OH yeah I agree with your whatifs, in fact it is an ongoing joke of mine that spree killers do not doe very well, I think I could score in the low thirties by just running down towns main street with a sword.

But the acts are made easier when a tool such as a gun which is only designed to kill is so readily available. I guess the issue is far more complex, it's not as simple as just banning guns or having better controls, it is about society as a whole in a lot of ways.

I am often reminded of FUTSIES which are people in the Judge Dredd world who flip because of the pressure. I honestly don't think we as humans are supposed to be living the way we do.

Therein lies the problem. Why are we seeing this level of acting out as compared to, say 50 years ago? Same country, same Constitution; what in society contributes to more mass shootings? I don't have an answer because I don't have enough relevant information to have an opinion. But it is a discussion that should be happening now.

Society is evolving too fast for us I think, and we are seeing a rise in mental health issues, I don't know what the solution is, but yes discussion is important.

I know a number of people who think we should 'go back' to a happier smaller group time, but I don't see how that would work. I do know that I found out breaking up with my wife, that I have hundreds of face book friends, but very few friends I could rely on for support.
