I find it hard to believe any new legislation is required. Your telling me its not enough that he just recently bought a gun and then posted what is equivalent to a death threat on the internet, and the police couoldn't disarm him or suspend him from school? I am sure with existing laws they were well within their legal rights to prevent this tragedy from happening, but now this is being spun by their prime minister into a call for more legislation and more government control of an otherwise peaceful population. Everytime a government screws up they claim more power for themselves, thus it is a vicious cycle of corrupt ineptitude.

Aaron Baradley is a perfect example of how stupid the arguments of the NRA realy are:Finland has the most guns 'per capita' after the USA .This is the secon time in two years that somebody used a gun on a shooting spree like Columine in Finland in two years time .If anything this demonstrates that lack of gun control causes this .At least the prime minister was able to draw that conclusion.Aaron Brasle was not...Aaron Bradley stands for the NRA.The NRA does not care at all how many children die every year do proliferance of guns .It was even stupid enough to try to use this tragic event to demonstrate that gun control does not work .They prove it DOES work.
