I believe in stricter control of guns. I don't believe that anyone should be free to own any firearm that is produced. I believe that automatic weapons, plastic non-detectable firearms, and armor-piercing, "cop-killer" rounds should be outlawed. I believe that people who advocate the freedom of access to such items are lunatics, frankly.

Having said this, I don't think Virginia Tech is apropos to a gun control discussion. I don't believe that lax gun laws were the culprit in the case of Cho. The flaw here is in inadequate legal means to confine and disarm an obviously disturbed person, the failure of some individuals to take appropriate action, and the insatiable hunger for gory details and prurient matter by both the media and its customers...us.
