Who do you think could be delighted at this terrible news?
Hitchhiking's more of a challenge on the road less travelled.

Indeed. The title of this thread is quite ill-considered.Originally Posted by joe552
This one was huge. Hopefully it gets law makers off their ass, and finally agree to pass some sensible gun control laws.
Not going to happen. The NRA has loads of cash to make sure politicians see things their way!!
And in America, politicians never say no to cash.
This kind of thing is virtually impossible to stop.
Oh no, it's definitely possible. Take the latest attacks in places like UK, Australia and Europe. They didn't involve fully automatic assault rifles.
Gun control works. It's pretty obvious.
Then you have the NRA coming out with arguments like we should give teachers guns, and all will be well. Yeah, the divorced, lonely 40yo sixth grade teacher. Let's give her a gun!
I wouldn't give the happily married 40 yr old 6th grade teacher a gun either.
I'm pro-gun control...and not an apologist for the NRA.
But don't fool yourself into thinking the NRA isn't a force to be reckoned with here in the US.
Oh, I know the NRA is a force to be reckoned with. Otherwise, Sandy Hook would have been more than enough to get some sensible gun control in place in the US.
You don't need to have a society where you can buy a semi automatic assault rifle from your local Walmart for $1000. That's stupid.
