More calls for gun control and control of social media

Wait for it, it hasn't been 24 hours yet, but just as sure as the sun rises, the cacophony of calls for gun control will rise as a result of the Ohio high school shooter. In the mean time, we will hear all the reports of how this poor kid was an outcast and a loner and the warning signals were there, yet once again no one did anything to intervene. Which means the only viable alternative is gun control.

 'Die all of you': The rantings of 'Ohio school gunman posted weeks before brutal cafeteria spree' as second classmate dies
The teenage killer who allegedly shot two students dead at his high school and left another three injured posted a chilling note on his Facebook page just weeks before yesterday's shooting.
Daniel Parmertor, 16, died on Monday morning when TJ Lane, 17, went on a rampage in a school in Cleveland, Ohio, police said. A second boy, Russell King Jr, 17, died from his wounds this morning.
Lane, whom classmates at Chardon High School described as a bullied outcast, ranted on Facebook about 'a man with a frown. No job. No family. No crown. His luck had run out. Lost and alone.
'Now! Feel death, not just mocking you. Not just stalking you but inside of you. Wriggle and writhe. Feel smaller beneath my might. Seizure in the Pestilence that is my scythe. Die, all of you.'
