No need for agonised puzzlement. It's simple. Lanza was a psychopath. Many are. Difference is, he lived in a culture that glorifies guns.

@RichardDawkins also lived in a culture of hamburgers. Surely I don't need to tell you that correlation is not causation. Data please.

@dibblego @RichardDawkins think the point is that glorification of guns => mass ownership of guns which, in turn, => more massacres

@oxbow_lakes @RichardDawkins I have seen no data for this, just awful reasoning, akin to the apologists whose incoherence we all despise.

@dibblego @oxbow_lakes @RichardDawkins you don't get data because you are not on the side of science on this one http://www.salon.com/2012/07/25/the_nras_war_on_gun_science/ …

@jedws @dibblego @oxbow_lakes @RichardDawkins It's telling that we need scientific research to convince people that guns are dangerous.
