    Yep.

    A new AWB is coming, this time without a sunset. Trump used to be for such a ban so I am just waiting for him to flip on the issue. The wave of wishy washy Republicans folding in his wake will be tremendous. I want to be wrong but I really don't think I am.

    When it passes, and this still happens, then what?
    Always wanted to get into lever guns.

    But on a serious note, I have no idea. They may pass a ban on selling new “assault rifles”. I would be surprised if they did an outright ban. Not even sure how they would decide to enforce that

    Also with the last AWB did that ban the sale and manufacture of new rifles? Meaning were you able to keep whatever you had before that ban? I was a kid for much of the last one

    All of the warning signs were there and they want to ban the gun. I went to high school with a kid that murdered my friends sister. Looking back I could see the crazy in his eyes years before. I don't blame the weapon he used, I blame his mental state
    If guns never existed they'd use knives, bombs, bludgeons etc.

    No, there's not a ban coming.
    Obama couldn't do it after Sandy hook .
    Trump won't even try.

    Let's not start another overpriced, self inflicted shortage.

    Agreed, though I will say when they get their majorities in both houses and the POTUS, I think we are doomed, when that will happen, who knows, but at some point in the future it will.

    This is another sad day. What has happened in our society? Lack of parenting due to having to work to stay afloat, general lack of respect for life of our young, music , video games, movies ? Who knows. I do know that we need to stop taking money from our schools for quality teaching and programs.
    I don't think the school should raise our children but should provide a decent, safe environment.

    Yes we as a people need to get our gov. To give us back funding for quality mental health care.

    This is a n difficult pill to swallow and.problem to solve.

    Someone tries this in ANY Israeli school and they are toast! We need to start guarding our kiddos. We guard our congress, potus, scotus, and our money. Why not the kiddos? Trained, bad-ass formers. I know a bunch that have volunteered and been rejected.

    We can think fat Ted Kennedy for emptying the mental hospitals with the bill he got passed. These are the people we now call "homeless". Its almost impossible now to get a family member committed, thanks to that fat demonCRAP bastard!

    In this case, since the copycat school shooter survived, how about a quick trial, and upon conviction, execution within two weeks in a televised, public execution by firing squad?

    Schools lost any power to discipline students back around 1970, the schools only recourse is to suspend or remove and hope the parents will deal with it. It was decided that parents should only have that power. Unfortunately, not all children are raised in families that show a strong sense of discipline. Today, with so many single parents or parents that both work, or those that just don't want to have to deal with it, many children are not learning that actions have consequences. Society itself is setting up many kids, by pushing them through schools with very little effort on the students part. Children, more and more these days, become withdrawn due more to what's going on at home, or not going on, that develop who they are.

    I don't really have an answer to the problems of today, but I see more and more where children are left to try to develop themselves as a person and it would be difficult, to say the least, to fit in.

    That needed to happen. There were many people locked up for no good reason. The ability to have a person committed for the only reason is that you had the money and influence to make it happen? That is slavery.

    The way now is not perfect, but there are ways to get people put away, but when it happens, they need / deserve for it to happen.

    To All,

    Given that this mass murderer/MONSTER had made several terroristic threats to be a "professional school shooter", a "mass killer" & reportedly said that he was going to "go shoot people" at his old HS. too.
    (Here in TX, making a terroristic threat can be a felony.)

    What MORE do we have to know to "sit this creep down" with LE & find out if he's just a BIGMOUTH and/or a CLEAR DANGER to others.

    yours, satx

    Then deal with it, Deemus. The crazy bastids you call homeless are the very ones fat Ted let loose, to become societies at large problem. And Ted Kennedy never did ANYTHING that didn't somehow benefit HIS fat ass!
