Well box cutters and unsecured cockpit doors weren't the root cause


of 9/11. But we stopped allowing box cutters on planes and secured the cockpit doors, because those things certainly were contributing factors to the death of 2,000 people.

You'd think we'd apply a little common sense to our gun laws. In a country of 300 million+, you're going to have more than a few crazy people. Undiagnosed/untreated crazy people is more of the root cause. But when those crazy people can stop by their local guns and guitars, pick up an AR-15, a 50 round magazine, and literally thousands of rounds of ammo with virtually no restrictions whatsoever, that's certainly a contributing factor to the amount of devastating killing that the crazy person can do.
