Shooting innocent children is the lowest thing a human can possibly do.😭

Seriously, people, if you hate the world so damn much, please take yourself out and leave innocent people alone! If you are too much of a coward to do that, then go live somewhere rural and engage yourself in manual labor to give your idle mind and hands something to do besides festejr.
Can you IMAGINE waking up the day to ready your kids/yourself to start your another day in life, eating your breakfast, locking your house, getting into your car and perhaps thinking about the weekend, and the holiday gifts... without ever knowing that it will be the last of everything and you wouldn't return home tonight?<img src="http://forums.redflagdeals.com/images/icons/new/smilies/thread-sad-16.png" alt="" />

Wow, just thinking about it makes me emotional. I think we often take our life's for granted and always think that things happen to others but wont to us; unfortunately this is the sad reminder of the current state of our lives. We should be thankful to each and every moment we share with our loved ones and take things in stride.

My condolences

Almost regularly innocents are killed in USA but the craziest people are so arrogant and egoist that they will not change their system to ban the right of having weapons.. 

It is not right of protection, it is the license to kill !! Shame to this country!!

As an American, I am embarrassed and upset about the gun violence in our country. With shootouts being so common and frequent, something has to be done. On a personal level, I am against guns. I most likely will never own one or allow anyone to have one in my house. However, I don't think banning weapons is the right option. Our constitution gives us the right to bear arms. It is in our bill of rights and we cannot strip citizens of something so fundamental.  We have to remember guns don't kill people, people do. Knives, rocks, cars, anything can be used to kill people should a person so desires. Nations like Canada and Switzerland have far lax gun control laws but witness less crime. In fact Switzerland has the highest guns per capita in the world with many people having cabinets full of guns, but some of the lowest crime rates. The problem more than gun control is society and culture in the United States. We definitely do have a long way to go in learning responsibility and compassion.

Why do you always make such sweeping hateful statements about a country though? A few days ago you said similar things about Australia as well. It is racist to make hateful statements about an entire population like that. You need to recognize that every nation has good and bad qualities.
