"And proof-positive evidence that you do not possess the ability to fully think through your positions."

Ahem, aren't you the guy who told us GE was a major financial institution just days ago?!...talk about thinking through one's position!...I agree with blaming parents, educators, etc AS WELL AS easy access to guns...haven't heard too many cases lately of 10 or 20 people getting knifed in a day at a school, or too much about molotov (not malotov as you indicate) cocktails being thrown around town...KIDS have easy access to guns and the fascination with them far outweighs a kid's fascination with most any other weapon and a Saturday Night Special has a whole lot more kick and ability to maim and kill a boatload of folks vs. getting poked with a knife.

Further, to note how clueless you really are on the issue (uh oh, I'm conjuring up that GE thing again), pipe bombs (30 homemade explosives, crude hand grenades and a propane tank with explosives) were in fact used in the Columbine massacre, in addition to one TEC DC 9, modified, semi-automatic pistol, one sawed-off double-barrel shotgun, one sawed-off pump-action shotgun, and one 9 mm semi-automatic rifle...and all were as easy as pie to get access to.

Are you familiar with the Eddie Eagle program sponsored by the NRA?...kinda like Joe Camel selling guns to youths.
