Is it even half way intelligent to craft gun laws to stop people like Adam Lanza?

Google it. Guns are effective, drugs are chancy and jumping off a building is messy.

I feel that the percentage of suicides that can only occur because guns are available is far too high.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
