Hogwash! Just because someone obtained a gun "legally" does NOT mean they should have one!
History has shown that is NOT true.

Just as a point of information, do you know that in England their police do not even carry guns? So don't go on saying that the UK has a horrible crime problem.

What we need is tighter laws regarding those who get them. Kinda like looking into the background of those who want them. And it can't be done in a day or two; there has to be a waiting period for a proper check. And yes -- hold parents responsible in some cases.
