    "There's a half a billion firearms in the U.S. I think going after this as a gun issue is futile — it's a waste of time," says Zaporpic.twitter.com/imVNgGbIZa

        Maybe Zapor should tell us why those half a billion firearms aren't making our society any safer, then?

        The distinction is to prosecute. Confiscated guns.

        Look at the killer. Look at his history. You're trying to blame guns? A gun in the hands of a citizen is what ended this massacre.
