Damages causing by guns and weapons...

It's frightening to think of neighbours, people in the streets, cashiers in stores who may have a weapon to use when you are in this country.

This week, I was thinking about it because of three events. 

I just came back from my running when Thierry scared me to death by sending me this email :

"The UD Police Department has been notified of an armed robbery at the Buffalo Wild 

Wings Restaurant on Elkton Road.  This incident occurred today, 12/11/2012, at 4:02 pm.

 Two suspects were last seen running towards the Rodney Underpass.  If you see anything

 suspicious, please contact the Newark Police at 302-366-7111." 

I was just running around in this area, I go to the dance class in that same street. 

The second one occured the day after, a man has killed two people and has injured others in a mall shopping center in Oregon, near christmas trees and Santa Claus display.

The last one is the most scary ; a young man killed 27 people including 18 children in Newtown, Connecticut.

After that you remember some of mass rampages of the last decades : Columbine (1999), Virginia Tech (2007), Colorado in a movie theater (2012). Often, the killer is a young man, shy and unnotified, he shut himself with the other victims, he was from a white middle class family and the shooting occured in wealthy areas.
