Depends if said mentally ill person was capable or not tbh.
No way would have stricter gun laws stopped the cinema one. Guy was booby trapping his apparent not with home made bombs.
They will just find something else to maim, however I do think they need to at least make it a challenge FFS

You think you have a busy job. I work at the return desk in Toys 'R Us in Connecticut.
A little humorous but a bit below the belt.

That just isn't funny and neither is he.
Can't wait for the day some one lumps him one.

People have to learn to separate jokes and the real life situation that the joke arose from.
Kids being shot = not funny.
Topical jokes, even about kids being shot = possibly funny.

Would just like to throw in that they weren't "assassinated", they were murdered

Not trolling, funny jokes are funny (not debating whether the particular joke here is or not), can't go through life getting upset about everything, sometimes it'll be a topic that's a bit close to the bone for you, next time it'll offend someone else.

Already a lot of bollocks being spouted about gun law from both sides of the fence.
My favourite is the ban on assault rifles. Citing the fact he used one to enter the school (read shot a glass door). This would re-enact the previous ban from 1994-2004. Reminder that the columbine shootings where in 1999. Plus unsure how a pistol would not be able to break glass.
Not quite sure how they can change of for the better. I myself would be looking at mental health in the US for starters.
