15. there will always be maniacs, guns and such
We have a sick culture, Cho was a big fan of the violent war game style video games, so he got lots of practice.

The Army uses the video games to train their recruits,makes it look like fun.

Cho got guns, got ammunition and went to a "gun free zone" and
murdered
over 30 innocents, girls, boys, women and men, none of them armed.

-Can we detect all crazies?

-Should we get rid of all guns, and be at the complete mercy of our govt (if it becomes a dictatorship?)

-Should we make laws stricter, lock up more people, force more people into mental institutions?

I have a gun, never used it except for target practice, had plenty of gun safety lessons.

Don't know if anyone had time to get a gun out of their car,

maybe in the 2 hour period that Cho used to go to the post office,

some of the guys or teachers could have retrieved their weapons from their cars,

could have been prepared - if they had only been warned!

Why wasnt anyone warned, 2 people had already been killed.
