    The gun laws were all tightened up after Dunblane. Since then no shootings. Strange, isn't it.

    This wasn't a shooting?

    No shootings since then was wrong. But that Was done with legally held shotguns and .22 rifles, for which there are exceptions in the law. Its also more of a random rampage than a single mass shooting, so a different affair to try and stop.

    Does it matter? Either way people got shot and killed.
