Ma’am, there are 20,000 gun laws on the books.

Would 20,001 laws have saved your son? No.

No one in that bar had a concealed weapon to defend themselves or others. Perhaps you should be pressing for a law to allow decent people to conceal carry in California, instead of trying to take away the Constitutional right of Americans who had absolutely nothing to do with your son’s murder.

Sooner or later it will mean flagging as mentally unstable anyone who voted for Donald Trump.

No, I am not exaggerating.

When gun control is mentioned they really mean gun confiscation. No guns. Period.

No one cares. Sick of scumbags trying to use atrocity to push their poltical agenda. The state REFUSED to comitt this clown. The State of CA has blood on its hand, not the gun

She was out of her mind before.

She doesn’t want prayers but she still has mine. Not the right time to get rational opinions from this woman. God bless her.

I think definitely places with a certain number of people present should be required perhaps to hire armed guard(s), have metal detectors or allow CC or OC. The only gun control is no guns and that wont happen. Previous poster was right, its already illegal to shoot people. Or if you have had contact with some form of psychiatric Dr. or meds then you cant get a gun, legally.

It figures that TheDailyBeast would pick up the banner for this woman. They are ready to jump in there on the side of anti-gun people.
