P.J.
The news just came on,isn't that shooting in Va.state UN. awful!!! 32 students killed!
4:11 am
Haz1558
It's dreadful - we were talking about it yesterday evening (afternoon your time)
4:13 am
lynxxx
Awful - so many innocents killed. Hopefully this will, like it did in Australia, spur on some tougher guns laws in the US.
4:15 am
P.J.
They said the killer was only 19yrs. old,what could be so awful in life that would possess a person to comitt such a dreadful act? ;-(
4:16 am
Haz1558
You can only surmise that the balance of his mind was completely blown - whether through circumstances or drugs or what we don't know. But the combination of a disturbed mind and the possession of firearms has been proved to be deadly once again.
4:17 am
lynxxx
They said on the news here that it might have started as a 'domestic' ??? - there was a smaller shooting (on the campus - 2 people shot/killed) a couple of hours before the 'main' one
4:17 am
Frances
Morning all.
On our news it said that he was Chinese on a student visa who went looking for his girlfriend. When he found her, he shot her and then moved on.
4:18 am
Haz1558
Good morning Frances - I think we've all been appalled by the news.
4:18 am
lynxxx
Hi Frances
4:18 am
Frances
Terrible news. I wish the US could be stronger and stand up to the gun lobby.
4:19 am
Haz1558
I know, Frances, but then look at Dunblane.
4:20 am
Frances
I know. How do you banish guns. Once you have the knowledge of how to make something someone will always find a way.
4:21 am
Haz1558
I do agree that guns shouldn't be freely available to everyone, but it's impossible to stop all such atrocities.
4:21 am
P.J.
It isn't the gun laws as much as it is the sick minds of our youth all over the world! They can't deal with reality!!
4:22 am
Haz1558
I remember watching as 9/11 unfolded and thinking, like so many others, that it was like watching a film. It struck me that we have allowed ourselves to be entertained by violence and bloodshed and that it has been wrong.
4:22 am
Frances
This is true hodag. We are currently having problems with young males either being shot or knifed. Why the need to carry weapons in the first place?
4:26 am
P.J.
My goodness not long ago in Detroit a 10yr. old student took a gun to school an shot anther student to death! Who do you blame the kid or the parents or the world in which we live?
4:28 am
Haz1558
The gun should definitely not have been available to a child. And if that child had problems, why not tell the parents to let them deal with it. Am I idealistic, or what?!
4:29 am
NonoNanette
good morning Babblers
4:29 am
lynxxx
Taking a break. I simply believe that access to firearms should be severely limited ! especially the semi-automatics etc (not that I know anything about guns but you know what I mean!)
4:29 am
Haz1558
Good morning Nono.
4:30 am
Douglas
Hello everyone...
4:30 am
mrpresident
In Virginia, you do not need a permit or to purchase or fire a gun and there is no waiting time.... sad sad sad times in the USA
4:30 am
Haz1558
I know what you mean, lynxxx - maximum damage with minimum time.
4:30 am
NonoNanette
following your conversation..... part of the problem today is that the parents are none existant in the home
4:30 am
lynxxx
Hi Doug. Hello MRP...and Nono
4:30 am
Haz1558
Hello Douglas, Mrpresident.
4:30 am
NonoNanette
they are off working all the time and kids have no supervision to speak of
4:30 am
Douglas
Hello hodag...
4:31 am
Aloyisius
Good Tuesday, everyone..
4:31 am
Haz1558
Nono - that's why I realised that my theory about telling your parents when you're hurting is probably me thinking about an ideal world.
4:31 am
mrpresident
I pray for those souls... those poor parents and friends of the dead... so sorry it happened to them
4:31 am
NonoNanette
g'morning aloy

Douglas
Hello Aloysius and Frances...
4:32 am
mrpresident
evening/morning all... :$
4:32 am
lynxxx
As a longtime working parent, with 2 succcessfully raised adults, I think that is a bit simplistic Nono.
4:33 am
P.J.
Hi o all that just came on...I'm going to take a break or nap,see ya ;-)
4:33 am
mrpresident
my parents worked and I had a nanny, then raised my own brother... I didn't shoot anyone... agree with lynxxx
4:33 am
Haz1558
Sleep well, hodag.
4:34 am
Aloyisius
later, hodag
4:34 am
Frances
I agree lyn. It is possible to be a working parent and raise well balanced offspring. I worked and I am very proud of my son.
4:34 am
lynxxx
Nono - that sounded a bit harsh - but maybe , as Haz suggested, its more about making sure the cuommunication lines are kept open
4:34 am
P.J.
TY Haz.. ;-)
4:34 am
NonoNanette
lynxx congrats to you on successfuly raising your children but there are many out there that just arnt that lucky
4:34 am
Haz1558
As working parents, you and your parents before you have made adequate provision for your children to be looked after in your absence. I think in many inner-city situations, children are NOT properly supervised and are left to their own devices.
4:35 am
mrpresident
yes haz, have witnessed that 20 fold in this part of the world.... but we don't have guns available 24/7 with no restrictions
4:35 am

Nup - its not there Doug - I even remembered to look for it this time too! but the volcano is!
4:36 am
Frances
Unfortunately Haz there are 'parents' out there who view their children as a meal ticket and are not too bothered about what they get upto.
4:38 am
Haz1558
That's true, Frances. Sometimes I think that people should be made to undergo some sort of aptitude test for parenthood. But that's probably too Big Brother.
4:38 am
P.J.
Just now on the news they said a 15yr. old boy stabbed two students on campas!!
4:39 am
Haz1558
I know the gun lobby in the States is very powerful - have they been prepared to compromise at all over these issues of freedom of access to firearms?
4:41 am
mrpresident
watching 'bowling for columbine' was the biggest eye-opener for me and everyone I know who watched it... we had the port arthur massacre, 35 dead... it changed out gun laws forever
4:43 am
mrpresident
the federal government called for all illegal firearms to be surrendered without penalty, and there were more than half a million guns turned in... how sad that we had that on our streets
4:43 am
Frances
I think you'll find that here any firearms are supposed to be licensed and held under lock and key. Having said that, unfortunately access to illegal weapons is also possible.
It does seem that the gun lobbly in the US seems to hold a gun to the head over these issues. Why can the government not be stronger and stand up to them?
4:43 am
Haz1558
I agree that you must do everything possible to prevent such tragedies, whilst accepting that it won't be possible to stop them all. The Dunblane killings in Scotland (16 children aged 5 and their teacher shot) were carried out by a man with legally held fire-arms. After that, gun laws became even more draconian, but shootings still happen.
4:44 am
mrpresident
the president of the United States believes in the right to shoot people. enough said
4:44 am
Douglas
The anti-gun lobby is very powerful in the US as well...

There are several of each - do you need the breathing heavily after running pa4/5, plural (pa5/12) or the pa5/12 - adding a vowel to the heavy breathing to make a British Christmas entertainment.

it is a fearful place. I live in the poorer parts of london and it is scary especially for the young men aged between 15-24. I cant wait to get my degree and move out of the country all together as its progressively getting worse
4:55 pm
momof3boys
sorry pink....it is horrible to live in fear
4:55 pm
stidmama
there are so many awful news stories mom of three -- I don't generally watch or keep track of even the local news because of my problems with anxiety. I can't function when I stay current, but I also know that often what seems (and is) awful locally is overshadowed by even bigger stories on the national and international scenes.
4:56 pm
stidmama
anyway, this is not helpful to me at the moment. I need to finish my sewing project (except for the hem) before the kids get home. see you-all tomorrow.
4:56 pm
momof3boys
i agree stid..i didn't hear about this one...but it is horrific...just found the race angle interesting. everyone is always turning things racial....such nonsense.
4:56 pm
pinkhatlil
i dont live in fear for my safety more for my daughter and my 2 brothers who are within the age group i mentioned.
4:56 pm
the_wee_man
yeh me too pink. you walk down the street and people bump into you deliberately. of course, i mean, in any city no one looks at each otehr, but in london, it's totally scary. you look at someone and its such a cold look. i mean, they do barge into you, and its bleeping sore sometimes if youre between them and a pole
4:56 pm
pinkhatlil
bye stid and everyone else im off *poof*
4:57 pm

sometimes fearing for the safety of someone you love is worse than fearing for your own...

4:58 pm
the_wee_man
well, i mean, it IS nice aesthetically. lots of tourist sppots, but to live and to commute, its not a nice place to live
4:58 pm
the_wee_man
but then again its the capital of the uk, so maybe thats why its differnt to the other cities in it
4:58 pm
jean1953
I live in the country so am quite sheltered, but momof3boys I have to say that from my perspective I enjoy visiting London, but I dont have to live there day after day
4:59 pm
pinkhatlil
its nice if your a tourist as you'll see all the richer sides of london but to live here is a big no no. England is the worst place to bring up children. It didn't get that title for nothing. I REALLY AM GOING THIS TIME!!!
