A good example of where strict gun laws lead is Brazil. Only the police and criminals have guns there. Go look at the never ending videos of violence there to see how it does not work. They have created a hell on Earth. Police there are immediately executed too if the robbers find them.

In other words, the messed up prohibition against law abiding people doesn't even help the police. When regular people get robbed, they have to scream, "I'm not a cop. I'm not a cop!" to avoid being executed. How stupid are we as a species anyway? Let's take the means of defense away from people who should have it, and make criminals out of people like me who'll never disarm. Genius!

Regarding this specific event too, as usual it took over an hour before the supposed shooter was arrested. Government agents didn't do squat to help anyone. They didn't stop the predator. Armed teachers could have. Instead of being a "hero" shielding people with your body, be a real hero and use a weapon to destroy the predator. Since when has laying down like cattle and being executed heroic? Die fighting with or without a weapon. That's heroic.
