sorry for my non american stance here but 1, its a tragedy, very very sad. horrible event in virginia. heartfelt feelings to all the victims, survivors and thei families.....
2. the constitutional right to bear arms, this is a very old old right. this will not change but surely there should be more legislation...
in virginia anyone can buy a gun if they are over 16 but for security reasons, they can buy only one gun........................... PER MONTH!!! to me, being from a country where you can buy a gun (shotgun, rifle, not pistols) with a long winded drawn out police check, identification check, criminal records, big licence fee renewable yearly, etc ec etc, that per month thing sounds daft....
surely sense will prevail at some stage. im not saying me shouldnt bear arms, im just saying men with the capability of killing with arms should be at the last not given a fucking free for all in the weapon shop!
