often take the time to carefully and deliberately lay out their plans. See shooting at Batman movie for example

I'm sitting in a nice downtown Manhattan cafe, and I was just thinking what a beautiful day this is. Then I saw this on Twitter.

What a horrible day this is. Kids. Fucking kids. I can't even.....

One problem is that gun advocates will always blame the shooter and say we need to enforce existing gun control laws so they aren't sold to nutjobs. But that's unrealistic; most of the time we can only identify a nutjob after they've done something like this.

Technological advances on the not too distant horizon could allow impulsivity to mesh with easily obtainable massive household energies.

If what you say is true we would be seeing psychopaths going on rampages all around the World in countries with strict gun laws using bombs made from fertilizer and such. Yet we don't....

5,000 kids are killed each year in the US by firearms - more than all the other first world nations combined

Your argument, sir, is idiotic in the extreme

nother right wingding doesn't get it.

Wrong. Psychological profiling. It works.

So your argument is to remove the tools and leave the problem? Smart.

[cronus]

Violence in the media entrains the susceptible into these ways of thinking. Face it, American media resolves a lack of clever story makers by special effects and blowing things up.

[macdoc]

They are not tools - fuck off with the euphemisms....they are deadly weapons that have no place in modern society.
Usual gun lover crap spewing forth,

[Animavore]

Fucking parasite!

[Coito ergo sum]

the terrified kids were saying, "I just want Christmas…I don't want to die. I just want to have Christmas."

Those poor little kids...

Holy crow, the nightmares and the awful memories. Scarred for life.

...wish I could piss on this monster...if only he was alive so that they could send him to prison and put him in general population. Dying quickly was too good for him.
