        @camanpour making this issue about gun control issue is short-sighted, I hold you to a higher standard, Ms. Amanpour.

        @camanpour How often has this type of thing happened to Syrian parents. When its brought close to home, can be more sympathetic.

        @camanpour I'd say that has more to do with the fact ALL their laws are strict and punishment/prison is severe.

        @camanpour It's amazingly sad that NRA supporters can disregard this and other statistics showing the dangers of easily accessible guns.
