U.S. Shooting
Another US school shooting masacre…
Maybe it will start to become clear to them that:
“Guns don’t kill people… People who can buy guns at Kmart kill people…”
Surely they’ve worked out that their “relaxed” standard of gun laws isn’t really helping their citizens any…

I think that part of the problem is that there are already so many guns in their society that even if there was a government courageous enough to alienate (almost) half of their voters (NRA members or other 2nd ammendment advocates etc) by limiting the sale of firearms, there would be millions already out there.
It would certainly be a clear statement of intent though. Clinton backed down, I wonder if Obama will have a go (did you see how I threw in my prediction there)?

I’d just be happy if people would pull their head out and start to recognise that EVERYONE having a gun is not such a great idea… Surely they’ll see their folly… mmmmm…
Realistically, I don’t think that’ll happen even after a million school shootings… and probably not ever… which is very sad.

And I’m with you Pete. I think Obama’s got it in the bag.
I always thought Denzel would be the first black president… (sigh) Oh well…

I think I might start a Facebook group called ‘Basically uninformed Australians Who Would Like to See Obama in Charge of America’.
Maybe Denzel could be Vice-President, or some other office?
