The Brit's Ain't Coming, Put Down The Guns

A teacher was critically injured when she was shot by a six-year-old pupil in a classroom in the US.
The mayor of the city in Virginia where the incident happened, said: 'I do think that after this event, there is going to be a nationwide discussion on how these sorts of things can be prevented'.
Well, generally after a shooting the result is thoughts and prayers are offered, the gun nuts say something imbecilic like it is too early to have a debate about it and then nothing happens until the next shooting and the process is continued but it does make you wonder what exactly America could do if it did actually want to prevent its citizens from blowing big holes in each other.
It is a toughie, on the one hand you have the right to bear arms and that far outweighs the right to not be brutally shot dead while going about your daily life and let's not forget that the law says you can't legally buy a Kinder Egg due to the small toy preventing a choking hazard but you can buy a gun in the shop along with your cornflakes so those are the bizarre laws we are dealing with.
As the right to bear arms was introduced in case us British invaded again, i think the only solution is for the British Government to put out a press report stating that we have no intention to invade in the forseeable future and you yankee's can therefore make another amendment to that previous bat-shit crazy amendment to say put the guns down, the Brits ain't coming.
Apart from that i am fresh out of ideas so sending thoughts and prayers it is as that seems to be working because 2022 was only the second highest gun deaths in the country ever so moving in the right direction and all that.
