I agree but how do you change something that big? First we need to know how it got that way before we can figure out how to reverse it.

I also believe the easy access to firearms...plays a role in these horrific incidents.
It very well may be. But guns have never really been hard to get. Chicago has some of the toughest gun laws in the country and they had 43 shootings over the Memorial Day weekend. But no outcry about that. As Bucco eluded, we've pretty much become numb to the violence.

While I won't speculate as to what type(s) of weapon(s) he used, I would be willing to bet that he brought plenty of ammo (even if it was a handgun)...and he wasn't using a 6-shot revolver that took time to reload.
I agree. It probably wasn't a revolver.
