"The school shooting in Germany was well timed... All the laws they can ever write won't stop a psycho from doing his thing."

Well, it wasn't timed all that well. For more effective timing, these psychos need to coordinate their attacks with each other better. That way, the second part of your statement would not be so obvious. For example, it makes the German lower house members look pretty stupid when, after they have just spent all that time in Parliament talking about how their new, more oppressive laws will stop things like that school shooting from happening, along comes some psycho in India who kills 10 people with an ax, proving the ineffectiveness of the legislation that they just passed.

See, "Deranged man slashes to death 10 family members in India"

Of course, I can just imagine the weird liberal responses of those same Parliament wackos now. Rather than face the fact that, even banning all guns entirely won't have any effect on stopping the sickos from going on a killing spree, they are probably calling their counterparts in India right now, with a whole bunch of suggested ax control measures. Some of the measures being suggested probably include:

15 day waiting period to buy an ax
Computer background checks for ax purchasers
No person should be allowed to by more than one ax in a single week
Restrictions on the allowable length of ax handles on new axes
(This would include replacement handles)
Ax sharpeners should report the names of those having axes sharpened
A safe limit on the sharpness of axes should be established
Ax owners should be required to secure axes with a lock, when not in use

I'm sure that some in the German Parliament are suggesting even more strenuous measures than those listed above. But, most of them are probably holding back on the more restrictive suggestions, seeing them as being unlikely to receive broad public support. However, I am sure that there have probably been calls for ax manufacturers to develop "smart ax technology".

The libs just don't get it. They don't understand that the only way to help insure that these atrocities don't happen, or at least don't get out of hand, is to remove all restrictions on private gun ownership and gun possession in public places. As long as the intended victims and those around them are not armed, these sickos will continue to carry out their deadly desires and nothing that the lawmakers do to restrict weapons will make a difference. Yet, just one teacher with a gun in a pocket or purse could have stopped that German idiot cold, long before the toll reached 17. If most teachers had been armed, he might never have even got started.

As the case in India proves, if a gun isn't available, an ax will kill a person just as dead. If an ax isn't available, then a hammer or a kitchen knife will be used. But then, there is always the possibility of "smart kitchen knife technology" and safer, less sharp kitchen knives.
