    Don't let facts and statistics get in your way either.

    It seems shooting people in mass was very rare in AU well before the ban.

    Historically it seems, that's it's much more dangerous to be an Aborigine around white people then it is to be gunned down by a random psyco.

    The solution is to ban black people. Or men

    After all the Blacks and Men are banned in the U.S. It will be a right cheery place, what, no. Maybe just quoting statistics without how and why those numbers exist is mostly useless.

    Um, how do you keep people from buying lots of ammo a few rounds at a time?

    Small cartridges? They still kill you http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brenda_Ann_Spencer

    Or, you can do it the American way when things are outlawed. Import them from Mexico and Canada creating a huge profit black market where shitloads more people die then the original problem caused.

    Also, you seem to forget that people have been making ammo since way the fuck back when, so ammo production is possible. Yes, that may stop a lot of people from getting it easy, but there will be a profitable market to make and distribute it.

    Get some of that really thin stretch plastic wrap and line the key pad (if it's one of the flat shiny pads like some safes have). Wait till someone uses the safe. Pull off plastic and look for finger prints.

    Um, yea. A 20 year old can go buy ammo for the .223. Keeping the gun and ammo apart is useless in a situation like that. You must think that an adult is retarded not to locate both the gun and ammo over time (years maybe). We're not talking kids here.

    A. her son was an adult.
    B. We don't know what signs of illness he was showing and for how long.

    With A he could have premeditated getting the weapons for a long time. Safes need keys, it's highly likely he knew where they were. There is no such thing as keeping something safe in your own house against a motivated person. The fact he was willing to murder her is testimony to that, he could have very well bashed her head in an taken the keys.

    B is pretty obvious, he could have been showing signs like depression, but not 'i'm going to go the fuck off.'

    Yep, good idea, lets ban guns, because no one will ever just stab the fuck out of a classroom. It seems likely that the chinese guy wasn't trying to kill student, because a knife is very deadly if intended to be. Us Americans have a violence problem that is not going to be solved by banning anything. Every time something is banned we just seem to make a bigger more violent black market for it. I'm not sure what the solution is. I'd start with getting rid of the "OMFG it's the fucking end of the world, everyday" news we have to put up with. Hear that message everyday and you are apt to flip out, seriously, why keep on living if it's so bad. You'll get the depressed and insane thinking that they are doing the kids a favor by taking them out of this evil place.
