If the teacher was armed then the kid wouldn't have had to take the gun in to school in the first place. Just kidding, I think arming school teachers to stop mental cases on a murder spree has to be one of the most stupid proposals I've heard in a long time.

Simply not correct, it was impossible to seal the Pakistani border and while the enemy measures time against eternity and is prepared to die for the smallest of what they see as gains the American government measures in four year stretches and is reliant on the will of the people to persecute the war and suffer the pain, that was never going to outlast the will of the enemy. It was always going to be this way. When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy. Lucius Annaeus Seneca

How about swords? Machetes? Knives? How about dogs? Where do you draw the line? How will knowing who has weapons stop people from using them? It won't will it, would it have stopped this tragedy from happening? No. Hell you should come back home to England Prof, you'll just love the big brother society and nanny state we have here these days. You'll feel nice and safe to because of all the CCTV!

Well we are talking about school shootings. It is absurd that people cite the hand gun ban as proof that it works because there hasn't been a mass school shooting since Dunblane when there hadn't been a mass school shooting prior to Dunblane either not in centuries!

How exactly do you think the current CinC should be prosecuting a war that was started by G.W. Bush? Please give details. The war that GW Bush started was in Afghanistan these children were killed in Pakistan, the drone attacks have massively increased under BHO and along with them so have the killing of innocent children, women and old men.

Terrible that the 20 children were killed by a lone nutter in New England, shame theres no tears from Obama over the 178 children killed by the CIA drones in Pakistan, they were no less innocent. He said 'We bear responsibility for every child' at Newtown, he also bears responsibility for 176 dead children in Waziristan. http://tinyurl.com/cvwndz2 http://tinyurl.com/creyj5l When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

How many people really NEED a gun in the house? I'm 67 and I've never needed one, nor do I need one now. Oh have you moved back to the UK? Maybe you've just been lucky.

Ya But I have had my turns at it too This is an emotional event Some want to make is stop They see guns as the issue Remove the guns this will stop Thats what happened here in the UK... It didn't work. Skyrad, maybe I'm reading this out of context, if so I'll apologise, but... if you're on about the UK ban on gun possession, when was the last time an individual massacred an amount of innocent people with a firearm here? Would it have been Hungerford with Michael Ryan and an AK-47, and then Dunblane, *before* the weapon ban? With nothing on such a scale afterwards?? Despite the UK having a completely different attitude towards gun ownership than America...the ban did work. Gun laws won't ever completely eradicate gun crime; but a huge reduction in their proliferation through banning them will certainly make a very significant difference. Other than Hungerford and Dunblane there wasn't any massacres involving guns in the UK (not including terrorist events) so to say that they stopped because of the ban is simply not correct. In the last couple of years we've had Derrick Bird and Raoul Moat not to mention the crimes involving illegal handguns which the ban has not stopped. Its still legal to own rim fire semi automatic rifles which are lethal at the ranges typically discussed in these cases, still legal to own 5.56 straight pulls, section 1 shotguns etc. Yet we still haven't had a school shooting like Dunblane if guns were the problem we would have. Like you said culture is the problem, until the USA sorts out its cultural and social issues these school attacks will keep happening.

How many did we have before it? Dunblane was pretty much a stand alone event in British history. I don't think the ban had any impact on a recurrence. Also its easy enough to circumvent the hand gun ban while remaining in the law. Long barrels, extended stock, black powder revolvers make handgun ownership still legal. Criminals still have access to SAPs the only ones the ban has caused problems for are those who obey the law. Change 'and' with 'or' and that might be a solution.
