Turns out the AK47 used belonged "to the family" and that the kid had "defeated security measures" to get to it - which most likely means it was locked up in a safe / cabinet and the kid knew where the key was or the combination.

Because they share a similar culture to North America. They speak the same language, they play the same video games, watch the same movies, and listen to the same music.

The rates of intentional murder, just by way of example are about 4.8 per 100,000 in the USA versus .9 per 100,000 in New Zealand.

Something is clearly playing a much larger role than entertainment. :2 cents:

Most likely it's a combination of ease of access... Firearms are very common here. Ease of access, the medications we give kids, the lack of mental health services, combined with the video games and movies.... bingo.

One murder is sad, but it is NOT national news, it is NOT a mass killing, and it is NOT something we need a whole bunch of new laws to address.

This is apparently not the first school shooting in Oregon. The last one was in 1998.
