I thought these sorts of things only happened in America .... due to our horribly lax gun control laws. [tinfoil] [popcorn]

With these laws Belgium has become or still is a quite safe country.... but never such massacres could occur like in the USA for example. .... It's therefore impossible to shoot around like a mad cowboy and kill more than 30 people at one time, as it had happened last week in Virginia. [/unquote]

This is probably one of the few cases where calling them assault rifles is actually accurate.  :lol:

Actually, iird Europe tends to have more mass killings then the good ol USA.

I can not recall where I heard that though so nothing to cite, sorry.

I was wondering why this has not gotten much press here in the states, I heard one little blurb on NPR the other day & that's it.
Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".
