I just don't understand why we are the only First World Country where kids shoot up a place of learning to this extent. I mean you guys have to admit its a bit of a problem.

The rate at which this happens compared to other countries makes me question why.

Need to ban guns and put all cisgendered white males in reeducation camps.

Why don't we hold off on answering that until you answer the OP's question. Why the US?

Freedom just up and kills your kids while they study in class sometimes.

Every single thing about this country is different from every other country on the planet. It's not that difficult to understand, people like you just don't try.

I love hyperbole after lunch as a light refreshing take on events.

What does being a first world country have to do with gun control?

I'm starting to think that nobody knows the actual meaning of first world, second world, third world...

It is a problem. But it isn't a problem that will be solved by kneejerk legislation.

There are not many countries comparable to the US, whether it be in size, demographics, diversity, etc.

Do our gun laws make these types of events easier to happen? Absolutely.

Does that mean that changing the gun laws will help? I don't know. It might help in the specific area, but then again, it might greatly hurt citizens in other areas.

This is a cultural issue.

I heard in North Korea this stuff never happens. All the shooting deaths instead are a result of the government.
