Whilst it is true that "people kill people" if this twat had gone into the school armed to the teeth with knives, he would probably have been disarmed or stopped before he had the chance to kill many people. The fact that with a gun you can kill someone almost instantly from a distance is why you end up with so many casualties.
Even more likely is that the knowledge that you're going to be stopped pretty quickly would actually,prevent this from happening in the first place.
There mis no reasonable basis for having guns so readily available and Americans are just too stupid to recognise the fact. The constitution is so sacrosanct to them that it blinds them to common sense.
