[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to believe almost any minor involved in shootings at school had access to gun brought by an adult usually a parent.  So - with so many guns already owned by people not sure it's possible to actually limit arms.  Some for sure but not most.

The other factor is that there are SO many hubs in the street already and I do not see the day post Sandy Hook limits will ever be established to limit 2nd amendment rights in this country. Best case scenario is tighter background checks but that's not always going to catch the potential tragedies.  A better incentive is training in gun storage and shooting.  I think we need to also tie the threat of prosecution to parents whose kids may be offenders using their weapons.

I think ultimately the way to prevent these tragedies is developing communities that are aware, look out for one another and hopefully are lucky enough to find a warning before these tragedies happen.  There's not a lot of realistic options to prevent them from happening insofar as anti gun advocacy although of course I wish that could magically curb these kinds of events.

people used to say c*** like this about drinking and driving.  But you are wrong.  Culture can be changed.  We can give up worshipping guns and be a little less like Pakistan, a little more like England[/quote]
