Common sense gun regulations--need to be passed now.

[eddiew37]

Countries with strong gun control don’t have a mass shooting problem.

Other countries don’t have second amendment rights, so live with it bedwetter

and you live with more mass killings,,,,oh but you can always pray and offer speeches like the moron in the wh does

The mass killings are on you bedwetter. You are the kind that doesn't allow firearms to be used for defense. YOU!

those 20 dead kids should've been packing?

 

[Rustic]

Wrong...they did not stop mass killings...that is a lie.....dumb luck has kept them safe.....they have had numerous incidents of shooters in public spaces with guns....who simply didn't shoot more people, or did 't kill the ones they hit....


This is a lie that you keep pushing...

Please explain how Australian gun control laws kept these individuals from shooting more people...Australian gun crime is going up, not down, and they have been living on dumb luck since they banned guns...

• 3 August 1999 – La Trobe University shooting – Jonathan Brett Horrocks walked into the cafeteria in La Trobe university in Melbourne Victoria armed with a 38 caliber revolver handgun and opened fire killing Leon Capraro the boss and manager off the cafeteria and wounding a woman who was a student at the university.

If he had decided to keep shooting...would Australian gun laws have kept this from being a mass shooting?
Tell me...this doesn't count as a mass shooting...only because more of the victims didn't die...7 people shot......did Australian gun laws stop it from being a mass shooting?

• 26 May 2002 – A Vietnamese man walked into a Vietnamese wedding reception in Cabramatta Sydney, New South Wales armed with a handgun and opened fire wounding seven people.

Another one.....this shooter couldn't clear his rifle...so he only killed 2...the new standard for a mass shooting incident is 3 dead victims...so how did Australian gun laws keep this from being a mass shooting...rather than just dumb luck....?

• 21 October 2002 – Monash University shooting – Huan Xiang opened fire in a tutorial room, killing two and injuring five.

And had this guy decided to keep shooting.....would Australian gun laws have stopped him? And kept this from being a mass shooting?

• 18 June 2007 – Melbourne CBD shooting – Christopher Wayne Hudson opened fire on three people, killing one and seriously wounding two others who intervened when Hudson was assaulting his girlfriend at a busy Melbourne intersection during the morning peak.

  The offender then fired several more shots at officers as they emerged from the building to respond to the incident.

CAN'T stop killings BUT NO MASS KILLINGS Why won't the AH republicans and their right arm the NRA do more than pray for the victims???

So....you can't answer my question....you can't show how Australian gun control laws actually stopped all those shootings from becoming mass public shootings...so you don't even try to answer, because you can't......

Australian gun control did not stop mass shootings there.....dumb luck has been protecting them...and that can't last....

Countries with strong gun control don’t have a mass shooting problem. Fact.

Sure they do.

When was the last mass shooting in the UK?

People in UK have no right to firearm ownership… So there should be zero violence by your account

 

[Brain357]

The NRA is freedom's safest place. More NRA fewer democrats.

Yah, that's right. Slaughter them with your protected AR-15 before they can breed or get educated. You friggin baby killers.

You loons get nuttier by the day. When will you shoot up a school?

Nutty is making mass killing guns legal.

Funny coming from guys too scared to go outside without a gun. haha

[Brain357]

so many mass murders here and repub ah's are worried about a wall?

Perhaps you need to stop helping killers then.

You guys got rid of the assault weapon and magazine capacity limits. You threw gas on the fire. Your why we constantly have the new worse mass shooting.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

There are probably over 150 million semi-auto guns in circulation.
It is too late for the Nazicrats to confiscate guns.

The gun used just this week would have been banned under the law.

OK--so this year we have 18 school shootings, and it's not even March yet. Yesterday in Florida 15 young people with their entire lives in front of them, along with 2 school teachers trying to protect them were massacred. Then we have Las Vegas. Then a church in Texas were generations of family members were wiped out. We have a movie theatre in Aurora Colorado, then San Diego were a straw buyer purchased semi-automatics for a slaugther there, and Orlando, Florida another one. And Sandy Hook where 5 to 7 year olds were slaughtered.

People have called for better gun regulations in this country and it has continually fallen on deaf ears. Republicans are owned by the NRA and right wing gun extremists.

Here are my suggestions.
1. Ban semi-automatic weapons and 30 round gun clips.
2. People with existing semi-automatics & ammo be required to keep them in a locked secure gun case, and required to maintain an insurance liability policy on that weapon in order to keep them.
3. Parents of children & teenagers are required to keep all of their guns & ammo in locked secure gun safes, inaccessible at all times to their kids.
4. No private sales. If someone wants to sell their gun, it has to be dropped off at a licensed gun dealer for resale so a background check can be done.
5. Background checks including extended mental health checks before any purchase of a gun is made.
6. Straw buyers of guns, those who buy guns for others, be under the same prosecutable standards as those that pull the trigger.
7. Those that are on a no fly list, or FBI terrorist watch list not be able to purchase any guns or ammo.

If these simple regulations were in place--there would have never been a Las Vegas, a Sandy Hook, a Columbine massacre, a church in Texas, San Diego slaughter, Orlando, Florida massacre, a Virginia Tech etc. etc. etc., and 15 young kids and 2 teachers that were killed yesterday would be here today.

You won't convince Republicans to do any of this. They are OWNED by the NRA, and right wing gun extremists, and will fight (tooth & nail) on any new gun regulations. They are more interested in the donations they get from the NRA than keeping the public and our schools safe.

If you're tired of all the condolences & sympathies, then do something about it. Vote for Democrats in the midterm election cycle this coming November for common sense gun regulations.

You could do your wish list if you hadn’t had your ass kicked last election. But alas....

Well you're going to get your ass kicked come November 2018. The Republican party is going to have to be put on life support after it's over---

More Than 4,000 Women Say They Want to Run for Office Since Trump's Election

This was before the shooting, and I doubt House and Senate Republicans are going to fair well with women, for putting ZERO effort into protecting their kids when they're in school--

Disarming the law abiding gun owners would cause the Democrat Criminals to go on an orgy of killing.

Well you're going to get your ass kicked come November 2018. The Republican party is going to have to be put on life support after it's over---

Somehow your political handicapping just doesn’t impress me.

This is from Sept 2016

After their done with Trump--. Well lets just put is this way, this election is going to go down and make history for the landslide victory for Hillary Clinton.
.

After the midterm election cycle, you'll wish Hillary Clinton would have won--

Right now 33 house Republicans have announced their early retirements and will not seek reelection in November. The DNC has announced it's running candidates for every congressional seat in Texas. Ted Cruz is up for reelection this year, and he looks to be in early trouble and well behind in funding against his Democrat opponent. And with a 40% legal Hispanic voting population in that state, it's very possible he'll give up his seat.
There's A Democrat Running For Every Texas Congressional Seat Next Year

Democrats have been winning special elections in places all over this country where they normally don't win. Virgina, Florida last week gave up a state house seat that had been held by a Republican for a couple of decades. Wisconsin--the 10th district gave up a seat that had been held by Republicans for the last 17 years. Scott Walker stated this is a major wake up call for Republicans. It is. Scott Walker and Paul Ryan will be on the ballot in November. Doug Jones wins in Alabama. Trump's motor cade was booed last month in Atlanta Georgia, and Michael Wolff's book "Fire & Fury" is still the number 1 best selling book in this country, when most people ignore Presidential tell all books.
A Record Number of House Republicans Will Not Seek Re-Election in 2018
Scott Walker on Twitter

If Republicans can do 8 investigations into Benghazi--what do you think the above will do with Treason, Obstruction & Lies when they take over?

Republicans have awoken a sleeping giant in this country by electing Trump, and it's going to show up in numbers we've never seen in a midterm election before.

Republicans not doing anything about this school shooting, and addressing it with ONLY condolences and sympathies just adds fuel to a mega fire that's already burning in this country.

Doesn't answer his question pants shitter...

 

[Rustic]

Here are my suggestions.
1. Ban semi-automatic weapons and 30 round gun clips.

That first suggestion alone is why you people never get anywhere in your gun control efforts because your definition of "common sense" is anything but. What you want is practically full confiscation. Pretty much every gun out there is semi-automatic, so one, gun owners rightfully never trust you loons when you say you want "common sense" controls because we know you really mean is no guns at all and two, banning all semi-autos would be unconstitutional.

And you have the nerve to refer to others as extremists.

Yep, And furthermore their true intentions is an all out firearm confiscation.
They cannot tolerate anybody they disagree with
