That's the only reason. When someone (nearly always on the left) comes out wanting a ban (like 1994, which proved it did nothing to stop school shootings), gun sales will increase.

No, it's dumb. "NRA wants your babies to die" type tweet. Totally ridiculous. You've done nothing to provide ideas here. Just complain and post tweets.

Do you know why that is?

Another moronic tweet. You're doing one hell of a job with ridiculous comments!

Again (I've replied twice to you now the past 10 minutes), I've posted ideas. You've just complained.

Post Sandy Hook: The executive actions signed by President Obama were: Issuing a presidential memorandum to require federal agencies to make relevant data available to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). Addressing unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), that may prevent states from making information available to NICS. Improving incentives for states to share information with NICS. Directing the attorney general to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks. Proposing a rule making to give law enforcement authorities the ability to run a full background check on an individual before returning a seized gun. Publishing a letter from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to federally licensed gun dealers providing guidance on how to run background checks for private sellers. Starting a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign. Reviewing safety standards for gun locks and gun safes (Consumer Product Safety Commission). Issuing a presidential memorandum to require federal law enforcement to trace guns recovered in criminal investigations. Releasing a report analyzing information on lost and stolen guns and making it widely available to law enforcement authorities. Nominating an ATF director. Providing law enforcement authorities, first responders and school officials with proper training for armed attacks situations. Maximizing enforcement efforts to prevent gun violence and prosecute gun crime. Issuing a presidential memorandum directing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to research gun violence. Directing the attorney general to issue a report on the availability and most effective use of new gun safety technologies and challenging the private sector to develop innovative technologies. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes. Releasing a letter to health care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits them from reporting threats of violence to law enforcement authorities. Providing incentives for schools to hire school resource officers. Developing model emergency response plans for schools, houses of worship, and institutions of higher education. Releasing a letter to state health officials clarifying the scope of mental health services that Medicaid plans must cover. Finalizing regulations clarifying essential health benefits and parity requirements within insurance exchanges. Committing to finalizing mental health parity regulations. Starting a national dialogue on mental health led by Kathleen Sebelius, the secretary of health and human services, and Arne Duncan, the secretary of education.

He was not wearing body armor. CNN just reported it.

You provide nothing dude. Just BS.

I never said that. I've actually talked about my ideas on this forum.

Maybe we should find some actual precogs? Have a futuristic phone line that calls BACK in time? Again, moronic tweet.

WORLD WIDE - Worst school massacres in world history. The top 10 are all in other countries. Bath School in 1927 is 13th on the list. 15th on the list is VA Tech... school shooting, worst in US history, carried out with a .22 pistol and 9mm pistol. No AR-15 in sight. We can stop pretending it's just the United States. Evil will find a way. If that's using a knife, a truck, a bomb, etc.

There isn't a number to call when seeing someone walk into a school w/an AR-15? Ever heard of 911? Holy crap dude.

You tell me how we stop evil finding a way to kill someone. You want to ban the AR-15? Let me know what the worst school shooting was and what weapon(s) used to carry that one out. EVIL will always find a way. It just doesn't happen in America with shootings, it happens in Europe... Asia... S. America... Africa... with bombs, trucks, knives, etc. Out of the worst school shootings in the world, the United States has two of the top 15. Bath School (12th) and Va Tech (15th). AR-15's weren't used in either one.

Again, you're talking about our Founding Fathers who wrote the Bill or Rights.

Moronic tweet award goes to Betty Bowers for May 24th

I work at a high school of around 800 kids (5A school in Oklahoma, 6A is the largest). We have a hard point entrance. Always locked. The doors to the art building, gym and cafeteria? Always locked. Never unlocked. Not even now as school is out and admin is working. There are hundreds of cameras. If you get into the front door, there is a secondary LOCKED door. The front office has to let you in at all points. We used to have a SRO in the front, officer from my town. We are getting a new one next year as well as a security guard at the gate again. The high school my girls went to (same town), it's even harder to get into. There are ways to try and prevent these things as they play out. It won't stop all of them, but the DO stop them and have every year. Until you throw out ideas, no need for you to participate in this IMO.

What gun control do you want? Background checks on all gun purchases? Already a law. And "control women's bodies" - you mean abortion? Because most pro-life people don't care if a woman gets butt implants or a tattoo. It's 100% about abortion. Just be honest and stop saying "women's bodies".

I'm interested if that's really true. It was reported before he was wearing a "tactical vest" which you can get about anywhere. Buying body armor isn't as easy as you normally have to order it and it can take weeks to get.

It's not a football game dude. Winning and losing isn't a part of this.

And how do you think that would go? Around 400 deaths per year carried out by rifles (including the AR platform). This is out of 20,000,000+ AR style rifles in the country.

You're so full of crap dude. Where has ANY gun owner wanted that? It's BS by people like you. New flash... a study showed that less than 1% of firearms bought legally were used in a gun crime (Washington Post article). Legal permit owners 18x less likely to commit a violent crime than your regular Joe. WE aren't the problem. Until you people can understand that, nothing will change.

Solid response 👍🏻

I didn’t think you’d actual give me any ideas. I’ve posted ideas. Only thing I’ve heard here has been “ban assault weapons”. “You guys won”. Huh? The founding fathers won? The men who created the Bill or Rights?

First, I was explaining the idea that having armed people in a school doesn’t stop shooters is a fallacy. There is now reports of NO SRO at that school. Second... what “minor gun control measure” do you think would stop evil or criminals? I’d love to hear it.

I can post a ton of articles where a SRO stopped a school shooting. So it DOES happen often. https://www.police1.com/active-shooter/articles/police-school-resource-officer-disarmed-gunman-at-mich-high-school-AYGy3oOOy71kZtFV/
