This entry is about the incident where a south korean male student who had been studying in the Virginia tech University in the US went on a gun rampage and killed more than 30 people around the campus. Most of the victims are students but two are university professors.
In a country where guns and weapons can be bought and sold freely, there is always the threat of encountering such situations. Schools are most vulnerable to such problems. Many people there would end up as victims. I feel that people shouldn't even be carrying guns around in the first place. Call it self-protection. I choose to think civilians should not own weapons at all because this brings danger to others but themselves too. There was a case some time ago, where a mother lost her son because her toddler daughter found her gun and, thinking it was some sort of toy, shot her brother and killed him with it. Guns are dangerous items and i strongly think it is unnecessary for the citizens to own them.
Also, this incident should make people think twice about studying in universities in the US.
