"most notably the 1996 primary school shooting at Dunblane, Scotland, led to decisive – and united action."

And how many school shootings had been taking place before that?

There is no amount of reality that will get in the way of the Left’s agenda.

How many armed people were in that school besides the shooter? None. What was done about the person who was clearly mentally ill? Nothing. There is your answer.

Leftist policies and the 20 strikes and you’re out and identity politics also Covid lockdowns and CRT and I could go on and on about why this won’t end.

I remember we could go to school with rifles on gunracks in the rear windows of our pickups, and we had rifle practice after school.

Maybe we need to bring that back

Agreed. There was almost no violent crime in the U.K. in the many years before the first modern gun controls were introduced in 1967 when police permits for shotguns were introduced (this done by Home Secretary Roy Jenkins as an attempt to divert public attention away from calls to bring back the death penalty following the high profile murders of two British police officers). As more legislation was created and passed in years like 1967 and 1996 in that country, firearms related and violent crime increased. The illegal trade of handguns from Eastern Europe and domestic clandestine manufacture continues unabated there.

We talk too much about it. We are encouraging copycats.

If we had common sense laws on the freedom of speech we wouldn’t have to read thoughtless juvenile screeds like this one.

In the US today, over 50-million gun owners did not shoot anyone.

If we could ban democrap voters we could end the violence. Democraps do the violence.
