Good Article on School Shootings

Edit: Link switched from Yahoo News to USA Today website. Pelican doesn't seem to like it when long URLs from Yahoo are used.

New link works fine. Great article, legion. The absolute randomness with which these tragedies can occur truly does leave us defenseless to them. Too bad not everyone understands that. Interesting in that even their governor, a Democrat in favor of gun control, stated that no laws he of which he is aware could have prevented this. Nice to hear at least that level of common sense come from the guy, at least for now.
It will be telling to see how he uses this in the long run, however. Politicians, by their very nature, love to push their agendas using any momentum they can gain, even if it is from a tragedy such as this and they know full well their proposals would never have prevented it.

I really do not beleive that terrorists are waging war against america. Because if they were, what would prevent them to do exactly what this guy did: go in a school, and randomly shoot kids. And what better way to terrorize americans is there? The war on terror is a phony excuse for imperialistic oil-rich nations grab. I said it 4 years ago, and I still say it today. Sorry if I swerved a bit off this thread topic, but that was the thought it brought me.
