sheesh - did they even TRY thoughts and prayers?
I agree. Lots of dead innocent people...ok. But what about my good time??
It's like the gunman in the tram in the Netherlands. If they follow the same principle, they would have to take all their trams off the road!So because innocent people died we punish innocent law abiding people in return. Logical.

The punishment would be to force all gun owners to surrender their guns. That's what the mayor of Christchurch wants. Frankly I think that is a knee-jerk reaction. Many active NZrs enjoy pig and deer hunting in the NZ bush, and farmers need firearms to deal with rabbits, rats, etc that invade their farms. Those gun-owners are not the villians here.Punish in what way?

I am presuming a level of cynicism on your part. We have for some time now resolved to accept heliocentricity, and as yet I have been unaware of a proposition that we adopt DZoolandercentricity as the new paradigm. Perhaps those who need guns could have them housed as the Police station, and then when they want to use them, they can go to the police station to get there gun for the stated purpose and then return it.Varmint control? But...but...what about my good time? I really like firing that gun!
Dead innocent people? People die all the time. Why can't people see that it's my entertainment that's at stake here!
