yeah I was watching MSNBC, and now there's a constituency pushning for regulation of the internet because apparantly this kid was communicating with hate groups via the internet. I'll comment when I know more about this.To us, it is the BEAST.

yeah because of posters like Thorn, Apolyton could be considered a hate group. Then the U.S. goverment will restrict Apolyton to everyone in the U.S.
This will force me to overthrow the U.S. goverment, allowing Canada and Mexico to conquer the U.S. The world would go into a serious economic depression.
so let's hope that does not happen.

I didn't know non-white people could be nazi's.
His photograph also shows a chubby (if not fat) kid who was apparently bullied at school. From what news reports have mentioned of his adulation for Neo-Nazism, it appears to be little other than ill-informed displacement or wish-fulfillment about 'Adolf being unafraid to take on bigger nations', and so on.
It's always much easier to focus on Marilyn Manson, horror comics, video games or Neo Nazi websites than on the availability of handguns or automatic or semi-automatic weapons and a bullying culture in schools.
He didn't kill the teacher, security guard and fellow pupils with Sim City, Pac Man, 'Mein Kampf', 'The Witching Hour', his laptop or Manson's cover version of 'Tainted Love'.Vive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.

Gian, you have no "right" to own a gun. The 2nd Amendment was to prevent a hypothetical tyrannical federal government from disarming state-controled millitias. It has nothing to do with personal ownership of weapons. It becomes obvious if you read the whole amendment carefully.
The sad thing about this is that it became legal to carry concealed weapons in public here just last year.
Did you know that the term "well regulated" meant well trained at the time that the constitution was written?
Here's the amendment:
A well-regulated (ie well trained) Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.
So the idea is that in order to supply a steady source of people who are familiar with weapons for the militia, the government will not infringe upon the people's (already existing right) to keep and bear arms.He's got the Midas touch.
But he touched it too much!

Plus I don't know if it's true or not but are most gun owners actually well trained in their usage/maintenance/etc..? Or is it just something they have hidden in a drawer just in case?

According to the latest news reports, this shooter drove to school in a police car and used a police gun. Gun control would have made no difference, as the police would still have guns in any case.
All of you who blamed a lack of gun control on this shooting can consider themselve PWNed."I'm moving to the Left" - Lancer

There's no knowing. However most people I know take very good care of thier weapons, as most people I know have them for hunting purposes.

Why do the people need guns still?"The DPRK is still in a state of war with the U.S. It's called a black out." - Che explaining why orbital nightime pictures of NK show few lights. Seriously.
