It's sad, I watched the clip earlier at work. But as far as gun control goes, it's moot at this point. If it wasn't guns it would be something else. People in general is the problem. Take away their guns, they'll use stones.

People are insane these days... Wait, let me correct that: people have always been insane but today's laws make it easier to live out that insanity. We have gun laws in Germany and just like weed laws won't keep people from smoking weed gun laws won't keep people from buying guns. If you want to, you can get a gun in no time anywhere in the world.

Veruc-sama, you gotta be one helluva bad ass to kill 11 people with stones. Not saying it's impossible, just not easy. I should know. Earlier today I killed 2 birds with half a stone. More to the point as a gun owner, I felt rather disturbed by how easy it is for people to acquire rather efficient killing devices. Also it's sad to see how little people are punished for violent crimes. I wonder what makes Americans seem more prone to these kinds of acts. Or is that just a perception? Well illusion or not we never should stop looking for ways to curtail and reduce these kinds of incidents. I propose introducing anime into the school curriculum at a very young age.

My assassin skills would prevail however, my thoughts regarding gun control, at least in the U.S., was for the sole purpose of arming a home militia should the government need be overthrown. With biological warfare at its finest, those militias wouldn't stand a chance. For personal use, be it protection or hunting, I cannot see guns being gotten rid anytime soon. I grew up in that kind of household and if I lived in a more dangerous place or felt threatened I might actually get a handgun though I prefer not to. But in this situation in particular, the guy went mad, wanted revenge on the station and took it out on one person I think he believed wronged him and her accomplice or the cameraman was just an innocent bystander who got in the way. He didn't have to use a gun for that, he just happened to have one. He could have walked up to them with a knife or katana. 15 years ago a pipe bomb would have been a popular option.

For some reason we're a violent bunch. I think we seem to be less happy than other countries.

Saw the video the shooter took himself on his cellphone. It's pretty horrifying how you can see he pulls his gun out and waits for the camera guy to film the reporter before starting the shooting. :/

I saw the video as well. To say the least it is a messed up situation when someone kills someone, but the way he staged it so it would be on TV / social media makes it more shocking.
