You really haven't debunked my point. I'm not talking about the "right" 
to bear arms, I'm talking about the practicality of banning guns in a 
society where many people own guns. It ain't going to happen and if guns 
were eliminated, crazy jilted loverboys would still find ways to kill 
their girlfriends and other people.

Evidently the VT murderer got his gun back in March. The system worked. 
The brain of this kid wasn't working.
