That being said he could have obtained one by other means if he was really determined to get his hands on one and his background check prevented him from getting one legally. maybe this wouldn't have happened. maybe it would've. who knows

Of course he could get his hands on a firearm if he really tried. But thats the point of gun control. Reducing the risk. Making it inconvenient to harm with firearms (sadly if they are really committed, forcing them to think of something else)
Autoloading firearm are far the simplest Way of killing lots of people quickly and when the urge strikes. I say start with restricting autoloaders, then make licencing involve references and membership to gun club or letter from game club or primary producer blah blah like we have here in Australia. It sucked when these laws first came in, but legit firearm owners have adjusted and no mass shootings.
Any changes in the US would take decades to work but you will never get there unless you start soon

Anyone opposed to gun control at this point is either getting paid to support the gun lobby or is horribly misguided. Do you realize when the second amendment was written?

Our government is useless.

Shortly after the first?

Masta it sounded like you just said that since you can't make it perfect, why try to make it better? Or rather, less bad?

All people want you to do is try and improve a $#@!ing horrendous situation. I don't think there is literally anything America could do, short of implementing The Purge for real, that could make things worse.

So why not just try something?

Nobody anywhere in the world cares that you all own a gun. Just stop being a nation of child abusers. Stop allowing sickos to murder, maim and traumatise your kids. Stop saying Thank You for your service to cops and soldiers who are paid to put themselves in harms way and are well capable of protecting themselves in their chosen career, and use the effort to ask your politicians to protect your most vulnerable in their classrooms.

I'm not even going to bother responding to your diversionary Britain, acid whatever bull@#(! thing it was you said.

The world to America:

HANDLE YOUR $#@!ING BUSINESS.

You should realize, Duck, that Masta is about to be mayor of his town. He's a really Big Dealtm who doesn't need a college-educated fop like you to explain to him how the world really works.

EDIT:

Also, dear world: Sure. First, can you handle yours? Taking care of it for you is starting to be a pain in our ass.

Regards,

The people who had to bail your asses out when the treaty of versailles fell through, just like we predicted it would.

Masta a 15 year old boy would not have shot his entire school if guns werent so easy to get, its a really simple concept

I'm not usually one to praise Europe, but we recently had several incidents of immigrants committing mass murder by truck. Did we try to ban trucks? Did we make truck drivers pass through a bunch of silly tests so their brother could drive?
Nope, instead we erected concrete barriers at vulnerable locations.

Following that example you guys could try to protect schools. Train interested teachers to be security guards at the same time and pay them extra. Or just go the traditional route and hire security.

Edit:
Of course what we did not do, is look at the reasons someone wanted to commit mass murder in the first place. Banning certain people with an aggressive ideology from entering our countries would not have been politically correct.
Equally, the US is extremely unlikely to do anything about the cause and think about school reforms, examining drug prescriptions, or whatever.
