A couple (age 32, female and age 52, male) was shot dead at their condo car park in Cheras. The police suspected robbery or revenge. [Star 12 June 2010, pN23]
A waiter, an Indian nationality, in his 30s was shot dead near a mamak restaurant in Dataran Sunway, Kota Damansara. [Star 13 June 2010, pN8]
Gunshot murder in the press for two consecutive days is very depressing. In the old west, men would settle their difference in a draw. Malaysians, who had no such historical roots, seems to be taking after the old west. This “have gun will travel” mentality believes that the gun will solve any problems. It seems to have been an emerging trend here.
Can anyone speculate why we prefer the gun now when we had always used other means in the past?
Perhaps the enforcement of our firearms laws had slackened. What do you guys think?

for me, even with strict gun control and regulation, it only works provide ppl in this country are all good citizens and the laws r enforced.
but those who are criminals, do u think they giv a dam bout laws n regulations? They hav they own way to smuggle/obtain the firearms and use it to kill those innocent ppl who obey the laws.
