you're suggesting punishing the whole class for one kid's mess up, basically. Don't get me wrong, the shootings are horrible, but they'll still happen regardless of whether or not we ban guns(it'll just make it more difficult for the sane people to protect themselves from these crazy nimwads).
The solution is a bit more psychologically-involved. If people can actually identify shooters before they, well, shoot, then they can safely get the shooter to help which will save far more lives than futily banning guns.
The shooter posted they were going to do it on 4chan. People encouraged him to carry it out on 4chan. The fact is, if people actually did something instead of encouraging him, he might have been identified by professionals who could have given him the help he clearly needed.

Liberal logic: "If we ban guns, the criminals won't have guns!"
We might as well ban crime, then there won't be any crime!
No, i'm not a republican, nor am I a liberal really, but I just think most liberals are extremely stupid.

"what the shooter's motive is"
meanwhile at interrogation
"so why did you do it?"
"well i wanted to be cool on the interwebs so i asked 4chan for their input and they said yes..........." --------------------------------------------------
oh right, the topic
what should be done is gun buyers need to have a medical license or something
SOMETHING that proves they're sane |

I changed my beliefs on this on a while ago. This is the same argument as how the War on Drugs failed.
If we were to make any moderation to gun control, there would be a black market for people to obtain guns. That is why drugs, and guns should be legal.

australia banned guns without proper permits and gun crimes have gone down like 90% basically the only crimes involving guns are guns that have been shipped in illegally
im aware that you might say "that's not the us thats another country" but the fact is that if you banned guns, not as many criminals would have them
at the very least there should be a PROPER test put in place for people that own guns, so there arent stupid people that shoot down schools |

@weap It's not even that much of a political debate, if that makes sense.
It's very simple. Guns in this world are abundant and very available to anyone who just looks a little. If you ban guns, you aren't removing that problem. There's a lot of wealthy men on this earth who are churning enormous profits by getting guns to people without being regulated. Gun control only prevents people who are sane and who would use guns properly and responsibly from obtaining guns, it'll do nothing to prevent criminals or nutjobs from getting them.
The solution is better health care for the mentally ill and better screening tests for mental illnesses - not just before buying guns. If someone is as determined as this guy was, they'll get a gun, whether legally or not. Adding in screening tests prior to buying guns only puts more money into the hands of illegal arms dealers.
@ncusa
No that's not related to this. Screening as in before you get hired for a job, or every year or two in school, or when you get a drivers license. Major, periodic events to ensure people are in check and to also ensure that people who aren't in check get the help they need.
