Does John mean the newly altered 2nd Amendment?

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the "PROPERLY TESTED" people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Like so many other great idears, YUGE pitfalls on just who the deciders are as to "proper". And the deciders of who is and isn't "mental". And how easily will the "proper" and "mental capacity" be changed. Sort of like the definiiton of "vaccine" was changed. Who trusts the assclowns in the current cabal to be honest and trustworthy? You like your gas prices, you can keep your gas prices. To paraphrase the 2nd worst potus ever.

To implement this provision would be to transform the RKBA’s from an inalienable right into a government sanctioned privilege like a driver’s license.

My problem with the “we must identify every individual for their credentials for mental capacity......” is WHO in the hell decides this?

I know what gun hating leftists want. They want ANY ‘outing’ of someone made by ANYONE on Twitter, Facebook or wherever to be grounds enough to red flag someone and deny them their Bill of Rights protection.

That could be your neighbor, an acquaintance or whoever who just doesn’t like you and wants to ‘fix your conservative ass good.’

How about proper testing for voting?

” We must identify every individual for their credentials for their mental capacity to bear arms.

I’m sorry. Being a law abiding conservative, you do not have the requisite “credentials” to own a gun.

People, don’t “OVERREACT” to this tragedy.

Statistically, its not something you should even worry about happening to your child.

Not to say that RATIONAL steps can’t be taken to protect children from ALL dangers. (Like pedophile teachers and coaches).

Like the famous phrase “I rob banks because that’s where the money is”, Pedophiles get jobs in education because that’s where the children are.

You should worry MORE about trannies in your kids bathrooms, swimming pools, and locker rooms than active shooters in the classrooms. It is far more likely that you have a child predator in the gym or classroom.

BTW Jon,
You even confuse children with angels, new age silliness.

To me a key problem is that children are raised with NO respect for anyone’s life but their own. Any attempt to teach “Right and Wrong” are condemned by the Leftists & Progressives, where they believe in “if it feels good, do it.” Thus teenagers getting a gun and shooting others is being encouraged by those who want to destroy Western Society based upon personal responsibility, respect for others, and a Judeo-Christian faith.

“We must identify every individual for their credentials for their mental capacity and citizenship to vote. There should be proper qualifications for gun ownership voting, and proper testing. One should only own a gun vote if they’re qualified and schooled.”

There. I fixed it.

Maybe Jon Voight can vouch for all the killers who never use firearms, like the Tsarnaev brothers who murdered their victims at the Boston Marathon, the 9/11 terrorists, or Mr. Fauxi.

Jon Voight can volunteer to do the testing. It certainly can't be the Feds; they blamed security guard Richard Jewell despite his innocence.

Sure. Have them take the fatherless, effeminate, psychopathic drug abuser test before purchasing a firearm.

Where’s that test?

Students are overwhelmed with the lockdowns there. Were the border not an issue, things would be different. People cried wolf too often.

Had the outside door been locked, this would not have happened

Had the classroom door also been locked, this would not have happened

There were 2 men off to the side as he went in. Who?

The guns doing most of the killings are from weapons coming in from our southern border. They are sold to drug gang members without background checks or the government knowing about such sales.

Emotional capitulation. The Country wasn’t founded on that BS.

If you can’t be trusted to be armed you should not be running around loose.
