Gar, Your right, there is a new killer out there today. I still protest 100 years ago more kids had guns or very open access to them. they were not all angry and pissed off, like todays kids.
Look, I hate to see packs of kids running around with guns. I hate to see robberies at gun point, girls raped at gun point and doestic violence, getting shot over a cold dinner, warm beer or lovers triangle. Kids being killed by stray bullet or other kids is far beyound even tragidy. I cant even imagine being a parent in that case. I had a friend shot by another kid when I was twelve. I dont see how in the long run taking away hand guns will change it.

Whats the percentage of the gun killings that are done with registered handguns, vs, an illegal weapon? You can make it harder to get a gun but not impossible. People wont stop shooting each other until; they dont want to shoot each other.

WMD ? "what good is a secret weapon, if you keep it a secret?"
