Don't agree with your premise. Think the photos are bogus.

No they are not. The students are being recruited and coached by teachers and media and given prepared speeches to use during their “interviews “ to make it appear organic.

The Colt AR-15 was first introduced in 1963 and started selling a year later.  I tried to find the first time the AR-15 was used in a mass shooting and the best I could come up with was 2012 in Newtown.

For the sake of this post, I'll assume there isn't an earlier instance.

So the basic question is this - if a weapon has been available to the public for over 50 years and the first time it was used in a mass shooting was 6 years ago, what is the source of the problem with regard to mass shootings?  Nicholas Cruz should have been stopped purely based on the multiple reports of his dangerous behavior and the number of times his behavior had been reported to various authorities.

So if the AR-15, or any other semi-automatic weapon, had not been available to him, could he not have used a truck a la Nice, France or a bomb a la Oklahoma City?  In other words, is it the gun or the person?

If we're going to reduce these instances, it's important to treat the disease and not just the symptom.

Had a crazy dude here in SoCal posting stuff on failbook. He tried to open his moms gun safe. Cops arrested him. See how that works

Sorry, thought you were trying to be funny. 30-life for gun crimes sounds about right. Have to be careful with sentences that are too penal as judges and prosecutors will work around the ones that are deemed too harsh. The racially motivated option obviously can't be implemented, as being black is not what makes somebody a murderer. Your mention of confinement to an institution for the mentally insane would be for black murderers only, or all mass murderers? This wasn't clear. 

I know you guys will resist any law that would make it harder for you to get that latest phallic symbol to fuel your overactive, artificially stimulated libido, but why can't you admit that we have to get to the source and prevent mentally deranged persons from having easy access to guns? Accurate tracking of all gun sales is integral in being able to get to the person that allowed someone to have the gun in the first place. I include anger issues in mentally deranged. Psychological profiling is also a way to curb this problem. Is requiring a person to be 25 before allowing them to buy a gun ok? A friend or family member could loan them a gun if they all agreed it was, for some reason(not sure what that reason could be), necessary for them to have one. These persons that know them would then be responsible if they are unstable and commit a crime with the gun. These people would have a more intimate knowledge of any psychological problems that should keep them from having a gun. 

I intentionally added conditions I knew would never be implemented to see the reactions. Nobody has really addressed the issue of tracking and holding gun owners responsible if their gun is used in an incidednt. Having to get your gun from a safe seems a logical request if it saves one life. Especially if that life is a loved one. You're talking a minute. What situation, that can be logically expected, would not allow you to unlock a safe and get to your gun? If this became the law, American ingenuity would come up with many products that would cut that time element down.

I’m so sorry for what happened in Florida High School but there is no way I’m letting the generation that was eating Tide Pods just the week before tell us what we need to do about gun control.

2 days before the Parkland shooting, now they're distracted again and nothing from them while they sit on their hands

Dear HPD CHIEF ACEVEDO & HFD CHIEF PENA....you had NO BUSINESS, with your little publicity stunt and fake condolences in Santa Fe. CHIEF Acevedo, my kids and family don't give a flock what you think "it's time for"!!!! 
My son was trapped in that room fighting to survive and other son escaped dragging his bloody friends to safety you ass hole! We are all (sons included) law abiding responsible gun owners and avid advocates TO KEEP our gun rights. So STFU with your liberal agenda. If my responsible law abiding son had a means to protect himself and his friends, & those babies that died...... He would have done so.

FROM A MOM WHO WHO ALMOST BURIED HER SONS, but is watching her sons be more of a man than either of you will EVER be, as they bury their friends and grieve over what they went through! I HAVE EVERY INTENTION of letting the world know what those kids really think about gun laws, not just what the media and the liberal left wants people to see. Your a snake! WE STAND FOR OUR 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!!!!!

Ooh..... and MAYOR TURNER I'd say GTH, but your hell bound anyway you crooked thief!

Feel free to share
