Waiting for think-tanks from Sweden, UK, US, Canada to condone this kind of democracy and hate crime. None will utter a word.

The US government should subsidize guns so that US citizen including kids as young as in kindergarten could buy them. After all the "only way to counter a bad person with a gun is to have a good person carrying a gun". What a pathetic state of affairs there is in the US. The US Supreme Court judges issue verdicts based on their ideological affiliations and does not have the spine to outlaw sale of automatic weapons and magazines that belong in the battlefield and not in people's houses.
