The latest gun tragedy in the USA and the polarised debate between pro-gun control and anti-gun control groups.

All of us extend our deepest sympathy to the families of the murdered children and adults in the USA shooting today.
This article is interesting but the comments below it reveal the huge gap in thinking between those who believe that gun controls are needed and the pro-gun lobby who oppose gun control.

The UK has about 40 gun murders per year
Japan less than 30
Canada has about 200 murders
USA has 10,000 approximately.
