Pretty embarrassing. Who shoots little kidleys? These guys should choose some military complex as the target for their extended suicide.
As for guns, I don't think stricter gun control goes a particularly long way at preventing school shootings and the like. (Gun-related crime in general is another matter.) School shootings seem to be purely the milieu of social recluses, ie. "responsible" people with no criminal record and nothing to prevent them from legally acquiring a gun. School shootings are also something that the person has been planning for a while, they don't just snatch their mom's sig sauer on a whim and start blasting at people. And it happens in countries such as Finland and Norway too, which have anything but lenient gun laws.
