A disturbed young man with all the red flags of a mass shooter cannot be stopped by a politician solution. The kid needed proper mental healthcare and law enforcement intervention, not politics.
... where do you think a lot of money for mental healthcare, and the entire concept of law enforcement come form? FFS it is called LAW ENFORCEMENT, how in the hell do you think we get laws in the first place?
We have laws in place that make what he did illegal.....do you think adding a couple more well written statutes is going to stop him? Do you think voting for the right corrupt dumbass who promises to “work hard for the American people” is going to stop him?
The truth is, the political system has become inadequate to deal with school shootings. Our children need protection NOW. They need someone to say “nothing is going to happen to you on my watch”. They can’t wait on some legislation that hopes to move the needle a little bit on school shootings in 5 years. They need a political system that builds in common ground, not one that exploits differences for votes.......that is why it is inadequate.

My position has been that there needs to be a ban on all semi and fully automatic weapons combined with a buyback/confiscation program, period. I don't care if people like it or it is popular.

And now you are almost to where I am, the situation is completely hopeless.
Yea, the right never does that. Four years spent investigating ONE tragedy NINE times so, save it. And who was the FIRST person to make political comments after San Bernadino and Pulse shootings? Trump.
JOhn, the kid has been indoctrinated with hate. She is spouting stuff that doesnt even make sense. She just hates Trump, that is all she knows, but doesnt really know why.
Wonder if she would scream about a daily Military Presence at each school.
That cost money though.
Passing some "Touchy Feely" crap law doesn't "Protect", But it "Feels oh so Good" at the time. Like an orgasm. Maybe that would make for some "TEMPORARY CALM".
More education for the anti gun rights left and their ignorance about firearms These psychos who have used AR-15s do so for the psychological effects of their appearance. Most firearms sold in America have equal or greater firing rates to the AR-15
All the rates shown here including those of the AR-15 and military automatic are THEORETICAL rates. Gassing, misfires, jams, and the individual all affect actual performance.
Widely popular handguns like the Glock 17 easily can fire approximately 550 rounds per minute rate. Given magazine limitations it still can fire at twice the rate of an AR-15. Using 10 round magazines which restrictive states like CA permit or the more widely accepted 17 round magazines a determined murderer with limited training could easily kill 40-50 people per minute A practiced shooter with a Bolt action rifle with a 3 cartridge chamber capacity can fire about 25-30 rounds per minute (some have achieved even higher rates) The Winchester Super X3 12 gauge Shotgun has a capability of more than 500 rounds per minute.
And remember when Joe Biden recommended that an old fashioned pump shotgun (which remains the most popular sold) with a 5-8 shell capacity can fire up to 500 shells per minute if the targets are at close range
All this information which is never shared by either the media or anti-gun rights politicians would dramatically change the debate if it was actually part of our national conversation. Unfortunately the media share in this assault on our rights and thus will never be honest in their presentations
. @ NRA These kids are going to grow up and destroy you
Florida is a purple state, and these high school kids and their peers will be voting in the next presidential election.
Because it's important to politicize an event like this.
This is a political issue.
No wonder we can’t solve this problem.......

Every fucking thing you listed is political, and I noticed you left out such a disturbed person's easy access to firearms as an issue, but whatever.
only to those who politicize everything.

It’s not at all hopeless. Individuals and communities need to get off their asses and do something about it instead of waiting on DC.
I disagree.
This is a tragic event, and inserting a hot button issue into the dialogue before half the funerals have taken place is replete politicization.
You really should be ashamed of politicizing this tragedy.
Yea, the right never does that. Four years spent investigating ONE tragedy NINE times so, save it. And who was the FIRST person to make political comments after San Bernadino and Pulse shootings? Trump.

We could say the same of John.
lol. Actually, I know a lot of the reasons Trump is a worthless , unqualified president*.
Do you know a lot of women named John?
How long has Trump been a policy maker?
Blame Congress piece of shit who have been worthless for 30 years, blame your local politicians.
Blame the shooter.
of course she does....she is in pain.
why are you using her pain to promote your hatred of Trump?
that is disgusting on your part
Because it's important to politicize an event like this.
Guess we can blame Obama for Las Vegas, Pulse, Church Shooting in Texas, San Bernadino, Sandy Hook....
Don't hurt yourself. You named 5 examples of a mass shooting under Obama. Two of the 5 (Las Vegas, Texas church) took place under Trump.
you apparently missed the point, but not surprised
Las Vegas didn't happen on Obama's watch.
Ah yes....it is so important to blame this on Trump...and the media whores at CNN set this all up.
Wonder if she would scream about a daily Military Presence at each school.
That cost money though.

Kids say the darndest things.
You know... They had semi-automatic rifles back in the 1950's.\
But not the internet or social media.
So, you agree it's the internet, or social media... not the semi automatic rifle?
Yeah, my father had one, I own it now
My father gave me his lever action Winchester 30/30, I love it!

I say ban them all.
Now that’s sexy
Goddamn you are old. In less than a second I can google millions of sexier images than a fully clothed woman holding a rifle for no reason.
I did
until
you did
see what Trump and the GOP have done ?
And our compassionate President never ceases to amaze:
Trump says he is skipping golf to honor the Florida shooting victims: report
Gee......I am sure those poor children feel so special that he gave up the time from the Golf Course just for them. I know I would. /s
Oh the sacrifices this man makes.
let us not forget, his sacrifice and own personal Vietnam was not getting AIDS
it's more than Obama ever did when a school shooting would happen on his watch.
