I find it very interesting that whenever these shootings take place, each side of the gun control issue steps up to explain how the incident proves their point. School shooting? Wouldn't have happened if more people carried weapons. More guns! More guns! (always a great idea to have more lethal weapons among the populace). Mall shooting? Ban the guns!! As if it would even be possible to eliminate guns from society (imagine the great black market economy that would develop).

The thing that freaks me out is knowing that there are so many unhappy, lonely, sick, desperate people in this country. Does anybody stop to wonder what the f**k is wrong with our society? Where did we go so wrong that a person could feel so disconnected from their fellow man that they would choose to take people with them when they decide to end their lives? I swear, I think I would prefer the occasional politically-motivated suicide bombing than these random acts of desperation. Heck, at least the suicide bomber believes in something! The only thing the suicide shooter believes is that he has no more options left. Something is wrong with this picture and it isn't guns or lack thereof.
