i could kill al ot of people with out a gun. i could use C4, a samuri sword, a chicken, my own hands, etc. take guns out of the equation and the only thing different is that people will have to be more creative. besides, he had an automatic weapon. those are already banned. so obviously, people will still be able to get guns. so y would u tke that right away.

AND that would be fucking with the constitution.

this is extremely, extremely upsetting to me. i live about 45 mins away from lancaster county, and have spent many visits there. visiting amish farms is absolutely breathtaking. they are the best of the best at cooking, crafting, woodworking, and everything else imaginable you can think of. i cant believe someone would pick such simple people with an amazing heritage and way of life. they are not viloent people at all, and i doubt they were ready for somethign like this. rip to the girls who died and best wishes to the survivors

Dude, people WITH GUNS kill people. A gun is an easy way to kill other people, if they have a knife and take somebody hostage its ALOT less dangerous (and police ect. will have an easier time taking him down) yeah, getting rid of all guns is impossible, which is a fucking shame.

no it's not a shame. war veterans fought for that right and there are tons of people that would agree with me. the guns didn't fire themselves, somebody had to fucking pull the trigger so don't tell me guns kill people

I was sitting in Subway on my lunch break from work, eating a tasty sub, and heard the breaking news, first report, and it literally ruined my whole entire day.

I cannot believe people. The amish are peaceful people. They are bigtime pacifists, and do not force their way of life upon people whatsoever.

And for someone to just go slaughter young girls who are completely innocent is just completely disturbing. You hear about how it was done, and I literally got angry, and resentful about the world today, and the entire state of it.

You're a dipshit. You DO realize innocent people are DYING because of people with guns? Do you watch the fucking news and hear about the school shootings? yeah, I guess the innocent hostages who die because of that are pussies too.

what if everyone had a gun?

then everyone would be able to defend themselves, and it would be less likly for a person to shoot you knowing that you could shoot them back.

yes i have read the news. there are many people with guns that don't harm anyone so not everyone should be punished with guns being banned. also this guy had an automatic weapon which is already illegal. that means he couldn't have it gotten it at a normal gun shop. he would have had to gotten it illegally

Taking away guns from the public only leaves guns in the hands of criminals, and law enforcement.

Majority of guns used in crimes are illegal possessed already. Do your reaserch before you talk down on a topic.

And it is true that violent crimes increased dramatically once they outlawed all gun possession.

If you can figure out a way to melt EVERY single firearm in the whole entire world, and be absolutely sure that noone will ever be able to get their hands on a gun ever again; including the government, then i am all for eliminating firearms.

And don't start screaming about the government needs weapons. If all the people don't have guns, then why do they?
The government should fear the people. The people shouldn't fear the government.

This was a total tragedy. And that is that.

you're an idiot. If ALL guns were band NOBODY would be getting killed, yes, alot of people could get them illegaly, but it would still limit accessibility. It sucks it has to be that way, but obviously there is alot of people too irresponsible to have guns availible to them.

what i learned from a very smart health teacher, people who carry knives or guns in school are scared. those "gang members" are scared, thats why they hold weapons. it makes sense, think about it.
this is irrevalant to the convo though
