[QUOTE=JCH;88243]There is nothing wrong with guns when they are used responsibly. Guns in the hands of a deranged guy like the shooter...completely different story.

I recently saw parts of the video and the pictures he sent to NBC, I also read his plays. The guy was nuts.

While his plays aren't outright "hey everyone look i'm insane" disturbed, they are obvisouly comming from someone who is not well.

The video on the other hand, and the pictures? Those are by the product of lunacy, plain and clear.

Leeroy you, your friend, and your friend's family are in my prayers.[/QUOTE

Guns are stupid. They serve no purpose other than killing people. If no one can get them, then no one has them. End of gun violence. Americans need to stop making excuses for the right to bare arms. It is an outdated idea that is no longer relevant. What are you scared of?

I don't know about you, but the guns that I own I use for hunting, target shooting, and if necessary, self-defense.
I don't think that it is a very good idea for you to attack the American Bill of Rights as well.

Also, your reasoning for there being guns is flawed. Guns serve many other purposes other than "killing people".

But, this is not what this thread is about. Sorry for the hijack.


Leeroy, my deepest condolences go out to you, and everybody involved in this tragic situation.

Well.....because it has been a right that almost anyone can buy a gun in a store, there are lots of guns in America.

Also, there are lots of crazy people in America.

You're right about the purpose of guns, they have a purpose to kill, or at least to stop in regards to self defense. I personally don't want to kill anyone who is breaking into my house, I don't know how that would sit with me the rest of my life. On the other hand, I would want to defend me and my people.

If you ban the sale of guns, the violence involving guns won't stop. America will never clear its land free of guns. Too many guns, too many people who don't care about law.

Because there are lots of guns and lots of crazy people who do not care about abiding by the law, there comes a relevant decision that is made by myself and I'm sure many of the others here on this board, and that is do I need one for protection?

I personally have grown up around guns and I have not ever thought about carrying one until the VT incident.

Because guns will always be here, the idea of carrying a weapon for protection will always be relevant.

Nice threadjack knucklehead, a little disrespectful if you ask me. Take your agenda to the politics forum.

Benjamin,
Sorry for the loss of your friend Matt and all who were affected by this tragedy. They are in my prayers.

Well, look at what happened in New Orleans and tell me guns are stupid. The government in many, in most cases cannot protect you. They can investigate your murder but they can't protect you.

If I were at a restaurant, a sidewalk cafe, a university, a mall, or anywhere else where a sonofabitch crazy bastard like this idiot walked in and opened fire, I would be able to defend myself, and I would. And maybe in the process I could cut short the mass murder.

And as for it being an outdated, irrelevant idea, you're so wrong in so many ways. Our guns also help protect our freedom; government fears an armed populace much more than an unarmed one. And by the way, learn how to spell, it is BEAR arms, not BARE arms.

Omg. What did we jsut say about hijak. Take your opinions on gun rights to the political forum. This thread is for talking about VT, not about gun rights. asshats.

Thank you all for your prayers, it is much needed and appreciated.

Lets not forget the tragedy, Leeroy I am sorry for your loss. I know as a university student it shook me up the idea of someone coming into class and shooting me and my friends as we take notes. The shooter was insane beyond belief, he planned the attaack out for months, someone should have caught that and sent him to an institution. Lets remember the victims, and ignore the killer because all he wanted with his media manisfesto was attention.
