          @BBCBreaking and #NRA will say, "Too soon to discuss it out of respect for dead." Can never be discussed then because it never stops.

          @blake4la @BBCBreaking It was stopped by #guns in the hands of the police. It could have been stopped sooner by an armed civilian. #NRA

          @Calimwulf @BBCBreaking more armed civilians mean more bystanders getting hit Means more armed people having arguments like this.

          @blake4la @BBCBreaking The certainty that the killer will be 'successful', or the possibility his victim may be hurt stopping him?

          @BBCBreaking wait for the gun nuts to defend guns. I don't know how they could in this situation, but I am sure they will.

          @BBCBreaking violence is a transmittable disease and must be treated as such. Mental health is the root of such a unnatural behavior.

          @BBCBreaking Maybe USA should ban dice games. More likely than banning guns! Idiots.
