        @Reuters Maybe some insight from neighbours to the north could help curb gun challenges in the states. More guns are not the solution.

        @Reuters -As a friend so aptly suggested, wouldn't it make more sense to have a teacher in every gun store instead?

        @Reuters Perhaps the gun lobby could ask teachers to teach weapons training to the children, teach them about landmines & hand grenades.
