Gun control isnt the answer. If they took away every gun in America today, by the weekend someone would buy one on the black market or someone with access to a Makerbot would just make one. Stop reporting these in the news and instead report stories of how to recognize and help people with these types of thoughts/problems. Most mass murderers are paranoid, resentful and looking for revenge against certain people. They long for the success, power, fame, acceptance they've never attained in "their minds" -- whether shootings, or pressure cooker bombs, or poisoning food, it's their way of getting even, gaining the "respect" they crave ....and by reporting these events and giving them SO much attention, the media gives these killers the notoriety they crave, throwing gas on future "sparks".
