Yeah, except the Czech Republic will probably take meaningful steps to ensure it doesn't happen again
Considering they have a semi-2a already, doubt they will. And I hope they don't and get further pro-2a...russia is near.
WT actual F is a 2A? Sounds like a school class? Do we shoot it?
Types 2a because they can't spell ammendment
Fuck, just wait until they come up with a bump-stock-2A
Well, a special parliament meeting has been called already. Our constitution is quite malleable and I think most parties will agree on stricter gun laws. The gun was legally carried by the perpetrator after all, despite his mental instability and online posts suggesting he premeditated the act.
Also, I expect more training at schools: the killer killed his father first before heading to the faculty, and they had been warned. A partial evacuation was conducted but turned out to be ineffective.

One shooting in a country is not proof that the right to bear arms is a public danger. As one might note from the equally isolated incidents in the countries without the right.
288 school shootings in a country that is hardly alone in that right is instead proof of a cultural disease.
What was that thing with "Under no pretext" I'm sure that it's not that important
Nah this is a bad take.
Gun law is complicated, they can definitely be used to enhance the violence someone with ill intent can do but social conflicts generally drive it. I mean I'm aussie, we have a fair bit of gun control but still basically anyone who isn't a drongo can get one (although atm I'm in appeals because apparently ADHD precludes me lmao, yep defs don't want shooters getting mental health treatment! Should encourage them to hide it!). We actually have quite a few, almost all bolt/lever action rifles but. Handguns have a lot of commitment and training required which is reasonable since they're for target shooting and people murdering.
We have social issues involving violence, mostly femicide DV stuff, we don't really have the shooters. We don't get the stuff like acid attacks or stabbings that you get over in like the UK or whatever. Someone can do a shitload of harm with lots of thing, a slow firing rifle isn't substantially more dangerous than a car, improv bomb, or crude chemical weapon.
There was a mass shooting at Uni Heidelberg last year
Oh wow!
Now we have a total of 40 school shootings in Europe ... since 1900.
I had to actually read an article to make sure it wasn't Prague, Wisconsin or some nonsense.
Prague WI definitely doesn't have a university. If I remember right Prague WI doesn't even have a gas station.
I just naturally assumed I'd misread and that it was something to do with PragerU.
His online diary or manifesto whatever was already posted on 4chan, just on like Dec. 10 he was debating if he wanted to be a serial killer that kills one at a time or mass shooter. Long story short, he was going to do some fucked up shit no matter what.
"Wait a minute,
They have guns in other countries?"
That's news to me.
Italy? France?
Prague
Its not funny....
gal·lows hu·mor /ˈɡalōz ˈ(h)yo͞omər/ noun
grim and ironic humor in a desperate or hopeless situation.
I’m Czech and our culture prides itself in gallows humor.
Way to make the year's darkest day even darker!
Easy answer. Used too much. An especially weak argument when the one finding it "funny" is never from the area it's happening in, and thus doesn't actually have any emotional connection they're needing to cope with.
You know there are still a couple recordings floating around from people who had tried to call family and/or 911 prior to dying in 9/11? I've found anyone who listens to those seems to stop making the 9/11 jokes. Strikes me odd. Must have made it real.
"You can accept that things are awful and still have a sense of humor about it." - Daniel Tosh
You need a sense of humor about things.
There's the quote,
Laugh to keep from crying
it's not funny, it's absurd.
School shooting in Europe: A tragedy
School shooting in America: A Tuesday
Pssh, like we only do 1 a week
Closer to a day. 288 this year, but school's out, so we'll just have some mall and church shootings to close out the season.
I was in Auckland, NZ when there was an active shooter in late July and the whole city was on alert. I was expecting an American style mass shooting based on the number of sirens I heard outside. When I found out it was a disgruntled employee who shot 2 coworkers I thought "Oh, that's just a Tuesday in America"
