DZJ 0 #52 April 16, 2007 Predictably, this incident has been used by both sides of the argument as a club with which to beat the other side with. Rather than continue an unseemly tit-for-tat, does anyone have any workable ideas about how this sort of thing might be prevented in future?

JohnRich 4 #53 April 16, 2007 QuoteI have a feeling that the Brady/anti-gun people are going to jump on this like crazy. They don't have any facts yet, but the Brady bunch is already calling for more gun control to solve the problem (whatever it might turn out to be): "Details are still forthcoming about what motivated the shooter in this case to act, and how he was able to arm himself. It is well known, however, how easy it is for an individual to get powerful weapons in our country. "...we've done nothing as a country to end gun violence in our schools and communities. If anything, we've made it easier to access powerful weapons. "We have now seen another horrible tragedy that will never be forgotten. It is long overdue for us to take some common-sense actions to prevent tragedies like this from continuing to occur."Source: http://bradycampaign.org/media/release.php?release=884 The NRA, on the other hand, has this to say: "The National Rifle Association joins the entire country in expressing our deepest condolences to the families of Virginia Tech University and everyone else affected by this horrible tragedy. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families. We will not have further comment until all the facts are known."Source: http://www.nraila.org/ Damn that evil NRA for immediately dancing in the blood of innocent victims for political purposes!

Rather than continue an unseemly tit-for-tat, does anyone have any workable ideas about how this sort of thing might be prevented in future? The ideas were already put forth in the tit-for-tat: 1. Engage in mass confiscation and destruction of all guns in the country; and considering the number of guns in existence and the inevitable mass non-compliance, wait at least 50 years before it has any measurable effect; or 2. Arm everybody, all the time. Anybody starts any shit, they eat lead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaVinci 0 #68 April 16, 2007 QuoteI'm sure the innocent people that were killed would wish that this guy hadn't been able to get his hands on guns. Just as I am sure that all those that have been saved by guns were glad they were there. Simple fact. People who wish to get a gun to do harm will get one. I am waiting to see if these guns were legally bought or not to make more comments. Right now however, I would guess they were not legally obtained.
