Breaking

From the BBC:
Gunman kills 12 people in Cumbria rampage
The despairing banality of human evil.

If you're a praying person, there are a lot of families that could use some.

  1. Waitaminit... wasn't there a gun ban law in UK?

    I presume this news must be a canard. Prohibitions are supposed to completely and proactively prevent misdemeanours like this.

    Just as alcohol prohibition sobered up the Finnish nation 1919-1932 and ended all alcohol-related crime...

  2. I was going to wait until tomorrow to comment, but it's my opinion that all gun control laws do is make it easier for the criminals, crazies, and terrorists to murder with confidence that no one will be able to shoot back.

  3. Didn't China have a guy shoot up some judges recently?

    He borrowed a gun to "inspect" it.

    I can't imagine more gun control than in China!
