Adults and children comfort each other outside Dunblane primary school, Scotland, shortly after the shooting incident on the premises. The Dunblane school massacre was one of the deadliest mass murders in UK history, when gunman Thomas Hamilton killed sixteen children and one teacher at Dunblane primary school near Stirling, Scotland on 13 March 1996, before killing himself. As a result of the killings, two new Firearms Acts were passed, which effectively made private ownership of handguns illegal in Great Britain.
