Ohh boy, the liberal anti-gun establishment is already having a field day with this.  A gun did not kill those kids.  An evil man WITH a gun killed those children.  Without a gun, someone demented enough to kill 20 kindergartners would have found another way to visit misery upon those people. 

Guns are not evil, people are.  Guns are no more evil than a car is in the hands of a drunk driver.

i dunno, that Chinaman who slashed 20 kids at a school today didn't seem very successful at killing anybody

not that I think guns are inherently evil or anything, but it's a hell of a lot easier to kill a bunch of people with a gun than, well, anything else besides explosives or some other weapon like a bioweapon

The "guns don't kill people" is a ridiculous justification.

By that rationale, bombs don't either - can I have those as well?

Many of the guns that are legal in the US are, as far as I can tell, made to make it easier to severely injure and/or kill another human being. No?

Fine if you take advantage of them. People who seek help are looked down on though.

Wait, wait, has 'that awkward moment' now replaced the word 'ironic'?

Besides this, what's your point? Norwegians don't get a say because the worst of a type of largely random event (which we've decided to use to talk about gun control) happened in their country? If so, American exceptionalism really has gone too far.

Naw, its just easier to commit school shootings with a gun than a car. Especially when the driver is to drunk to find the school. Also isn't it illegal to drink and drive.

So they're broken.

Fix that first. Big, big drain on society if you don't have a proper one.

So is ours. And we've been doing a shitload of work to fix ours.

I love how all the foreigners look down on America from their supposed moral high horses, but if they had as easy of access to guns as we do they would all be gun owners.

It's also illegal to pull a gun and shoot down 20 kids too. Didn't stop that dude from doing it too.

This solidifies it. The whole account is a troll. Excellent feigned anger. Needs to rely a little less on such common arguments given your post history. Know your audience.

It strikes true so you call me a troll because you have no counter to my argument.  You honestly know in your heart most of the morons on this site that constantly say how horrible guns are would own several given that firearms were as cheap and readily available in their neck of the woods.  YOU KNOW THEY WOULD, don't even shit me and say they wouldn't.  We're on a website built upon a game built upon GUNS for fucks sake.

I support making all guns illegal, then no one will have them. No one has ever been able to obtain things that are illegal. I can't believe people are so resistant to creating a perfect society.
