What happened in Newtown was terrible, but we are not the only country to have that happen to.

11 March 2009 at a secondary school in Winnenden, Baden-Württemberg, in southwestern Germany where a 9mm pistol was used and 16 dead, there was also another bad one in 2002 in Erfurt Germany where 15 were shot dead.

Germany being one of the strictest in Gun restrictions in the world.
It can happen in any country, its happened up here as well. Its just becoming all to common down in the US. I agree that its people that kill people and not guns. However, with guns being to easily accessible in the US it makes in much much easier for a nutjob to go off and kill many people at one go. People that use the argement "well cars kill people" Really when was the last time 27 people were killed by someone in one go?
