This is old news. Virginia Tech shootings. After Columbine the yanks sitting in Congress should have had the balls to wage an all out war on the lax gun restrictions and the pathetic way the laws are upheld.
but lets get back to the subject.
So we have this psychopath rampaging through a uni shooting people left right and center. And what do the americans do? Resort to sentimentalism, feeding the generally idiotic american society with personal stories of the *survivors* (boo hoo..i saw this guy running and shooting my dear friends, my beloved teachers....and basically tosh only americans readily gorge on and as a, result forget the main issue and the real question we all should be asking. "How on earth did a student get hold of a gun? A mentally unstable one at that too?"
I take it that we all are well acquainted with the term *fall guy*. The brits used Blair as the fall guy for the mess in Iraq and for the world it was a certain shrub with Texan origins (forgive the pun, but Bush is literally a bush to me given the severe lack of IQ in his brain and a lil something we all call 'common sense'.
The fall guy in the Virginia Tech shootings wasn't Bush nor was it Congress. The Korean won that honour. Which makes sense in a way.....he did shoot them so its only natural to blame him. Period.
Hang on a sec though.
Know why he was the fall guy?
Americans are in general advocates of what they call 'freedom' , 'democracy'. Vietnam, North Korea, Iraq. All so called *regimes* that needed dismatling due to the people 's rights being 'surpressed' by 'dictators'. It is only natural to not be hypocritical and practice what we preach at jolly old home. So, along came this great idea to govern a notion using a document written waaaaaay back in the 18th century right uptil now.
The Declaration of Independance,
Oh Yes!
The sole pride and joy of the yanks.
The epicenter of Jeffrey Archer's 'Honor Amongst Theives'.
The target of Nicholas Cage in a movie that i'm embarassed to admit that i watched and actually enjoyed.

.. And the main document that is the reason The Korean was the fall guy.
FREEDOM
Under this banner, the american public have fought for their right s to be armed heavily. a need that was born during the chaotic days of The West and The Revolution.
Despite changed times , the americans still swear by this right of theirs. They yearn for it. They need it in fact. We have sickos everywhere people. Lets admit it.
But
ONLY IN AMERICA THE SICKOS HAVE GUNS.
hence, the need.
If the lobbies take the fall and the laws, we will see that right being quickly stripped away by the eager peace lovers.
Hence, lets all blame the Korean, mourn the dead, and forget about this.
but the story's not over yet. American brilliance strikes again.
The whole incident presents a new argument and this is one that i personallly enjoy.
Gun lobbies, in the aftermath of the incident , start lobbying for the rights of STUDENTS to be armed on campus and the public is actually sitting up and taking this seriously. Of course, i'm not concerned, less americans for the world to support. The lobbies argue that due to the onslaught of such incidents, it is not feasible for the american society to be denied their rights, rights guaranteed by the Declaration, to protect themselves. At this point, all hope i have in americans ever wisening up the the root of the problem was dragged out of me, stamped upon and left out in Sierra Leone to be torn apart.
The root of this whole fiasco is simply having too much freedom. How on earth can adults suggest teens be armed, the same group labeled as 'immature' and 'incapable remaining cool and collected when faced with problems' by them? Talk about being moronic and hypocritical.
Speaking about being hypocritical, america is guilty of it more than anyone else. They advocate democracy, but America isn't a democracy in my opinion. It is a feudalistic state.
Look at its structure.
We have the president as the all powerful leader with only advisors the only restraints he has. He resides in the capital and governs from there using a feudalistic system.
Governors instead of warlords govern each province (state is a fancy name behind which the system runs) and establish their own laws very much different from all the other provinces.
For example, its a crime in Nebraska to carry guns in a car but not in Washington. So if you are from Nebraska with a gun you own legally, you can be prosecuted in Washington unless the gun is unloaded and placed in your car boot.
Feudalism.
The only democratic thing about this whole system is the people elect the Governors. Not a very good proof of democracy dur to the mutton headedness of americans and them being easy to play.
Gah, have moved too far from the topic..might as well plug on....
And more on american stupidity, these are the only people in the world to govern using a document written way back in 1776 by rebels from the british army.
Cheers!
