It's another of those: "Guns don't kill.......People do!" moments isn't it? I, on the whole would say, "Yeah Right!".........MMmmh! but what about Canada? Just as many guns.............almost no crime? It's down to society. Says somethin' don' it?

The Yanks in my view get what they want and vote for, if they're happy with their kids getting shot on a regular basis, fine, who are we to judge, that's their way of life. Guns for all, an' the right to use 'em, Jus' don't expect me to feel sorry for'em.

It's a shame whether it happens in the U.S., Scotland or anywhere. It does say volumes about society these days. So if parents aren't allowed to discipline their children these days for fear of them being taken away and it's not the school systems responsibility, then who exactly is supposed to?

I think that governments have painted themselves into a corner here.

Edited to add: There are too many couples getting married too young and for the wrong reasons. They are not mature enough, yet have kids at an early age and it isn't helping the problem. You have to have a license to drive a car but anyone can have children at virtually any age, is it just me or is that crazy?
