Published February 28, 2012

A teenager described as an "outcast" is suspected of opening fire on his classmates Monday at an Ohio high school, killing one student and leaving another brain dead, while wounding three others.
Witnesses say the gunman targeted a group of students in the school's cafeteria before reportedly being chased from the building by a teacher and apprehended by authorities about a half a mile away from Chardon High School.

Do you really think the U.S. would be a safer place if police did not have access to guns?

I am brand new so forgive me if I stick my size 12's in it. The post above is directed at the police but the person, Eki who started the thread is speaking of a child killed by another child.

Why are we speaking of the police? I have been in situations where it is dark, multiple weapons in use, shouting and complete confusion.It is terrifying. All you ry to do is keep your wife and kids out of your mind.

As a new person am I supposed to stick to the topic or answer the police bashing? Thanking all of you in advance.

The first time I visited the US I heard on the news that New York City policemen had shot an unarmed man 41 times and killed him. I couldn't believe my ears:

Well, the topic is about shooting. As long as you talk about shooting, you're on topic.

Whatever happed to that incident in Florida (I think) a couple of years ago where a fellow was out for a jog in the middle of the night when he was accosted by a couple of young kids. I think a scuffle ensued and the jogger pulled out a Colt .45 automatic pistol. The two kids tried to run away but the jogger shot one of them several times in the back.
From what I remember the jogger was acquitted of any wrong-doing but the parents of the victim were trying for an appeal case.
