Maybe instead of arguing over whether there are too many guns or not enough guns we should examine what exactly it is about our society that keeps producing these shattered, desperate people who feel their only recourse is to acquire a weapon and kill as many people as they can. People don't shoot up schools just because they have access to a gun, there is always something pushes them over that edge. But no, that would mean that we might actually have to do some introspection and confront the darkest parts of our own psyches, political soapboxing is much easier.
