Guns don't cause this stuff to happen. Guns are the tool not the cause. Instead of both sides using this tragedy as a reason to bolster their case we need to focus on WHY THIS CRAP HAPPENS. I've never seen a real discussion led by adults on how to stop this stuff. It strikes me that simply getting rid a every gun (a complete impossibility anyways) is like cutting off your nose to cure congestion. We need to treat the causes not the symptoms.

Holt Shit, there is NO room for this type of wisdom in a tread like this!!!
We as a society/culture/world will have to lose the PC brainwash, learn to look with clear eyes (as FRPLG has said) at a given problem. Call it what it is without regard for who it disturbs and call BS on our leaders that want to do otherwise.
Deal with it harshly if necessary. Our world as we know it is in danger of going away.
