Almost 20 people are dead, the media will report this naturally and ofcourse when these types of massacres happen there is fear, paranoia and many other natural responses. They hype up the issue in an effort to grab views this is nothing new and I'm pretty sure everyone realises this by now. I'd add that these school shootings dont happen on this scale in other countries but there are no other nations that have 3 guns floating around for every 1 citizen. America has a gun problem..I dont think you could really even argue that point. Sharing a continent with the US it's just sad to keep hearing about this every month and absolutely nothing is done to even try to stop it. People even say if there were more people with guns they could be used to kill the bad people with guns and that's just sick logic. We'll be here again soon and I can't buy, believe or contemplate that the govt is behind these incidents in an effort to control or mislead ppl into seizing their weapons. We have guns in Canada too but most are used for hunting and gun control is pretty tight as far as getting them and storage and safety here. We're not complaining that our govt is trying to take away our rights they're only using common sense and practicing due diligence to restrict weapons that are used to kill ppl. It's just far too easy for people with clear mental problems to grab a gun in the US and head out to murder innocent people, people can spin it anyway they want but that's only a distraction from the issue that kids are being killed at alarming levels in America and more needs to be done to protect innocent lives
