I think that's what frustrates us with some other American posters on CP is their responses are so representative of America's response as a whole to every tragedy and every suggestion that your country needs drastic changes.

It's always a ho hum "Well, not much you can do about it, guns are part of us, it is what it is, and quite frankly Canadians are annoying when they get all indignant and hopeful that real change could happen".

I wish that had been the case, but I had to walk away from a co-worker today when he insisted that just everyone should have a gun and then this would stop. Because I'm sure that these two would've been able to fend off an ambush if they'd just had guns with them.

It's horrifying how these people honestly believe the "good guy with a gun" theory.
