Those who aren't from the U.S. -- what are your opinions on these seemingly constant gun massacres in America? What goes through your head every time you see a headline or read a news article like this one? I'm genuinely curious.

I'm from a country in which guns and weapons are strictly controlled by the government. There were many times I was disappointed on my government because they control and restrict us on so many things but seeing news or articles like this, I know that they're right at some point. Also, I feel really sorry for those people who were killed and their relatives. America is not Pakistan or some other Islamic countries, these gun massacres are tarnishing its image as a place of freedom, peace and democracy.

You forget the fact that if everyone in the store was open carrying - some of them with assault rifles - this joker would have been too scared to do what he did. Nobody would have died.

Cool

You mean normal people carrying guns like jewelry, then the US should be renamed to the United States of Armed People. The problem with the US is that it's too large and the society is too complicated and hence not easy to control. Talking about this, China is doing better under its monopoly communism party (I'm not praising China's communism). You're supporting gun purchasing but it's the root of the problem. Using guns to prevent gun assaults only makes everything become more chaotic. I'm not wise enough to propose a solution for the US but I don't think encouraging guns will improve the situation.
