yeah, I live in America and proud of living in America. I don't own a gun or care about people owning them. Psychos will try to find a way to make themselves famous for going on a rampage and then killing themselves. Which is why this school shooting happened. Taking away guns because Psychos abuse won't do a thing. They'll go onto knives, (In fact some guy wounded 22 kids in China at a school with a knife, yes I know it's wounded but a Knife is just as deadly as a gun if used properly). The real problem is the media glorifying the killer. I don't mind glorifying the victims. But the media is at fault. I don't mind news like "Oh, We found the cure to cancer" or "Some guy completed the world's largest free fall" Sometimes the news has to get out because it's interesting, of course I don't wanna see a headline like what happened last friday. But if you gotta tell the world then I understand. Just as long as you don't glorify the killer. The Media is at fault.
This will probably be the last time I'll talk about the subject.
There are actually other problems the gov't has to face right now anyway. Like not starting the next recession with this fiscal cliff nonsense. (Basically Taxes will go wayyyyy up for mostly everyone in the US and the gov't will have a very low budget)
Besides it would take 8 months for something to get passed involving the ban of guns which I don't see happening because the gov't is so deadlocked and soooooo much to the left and sooooooo much to the right for both sides right now. I wished that there was a third party involved
