Obviously it's both. Guns give people the means to carry out these types of acts.

Way too many people are too unstable to own weapons. Temporary issues can turn into permanent issues in a hurry. If you can't understand that, well.....I hope you don't own a gun.

I don't have the statistics to back it up but I'm sure way more people are hurt by drunk drivers then by people with guns

its sharp to let people buy guns. all they want. I wouldnt trust 80% of Americans to operate a toaster safely.

but we need guns. in case we need to protect our homestead from a bear or hostile indians or in case the king of england wants to quarter troops in our home.

gotta have guns

Drugs also cause these same problems. You can never get rid of the guns. Ban them and you will still see more and more of crimes like this.
