We need better gun CRIME laws not gun laws! Cook County has some of the laxest in the US. Bringing back public executions would help those that have trouble with the consequences of evil.
I heard a short time ago that the shooter stole his mother’s guns - they were not his. If we have grown children, we don’t feel the need to lock our guns away from them. Don’t think this could have been prevented.
Ms McCarthy guns don’t kill people, people do. Don’t believe that? OK. Obama didn’t kill Bin Laden, guns did.
So, trying to get rid of certain guns isn't new.
“What good does it do you to hide your guns if you are going to cower when they come for them?”
How about “All The Above”??
I think every gun loving American should buy an AK variant, such as a Century Arms Polish Tantal, and a tin of 1080 rounds of ammo, both together for around $600 (less than the cost of your average handgun), and mark with GPS and bury them in water proof PVC, in addition to keeping the one’s they have on hand.
If many people did this there is no way that there would ever be a successful confiscation.
They are going to take your right to self defense away by doping an entire generation of American boys on Ritalin.
Glad I bought another AR a couple of weeks ago.
If only it were that simple. The laws are actually to inform the criminals and terrorists of the locations of soft targets. Criminals and terrorists have paid lobbyists too. They pay good money for these types of laws. I want to add a /s tag, but am not joking.
I will take my chances with being shot to death by a random shooter. I will NOT support the quack nostrums offered by a foul, vicious, vice ridden politician. This creature and her ilk live to control every facet of our lives and to plunder the fruits of our labors. They do not live to benefit the nation as a whole; but, live solely to grasp every bit of self indulgence they can obtain.
just think of how different this very sad situation might have been if every teacher in that school had been trained and armed. First of all, it wouldn’t have happened because these psychos go into “gun free zones” almost exclusively.
That's no joke. I have a bad feeling that this event will be the flash point in the gun control debate. Twenty dead kindergartners. You can bet soccer moms all across the country are going to be siding with McCarthy
“Let the liberals disarm and we keep ours.”
THIS COUNTRY MUST BE EQUAL! Take away Secret Service protection from Hussein or assign two or three to me and to each one of you. Then we are equal.
I’m sick and tired of not being equal to Hussein - and I want a full time chef and an underground bunker like his.
Mainly, I want Secret Service protection for all of us for life, then we’ll talk about gun control.
Nutcase McCarthy has the whole Capitol Police force to protect her in DC. The citizens have a few good cops and a corrupt DC City Council.
Capish?
Don’t all these uber wealthy libtards in Congress and Hollywood have armed guards. Do BO’s girls have armed guards? What about the lovely Mooch and her entourage. Disarm them first, and see how they like it. As usual, they will exempt themselves from things they force us peasants to endure.
Time to lock up the nuts!!
My guns are already locked up.
And then We the People will join together to lock up McCarthy’s goatsmelling ass for violating their Second Amendment rights. Sorry biatch, the Bill of Rights belong to the people, not to you faggot politicians and your government. The Second Amendment is the people’s guarantee that fags like you won’t try this kind of fascist crap.
We do NOT have a gun control problem in the USA.
We DO have a serious mental stability problem.
There are millions fo guns in the USA which have never done a thing wrong—either on their own (impossible) or in the hands of their owners. I was raised in a home where rifles and shotguns hung openly on the den wall. Even with the uberfights our parents had over the years, none of us 4 kids EVER thought either one of them would grab a gun. Lots of bad words—a knife a couple of times, but never the guns.
I would bet a prime rib dinner that almost everyone here on FR over the age of 40 has met someone or knows a family member—close or distant—or knows a family with a member who is more than “just a little quirky”.
Then there are those who are truly rubber room material and don’t belong on the streets and in the grocery aisles with the rest of us. None of these people are candidates for ‘out-patient’ status in any kind of treatment program. They cannot be depended upon to take their medication timely and continuously, and have to have supervision at all times. Instead, they are left alone to run amuck and to use guns to kill others in large numbers and guns get the blame.
There are millions of those loose in our society and their friends and family have blinders on until another day like today.
One neighbor of those 2 brothers summed them up in one word: TROUBLE. Since they re 20 and 24 years old, I would probably get a gold star for guessing tht they have been TROUBLE for some time & there was no legal way to remove them from the midst of the rest of us who just want to do our jobs, attend school, take care of ourselves in retirement and stay out of the way of these crazies as best we can.
There is a serious deficit in the USA about addressing the mentally unstable, and I would like to make it a crime if the family didn’t turn them in for treatment. IF the family member is wrong—then the person is turned loose, but how many of us truly know or knew at least ONE person in our lives who really didn’t belong in polite society?
I have—we all have.
When the dust settles in Connecticut, I think we will find that there were many warning signs about these 2 young men and NOTHING was done.
I have sympathy for the victims-—but not for the family members who didn’t do a thing to stop them.
I know the guns are NOT to blame. The person holding the gun and using it is to blame.
I'm aware of her history. She's a typical self-absorbed liberal. I understand her mindset: something bad happened to HER, so the entire nation should bend to HER will. It's all about HER and HER suffering. F--- her.
true.
