I agree. The gun is the symbol of power and strength, not these snot-nosed young kids!

While I agree with the thought of changing their minds, I am stunned (after hearing time and again that "guns don't kill; people kill") to learn that it is that easy for children to "just go out and buy another one" [emphasis above mine, not part of original post]. Pardon my outraged sarcasm when I say by all means "don't change the gun laws" that allow them to do this....
I don't blame Australia at all for calling the U.S. on its appalling level of violence. There go tourism dollars that we cannot afford to lose!
