We should stop having a national panic attack every time there's a shooting incident

[Hang on Sloopy]

Republicans always fall back to the ‘mental health’ redoubt, but never follow through.

Something as simple as expanding Medicaid – which Republican-controlled states refuse to so – would ensure that young adult men have access to affordable mental healthcare.

Psychiatrists don't take medicaid. They've been squeezed by insurance companies

Brainwashing these kids with wokeness for decades has created a lot of young mental libturd nut cases

 

[Esdraelon]

Yea. Who cares about a bunch of children getting killed?

It certainly isn't those who shout down the supporters of hardening security at school campuses. They're NEVER going to get rid of the guns and if their goal truly is to save lives then the easy solution that is supported by the "opposition" is to come together and generate ideas for keeping insane scum from getting into the campuses with firearms. Anyone who shouts that idea down IS NOT interested in saving lives.

Fine with me. Go ahead.

 

[Lesh]

Yea...because it's no big deal that 19 kids get gunned down in school

This isn't ever going to end, so the best thing we can do is stop panicking about it.

You have to remember that the one thing that has always led news stories is, "If it bleeds, it leads." That's true of CNN (Communist News Network) and MSNBC (Main Stream News By Communists), as well as the others.

Each school shooting is a Democrat opportunity to push a agenda.

Every week the equivalent of a mass shooting in Chicago is to be ignored because it does not fit the Democrat narrative.

I am for expanding mental health coverage for everyone. It is worth the investment because the people who are currently bat shit crazy will hopefully become productive members of society. It's a net gain.

 

[Magnus]

You know why we will never agree to ANYTHING you ass fuckers want?

BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT TRUSTWORTHY.

You fucking kuunts tried to have the SCOTUS declare the right a "collective" not an individual right. You tried to wholesale take all our guns.

We don't trust you with ANYTHING so we are doing NOTHING but repealing or we are going to war.

Get it?

You worthless lying twatburgers deserve all your "gun control" taken away and some of you need to be EXECUTED.

That is all. Back off or war.

That was a rhetorical question, you fucking retard.

Now, go burn a cross or whatever it is you stupid KKK types do.

 

[cnm]

they're not yours either so take your sanctimonious cocksucking crocodile bullshit tears and shove it up your fucking asshole.

 

[BS Filter]

Yea. Who cares about a bunch of children getting killed?

Democrats certainly don't. Democrats run Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Baltimore, and children are shot every day. Not a word is mentioned.

 

[SweetSue92]

Yea. Who cares about a bunch of children getting killed?

A school shooting is a tragedy.

The panic is when you propose that teachers, on top of everything else we do, should be armed. Or we should have a full time armed security guard in every elementary school in the US (!). Or we should ban guns (!).

We run to Moral Panics as a matter of course now. Right and Left. See: groomers. See: covid. It's stupid and exhausting.

 

[Burgermeister]

Maybe conservatives would care enough to do something if they were a bunch of fetuses that got slaughtered?

Over 1,600 fetuses are getting slaughtered every day in the US. Has nothing to do with guns.

 

[Godboy]

No idea that any one thing can or will stop our children from being butchered, but there are lots of things to reduce the loss of lives.

You guys havent come up with any ideas that would work, short of taking away our constitutional rights, which is obviously a non starter.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

This isn't ever going to end, so the best thing we can do is stop panicking about it.

You're at least half right. Sound decisions are rarely if ever made by people in a highly emotional state.

There are ways to seriously reduce the number of these events without infringing on anyone's rights but until democrats are willing to approach it with that in mind there's not going to be any progress.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

We should care, but also we should realize that all ideas being proposed to stop the shootings are worse than if we did nothing.

You are peddling ignorance and nonsense.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

Exactly. A few kids shot here, a few kids shot there... what's the harm, eh?

Nothing you can imagine much less pass is going to prevent kids from getting harmed or killed.

The best we can possibly do is to reduce the number of such shootings and the numbers of killed and wounded.

Gun bans won't solve the problem, they'll just make it that much worse.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Agreed. It is just a part of life in America now.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

Conservatives are lying, dishonest scum – it’s just refreshing to see some rare honesty from the right, that conservatives couldn’t care less about children being slaughtered in their classrooms.

Lying doesn't help your case.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

You mean all ideas being CONSIDERED are worse.
Actually hardening the schools is the common sense approach that would stop this & they refuse to consider it

Should we also harden the malls and grocery stores and concert venues?
