Was removed within 30 seconds as it was not a response to your observation, nice to see you were watching my every word so avidly tho, that refresh button must be working overtime 
The point I am so unsuccessfully trying to make is that banning guns is not going to prevent violent crime.

1. Banning guns will result in only the law abiding citizens not having guns
2. Anyone that decides he is going to kill people is going to find a way regardless of whether guns are legal or not. Look at the amazing weapons manufactured by inmates of most criminal institution.
So if someone decides to go on a killing spree in a shopping precinct with a car what are you going to do, ban cars? Car owners are not even required to undertake the most basic of criminal or psychological tests.

Exactly! A p!ssed-off teenager in the UK just listens to Slipknot, a p!ssed-off teenager in the States goes on a killing spree at school/college using his Dad's gun(s).

Gun's arn't as accessible in US as some Scandinavian countrys, so the idea that its because they are just doesn't hold any water. The education system for them are totlay different, thats the issue.

Just, no.
They are not immune to the occasional rampage either - Anders Brevik for example, or http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009...entre-shooting

Guns are regulated in the US, just not as strictly as here for example.
