Actually the largest mass murder in the US had no guns involved. A man upset over his girlfriend leaving him tracked her to a NYC night club, poured a gallon of gas out on the floor and lit it. 54 people died in the blaze. Was mid 80's IIRC.
 
Guns are not the real problem, crazy people are the problem.
 
On the other hand hand, it seems men distraught over a significant other are a common link. Maybe we should ban women? :shakehead

I always thought the biggest mass murder in US history happened on September 11, 2001.

Please, people, have a bit of respect for the dead here. Don't let's grab this as an excuse to push an agenda, be it pro gun control or con. Let's just agree that people suck.

I've always said that if you wanted proof of how creative mankind is, simply look at the numerous methods we've come up with for killing or torturing each other.

all i have to say is to many people die every day that shouldn't, and that whole thing is a perfect example.

I'm always amazed the human race has survived this long without wiping ourselves out. Too many nut jobs trying to screw up life for the rest of us. RIP to those innocent lives ended so early.

Repairing a lock cylinder that is frozen or sans keys requires a drill, gumption, and a midget on a tricycle.

Lets end this thread for the peace of the fellow americans that died today.Please


I can agree to that.





(Just to set things straight, again, I didn't say ban guns. Not even close. Guns aren't banned in Canada either. If anyone wants to keep this issue going in a new thread, feel free. I'm happy with leaving it at this.)

As can I.  I went to school with a girl who goes to VA Tech.  I'm really hoping everything's well with her.

I just graduated from Tech in December and my sister lives in the dorm where the shooting started.  The RA's body was found just around the corner from her dorm room.  This whole situation is crazy.  While I do have very strong opinions on what to do about gun control - like others have said, this isn't the time for that argument.

There is another board member who is still a student there - can't remember his name though.  Edit: It was jlewis05 and he already posted.
