I noticed that, Sam, but my problem is that apparently these were semi-automatic weapons. If that's the case, there is the question of the availability of these kinds of weapons. Doesn't make sense.

The second is that the increasingly "guns are good" culture we are watching being created. Everyone should, somehow, have them, carry them in public. Any times there are mass killings, the argument goes there should be more guns for victims to defend themselves. No doubt we'll soon see the argument that if the principal of the school had a weapon she could have defended the school; or if teachers had weapons they could have done so.
