    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.

          It’s “murican” for the right to bear arms. Namely referring to the Second Amendment of the US Constitution.

          Somebody probably has shot it knowing this country.

            Ah yes, that really old law. We have one in the UK like that, it says something like you can shoot a Scotsman in York on sight, but only with a bow and arrow or after midnight or something

            But it’s not enforced because it’s an old law and, well, WE’RE NOT FUCKING STUPID 😂

          2A = second amendment. The second amendment to the United States constitution declares that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

          Second amendment of the US constitution. It’s text is:

          A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

          And what that means is up to “interpretation” and some think it means that everyone with no restrictions what so ever should be able to buy guns on a moments notice. Its the main reason why we have this problem state side.

        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.

          Yep, your constitution is not like the USAs which requires a lot of support from 2/3rds of the states to be ratified.
