School buildings have to be redesigned. We need cameras in the corridors, sliding panels to isolate areas and place the offices at the entrances....with a view.

Think smart.

“...but Kate Steinle is not.”

Someone aptly opined if the killer had missed Steinle and hit one of those sea lions on the pier, he would already be in jail. WTF, CA?

You are correct. Anyone who says Trump could have won a straight “wall” vote in the first two years by definition does not know what he’s talking about.

I think it’s bluff and BS. And not in on this Allahpundit assessment at all.

I think if anyone is in tune with the majority of Americans on this issue, it’s Donald Trump. He’s been right about it from the outset; this establishment attitude of, “Oh my GOD, we can’t do this or the Democrats will do it to us!!” is a loser.

The law was written for presidents to declare legitimate national emergencies, which, by the way, presidents (including this one) do often, and without any controversy.

Pelosi’s ‘threat’ that ‘gun violence’ can be a national emergency may (or may not) go over better with the public, but that’s not the point, is it? It’s what a president can and cannot do legally; declaring a national emergency over a constitutional right is a helluva lot more of a stretch than border security, especially with one caravan after another trekking to our borders monthly.

Oh, and let’s not forget that the Mexican narco-state is one assassination away from becoming a failed state — which will translate into a yuuuuuuge national emergency were that to happen.

I trust the president’s judgment on this.

So give every American a firearm so s/he can defend himself, Nancy. .

Mexico is coming apart. We’re going to be inundated by waves of invading barbarians.
We have a national emergency.
Parkland might be tragic, but it is not a national emergency.

Declare a national emergency about guns and you’ll get one.

San Fran Nan is truly an idiot. Even if this was a valid comparison, which it isn’t, illegal alien criminals kill hundreds of times the number of people who died at Parkland every year. School shootings are a tiny problem compared to illegal alien crime and illegal alien crime can be solved by simply keeping illegal aliens out of the country. Securing the border and deporting every damned illegal alien would not infringe on the God given Rights of US citizens either, it would enhance them.

In statistical terms, man-caused death by school shooting is insignificant compared other forms of man-caused death.

By contrast, the influx of illegal immigrants with 3rd-world backgrounds has a very measurable negative effect on our way of life and our economy.

How can it be an emergency? It occurred a year ago and has not reoccurred.

Is a shortage of botox a national emergency, Nanzi?

Pelli, Schumer and Maxine are the three top National Emergencies. The Muslim infilTRAITORS in key intelligence and diplomatic posts and the invasion over our borders are examples why Pelosi herself is the greatest danger to our Nation in this century.

Audit Pelosi as Californias economy collapses.

The fabric of trust between citizens and law enforcement is already badly frayed.

A rash of Red Flag confiscations with no notice & no due process could rend it completely if you get my drift.

Is this declaration of a national emergency going to require that police officers enter the building and engage the perp, or are they still going to be allowed to hide behind a wall and soil their trousers?
