I promise you this, bad people will always find a way to get a gun. Where there’s a will there’s a way. The sad truth of it is you will never be able to stop one individual with an idea like this in their mind. It will happen again and again.

That video is as intense as anything I've watched anywhere. Watching the first time and not knowing where the shooter was located... I was nervous and I wasn't there. Just unreal. Great teamwork and drive by the police.
Also, my wife works in the front office of her school and watched the surveillance video that shows the shooter entering the school. She timed the entry of the shooter at 10 seconds. Her and hercoworkers have been working on a 10 second plan today if that happened to them.

I can't imagine losing one of my children. Heartbreaking.
I get that it is scary, but the likelihood of this happening at your school is almost zero. Your kids are more likely to die in a car accident on the way to school than being killed once there. Does not make it any les awful for those it happens to, though.
Saferwatchapp.com.... hundreds of schools use it. Started after MSD in So. Florida

It won’t happen, but say we ban what some like to call “assault weapons”. Any moron with a decent trigger can walk into any crowded area in public with a Glock 40, which holds 16 rounds, open fire and kill at least a few people. You just can’t stop it.
The vast, vast majority of “mass shootings” (and Gun Homicides) are committed with a weapon other than an AR/AK Platform.
In 2019 alone, there were 10,258 Firearm Homicides of which 364 were with a Rifle (which means less than 364 were AR/AK Platforms) yet 6,368 were with Pistols.
Expanded Homicide Data Table 8
ucr.fbi.gov
Also, there are FIVE TIMES more Homicides with knives/etc than with Rifles. There are more Homicides with blunt objects as well as hands/feet: the Rifles aren’t the problem.

There have been 2,826 mass shootings since 2018, so by your logic being cis is more radicalizing than being trans.
An insult from a dumbass is basically a compliment, so thanks.
Your post is so logically flawed I won’t even attempt to point out why. You are obviously sub 100 IQ.
Do you think there are more “cis” (not a real term to describe gender) people or “trans” people? I think there are a lot more “cis” people. Are these mass shootings largely targeted shootings related to criminal or domestic issues or are they random shootings like the ones that have everybody terrified, i.e. schools, movie theatres, etc.? When you crunch those numbers the number of “trans” shooters is a large outlier.
Approx 0.5% of the US population identify as trans. Yet trans people committed only 0.14% of mass shootings. Try again, dumbass.
Not taking away from your point about re-allocating funds for security measures, which I’d actually support if it makes sense.
But I’d really love to see them take some of that money and re-allocate it to pay teachers.
It’s on YouTube. It’s a longer 6 minute video that shows 2 different footages. I’m not going to link because idk if I can on here, but it’s on YouTube by Forbes breaking news

95% of cases you are probably right. Still think it’s a good idea to delay the process. One of the mass shootings the shooter bought the AR the day of the killings. Just don’t think it’s going to hurt anyone to make people wait a little while.
There is plenty of data to show that stricter gun laws in countries drastically lowers the chance of gun related homicides.
The problem is that there are already way too many guns throughout this country as it is now and reeling that in will almost be impossible. Depressing to think about.

I think your own statistics just proved the point. If you normalized the distributions with your numbers then 28% of that population has committed a mass shooting. That’s highly significant
I was with you completely up until the last sentence.
If thinking about Evil is depressing......well, then I guess I'm with you.
But, there's much more Good to be excited about, if you understand ledgers, assets & liabilities.
Not sure but I think you’re misreading .5% as the percent of people who have committed mass shootings? If we’re going to normalize it then it’s 4 trans shooters (assuming OP data) out of 1.6 million trans people versus 2,822 non trans shooters out of 329 million non trans.
We’re talking about shooting little kids in school or random people in public. You’re a demonic piece of trash
When I saw that live yesterday,
I couldn’t believe what he was saying and had to replay it. I was like WTF is he doing .
Nothing surprises me anymore and every video with the opening has been cut up to eliminate…it was most embarrassing opening for a presser for a POTUS ever.
I’d be all for limiting personal firearms to Shotguns, Bolt Action Rifles, and revolvers. I can’t think of a legit reason to carry anything else.
But, the problem is logistically, how do you reel everything in that’s already out there? I think we’ve gotta tighten things up though, even if it seems pointless.
No, we shouldn't limit personal firearms to "shotguns, bolt Action Rifles, and revolvers."
That said.....with great rights and freedoms comes great responsibility.
1. Assault style weapons, AR's or whatever the "know it alls" want to call them should require a minimum age limit to possess of 21, except in cases where someone can show a requirement like predator control on a ranch or farm or something. And ALL purchases of those type weapons REGARDLESS of age should require a background check (even at gun shows) and a 7 day or so waiting period.
2. Punishment. You commit a crime with a gun and you immediately get an additional hard time prison sentence added on to whatever sentence you got for the originating crime. The additional sentence length commensurate with the crime. No parole either.
3. Parents need to be held to some level of responsibility for these kids that are messed up but don't receive some type of treatment. "Little Johnny just needs to be challenged." No....he's a nutcase and needs help. And if you have a nutcase kid in your house and you have weapons in that house they better be locked up and made inaccessible to said nutcase.
And the libs need to realize whenever they quote the number of mass shootings: the overwhelming majority of those "mass shootings" are criminal activity committed primarily with pistols NOT assault rifles and require criminal prosecution and punishment.
But none of that will happen.
I could go along with most of this. The problem is none of it would have stopped what happened today.
Or you could think of other reasons school shootings occur and attempt to address that. But yeah, we should just throw our hands up after the gun debate stops and get depressed about it because guns
If the janitor had been carrying a weapon, he would probably be alive today.
Crazy how important it is to carry a weapon in todays America.
