If these little skulls full of mush, and their Liberal benefactors, were truly concerned about saving the lives of children they would be protesting at Planned Parenthood’s death clinics.

Ban assault weapons (AWB), and not a thing will prevent another school shooting.

Two of the most massive school shootings involved not an “Assault Weapon” , but two handguns in one case (Virginia Tech shooter, 32 dead) and a hunting rifle (Texas tower shooter, 15 plus dead I believe)

THE most massive school massacre involved no guns, but a bomb in Bath Michigan, over 40 dead.

The next shooting after a AWB will be calls from the “reasonable gun control crowd” for another class of scary firearms, and then another...

But it really isn’t about an “honest conversation” about gun control.
These idiots either are dishonest in their true intentions to ban all firearms or they are too ignorant on the subject to see the dishonesty.

My generation didn’t have this problem, what has changed?
1. 2 parent families have declined.
2. Violent video games.
3. Movies show more violence to resolve problems.
4. Drug used is promoted by the entertainment industry.
5. Education in our schools has changed to liberal Indoctrination.

There is an understandable emotional desire to “do something” in response – but without evaluating what the “something” will actually accomplish.

This is what liberals do, they feel, they don't think.

We should start a “March for Safety: Ban Liberals!” campaign!

Not good be person ever mentions Columbine happened during the automatic ban. Not one person. I say this is one reason we are losing this battle. We are awful at messaging.

It’s all about show, isn’t it?

None of this does anything but create show.

We have a simple (but not easy) process to resolve this: Begin the process to repeal the second amendment. Of course, that means they must have the votes of 2/3 of both houses, and further ratification by 3/4 of the states, but they are welcome to do this. But with 300 million firearms in circulation, even if 10 years of repeal efforts were successful, it would be another 100 years before those were gone — not to mention the additional arms added by smuggling over that period.

And yet, no one makes a peep about real solutions — changing our culture by removing violence from video games, movies, rap music, etc., stepping up accountable parenting and reopening mental hospitals.

Instead, it’s all about show. And it’s a show put on by the very people who are truly responsible for what we have become...

But if you do have to open fire, having a semi-automatic weapon means that you won’t have to take the time to manually reload the gun.

This exact thing happened to 2 police officers in a shootout in Palm Bay, FL back in the days when they carried 6-shooters. While the cops reloaded, they were shot and killed.

I am assuming a couple of things in this rant:

1. There are OVER 100 MILLION LEGAL gun owners in the USA right now.

2. There have been fewer than 100 person who have done a mass shooting in the USA in the past XXX years.

Therefore, by taking away the guns, we are going after 1 million times the number of people who legally own a gun that going after the mental issues in 100 people who caused these events.

The Florida even is even more disturbing because the kid—CRUZ—had openly displayed very nasty behavior for YEARS & his actions were ignored.

Now-—a group of 16-17-18 year old CHILDREN whose brains HAVE NOT YET FULLY FORMED (Thanks, Dr Phil), are trying to take guns away from persons who have never exhibited any propensity for trouble.

This is so wrong on so many fronts, I cannot stand to listen to one more of the little snowflakes any further.

IF they think they can take away the guns from those of us who have never been a problem-—Have at it. Pack your lunch- You won’t accomplish this easily. WE WILL RESIST!!

Meanwhile-—they are silent on people who are driving-—who don’t deserve to have a license, and they are NOT talking about banning autos.

Angry because some of your friends got hurt or killed. I do get tht. But you are attacking the wrong segment of the population on this issue. Go after those who are loose in the community who belong inside a mental hospital.
