Um, wat? Are you serious? What on earth has any of this got to do with some lunatic shooting up a school now? Do you really think that's what was going through his mind at the time? Give me a break.
Sure, guns are readily available here, and they're often used to commit crimes. But if you think crimes like this are committed because of the Civil War and the KKK ... well, I'm sorry, but you sound crazy. There are plenty of other, much more plausible reasons for the rise in frequency of this type of crime. We don't need to reach that far.
I suppose next we'll discuss how this was all planned by the Illuminati.

It was not by chance that the NRA formed at the same time as America's first Ku Klux Klan movement was under pressure to re-invent itself as "rifle groups."

Well, if you take a moment to look at
U.S. crime statistics, you'll see that that plan failed miserably. But It's easy to see how what happened in Florida will help turn things around for the NRA and KKK. :|
I mean, really, who the hell takes stuff like this seriously? SMH.
