It’s been over 24 hours since the heinous shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, and the inevitable but ultimately empty outpouring of “thoughts and prayers” has turned into expressions of outrage...
“If you’re an elected official, and you want to keep things the way they are…if you want to keep gun laws as they are now, you will not get reelected in Broward County,” he declared to a huge roar from the crowd.

Nothing ‘stunning’ about a Leftist wanting to take away guns.
Nothing stunning about this and being reported by a treasonous left wing rag.
True...is he still under investigation?
Where was the “stunning” part?
Do I have this right? In a county where even the dead vote Democrat, we have a gun grabbing sheriff? That’s pretty hard to believe.
"...Sheriff Scott Israel..."
“Where was the “stunning” part?”
True, now if it Rubio.....never mind.
All of this talk however, circles back around to the construction of the Constitution. You need to modify this one single paragraph, to build some bridge of laws invoking gun control. Frankly, if you go to a hundred working-class Democrats and suggest gun-control....a majority of two-thirds of them don’t buy into a change. It’s not just Republicans...but a large segment of society who don’t buy into it.
However, if you brought up halting mood-altering drug production/sales...then you’d find groups from sides of the aisle who agree that this is a bigger issue than the gun-control thing.
Israel is under investigation? For what?
With Israel’s 2nd amendment bias on full display, anyone who has been denied a CCP in Broward County should appeal ASAP using his own words in their appeal.
Nothing stunning about a democrat from wanting to fix elections. They are getting more and more bold about it.
Or wanting to involuntarily hospitalize anyone who posts threats on social media
Do you want the grandstanding Sheriff Israel deciding who gets committed? How about Maxine Waters and Pelosi- who would they lock up.
Its not an issue that should be driven by emotion or partisan politics
Don’t worry, it won’t be...there are enough adults around, starting with Trump, to not let that happen.
First off, by his obvious NY/NJ accent, the sheriff is just another carpetbagging leftist import to south FL so this is not surprising in the least. Personally, I’m going full contrarian on this whole issue as I don’t want anything about this to stay the same.
Specifically, contrary to current practice, the stuck-on-stupid label of schools as “gun-free zones” goes away. Next, every school gets a security risk assessment and a security upgrade bond issue is put before the voters to implement the physical changes recommended by the assessors, i.e. high-security doors with bullet-resistant glass, video systems. access control systems, etc. Next, plan for defense in depth with trained/armed security personnel, including teachers like the late football coach who sacrificed himself for his students. He should have had a tool besides his body to use against the perp.
Israel and Schultz....2 Jews who should be FOR the 2nd Amendment for LAW ABIDING, SANE people!
Broward, along with Miami Dade and Palm Beach, have been infected by the liberal virus that has migrated from NY and NJ.
Maybe he feels that, by fulfilling Antifa fantasies of murdering future Trump supporters, he could have gun-grabbing legislation passed and make America helpless for his leftist thugs to control the population.
The new theme is to heap vitriol on any non-gun grabber offering prayers. By saying “thoughts and prayers” it helps make it seem they are not hating on prayer alone.
