Laws are usually created because someone ruined something for everyone else. This shite is just gonna keep on happening everywhere by 1 lunatic at a time until we figure out how to keep these weapons out of the hands of those particular people. Bringing God back into peoples lives is not a viable solution. We’re never going to solve evil in this world no matter how hard we try. Something strategic needs to be done that will be satisfactory for almost everyone.

Also just a side thought for those that think their weapons are protecting them from a tyrannical government. It would be like taking a knife to a gun fight except your ARs are the knives.

The deadliest attack to date on a school occurred in Bath Township MI in 1927, 43 children and teachers were killed by a homemade bomb.

We need MORE guns in the hands of good people


Isn't it funny how the liberal press likes to write about how the gun is the reason to implement more gun control and never write about the millions of guns that have not been used to shoot anyone? Liberals have no desire to undertake the process of dealing with the one who uses the gun in a crime. They just think the answer is confiscation of guns. But really they just want a police state to rule over the people.

Do you know how quickly the left would say that white supremacy is a mental illness? Like overnight.

And literally everything can be white supremacy now. Math is white supremacy.

So they will label whatever group they want as having a mental illness and at higher risk to commit a mass shooting and then that’s it, they can take whatever guns they want.

Imagine if they had this law before January 6th. You would absolutely have senators calling for all trump voters to be stripped of their guns to “protect democracy”

ITT: extreme overreactions from all spectrums of political leanings and legit arguments being brigaded because people are upset.

The truth is that the society is sick and needs to be treated and people don’t want to admit what the medication should be.

guns to protect ourselves from the government.


Let me know how you plan to fight a 19 year old in a room 1000 miles with his hands on a joystick of a Predator drone. The sad truth is you are already outgunned by the government and no amount of .223 or 7.62 is going to save you. The sooner you accept that, the sooner we can have a meaningful dialogue about violence in American society.

On an anti-depressant???? No gun for you
On adderall for work/school? No gun for you
Saw a psychiatrist in an Inpatient facility once? No gun for you
You're a hardcore MAGA guy, that could be seen as some mental instability to some people??? No gun for you




And if they ask what would you do someone who kills your child if you caught them, any answer other than let the police and courts take care of it would get you on the No Gun List.

No way should we let the Government determine who can and can't have a gun.

I think more people are concerned about children getting slaughtered at schools by semi automatic rifles than junkies overdosing

Make simple reasonable arguable laws like

Really you say? Buddhism is an agnostic religion. Hindu believes in a bunch of different gods. Both are two of the oldest religions on earth. I don't recall many of them committing all kinds of violence.

Exactly

Doing “something” really does nothing but satisfy one’s vanity. No one who wants “do something” actually gives a shite about victims of random violence. To a man they only care about being able to say they care. Bunch of damn narcissists you all are.

back to the original question, what percentage of schools would need to be shot up before you would ask congress to pass more strict gun legislation? Your answer is “Don’t care. Won’t work.” Thanks for your input.


Why is it straight to more strict gun regulation? Why are you skipping past the actual problem?

So let's solve the actual problem instead of beating around the bush and trying to stop a byproduct of the problem.

What's your point? Resistance is futile, so let's just get rid of our guns? What we do have is enough to keep the government from going full blown retard. Even your average man with a gun doesn't want to have to fight a man with a knife.

The US is both one of the most religious and most violent first world countries. Almost all of the least violent countries in the world are more secular than we are. So if you insist that it's a religious thing, we need less of it, not more.



Oh, I agree wholeheartedly. Religion IS the problem, but that’s why God isn’t trying to give man religion as He is Faith and a very real relationship with Him. It’s been the plan since the very beginning. Religion is that which nailed Christ to the cross.

When I mean we need God, I don’t mean we need religion. I mean we need Him and His perfect plan for mankind, His laws, His will, and His way for mankind, not religious affiliation or ritual. That’s one of the problems in that it tricks and deceives man into a false sense of righteousness he thinks he somehow earns. That’s certainly not ever going to be the solution.

Don’t confuse self righteous religious affiliation with true heart felt personal relationship. They weren’t the same when Christ walked the earth, and they aren’t the same today.
