Countries that don`t have 300 million of these OBJECTS don`t have the problem that we do. The more there are of these OBJECTS the easier it is for crazies to get them. That`s a 9th grade Economics lesson.
That`s all you got? Why don`t I know anyone who used a gun to defend themselves if this happens thousands of times a day? Take your time answering so you don`t post something stupid again.If 90 million people used guns to defend themselves since I was born I would know a couple hundred of them. I don`t know a single one. You can`t be that gullible I hope.
And MOST people will never know anyone killed in a mass shooting....so by your failed logic, they don't occur.
YesCountries that don`t have 300 million of these OBJECTS don`t have the problem that we do. The more there are of these OBJECTS the easier it is for crazies to get them. That`s a 9th grade Economics lesson.
I'm so glad you made that failed argument.....now, here's where you failed miserably........
In the United states we have a thing called the 2nd Amendment. (look it up)
In a nutshell, it empowers average citizens with the means to repeal government tyranny.
in the course of history, hundreds of millions of unarmed, innocent people have been liquidated by tyrants.
The more of these objects, the more capable a population is to defend itself, and the less likely tyranny can arise.
Name ONE country where an unarmed population can itself, defend itself in the case that the government turns tyrannical.
And before you knee-jerk and say that can't happen, I remind you of 3 recent cases where it did just that....China, Venezuela and russia ALL of which have dictators now and vast, unarmed populations.
So you see, there is a price to pay for freedom. But overall it is well worth it even if tragic for a very small number.
Now, the actual number of people killed in mass shootings is statistically extremely low. You're more likely to be struck by lightning. Afraid of lightning?
So as anyone can see, your argument is weak at beast, silly in fact.
You and morons like yourself feel it is better for 300,000,000 people should be at risk rather than understand that in a FREE society, there will always be some violence.
Again, rather than focusing on OBJECTS, If you really give a damn about others safety, which is seriously in doubt, then go read post #93 of this thread.
Let’s all hug and sing kumbaya!
Or is your solution more along the lines of locking up all black people?
YesCountries that don`t have 300 million of these OBJECTS don`t have the problem that we do. The more there are of these OBJECTS the easier it is for crazies to get them. That`s a 9th grade Economics lesson.

We need 330 million guns to keep 320 million people safe
Doesn’t seem to be working too well
11:15 p.m. last night. Twelve dead, and they are still counting. Dead include the gunman, who went into a local Country-Western bar & grill having it's weekly College Night and began by shooting the security guard and cashier, then entered and began spraying bullets at college students with his rapid fire gun. Twelve dead include one of the first deputies on the scene.
Thousand Oaks is considered one of the safest communities in the country. Just like Parkland was.
People, it is time we stopped talking and started doing something about this. It is beyond ridiculous that we are no longer safe to go grocery shopping, pray in our church, go to yoga class, or to a bar to dance. Or to work. Or to school.
Something has to be done to stop this. Not just talk this time. It is time to actually do something. January approaches. Make sure your legislators know what you think will help make this country SAFE AGAIN.
Sorry, but you grown ups aren't doing a very good job of it, from the look of things.I shouldn't have opened this. I forgot how chillingly depressing the replies would be.
Perhaps you should just go crawl back into your “safe space” with your crayons and coloring books and stuffed animals, and leave it to us grown-ups who can deal with reality to take care of things that matter.
Let’s face it
We are a gun loving society. We value our guns more than we value our children. Putting up with mass slaughters is the price we pay for our second amendment freedoms
White kids were the targets.A country bar?
So Republicans were the targets?
Was the gunman a Democrat?
Was this caused by WATERS AND PELOSI?
These are all very relevant questions that we must ask all over the news immediately.
Let’s face it
We are a gun loving society. We value our guns more than we value our children. Putting up with mass slaughters is the price we pay for our second amendment freedoms
Or maybe some of realize that if they gave up their guns it wouldn't make one whit of a difference in how many kids are killed
and FYI the people killed in CA were not kids they were adults
Gee, I wonder if the gun man had a drivers license who could have purchased his gun in Nevada or any other state with loose gun laws....Duh.CA has the strictest gun laws in the countryWhat laws do you think I'm proposing? If gun control isn't the answer, there must be another answer, because these mass shootings are not acceptable and they are not normal everyday business as usual in any other developed country in the world.I am actually very liberal in my views but not Progressive...
The issue with those like the OP is when they can not get their way they want big brother to fix it and for that to happen they will need enough votes in the Senate along with the White House and States to approve a new amendment which will never happen.
So as Old Lady pushes her agenda of more strict Federal Laws the reality is they will not stop a damn thing because criminals do not obey laws ever!
And yet California has some of the strictest laws in the nation, so why did they fail to protect those people?
CA does not have that strict of gun laws, the US law is simply lax.

They were adults because children are not allowed to drink in barsLet’s face it

They were kids just starting their lives
We have to do better with our mentally ill population, that's for sure.I think we need to stop spreading hate on CNN and MSNBC.11:15 p.m. last night. Twelve dead, and they are still counting.

We can do that.
Laws only work on the law-abiding. Not on the lawless.
Get rid of liberal judges and liberal politicians...along with their liberal laws that make it easier for crazy people to still be on our streets.
Doesn’t California have the best gun laws?
This couldn’t have happened in California because liberals have made California a perfect state.

It is Nevada and Arizona fault... Wait, it is Trump fault... Wait, it is Bush jr. fault... Wait, is Hitler allow?
We need to outlaw Trenchcoats!
If you don’t agree, you hate children!!
You all know that I believe in super duper gun restriction/confiscation and to pretty much go full Australia on your ass. But in this thread, I am keeping that idea on the shelf, because you all apparently think there must be another way to stop this mass shooting violence that is becoming more and more frequent. We just had eleven killed in synagogue in Pittsburgh less than two weeks ago. Now a dozen people in So. Cal out for a little fun with friends at a country western bar.What gun control law that CA doesn't have would have prevented this shooting?What laws do you think I'm proposing? If gun control isn't the answer, there must be another answer, because these mass shootings are not acceptable and they are not normal everyday business as usual in any other developed country in the world.California has some of the strictest gun laws, so what do you propose that can fix the issue?
A proper LIbEral response would be to call for even more of the same poison that is causing the sickness in the first place.

And why do states with very lax gun control laws have much lower murder rates than CA?
It ain't guns the American society has a cancer that is spreading and no where is the disease more evident than in the ultra violent urban areas and the violence and crime that emanates from them in numbers large enough to skew the murder rate for the entire country
Unless maybe y'all DON'T care. If we don't focus on guns themselves, which you seem so sure is not the problem, what ELSE could the problem be and how can it be fixed?
