Yeah, like in London [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

To me the end of guns is an utopia, because personally i think we should keep researching weapon technology pointed outwards to planet just in case, but we definately gotta stop pointing it at each other or else humanity probably wont last the next century or 2.

Sad thing is Obama will use this to further push his gun control agenda.
Using a bunch of people being shot to further gun control, how dare he link such completely unrelated things.

Gun free zones don't work. Deal with it.

Mass shootings are just a normal part of life we have to deal with in 'Murica.

if you want to ban guns to promote public safety, I can respect that. But since heart disease is the #1 killer in the U.S., I won't agree with your position until you campaign, as vehemently as you have against guns, against sugar, processed foods, and red meat. You guys apply different standards to different things and pretend you give a damn. If you cared about the lives of the average America, you'd be attempting to ban corporate food companies that are making this country obese by selling them processed garbage. Newsflash, you don't care about safety. You simply hate guns, because it's unfathomable that someone out there could see a gun as useful, when, as mentioned by Mace Windu above, your idea of utopia doesn't include them.

Would banning guns save lives? Most certainly it would. Like I said, however, fixing the American diet would save far more. The question that needs to be asked is whether we want our government in the business of telling us what to do, ostensibly for our own good, or are we capable as a society of making the changes that we need to make on our own.
