Hello! Is anybody in there?

This is a typical anti-gunner response to a horrific tragedy. Why do you people immediately want to ban hand-guns, or toughen the laws, or whatever...in a situation like this.

First, as far as I've heard, these cowardly little freaks only had long guns - I've heard no mention of pistols, but I might be wrong on this. So there goes your long gun theory.

Second, as far as I'm aware, it is illegal for persons under 21 to even by handgun ammo, let alone a handgun. There's also strict laws on posession for folks under 21. These guys were 18...

There's all sorts of laws restricting firearms as it is. Most of the time, if you examine a tragedy like this, you'll see that had the LAWS on the books been followed/enforced, the tragedy would never have happened.

So let's throw more laws on the books. Laws that will hamstring law-abiding citizens. Because you know what, some punk bent on a suicidal rampage doesn't give a rats ass about the laws.
