U.S. Must Change Culture, Not Gun Laws
Friday’s monstrosity in Connecticut certainly informs the general case for gun control: In a society saturated with as many guns as the United States — 270 million, by one count — people bent on mayhem have too-easy access to the most efficient tools of the trade. But it also illustrates with horrifying clarity just how far the country has to go to if gun control is to be the primary solution to rampage killings.
Connecticut has relatively liberal gun laws. There are reports Adam Lanza recently tried to purchase weapons, but was rebuffed due to the statutory waiting period. All three weapons were legally owned by and registered to Lanza’s mother.
