How ironic that the smartest people in their own estimation turn out to be idiots when it comes to dealing with issues of right and wrong. Americans by the millions have enjoyed the right to own guns for centuries. It was not until Marxists started trying to turn America into a 3rd world communist nation that we have been besieged by moronic ideas of giving our harmless guns up to people who despise America and the Constitution.Yep, sensible stuff. The wingnuts who think it should still be okay for anyone to waltz into a gun store at 18 and buy automatic weapons don't care. They all be like "Waah, infringement of our second amendment rights!"
Sadly, red flag laws have not been working either as clearly demonstrated in dozens of cases of mass shootings.As anna said:
Better gun control. Red flag laws, waiting periods, background checks, age limits, model and modification limit.
That sound emotional to you? Not to me it doesn't, it sounds logical and sensible.
We already have background checks, age limits and waiting periods. None of those stopped Adam Lanza or several other mass murderers. Lanza had a history of mental illness which officials later admitted they di not adequately treat him for. Grieving relatives of the victims should have sued the state for not properly recognizing his dangerous mental condition and not properly monitoring him due to the many danger signs. He did not buy a gun, he stole one. Background checks would have been useless in that case.Everyone should have a background check before being able to purchase a firearm and what's wrong with an age limit and waiting periods etc? Heck, people have to be 21 before they can drink in America right, yet they can buy an assault rifle at leisure when 18 with no fuss? Bonkers. With Matt McConaughey all the way with his recent and there's no partisan politics with the guy. Just common sense.
Salvador Ramos could.Teenagers cannot buy automatic rifles.
Now you're just flat out making me laugh.
Stopping a teenager from buying a hunting rifle is going to stop a responsible 40 something year old father and husband from taking a medication known to cause psychotic reactions in some people and having that psychotic reaction and trying to kill himself. That was loop the loop, then around the big wheel and back again and then on to some unhinged and irrelevant roller coaster.
I don't know how you did it but you nailed it. As psychotic as Soros himself.
You mean semi-automatic...I had one when I was 9.Salvador Ramos could.
I had an old gun of my dad's, probably a Remington 1912 pump action 22. Haven't even thought about it for decades.You mean semi-automatic...I had one when I was 9.

You're dealing with a European who at half a century of age has probably never held a real gun, let alone fired even one round through one.I had an old gun of my dad's, probably a Remington 1912 pump action 22. Haven't even thought about it for decades.
Denying millions of teenagers the right to own guns will not stop one in ten million of them from getting a gun and shooting people.Salvador Ramos could.
A gun, a car, a can of gasoline and a match.Denying millions of teenagers the right to own guns will not stop one in ten million of them from getting a gun and shooting people.
It was not an automatic rifle.Salvador Ramos could.
By the time I joined the Air Force I had probably already fired more rounds than most Military and L.E. do in their entire career.You're dealing with a European who at half a century of age has probably never held a real gun, let alone fired even one round through one.
In my life, rough order magnitude, I haven't fired 100,000 rounds, but I bet it's 10,000, because I know for certain it's way more than a thousand; and I'm not a veteran. It was all civilian.
LOL. You're another one of those crazed conspiracy theorists. You don't understand that all weapons are self directing. They go where they choose, select their own victims, and then kill them all on their own. They are not inanimate objects. They live, breathe, and have their own lives.A gun, a car, a can of gasoline and a match.
The problem isn't the tool used by the evil person, the problem is the evil person
And just how many rocks, targets, insects, etc... did you inadvertently kill? You must be a mass murderer by now.By the time I joined the Air Force I had probably already fired more rounds than most Military and L.E. do in their entire career.
Mostly .22LR & shotgun shells but if we're talking about an overall shots-fired number I guess they count too.
Oh, just a semi automatic then, cos they can't do untold damage at all, oh, wait...It was not an automatic rifle.
It's best to be accurate when discussing FACTS.Oh, just a semi automatic then, cos they can't do untold damage at all, oh, wait...
Teenagers shouldn't be allowed to purchase any sort of automatic weapon, semi automatics included. If you've got the pedantic out the way then how about addressing that?It's best to be accurate when discussing FACTS.
Unless they join the military. Then they are given automatic weapons and trained to kill.Teenagers shouldn't be allowed to purchase any sort of automatic weapon, semi automatics included.
Your simplistic solutions are not useful.If you've got the pedantic out the way then how about addressing that?
Most leftists' familiarity with firearms ends with Hollywood. That's why you have legislation like that passed by my State's legislature, literally in the middle of the night, after the Newton massacre, that targeted lethal aspects of an "assault rifle" such as color (black is bad), bayonet lugs, pistol grip, forward grip, flash suppressor, threaded barrel end, etc.It's best to be accurate when discussing FACTS.
