I apologise to the moderators for continuing this thread but I felt I had to reply. You said that if students could carry guns this guy could have been 'cut down' this still means that at least one person would have been killed. You are supposed to be living in a Christian country. The God that I am currently reading about in the bible does not want anyone to die whether one or thirty three. Every time this happens in your country the president comes out and says how sorry he is, well if he is he will do something about it. It is ludicrous that in most states of the US you can not drink alcohol legally until 21 but you can shoot a gun at 18. I also heard someone talking on our radio today stating that when they were in your country they visited a mall and were not allowed to smoke but again it was fine to carry a gun.
