It's only a matter of time before something of the magnitude of Columbine...gun laws or not.
Yet we have not had a spree killing since 1996. How many are there in the US each year? People who are against gun laws will twist and distort facts and do everything they can to take a statistic out of context to further their point. Australia experienced one of the worst spree killings the world has ever seen and it acted quickly to make it harder for it to happen again.

Criminals are not the ones doing spree killings. It's people who are not sound of mind. Personally, I'd rather some criminal be in possession of guns than some fucked up lunatic who decides one day to go out and off 30 odd innocent people.
