I for one don't agree with either "sides", banning guns or making stricter gun laws won't solve the problem, a simple "guns don't kill people" dismissal doesn't work either. There is a more fundamental issue here. I went through a quick profile of this shooter and my mind immediately shifted from disgust to feeling bad for this guy. His face looks so sad, he didn't have any friends, he was apparently obsessed with a girl but didn't have a girlfriend, his dad and mom are dead, he was described as an outcast, a white supremacist and a very depressed individual. He wasn't a vicious killer, he was a guy that felt he had nothing to live for and felt angry at the world but more importantly he was a kid that didn't know what love was. Loners like this aren't rare, most people grow out of it but having a gun and not having a gun is the difference between mailing a letter through post and sending an e-mail.
