maybe militarization of high schools and universities is what american kids needs to learn discipline, social responsibility and self control.

So you want to advocate to search and scan every student , staff member and visitor at the entrance to every school, all the time, instead of just making guns harder to obtain?
The big question is what do you mean by harder to obtain, and would it make a big difference? I need to badge in to work...it is not very hard thing to do. Walking though a metal detector set at a high level of detecting is not very infringing on.
we don't worry what may happen if we piss off soneone in the street.
Really?
Bad City
While both London and New York have populations of around 8 million, figures suggest you are almost six times more likely to be burgled in the British capital than in the US city, and one and a half times more likely to fall victim to a robbery.
London has almost three times the number of reported rapes and while the murder rate in New York remains higher, the gap is narrowing dramatically.
I guess beatings is just a part of life...lol At the end of the day bad people in America and in the UK will do bad things. If you feel to limit EVERYONE'S rights to somehow stop those who do not respect rights or the law as a good thing then so be it.

you are equating a fist fight with a shooting? really??
Lets do a thought experiment. I wave a magic wand and *poof* all guns vanish. What do you then have to fear and how would you manage the risk? - What actually changes?
