Why is it you always get gun massacres in the US? Than in any other country.
Get rid of the loopholes that allows idiots like Cho get his dirty hands on a firearms even although they knew he needed to see the white coats. That is ridiculous.
There's logic somewhere.
Heres the answer to all the shootings.
"In the vast majority of states, you walk into a gun store, you submit to the background check which takes five minutes -- and there is no background check for the magazines -- and you can buy as many as you want," said Rand.
Sorry but that is a joke, no wonder America is in the state its in with such lax legislation hell I could buy a gun over there no problem. The shootings will get worse, I can guarantee it.
I definately think there are too many gun nuts there, who are obsessed with guns. I like em but im not obsessed. That is unhealthy. I prefer bows anyday.
Why is it you always get gun massacres in the US?Â* Than in any other country.
Why is it people in other countries always want to try us how to run our country? When we decide we want the ridiculous gun control measures Scotland has, I'm sure we can send over a group to receive advice from your government. Until then, there's a reason why it's America, and not Scotland, that is season as the world's brightest beacon of hope for freedom. And much of that has to do with the personal freedoms are citizenry is granted.

[/align][/align]Scotland tops list of world's most violent countries
Violent crime has doubled in Scotland over the past 20 years and levels, per head of population, are now comparable with cities such as Rio de Janeiro, Johannesburg and Tbilisi.
The attacks have been fuelled by a "œbooze and blades" culture in the west of Scotland which has claimed more than 160 lives over the past five years. Since January there have been 13 murders, 145 attempted murders and 1,100 serious assaults involving knives in the west of Scotland. The problem is made worse by sectarian violence, with hospitals reporting higher admissions following Old Firm matches.
David Ritchie, an accident and emergency consultant at Glasgow"™s Victoria Infirmary, said that the figures were a national disgrace. "œI am embarrassed as a Scot that we are seeing this level of violence. Politicians must do something about this problem. This is a serious public health issue. Violence is a cancer in this part of the world," he said.
Detective Chief Superintendent John Carnochan, head of the Strathclyde Police"™s violence reduction unit, said the problem was chronic and restricting access to drink and limiting the sale of knives would at least reduce the problem. The study, by the UN"™s crime research institute, found that 3 per cent of Scots had been victims of assault compared with 1.2 per cent in America and just 0.1 per cent in ***an, 0.2 per cent in Italy and 0.8 per cent in Austria. In England and Wales the figure was 2.8 per cent.
Scotland was eighth for total crime, 13th for property crime, 12th for robbery and 14th for sexual assault. New Zealand had the most property crimes and sexual assaults, while Poland had the most robberies.
Chief Constable Peter Wilson, president of the Association of Chief Police Officers in Scotland, questioned the figures. "œIt must be near impossible to compare assault figures from one country to the next based on phone calls," he said.
"œWe have been doing extensive research into violent crime in Scotland for some years now and this has shown that in the vast majority of cases, victims of violent crime are known to each other. We do accept, however, that, despite your chances of being a victim of assault being low in Scotland, a problem does exist
