    So yeah. Debate is cool but just insulting a whole nation because you disagree with their gunlaws doesn't add anything to the debate, than to give chuckle to fellow countrymen who agree with you.

    1st off.. guns were PRIMARILY designed to kill... thats fact, sorry to break that to you :( a baseball bat wasnt

    2nd... i never insulted the whole nation.. just the obese gunslingers.. unless you're telling me thats the case? ;)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Honestly, I know you're serious but if it ever came to that maybe it'd be time to just outlaw guns. Arming teachers in order to protect some pointless amendment and those who like to shoot shit is a load of utter bollocks.

    Outlawing guns will just make this type of tradgedy more common. Criminals will still get guns and everyone else will be unarmed.

    Not a great plan.

    Sounds like a fucking shit idea to me. Your Vice President, supposedly one of great supremacy, is a rubbish shot. America would be an endless grave. Although, the current gun-freedom isn't counteracting that anyway so I guess I'll side with ye on that one Cletus.
