“Make the penalties bad enough and people will turn them in.”

You might ask the Govs of NY, NJ, MA, CT, & WA about the noncompliance rate for mandatory registering of semiautos. Running about 85 - 90 percent IIRC.

Yeah, a lot of semiautos were turned in in Oz, but that’s because they were already registered. But there are still thousands in private hands.

And in New Zealand there is a media blackout after semiautos were made illegal to possess. If the ban were widely complied with, it would be shouted to the heavens.

Any new gun grabbing laws will have a long way to go to where the rubber meets the road.

“Police chief won’t identify gunman yet, says he doesn’t want to give shooter attention”... translation.. “gunman will not be identified because he doesn’t fit the profile of a Trump inspired white nationalist”

“Did not see a thing about that in the profiles of any of the shooters in the last years, going back to Columbine.

Did I miss that part of the stories?”

Uhhh Yeah. Here is some reading for you starting with Columbine. The first cite is from CNN no less
http://edition.cnn.com/HEALTH/9904/29/luvox.explainer/

The next is from Reddit and is more informal.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Columbine/comments/8fe6h4/ssris_and_eric_harris/

The rest is up to you. Start looking its not hard to find. I gave you a starting point to go forward from.

One of the major contributors is the unsupervised administration of the SSRI’s.

The first problem is feminism. The second problem is liberalism.

You forgot the third problem. Men doing nothing to defend their sons against the anti male bias in the school system. When does that change?

Wake up! These “shooters” are created in childhood by the use of psychotropic drugs to cure “ADD” and “ADHD.”

So when are men going to do something about having their own sons drugged up like this?

I think that is a Democrat talking point for giving up your argument and accept their position.

That's like the Democrats accusing someone a racism to bringing up that most murders occur in Democrat run cities.

What we really need to have a “conversation” about is how easily people are manipulated into surrendering.

OK. Are you surrendering the futures of young males to the feminists who hate them?

I surmise the real reason the DC establishment politicians want you disarmed is because they know that you know what they have done to you regarding the DC establishment politician’s scam on the American people. From excessively taxing and legislating in order to deny you your Constitutional rights come at the behest of their overlords, the globalist banking cartels. The only way for them to control most Americans is to disarm them. Human history is a strong indicator of what happens to an unarmed citizenry. Our Founding Fathers knew all too well how evil an unrestrained ruling elite can be. If you don’t believe it, then think of all of the deaths that now surrounds the Clintons.

Applied to you not to them is the way they see it. Some pigs are more equal than other farm animals.

Been following the story locally here in West Texas. My guess is that it was a drug stop gone wrong. Generally wouldn’t find someone carrying a rifle and using it during a routine traffic stop. Police know who it was but are not releasing his name .... guess they are going after others right now.

God needs to be brought back into our lives. He needs to be in schools, people need to return t church and our lawmakers need to be righteous people again.

Thanks, that sounds like a reasonable possibility.

Police have been tight lipped and I think it’s more than just not wanting publicity for him.
