Getting rid of 99.5% of the guns would solve 99.5% of the problem. It would be really difficult for a 18 year old to buy a gun. That is all "if" Tell me why it is that in most other western countries gun control works but not in the USA? There are solutions of course but no one wants to hear them.

Yes,legal drinking age in Texas is 21 but you can buy a gun at 18. Really sick if you think about it!

Just wondering,what is the REAL problem and what is the solution?

A back ground check in this case would have saved the lives of 21 people. Like i said before,you have to start some where, but one thing i have learned in life,you can not help some one who does not want to be helped. There will be another shooting in the weeks to come and people will be shocked again. Rinse and repeat. Land of the free.

Well you have to start somewhere!Ideas like yours are not really helping,i am sure you have a solution?

Here is all the proof you need,the world is not flat!

Now i just read in another language news paper,19 students,2 teachers and the gunman dead. He was being bullied and before he went he also shot his grandma,bought the guns on his 18th birthday. Time for a turn around in thinking over there. Before i read the evergreen "when guns are outlawed outlaws will still have guns" Yes true but how many career criminals are going to shoot innocent children in a school?

Terrible, horrible when will they ever learn. Take away the guns!

Yes maybe not the proper expression i used there,i guess the way you use it is the better way?

I publish a lot on Facebook,never ever have i posted anything about what i had for breakfast or lunch,why would i? I have never shown any one how and where i party either. I think you have the wrong idea about the proper use of Facebook,it is great!For me at least.

You can have mine,if i can remember in which country i left it!

What has social media done for us? I think it has done a lot of good and bad for Thailand.I am not really bothered about other countries because i live here. I use Facebook a lot and i know a lot of people do also and a lot of people hate it! Internet has been amazing but social media is just a little part of it. I know all of you reading it must be using the internet a lot,i sometimes too much. I spend most of my evenings on the internet,and you?

Some places will place the tree for the price quoted. A truck with a crane and a crew for a few hours. The bigger the tree the higher the price.

Yes i know,imo the best idea still.

Let the Thai person get a mortgage but you promise to pay for it. If things go wrong,you just go.

Imo,the cops did what the kids parents should have done a long time ago! Violent gang members carrying a gun and crying when they are roughed up a bit by the cops?Get real,they deserve that.

Don't be fooled people,most Thai people deal their own way with dogs that are a pest. Happens all the time,i do not condone it but usually complaining does not work and angry confrontations are frowned upon. The result is usually a few dead dogs.

I do not agree,by listening only to your favourites you are doing yourself short. Listen to the music you don't know and you will find new favourites,at least that is how it works for me.

Yes of course,every one has their own form of truth.

A lot of Western countries have strict laws on breeding pets,still many dogs and cats are being culled every year. Another law in Thailand that will and can not be enforced. I know of so called"breeders"that keep their dog in very small cages and produce puppies by the dozens. Puppies are cute and easy to sell to gullible people. After 3 months they loose the cuteness and that is where the problem starts. Sure registered breeders can be checked and regulated but what about the so called "hobby breeders"? They fly under the radar and get away with all kinds of abuse. I know the Soi dog Foundation is doing their best but they could do a lot better. The problem could be solved in a lot better and faster way but that would require action from the local authorities and that will not happen soon.
