I know what you meant. I firmly believe that US should look very closely at their firearm legislation but not in the way the pussies in the Labour government did when they thought they could trade on the emotions of the British public to earn a few Brownie points. The Swiss prove that a country can have high firearm ownership and low firearm crime rates.
Guns don't kill people. People kill people. That is the issue that the US needs to look at, but even if it is addressed I fear it won't completely prevent a similar event in future.
