To each their own, but I wouldn't want to live in a country where I could not legally defend myself with firearms. Living in a nice area where they aren't needed sounds good and all, but isn't that where home invasions happen?
Actually it wasn't he stole the gun and in Conn the gun was banned anyway with a 30 rd mag and columbine happened during the middle of the last assault rifle ban and they used handguns and shotguns and fucking pipe bombs and I'm sure there has never been a rape or home invasion or murder or shooting in your country please you're clueless
"At about 9:35 a.m., using his mother's Bushmaster XM-15 rifle, Lanza shot his way through a locked glass door at the front of the school.[19][20] He was wearing black military-style gear, including a bulletproof vest and mask.[21][22] Some of those present reported that initial shots were heard on the school intercom system, which was being used for morning announcements."
