Im pro second amendment. I believe in the right to bear arms in this country. Though I think more can be done to prevent mentally unstable individuals from getting access to certain weapons. My sister goes to that college and over joyed to hear she's alright. My thoughts go out to the victims families

What is actually irritating it that it always takes a tragic shooting like this for us to all stop and re-examine gun control. What's even sadder is nothing will change because we love our guns too much. It's embedded into our very culture. When I was in Social Responsibility our social issue was gun control. We had to create a publicity campaign. Our main goal was making gun classes mandatory and passing a test to obtain a licence for ALL states. In this process a background check is done. Much like if you were obtaining a drivers licence through the DMV. My argument was that a car is a deadly weapon that is a huge responsibility you take in regards to public safety when possessing it. A fire arm should be exactly the same in regard to who can have the right to have it. It should be more a privilege, not a right for all. Those were, and are my thoughts.

All it took was 1 massacre. Just one in my country. And our conservative government that's equal to the American Republican Party, brought in strict gun laws. I'm against the second amendment. I have been for a long time. Before Sandy Hook occurred. You can do programs to try and slightly prevent sick minded people from getting their hands on guns but it won't work. They can easily get a gun from somewhere. America's gun laws are sickining. I have a lot of close friends in Amercia, one had a shooting at her school when she was at exchange at my university earlier this year. Nothing is going to change unless the Republican Party and NRA become anti guns.  |

Literally at uni yesterday in the middle of class, the emergency sound system went off and we were all told to evacuate the building immediately. Everyone was sprinting out the door with their shit and we were told to get away from campus and everyone's first thought was "there's a fucking shooter."
Apparently, all it was was something had caught on fire in one of the rooms, but it was maintained.
This is the country I live in. People Constantly paranoid due to mindless acts of violence by pieces of shit like this shooter. Something really, really needs to be done.
I appreciated what Obama said in his speech, that "thoughts and prayers are not enough." How many more tragedies need to happen before things change?

What the hell is wrong with people these days?! Seriously, more actions really need to be taken to prevent crazed people from getting access to dangerous weapons and attacking innocent people.
My sympathies, thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their families.

Why is the media more focused on what celebrities are saying than the disaster itself? Also, Cole is the only one who spoke about the cause of the problem rather than just saying it was a sad occasion. It shouldn't be controversial to say guns are bad.
My prayers go out to anyone who lives in areas with that kind of gun control.

My prayers go out to anyone who lives in areas with that kind of gun control. because no one actually really cares about the victims families. They care about getting good stories. That's the sad truth. And I totally agree dude. I mean why not try going to the crime scene and talk to actual witnesses? |

Alcohol was banned in our country during the 1920s and it did more harm than good. If guns were banned completely it wouldn't fix the problem. More shootings would still happen. And when the cops arrive late to a home from invasion, theyll more than likely find the residents dead cause of having no means of protection. Im against gun violence, but I also try to look at both sides. Cause either way, they're will be consequences which people never really stop and think about. Also my cousins were involved with the whole sandyhook shooting. People they knew well were killed that day. They all went to that school years ago |

I think along with way more stricker gun
laws this country also needs to take mental health more seriously I mean the guns don't just pick themselves up and decide to go on random shootings its the people behind the guns pulling the trigger that are at fault.
Action needs to actually start being taken because its always the same cycle a tragic shooting happens, people talk about gun control then it sort of goes away until the next one happens it's ridiculous.

Also I wish it were possible to ban guns, but like I said what you need to take into consideration is what happens as a result of that. Will the problem really get any better? And what other rights are we basically letting the government take from us? Who knows maybe banning guns will be the best thing. Or maybe it will be one step closer to Nazi Germany all over again. These are things we as a nation need to consider.
Lastly, I believe the media stretches the truth a lot. There were reported shootings that weren't shootings at all. They were in fact stabbings. Mainstream media is controlled by government to an extent, and they will lie to us to keep us ignorant of the truth.

Its crazy whats going on!
And I can totally get what Adele was talking about, if an alarm goes on and everybody think its a shooter. Its sad though.
I´ve heard the Obama speech too. He´s right. Prayers aren´t enough, there need to be changes.

Mainstream media is controlled by government to an extent, and they will lie to us to keep us ignorant of the truth. I have to agree with you about fire arm sells shifting more into under ground black market if they were possibly deemed illegal or further restricted. As it stands now, a lot of fire arms are already sold online, and what's even worse with this process, is there is no way of tracking the guns serial numbers a lot of times, or administering background check as private sellers aren't actually held to the same stipulations as licensed fire arm dealers and shops. One thing though, is these mass shootings aren't usually done with just a simple pistol or some form of a concealed hand gun, but done with an arsenal of fire arms. Such as automatic weapons and military style riles and just really nasty stuff in general. This is where I think it gets out-of-hand for the population. In my opinion, I don't think we should have access to though kinds of weapons. They serve one purpose, and that is to kill a lot of people. I don't think our government is trying to take away our rights. I sometimes feel like that is a scare tactic that gun enthusiast and organizations such as the NRA preach. I just think that what we need to do is practice sacrificing a little more, for the great good of our humanity. How can we expect to see any change, if ideologies and circumstances don't? If that is the case, then we all have to admit that we have become comfortable with the way things are. If you add up how many innocent people have been killed in mass shootings over roughly the last 40 years in the US, it equals close to how many people died in 9/11. www.jsonline.com/watchdog/dataondemand/165757356.html To me, that is a sad truth. Firearms are responsible for roughly 67 percent of all homicides in this country. www.justfacts.com/guncontrol.asp I think that for once we need to example other countries that already enforce strict gun control. As I said though, our culture is gun happy and I even think most my other family members go the other way on this issue, as my oldest brother has one. When he left our house about a year ago, he took it with him - I was glad to see it leave our property. Guns do not make me feel safe one bit. |

When he left our house about a year ago, he took it with him - I was glad to see it leave our property. Guns do not make me feel safe one bit. I absolutely agree with you on banning assault rifles and such. The one thing I don't agree is banning guns 100 percent. We don't live in countries like Europe or Asia. It doesn't work here. That's one of the reasons why I can never be a Democrat cause a lot of them want to take away the right completely (looking at President Obama). Not all, but some do. So yeah Im for banning military weapons. But certain things like hunting rifles the government needs to stay the fuck away from. This shootings rarely occur down south as they do up north. And if they do, it's not by an individual from gun crazy family. Most people who shoot up schools tend to have never held a gun in their lives. People from hunting families are taught from adolescence that these aren't toys and they use them responsibly. Up North, were very ignorant of that fact. |

There are hardly any shootings in Australia, it's extreamly difficult to get a gun here and if you a caught with an illegal gun you are pretty much sent to jail. My country is proof that gun laws work. It's completely different to the days of prohibition. I don't under stand why America and Americans believe that banning guns will cause more gun violence. It does the complete opposite. |
