There is no solution to human nature.

I cant help but agree here. I am just wondering if anything could have been done to save all those kids and not see something like this happen again. I know you cant eradicate the problem all together (human nature) but maybe minimize these type of tragedies.

You think criminals will not obey laws banning guns, but they will be willing to sit down for a psych eval ? Lets use a little more sense than that.

Also, I don't hear anyone calling for a ban on religion or a test to speak freely.

Well said, I still think if theyd actually punish people that would help. You fuck up a multitude of times you get 5-6 years. You're out in three only thing that happens is you learn a new trick..

How about once you are deemed mentally deficient they just tatoo INSANE on your forehead? Otherwise, it's too cumbersome to try and evaluate 80 Million gun owners.

I think thats a terrible idea, just another way to twist it around and make it harder for people to get something. Its just like getting pulled over if the cop wants.. they can find SOMETHING to write ticket. Same thing applies to that. What they should do is actually start punishing these people. A guy shoots up a place and is taken alive. Take him to the town square and gut him brave heart style. Make an example of these worthless pieces of shit and people will think twice.

It might be a terrible idea. I am interested in hearing alternatives. All we hear is one side screaming to ban guns and they other pleading not to. There needs to be a different solution. Also, these guys almost always kill themselves so none of them face any "consequences" for their actions since they know ahead of time they arent surviving the day. There are exeptions but most kill themselves.

As many of you have, I've been reading the thread about the innocent little kids and what transpired in Connecticut today as well as trying to follow it on radio at work and I will probably turn on the tv at some point tonight. I havent commented in that thread because I am genuinely at a loss for words and I cant think of anything to say that remotely comes close to how I feel about today's events. The more this happens, the more I feel like we, as people, are a lost cost and are ultimately doomed. But my question is about gun control. Most of us here agree, outlawing or banning guns in general, is not the answer and this keeps guns primarily out of the hands of law abiding, upstanding citizens and doesnt do much, if anything at all, to keep them from criminals. So what ideas do ya'll have that could be the solution? What about psych evalutations being required before a purchase or having one on file for every x many years? I would be ok with that. It is just an idea or example but these kid's death cut pretty deep in me and surely all of you.
