Again, something so tragic raises the issue of gun laws. This doesn't happen anywhere else in the world.

Basically 17 people are dead, because of a cowardly, no hoper Nikolas Cruz.

I understand that some people have a romanticised version that they are John Wayne and could outshoot a rogue gunman. The answer is limit gun laws surely?

Why do you need automatic, military grade weapons? I just don't get it, I just now a lot of parents and siblings will go on without their children.

... that one poped on my FB today and I immediately thought of this thread. I must admit, being an outsider, this is often how it feels.
