Your beginning to sound like Robert Barry. Get a grip on reality. The Littleton tragedy is one of the worst acts of random, senseless slaughter in suburban America and an initial sign that we have our own share of moral/social problems. Rather than spending 10 billion playing globo-cop in Yugoslavia we should be spending it internally on our own infrastructure problems.>>

I do believe nuke hit the nail squarely on the head, actually, except for one additional point. There is another parallel. Those kids in Colorado share the same lack of perception of consequences as the Serbs.

Just ban the wholesale distribution of rifles and you'll get less ''random'' massacres such as Colorado's... If you raise your kids with the Bible in one hand and an automatic rifle in the other, you should expect more casualties in the future.
And, while you're at it: stop knuckleheads such as Charlton Eston who've advertised for the NRA foolgang...
Rifles are supposed to make you free, aren't they? Indeed, they make you DEAD FREE!
