Another start to the school year, another shooting; nothing will change

Ya think? But didn't you just warn us

What am I wishing for? A competent admin response when there's a direct threat of violence to a school? How is that so dangerous?
You just aren’t looking at this rationally and reasonably. We all should be more like Luther. He understands that on the issue of Schools and local PDs investigating potential threats to possibly prevent acts of violence, there is no good solution.

But on the issue of ensuring that Americans have the freedom to exercise a right guaranteed to them in the constitution, while also preventing criminals from committing crimes using firearms, he understands that the solution is easy and obvious.

Why can’t you see this!!!
 
Maybe but how many Drs were held accountable for the OxiC epidemic? Parents are responsible for what they put in their kids mouth.
I agree but we put quite a bit of faith in our Drs. We all don't have medical degrees. For the most part Americans are stupid. Most people do what the Dr tells them to do without question. Drs make bank on prescriptions they write. That should be illegal, imo.

My initial reaction is yes, Drs should bear some responsibility but then what about the FDA? They approve the poisons and approve the labels the Drs go by. You'd think the CDC or some other .gov agency would have done a study by now on any possible links between these ADD, anti-depressant drugs and random mass murders.

I don’t disagree with you on holding parents responsible for being irresponsible. What I’m trying to figure out is where you (LG) draws the line.

So far per your own posts the parents are only responsible if their kid uses one of their guns to commit mass murder and not responsible if the kid uses something else in the house. Is that your position?

@lawgator1 in case you missed this. I'd really like to hear your thoughts.
 
Everyone is having a civil conversation about what is the problem and how to solve it and you bring this?????? Pathetic.
That's aimed at Dem voters working on the same intellectual level as those that thought drinking chloroquine phosphate was the same as hydroxychloroquine as a covid treatment.

Which circles me back to my first point. Fighting guns with more guns is an absurd solution. We wouldn’t need them in the first place if they weren’t so easily attainable. No need to save the children from something that isn’t there. Politicians and the NRA have you all brainwashed. The propaganda machine is doing its job and filling their pockets with billions while our children die. But hey enjoy your guns!
easily attainable? it is more difficult than ever to get guns, but school shootings have gone up.

I am 35, but I remember there being a couple people who would have their hunting rifles slung up in their truck. and I was at a small private school in Chattanooga. Willing to bet there used to be dozens of rifles at this high school, and none today.

access isn't the issue. culture and parenting is.

My father said they brought their rifles into shop at school so they could learn to repair, clean and service them.

Busy day but will make it a point to return to this tonight, especially as it does seem that there is at least a general consensus that if the parents are the source of the gun then in this case there needs to be some accountability.

NRA, NRA, NRA.... you're right the politicians have YOU brainwashed.

NRA isn't even in the top 100 of lobbyist, stop buying into your politicians and news as if it's the holy grail of truth.

There are over 20,000 gun laws as of today.... please name another that would stop this kid.

Define "easily attainable".


You say not fighting guns with guns but this kid stopped shooting and laid down when approached by a guy with a gun.......

No, there is no general consensus... what you are talking about isn't how any of this works. Which is why your parents won't be held accountable for the bodies in your basement.

A friend and I once did a report on the progress of weapons. We had archery, black powder and modern firearms represented. Assistant principal (who knew us well) looked us over and asked where we were going and if the guns were loaded. We said we hadn't even brought ammo. He gave us another look over and kept walking. (We got an A btw)
