Praise God, and pass the ammunition.

Exactly.

Screw them.

It would be interesting to see the gun laws where all the incidents occured as well.

Criminals could care less about gun laws... or any other law.

If they can’t get ‘Thou shalt not kill’, or even recognize it could happen to them or a member of their family... it’s moot.

On September 28, 2001, in peaceful Switzerland, a man shot and killed 14 people, including 11 members of a local canton council.

Interesting... I always thought that Switzerland was one of the most armed societies in the world.

What a bunch of hypocrits who critize the USA when we have a major gun massacre.

[Publius6961]

In 1996 in Port Arthur, Australia, a crazed man shot and killed more than 30 people. After learning of the mass shooting at Virginia Tech, Australian Prime Minister John Howard told reporters this about his nation's response to the Port Arthur horror: "We took action to limit the availability of guns and we showed a national resolve that the gun culture that is such a negative in the United States would never become a negative in our country."

Prime Minister Howard neglected to say anything about the "culture" in Australia that prompted a man to commit a mass shooting. He also neglected to mention Australian government figures that show five years after the Port Arthur-inspired gun crackdowns, homicides had climbed 3.2 percent, assaults had gone up 8.6 percent, and, astoundingly, armed robberies had soared 45 percent. Crime rates remain high in Australia despite the confiscation of hundreds of thousands of firearms, and gun bans.

Selective memory is not exclusivele an American failing.
Now, if we cared enough to keep track of crime statistics in second and third-rate countries, we could probably find dozens more of such examples.
Envy and posturing --- a sad combination.

Liberals need to maintain this myth; it’s unkind to wake them from it.
