Crazy

This Tweet, seen here on my iPad, doesn't begin to sum up how I feel today after yesterday's atrocious incident.
But still on Facebook some members of the NGA and others, whilst having sympathy, are still saying that " Guns don't kill people, people kill people. "
Sorry, but here in Britain, where gun laws are tight, and were made even tighter after Dunblane, which was our only massacre, stuff like this never happens.
Why doesn't anyone on television news ever simply give this statistic: In one recent year, there were 39 murders by gun in the UK, but 9,000 in the United States? Why is it wrong to let Americans know how peculiar is the situation Americans have to live in?
The second amendment was put in to protect their citizens from The British and the king. I think that threat is long gone.
Residents of the town where it happened like living their because it is so safe; if that is true, why did the shooter's mother, a junior school teacher, need 2 handguns and a rifle in her house?
What is more important Americans, your right to bear arms or people's right to stay alive?
It is nothing short of crazy.
