(Technical notes: I added bolding to one word as seen and enclosed one spelling correction in square brackets as seen. That's it.)
The same way I propose to end murder, rape, and robbery.
It will end when the Lord returns, and not before.
None of this is the answer.
The answer is to restore the value of life to life.
This is a spiritual problem, everything else is a pointless bandaid.
As I often say;
"The trouble with laws is they handicap law-abiding citizens." -Tom
Disarming law abiding citizens won’t make bad guys less harmless. (quote seen on the interwebs)
Suppose we banned the purchase of all semi-automatic weapons, is there a guarantee that there will be NO MORE mass shootings, or even a DECREASE in mass shootings?
I’d add, keep a$$holes locked up if they are a danger to society. Shouldn’t take a background check to ID these guys. The only ID they should have is a prison ID.
too many a$$holes running around free after they have a known track record and get let out early or on bail or with only probation for violent offenses.
[[“How do you propose to end mass shootings then?”]]
By making it illegal of course
I’ll say it again:
Re-instate the second amendment in full, and fire, fine and imprison any governmental official who infringes it.
1. eliminate ALL gun laws
and regulations
2. restore firearms training and shooting sports to our high schools
3. re-open the insane asyla so that any seriously mentally ill people can get help, care
Ban guns to those doing the shootings: Democrat males between the ages of 15 and 40
Doing “something,” let’s see...the Governors of California and Colorado both suspended carrying out executions of death row inmates. California has 750+ and Colorado had one notorious killer that former Governor Hickenlooper wouldn’t carry out the will of the people.
Following Sandy Hook, former VP Biden, in a question regarding follow up and prosecution of those who lie or have issues on their ATF Form 4473 (used for retail sales and transfers) words to the effect that they didn’t have time or resources to review and prosecute. In fact, I think that I read that something like only 47 forms were taken through the legal process out of the MILLIONS of firearms transactions.
Yet, more laws (unenforced) seems to be the current popular political answer.
End mass shootings? End liberals.
So where were all the people who were concealed carrying at the El Paso Walmart?
Several easy steps. Start by attempting to disarm civilians. Ensuing “civil war” kills off many, many people. Survivors won’t be the kind of people who randomly murder strangers. Problem solved.
Try the good guy with a gun and allow any law abiding citizen to carry a firearm everywhere inside this country.
There is a caveat for the recommendation, which we have to figure out a way to address: By and large, as opposed to the spree-shooters, the day to day shooting works for Republicans and conservatives differently and to a different extent than it does for Democrats and their fellows.
For those who push for more gun control, I suggest we try it out first on a large city, like Chicago, or perhaps a large country, like Mexico.
