So the answer to the problem with guns is...MORE GUNS.

This "solution" owes more to the celluloid antics of John Wayne than it does to any kind of rational policy response. The author obviously lives his life in a fantasy world where good and evil meet on the streets of Dodge City and good always triumphs cause it is faster on the draw.
If this weren't so serious one would laugh at such a ludicrous suggestion.

I have to agree with the first comment. The author is delusional. He must be American!

So the speech by Obama should have read: "We can't tolerate this anymore. These tragedies must end. And to end them, we must change. From now on we will be allowing any citizen over the age of ten to carry firearms. Concealed weapons will be allowed in all former Gun Free Zones, in our shopping malls and in our schools."

Yeah, I think you're pulling your own trigger on this one David, and your stats aren't really worth a damn, because they are selective and don't take into account any other social influences, such as the increase in the use particular drugs and the rise of organised crime during the 'war on drugs' and drug prohibitions. Post hoc ergo prompter hoc.

What will happen when you think you're in the middle of what might turn out to be a terror attack or massacre, and a complete stranger pulls out a concealed weapon and starts firing it? Do you fore at them? When everyone has a gun, how do you tell the 'good guys' from the 'bad guys'? For that matter, how do you tell them apart at any time?

He is even quote mining like a creationist.

sad realy

I am finally coming to accept that when people present a cogent argument against a knee-jerk reaction or policy, replete with firm and peer reviewed objective research to back it up, rather than offering an equally considered argument to the contrary, irresponsible people believe it is sufficient to emote a demand and ridicule and insult the contributor as though this constitutes an eloquent rebuttal. Worse, perhaps, is the overt bigotry. Oh yes, bigotry, because bigotry it is under the definition of the word. To assert that Americans who own guns are by definition cowboys keen to shoot it out on the streets of Dodge City, or that being ‘delusional’ must mean a person is American, is no less bigoted a stereotype than to suggest that all Arabs are keen to blow things up, or that if a person is drunk s/her must be aboriginal. You must be so proud. Or perhaps not…after all, such people do tend to post anonymously. It is more evident with each passing day, that ant-firearms lobbyists and extreme Greens will plumb the darkest deaths of insult and ridicule in order to sway popular support in favour of their agenda of intolerance towards people who fail to accept and mantra their world view.

Of course the "NO U" argument works quite well also don't it Gary?
