  1. Not sure how you come up with the ridiculous assumption that I'm ok with what happened. And I would say that putting prayer back in the schools would be a good move that could reach some of these kids that may not hear it at home. Moral degradation is a big part of what is happening. We have killed millions in the womb for convenience and many don't bat an eye. Life is cheap to many. And "shall not be infringed" should definitely apply...you have it wrong, as many have stated, this isn't a gun problem. I certainly don't see you presenting any solutions other than pointing at the gun crowd.
  2. That's my question. Do I think a crazy person should have a gun...no. How can I make that determination accurately, I have no idea.
  3. I agree, now, tell me how you can enforce that.
  4. Thank you, this conversation should not be about guns, some just don't get that.
  5. [Hidden Content] From the article: The father of a teenage victim of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting told Fox News Digital on Wednesday that state governments haven’t "learned anything" from past school shootings and insisted more gun laws are not the solution to preventing more shootings. "Evidently they didn’t learn anything," Andrew Pollack, whose daughter Meadow was killed when a gunman opened fire at her school in Parkland in 2018, told Fox News Digital. Pollack referenced a school shooting in Santa Fe, Texas, in 2018 that left 10 dead and reiterated that more could be done to increase security in schools. "They didn’t learn anything from what happened in Texas at that school shooting, they didn’t learn anything from what happened in Parkland at that shooting, they didn’t learn anything from what happened at Sandy Hook," Pollack explained. "When you focus on just gun control this is what happens. It’s happened again."
  6. Hate it when I loss an argument…have a nice day.
  7. I’ve already pointed out you have reading comprehension skills, please answer the question.
  8. Really not too concerned about what you can't stand, the left wants to make this about guns, specifically "assault rifles", when that is not the problem. You seem to be in the crowd that would be willing to give the left an inch to appease them...it won't. If you take all the "assault rifles" away will they be satisfied...absolutely not. By the way, I can assault you with a BB gun, and you can bet that will be used if we give in and keep going down this road.
  9. Can you tell me what an assault rifle is?
  10. I agree, there are Washington democrats that are glad that door was unlocked. Sad, hard to believe, but absolutely true. That’s who we’re dealing with.
  11. Literally died from a broken heart, you are right, incredibly sad.
  12. [Hidden Content] From the article: "We will find out as much as we can why it was unlocked, or maybe it (the door) was locked," he said. "But right now, it appears it was unlocked." The suspect walked into the school and was not confronted by a school resource officer, Escalon said. He said media reports stating otherwise were inaccurate.
  13. Looks like he walked in through an unlocked door.
  14. I agree, you can't. It's pretty amazing how composed some of these children remained during this, even helping others.
  15. [Hidden Content] Some solutions from teachers themselves...from the article: Payge Guenzler, a teacher in Montana, called on parents to become more involved in their children's lives. "What happened today in Texas was horrible," she wrote on Facebook. "As a society we can start blaming politics or being in favor of certain laws or lack of them. We can start pointing fingers and saying it's one sides fault or the other's. It seems like social media allows people to be quite the screen warrior when promoting their opinions... But here is the downright problem of society that I see as an educator... Start parenting your own d--- kids and quit relying on schools, daycares, and the rest of society to do it for you." Rebecca Friedrichs, who was a public school teacher for 28 years and is the founder of For Kids and Country, told Fox News Digital she believes schools need to teach values and morals. "We cannot create enough laws to stop this school shooting problem, we instead need a rebirth of the value of human life that we used to have in this country," she said. "And, beyond human life … in America's schools, we used to teach morals." Friedrichs blamed teachers unions for the change in schools, saying they pushed curriculum that is "divisive." "They have removed the moral compass," she said. "Thanks to the teachers unions and their policies… now you can't really discipline kids who are out of control." Freidrichs said it was "tragic" that the solution may be increasing school resource officers and a police presence on campuses. "Of course, somebody should be able to defend these… innocent victims," she said. "Some force on campus who would hopefully scare off someone who would come to shoot up innocent people."
  16. I've always thought allowing teachers to carry, after going through training, was a good idea. But if someone gets it in their sick mind to do something like this, it would be almost impossible to stop. I think armed teachers could at least minimize damage. Also have specific gates that have to be accessed to enter a campus like a refinery, with campus LE if possible. I understand this would make drop off and pickup more difficult and would take some logistic problem solving but lots of traffic is managed through plant gates. I also understand this would be very costly to implement and maintain. Just throwing it out there.
  17. He saw it in a movie…turned out fine.
  18. You’re dealing with “45thSucks”. Trump obviously lives in his head.
  19. So every person that was going to buy a gun, you would have someone sift through all their social media to look for any kind of warning sign?
  20. Possibly, but only by law enforcement. Something like this could be weaponized very easily. Maybe TVC can enlighten us as to whether or not this is done already.
  21. It would, I was talking about facebook, twitter, instagram and the like.
  22. Just about every shooter that I can recall had warning signals that those around them should have addressed. Parents or relatives chose to ignore them or didn't know what to do about it. I don't recall reading about a sweetheart of a kid one day just snapping, there were always signs. As far as the guns and kids, I feel you are doing your kid a disservice if you leave them alone with no way to protect themselves, that is of course after you have shown them how to use a weapon. Couldn't agree with you more on the pit bull thing.
