I was thinking they could have made a mould out of some kind of plaster, and then traced that onto the timber

Cultural melting pot has nothing to do with it. There are plenty of more multicultural countries without problems like this.

If you think I'm arguing for disarmament, you're not reading my posts. I think a fair answer to your question, though, is that when the immediate response to a mass shooting contains so much pro-gun propaganda, America comes off as bratty, selfish and quite possibly insane - which affects us all, given your economic, military and cultural reach.

You're right, the suicides are the great unspoken tragedy here, but they don't sell nearly as many papers as The Biggest Mass Murder Of Modern Times.
Thats the thing though - constitutional change might not even be necessary, but the moment something like this happens, the left starts going "only gun control can stop this," the right starts going "you can't take my guns," and nothing changes. It becomes a constitutional law issue, easily politicised and personalised - and the focus comes off the real problems that contribute to this insanity. I don't pretend to have the solution, but the balls to put one's political position aside and address the evidence as it stands would be a great starting place.

See? The right to bear arms is worth a cost of, what, tens of thousands of deaths each year. A constitution can be changed, but you guys can't even foster a sensible public discussion to determine why this keeps happening, let alone muster the political will to follow through. It's almost as embarrassing as it is horrifying.

America's made up its mind that attacks like these are a reasonable price to pay for what it construes as its fundamental rights. If Sandy Hook didn't change legislators' minds, or the minds of the culture at large, I don't think any attack can.

Hey I was just in this store yesterday. I'd never even heard of it before. This is a cool coincidence.
