I'm not arguing for gun control, hell I'm not arguing, unless someone thinks a country with guns (take ours for example) is somehow as safe, or more safe, than a country w/o guns and tough gun laws.

CHL holders are about 2% of the population, at least here in Texas. Rick will have better numbers for VA. By that percentage, at least one of the students killed or wounded would have had a firearm. And there were a lot more people in that building, so the chance is there would have been a much higher number.
What did we have? A situation where the law abiding citizens are NOT ALLOWED to protect thier own life. They can obey, run or play dead. If some of the students or professors had been armed, it still would have been horrible. Just not this horrible.
