  1. Oh come on. Fergie is a top 5 female singer and that anthem ranked up there with.....nope.....can't do it.
  2. I think it's a start and put forth in the right way it might. 18, 21, 30, it really doesn't matter the age. Education before possession, licensed and registered ownership, periodic training (yearly class? every five years?), etc. There are lots of ways to control the flow of guns into society and even who has access to them. Yes, criminals will still be able to get guns and those that are willing to plan long term to cause some sort of massive event will slip through the cracks, but putting up barriers combined with more mental health support (in school and out) will go a long way.
  3. I am not certain I can find a study that "focuses on trained and vetted school staff", I am not sure one has been done. There are, however, countless studies on what happens when guns themselves are on school property and the unfortunate results. Because of the specific qualifier you are adding I'm going to pass on this one. To your second point "The narrative that banning AK's will address these shootings is dangerous." It's not dangerous in the slightest. I have not heard a single person say that banning AK's will "address" or solve the shootings, But putting into place policies that individually may not make a large dent, but collectively work to address the problem is not dangerous at all.
  4. None is not only my opinion but the evidence from countless studies and research. Arguing that guns in schools is a positive thing and prevents / detours gun violence / deaths is not only proven to be false, but a dangerous narrative to push. You want to argue about merits and facts, that you need proof before you will believe a certain thing, but here is a perfect example of you contradicting yourself just to antagonize. Please stop, it demeans all your other posts.
  5. It's not a practice. It's "legal" in 18 states as long as multiple hurdles are jumped through. And the vast majority of the time the allowed teacher in question is bringing a gun to school for training or a ceremony. (Think ROTC). Having your science teacher or math teacher carrying a concealed handgun on their person is an awful idea. None is the correct answer.
  6. None. It's a stupid argument to even suggest allowing teachers to bring guns into schools is a good idea. Seriously, you weaken everything you argue for by mentioning it. Just stop.
  7. Did you even read the article? Republicans hype up that Dem's are going to cut off their guns and thus they spike in sales. Republicans come into office and nobody worries their guns are going to be restricted.
  8. This could be both one of the dumbest things I have ever read and one of the best political spins ever.
  9. So the Cavs essentially got Brooklyn first pick, Jae Crowder -> Rodney Hood, George Hill, Clarkson, and Nance Jr for Kyrie, a 1st.
  10. Trade Anderson and they can sign LeBron and CP3
  11. 2018-2019: 31.8 million 2019-2020: 34 million 2020-2021: 36.5 million 2021-2022: 38.9 million That's scary
  12. If he is staring on our WC team in 2022......I'm not sure how I feel about that.
  13. Average age of our team last night: 25 years # of those that will be playing in the 2022 world cup? 0 Total waste of time.
