Great Plague? Gun related deaths as a whole are not even close to the highest death rate in America. The Great Plague is thinking America should punish the 99%+ of people who are law abiding citizens to try (and fail) to prevent crime and death. Murder has been around since humans have been on this planet. It will be here until the human race is no longer here. Let’s start by teaching young people that just because something didn’t go their way that they are somehow a victim. Life sucks sometimes. Suck it up and try to improve. As parents we need to raise our children and not let social media or television raise them for us out of convenience. Lets start protecting our children by raising better children
As a former law-enforcement officer Every one of those officers that stood outside and waited should be terminated! I wish there was someway to charge them with some criminal negligence of duty! I took an oath to protect and serve. Protect comes first! I can and Will say I wish they could be tried for cowardice! I have personally gone into homes and buildings pursuing individuals that were shooting at the police! I thank God for protecting me however there was no choice! I cannot imagine standing around While children are being massacred! I hope they have long lives to think about their choices!
Yeah, the combination of what was said to my brother, with how this person behaves on social media, was truly alarming to my family and me.
It's almost as if they didn't want to stop him. Follow that down the rabbit hole, and see what you come up with.
People who are in favor of red flag laws are completely and utterly foolish. They haven't thought, for even a single second, about how they would actually play out in the real world.
On the contrary, you'd have to be a conspiracy theorist to believe that an 18 year old would have all of the equipment, supplies, and items that I've heard he had (assuming that all that was true).
Clearly not what I said but when you say America’s great plague I would assume you would mean what kills the most people in America. 1 child dying is a tragedy. Tragedy happens everyday and we won’t stop that by increasing laws. Put more resource officers in schools would be a great start to preventing this. 1 overweight and close to retirement officer is not sufficient. You still haven’t answered my question to you after your first question to me. What’s your perfect solution to all this and how exactly will it work? There are far more things that kill people in United States in greater numbers than a firearm. Also it is not the firearm that killed 19 children. It was a psychopath that was intent on doing harm to others. Starting with his grandmother.
does it really bother you? i’ve always wondered that about these postsSpeaking of rules not being followed…

Huh? Where did I ever say that scenario would/should be ok?….you think I’m not pro-choice or something? GTFO with making assumptions like that man that’s messed up
You are implying that I would be OK with neighbors ratting each other out for getting abortions, a completely different scenario from ratting your neighbors out for making blatant violent threats
🤫
I had another one equally as epic in a group text over the weekend. It’s becoming a regular thing
Robert O'Rourke for one, but it's widespread. Name a liberal politician at any level, and you'd probably be right.
There clearly isn’t a perfect solution, but I’d probably start with federal single payer healthcare that allows all Americans to have easy access to mental healthcare. This would solve a lot of other issues not related to gun violence as well. At a state and local level we should increase mental health access in schools, perhaps with a full time mental health professional on staff for some schools or districts.
This is what I’m referring to. The cops were called when he first showed up at the funeral home. They then showed up and did NOTHING. Also, how is someone able to shoot a gun outside of a school for 12 mins without anyone locking the daggum door?
I suspect you’ll see this play out quite often in divorce cases. Husband: she’s a psycho; wife: he’s a psycho.
interesting that the police commander on the scene, Pete Arredondo, who lied about officers having to use keys from a janitor to get into locked classrooms, is a Biden and Beto supporter and political donor. It has been confirmed those classroom doors do not lock from the inside. The security footage also confirms they did not try to open the classroom doors as Arredondo stated. The Uvalde police dept has also hired a private law firm to fight the release of the body cam footage.
It also doesn’t mean you should take away rights and freedoms from someone who hasn’t and won’t commit a crime. I agree on mental health issues. I’m not going to register any firearm with the federal government because 1. It’s no ones business what I own if I’m not a criminal and 2. Our government doesn’t have a great track record for trust (Republican or Democrat). Is there any legitimate research that proves magazine capacity prevents crime? If I have 1 30 round magazine or 3 10 round magazines there will be no difference. All a criminal would have to do is carry more magazines. As far as licensing it will never work. All a democratic government would have to do is deny your request for a license/permit. It already happens in New York and California. Speaking of California....all of the gun legislation in that state has not slowed down crime one bit. It has actually increased. As a free citizen I don’t want any gun legislation passed that hinders my ability in obtaining a tool for protection. According to FBI statistics I am twice as likely to use a firearm in self defense than I am to die as a result of a firearm. Contrary to our President’s opinion the Constitution is absolute and not up for removing freedoms. Amendments are made for increasing freedoms not taking away rights or making it harder on law abiding citizens.
The Second amendment only guarantees you the right to be armed and gives no other instruction on what that means. Even from an originalist point of view, the guns that existed at the time it was written are vastly different than the guns that exist now.
To understand the depths of evil in this world is not for everyone. In fact, most people don't, can't, or won't. They are the sheep.
My number was 1 magazine that holds 30 rounds or 3 magazines that hold 10 rounds each. There’s not much difference. You’re talking seconds difference in reloading fresh magazines.
Why do you hate freedom so much?
You really should read some history books. I mean, you're basically a nazi.
Ah ok. Well good point. Then we should require guns to be in such a way that changing out the magazine takes more time. If we start with the idea of “how can we make it really hard for someone to commit a mass shooting” then I’m sure we can figure out how to design a gun that way.
Why allow any firearm that requires a mag to be available to civilians? For civilian application (i.e home/self defense, hunting) what can a pistol do that a revolver cannot?
How about the one that's mentioned right there in the 2nd Amendment?
Please point to the language in the 2nd Amendment that guarantees the right to specific style of firearms ?
