This is incident number - which one since the famous elementary school shooting short time ago? Fourth? Fifth? Sixth? There is no calm, no patience in modern life anymore. Numbers are galloping, everything is going so fast, everybody is in stress and hectic - it is difficult to keep up with events.
Obviously, there are not enough weapons in the hands of people to keep other people with weapons in their hands in check. The conclusion is easy and recommends itself. There must be more weapons sold. Make the freedom to own weapons a mandatory obligation by law! That helps jobs, and the state could boost the economy by helping sales with tax reliefs and financial aid programs for the dispossessed and the poor people who else could not afford a gun. One village had made gun owning mandatory and claimed a drop in crime, some years ago, and we all know how criminal public spaces and school have become these days. With that in place nationwide, people can peacefully sleep again, knowing that all the violent movies and the culture of violence being celebrated and all the fear mongering and weapons fetishism cannot do any more harm. First thing I'd do if I would start a life in the US, would be to go and buy me a weapon. Heck, I would do that even
before I get my passport from the guy at the pointed end of my gun!
137 lethal school shootings in the US from 1980 to 2012. And that is just
school shooting incidents.
