There was no constitution and no laws in the 1940s?
I get the point, though...and it's true. There's no longer any good reason for civilians to own weapons (if there ever was).

Have you not heard of minute men? Civilians with guns were basically the national security of America in the very beginning.
Yes, I've heard of fucking minutemen. I live in the Boston area - statues everywhere. Did you know that Massachusetts is where the Revolution began? Because I sure do!
That said, yes. A long time ago there was a legitimate reason for citizens to own guns. Now that we have police forces, a national guard, and a standing army, we're all set. No need anymore.

BACK ON TOPIC,
Dunno if this has been mentioned yet but has anyone seen the interview with the killers girlfriend? She says he was the nicest guy you'd ever want to meet. Always the typical response from neighbors-family after a person dies.(or in this case kills:zombie

Please people just lay down a good old smackdown if that way inclined,no guns need be involved.
I guess a few weeks before the shooting he got a few strange tattoos. One of the guy from Saw(the movie) and another of a skull w/knife through it. This story is undeniably sad. Every way you look at it.

what has caused this phenomenon over the last decade or so,surely it cannot be explained as copycats,or maybe they feel that this is now exceptable.I think the people who do this should not be felt sorry for as it sets an example of sympathy for the next guy who enters this mindframe.These people do not deserve a proper burial,infact i don't think they should be named publicly.

Sloughfegkillers is assuming that all people who shoot up places are the same, obviously that's not so. This guy was a very good student and a generally good person, and I do feel sorry for him because it seemed like he was living a pretty good life but then he screwed it all up by shooting these people and shooting himself; it's tragic on both sides.

It's indeed sad that he felt this way but come on we've all been through hard times, some more so than others.A good friend of mine shot himself recently, he was a hardcore dude and the last person who'd i'd have thought would do such a thing,dunno i just can't justify taking innocent people down as well

It's the kind of shit that does not encourage objective and thoughtful efforts to understand the problem at hand or the people involved. It's exactly the same kind of shit when people call suicide bombers "madmen". Would you mind telling me how heavy-handed moralizing and name calling is supposed to be constructive?

Well, if someone's crazy enough to actually take their own life, you can't really put anything past them. They might just kill other people in order to feel like their own death will have more meaning. And in a way, I guess it works, since a mass killing in a developed country will inevitably get heavy media coverage.
