umm i saw a man shot when i was 11 and this was in a country with gun controls. I saved two people before i was 21 and i didnt have a gun. Do you want me to post a picture of me in uniform. the more guns there are the more deaths why it is a damn sight easier to shoot a bullet than stick a knife in someome.

From what I heard in a news discussion with this young man's aunt on tv last night...it's beginning to sound like he was strongly influenced by his own mother's gun cult survivalist paranoia...it is very sad indeed

As promised, I wore my green (and white) today. Not sure I can handle tv either, I feel like my eyes have been swolled up for days.

I was in Liverpool and met Peter. I can attest to what he says here. I know what people mean about swollen eyes. I was so happy to get to hug and hold my great nephew and niece yesterday and I get to do it again tomorrow.

making things illegal gets rid of them. Just ask Paul about drugs. This is a mental health issue more then a gun control issue.

Americans are as thick as shit if they would rather have "The Right To Bear Arms" instead of cutting down on these shootings. We have people in UK with mental health issues but if you give someone with Mental Heath issues access to guns things like this are going to happen. If people couldn't get guns easily it would cut down on these crimes. I was in the Police in UK and we didnt carry guns, but we still protected people and Americans always say they need guns for protection, but only because everyone has guns! We dont carry anything for protection in UK and i have never been in danger in my personal life. I am so glad i dont live in USA, it is a mad country!

It is a mental health issue. period.

You should see the south side of Chicago & I'm sure you have this too in Detroit KO. It is more gangs & little chicken sh!t punks that are doing drive by shooting & hitting innocent people & kids. The guns are not legal & there is not a mental health issue...it's just the fact that those punks will always find guns & will always shoot innocent people. PARENTS need to step up & start to have a concern about these kids.

Yep. I've seen it and lived through it. Those were illegal guns so making all guns illegal isn't the answer to the solution at all. It won't take weapons from the hands of these criminals. Strangely enough, witchcraft does deter them but NO ONE but the witches want to discuss that. Also a bit of American History for all of you: After the Columbine shooting, the US school system had hundreds of what was called zero-tolerance rules enacted in the schools to keep out guns and weapons. Sounds good, right? WRong. Thousands of kids were victimized by school administrations from cutting cakes in the cafeteria for a birthday party to possessing nail files in makeup kits or crochet tools for personal hobbies. Each of these children were denied an education and made into criminals for simple acts. I can't imagine that on a national level. Yes, there were parents who fought back with groups such as, "Enough is Enough" but this is what we don't want to see happen.

I can't either and I can't watch newscast without tearing up.

Here's the Examiner column about Julian's stance on gun control. Interesting how he isn't afraid to use the word 'crazy' in describing the shooter. He didn't mean to but using that term addresses it as the mental health issue it is

When The Constitution was written...Men had one shot flintlock rifles that took a minute to reload...and now...we have weapons that can kill 100 people in less than one minute...and are available to teenagers

Exactly and they did not envision what is available now. It's both a mental health issue and a gun issue. Nobody needs assault rifles. Nobody.

I just hope that we get to a point where the individual with that disorder is held responsible and the traits and stereotypes arent carried over to all with mental health issues. The vast majority are safe, honest just a little different love doris
