They had some people on the BBC this morning saying that the answer was

more guns. If everyone is able to defend themselves properly, they reckon, this wouldn't happen so much, and when it did happen, the maniac would only be able to cap a couple of fatties before some other fatty capped him back.

Surely a grown-up society has to accept this sort of thing as a consequence of the Right to Arm Bears? Every society has it's homicidal nutters, so it's only logical reasoning that in a society with a) teenagers, b)homicidal nutters who might also be teenagers and c) s**t loads of guns, this sort of thing is inevitable.
