And yet Switzerland's total murder rate is lower than the murder rates of countries that ban guns, including that of Australia. This suggests that if our goal is to reduce the number of homicides, gun ownership isn't the first thing we should address. |
0.00921351 and 0.0150324 is an incredibly tiny difference.
and no, we're talking about reducing firearm deaths, overall homicide's obviously require a different methodology. |

In the end...5 dead, a total of 22 shot.
Horrible. And to think this happened at my own school makes me sick to my stomach. |

It just makes me wonder if we are just at the beginning of this fad. It is the new suicide... and it brings with it revenge and immortality.
revenge in that you bestow harm on others and hurt others that you think "deserve" it, but then take your own life so that they can't get "even" with you.
And the immortality is the news media ensures your name is never forgotten. |

| I'm upset how come they are not creative. Oh well most Americans are not. Hopefully next time why doesn't one create a metal suit and throw grenades in the crowded lecture halls. Get a highscore:rolleyes: |

I'm still not feeling right. |
Let this be a sign that you should lead a virtuous life. :p j/k
RIP to the victims. lol at Israel on the bar graph. I'd expect it to be higher than the U.S. on the dot chart. |

Would sarcasm be considered humor or wouldn't it be considered saying something just to offend people? |

well what do u expect....their are alot of s in this world, including on this site.
i say this, b/c ppl bully and harrass other ppl and b/c of that, ppl lash out at the world in awful ways...maybe if we had less of that, their would be less school shootings and less ppl being mentally disutrbed.
tragic none the less, that anyone dies in a school shooting. but ppl on this website are just as much to blame as the shooter, b/c its ppl who harrass other ppl that help drive ppl to do this kind of thing. |
