I thaught it was a bit sad... A lot of killings in highschools n' not alot of coverage about it.. at least not much being said about how to prevent, or why these tragedies where occurring...
Think it's time to get rid of guns floating around? Not just down town, in your own house as well?
Just pleading for a bit more sanity...

It is not the guns it is the people behind the gun. Education and safe storage needs to be taught, cause if they can't get guns it will be something else.

What do you need gun's for?
I've yeat to see a gun used in my life n' I'm really pleased with that arrangement. The onley one's who die around here is the "dopes"... another sad n' related misery.

While there are some good arguments for letting people have guns, I don't think that this is one of the best.
Can you imagine how things would have gone if the guy at Dawson College, or the one at that Colorado high school, or Columbine, etc., had tried to do what they did with a knife or a baseball bat?

It's time to change your view on gun's. More than 10,000 murders a year are related to gun violence in America. Less than a hundred gun related murders occures in Europe a year.

Maybe handguns should be more restricted. How did a guy without a life (job, school, etc) living with his parents at 25 in LAVAL got restricted guns ?
The problem is the person handling the gun. It has nothing to do with hunting guns (what the '95 law is about).
It's sad but we need to think about the problem with a clear head. The hunters don't have to pay for a psychopath and for the emotions of people in the cities who never handled a gun.... and for the electoral benefits it brings for the parties.

I think we both agree that Guns should onley be handeld by officials; police, military and hunters.
But if you are not one of these things and your livelihood does not depend upon it then you should restrain yourselfe from acquiring a gun.

Why should they restrain from buying a gun? I know it isn't America, but think of the 2nd Amendment and why it was created, then look at who you listed should have guns.

No, what I am saying is the the violent crime involving guns in the UK is quite high, and has been rising very rapidly.

Yeah, wounded 19 more, at least 2 of whom are still in comas. One of those will be a vagatable for life even she does come out of it, having been shot in the head twice.
I don't know how things are at your school, but at mine, if someone pulled out a knife and started going after people in the cafeteria, (a) they would run away from him, and (b) the assilant would have the living crap kicked out of him within 2 minutes.

I'm a hunter. I need a rifle to hunt.
I don't need a .357 mag to hunt.
Point.
You want to have an handgun to do competition or sport shooting ? Fine.
But you need to have a good background and a real reason to acquire this handgun.
