#1- Sandy Hook, US in 2012 - 26 victims (20 children, 6 adults)
#2- Dunblane, Scotland in 1996 - 17 victims (16 children, 1 adult)
#3- Erfurt, Germany in 2002 - 16 victims (2 children, 14 adults)
#4- Winnenden, Germany in 2009 - 15 victims (9 children, 6 adults)
#5- Columbine, US, 1999 - 13 victims (12 children, 1 adult)
Two in Germany, and one in Scotland, both of which have much more strict gun control laws. In fact, at the time of the Scotland shooting, only .1% of the population owned a gun in that country.
Can somebody tell me why more gun control laws in the US are supposed to prevent these tragedies?
