Yes, let's round up all the guns! What possible reason could exist for common people to own guns?! None at all! Let's take them all away from those poor retarded people -- for the children!
That a bullshit argument (unless you happen to be a bona fide psychic, knowing full well the past, present, and future. Are you?)
We already have a set of rules on gun ownership. Oh, wait, I get it. If there were responsible armed people in the crowd it would have been a very short incident because he would have been shot in short order.
Yes, you're right. We need rules in place which require more people to own and carry guns.
The world faces _true_ democratization, ("mob rule", some would say) where the people are truly in charge of their own destinies, and where everybody can directly interact in their own governance.
The old guard is willingly blind to it--as the need for despotic/fascist republics is coming to an end. Of course they don't see it! It is the death knell of the old means of governance.
So, what with the death penalty and all--rephrasing what you've said--it's better to accidentally kill an innocent person as long as no guilty people are left alive?
Your logic is backwards, better a murderer go free than put one innocent person to death.
Don't buy into the State's terrorist propaganda bullshit, or you'll find yourself both innocent and imprisoned, just like you've accidentally advocated.
By virtue of this comment appearing on your screen, you (Anonymous Coward) agree to eternal servitude to all persons with user names who have ever commented upon Techdirt.
