Ball Security Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 As much as I shat on the Uvalde police, I commend the responders in Nashville. It appears that more children could have been killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears that more children could have been killed. I guess 3 children that are 9 years old and 3 adults are the acceptable price to pay until a good guy with a gun shows up to stop the threat. If only there was something else that could be done... (and I'm not saying you agree with my first statement either - I am talking about the gun nutters) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll get gun control a lot sooner than you think. They will pass legislation barring trans people from buying guns citing it as a mental illness before they control guns in general.

I hope they do it. We can either take it to the courts (yeech!) or use that same law to **** on the lawmakers (e.g. California with their gun laws).

There have been 16 mass shootings in the past week. Sixteen. Only one was even news. Most people have pretty much accepted that mass shootings are only worth caring about if it’s kids or a double digit body count (or MAYBE a hate crime). This guy is only one step further than everyone else. Edit: Actually, upon closer review, 5 of the 16 mass shootings in the past week (including TN) had juvenile victims, so I guess kids getting shot isn’t even newsworthy In most cases.

I don't know if its apathy or escapism but I'm guilty of one of these things. Honestly I'm not sure what, if I felt any at this point, more my own personal outrage would do. What worries me is what I will do when my baby is school age. I cant keep her in the house forever. I don't even feel like type the rest of my point. ****s making my head fuzzy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergasun Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Why don't we vote on a Constituitional Amendment to an individial right to firearms? Or at the very least semi-automatic firearms. Seems like the "no-gun" side should already be pushing this. "We're not gonna do anything... criminals will be criminals" is such a BS thing to tell the 7 families of the victims. Yes, the shooter is also a victim if we don't care about restricting guns. Somehow other countries ban guns and still maintain armies of defense to defend themselves.

Or at the very least semi-automatic firearms. 1). First, it would take a 2/3 vote, of both houses of Congress. We can't even get a majority vote, to close "the gun show loophole": a proposal that's supported by, I believe, 92% of Americans, and 80% of NRA members. 2). Then it has to be ratified by 38 states. Donald Trump carried 25 states in 2020. We can't even get 38 states to ratify a constitutional amendment that states that the US government can't discriminate against women. 3). And if you think "they're comin' fer yer guns!" Is a meme right now? Just attempt to pass such an amendment. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 These cops are heros the way they just keep pressing forward. Good on them. Still UNREAL that this footage is from an elementary school.

Somehow other countries ban guns and still maintain armies of defense to defend themselves. Because amending the Constitution requires a 2/3 majority in both houses of Congress AND 3/4 of the states, and so any proposed amendment would go nowhere because 1/3 of Congress and the Senate represent states where the pro-gun position is dominant. The FAR more likely scenario is maybe in 30 years the SCOTUS won't have a far-right conservative majority and Heller is overturned. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergasun Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Who cares what is likely to pass. What is likely to piss off the other side. We need to have open debates and discussions. Do people really think foreign enemies or a foreign country will kill them more than a domestic enemy? Or do we need to be armed to partake in some "revolution"? Those ideas are dumb.

Spaceman Spiff Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 1 minute ago, Fergasun said: Do people really think foreign enemies or a foreign country will kill them more than a domestic enemy? Yes. Every old GOP Boomer out there still worries about a 9/11 and doesn't flinch when something like yesterday occurs. I hate hearing old GOP Boomer relatives talk about things like Islamic terrorism and things like MS13, which is the biggest boogeyman of them all. If you're not gangbanging, MS13 doesn't give a **** about you. And yet, they're still more fearful of that than a white person with a gun and a manifesto. People don't want to change who they are or what they believe, largely. They want everyone else to change or adopt their views because that's easier. Takes some courage and introspection to admit you might have been wrong about something, that you might have been part of the problem and come around to a different point of view. Much, much easier to dig your heels in and double down on your views no matter what. And in this particular case, there's a lot of people out there who are willing to stick their head in the sand and double down. 2 minutes ago, The Evil Genius said: Sigh. **** this ****ing guy.
