The victims were taken to hospitals near the shooting in Veghel, about 95 kilometers (60 miles) south of Amsterdam.[/quote]

Such violent attacks are rare in the Netherlands, where strict gun control laws keep most weapons out of the hands of citizens.

Gun laws that disarm nearly all citizens, and the kid still manages to get a handgun.
What will the anti-brigade blame this time???
