Townhall ^ | November 14, 2019 | John R. Lott, Jr.

Posted on 11/17/2019 6:35:04 PM PST by rogerantone1

Another school shooting, this time by a 15-year-old at Saugus High School in California, another quest for answers. Yet, 20 years after Columbine, the United States is still looking for how to stop mass public shootings. The rest of the world, where mass public shootings are actually much more common, is also looking for solutions.

Dear Mr. Lott:

It’s California. Do you really think they care HOW many people die, as long as it fits their narrative and moves their commie agenda forward?

Psst... Secret: They don’t care at all.

Whenever liberals find that their policies are not working, they think it’s because they’re not extreme enough.

I’ll just say this:

For every armed, carrying American, there should NEVER be any such thing as a”Gun-free Zone”. No matter WHERE you are.

And just let that thought and its implications sink in.

We are ALWAYS either our own First Responders - or we’re completely worthless.

Nah, they'll follow the Chicago plan and blame the surrounding states for their lax gun laws.

All gun-free zones should be held liable for any shooting deaths by insane mass shooters (is there another kind?). They have taken the responsibility to keep all those under their protection safe by taking away the ability for everyone to protect themselves.

60 minutes told me that red flag laws might save likes?

All violations of our Constitutional rights begin with government wanting to do the right thing.

School shootings are a stalking horse for the Left's compulsion about gun control. They could care less about a few dead brats. It's a lame excuse to steal the proles best method of defiance against the State. A Leftist always sees himself as blindingly intelligent, and smugly sure what is best for everyone.

When they get rid of this Constitution thing, The World will be better for it.

I CCW everywhere, except in courthouses, where metal detectors are at doors and sheriffs are armed. Mr 1911 5” Kimber .45cal ACP goes everywhere with me.

Yet ‘the government’ hands out lenient sentences for DUI #6, 7, 8 ...

A woman not far from us was sentenced to ‘time served’ after slamming head-on into two people and killing them. She was released from a 14 week inpatient drug rehab that morning, and was high on heroin that afternoon. I noticed the judge didn’t order her not to drive anymore.

Disarming patriots is absolutely necessary for their totalitarian agenda.

First, the causes should be defined: drugs that permanently damage brains, media propaganda that deceives people about reality, promiscuity with related diseases, resulting fatherlessness, homosexuality with related diseases,... Human minds and bodies weren’t created to take such abuses. What we’re seeing is a cult of insanity.

A couple of decades ago, fathers warned you about the super predators to come. They’re here.

I read the other day, I think in Ohio maybe, a school is training some teachers and other employees of a school how to protect the school/kids if a shooter appears.

So some ppl will be armed.

Israel did this years ago after a shooting at a school.

They now have NO school shootings anymore.
