Title: American high school shooting...again Post by: sonicyouth on Tuesday, March 22, 2005, 15:08:17 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4370617.stm
How fucked up is American society when 17 year olds can get their hands on a mini-armory and go on a ramapge like that? I've got nothing against people owning guns for hunting because it teaches responsibility and respect but there's something seriously wrong when this sort of thing happens nearly every other year in America. Out of interest, anyone here own a gun?

How a deadly weapon like a gun can be made freely available for sale is beyond me.

I kept it hidden in a cupboard until recently and missed a couple of gun amnestys (wanted to keep it really,just in case) then got a bit paranoid with all the harsher laws so chopped it up into small pieces last year. :cry:

They are using a 100-200 year old law in current times, just doesn't work, when will they see that? Title: American high school shooting...again Post by: Asher on Tuesday, March 22, 2005, 18:53:42 The whole control is messed up!

There's a fair amount of Americans who do understand that and realise it's a problem, yet just as many are clinging to outdated bollocks because of meaningless patriotic nonsense. "It's our constitutional right!" Title: American high school shooting...again Post by: DMR on Tuesday, March 22, 2005, 19:35:08 Let's not get self righteous about the USA. We released a cannibal unto society last week and didn't realise he wasn't fit to be released until he was caught with his mate's brain on a plate.
