I have no problem with a commentary on this issue when these far too often events take place.

Right, I honestly know you don't.

But if anyone speaks up from a gun rights side they'll be banned, reprimanded, or piled on by the rest of the community who has gotten away with the mudslinging for a very long time.

Laws help. If you're expecting a perfect solution,  you'll never get it. 

If murder was legal, there'd be a lot more of it.  My ex is probably fortunate that it is against the law, lol. 

And there really is no push to ban all guns.

Maybe that’s the case and this issue cannot be discussed civilly.  But, IMO, it is certainly worth discussion

One dead, 22 shot. 3 people arrested and under investigation.

8 life-threatening injuries. 

9 people were transferred to the Children's Hospital in KC, nothing on the ages of those that were taken there.

Don't disagree at all. It just doesn't seem fit for a Bills message board

[Dr. K]

Mental health issues are a problem in every country, but no other country on the planet has the problems with gun deaths that the U.S. has. You can't solve this through "better access to mental health treatment" though I am all for that. 

 

350 million weapons in the hands of citizens are the problem. It's too easy for bad actors to murder the people around them. The numbers can't be reduced unless you reduce the number, availability, and lethality of the weapons in our country.

Fair because everyone I know who is 100% emotionally stable and has a well functioning and healthy life is prone to violence.

Stop making it political just to 🍆💦

Y'all need to avoid the politics and go to PPP. No one gives a ***** about anyone's political opinions on this. Go there to the cesspool.

Impossible,  800 cops ( good guys with guns) were there. Plus Missouri has one of the highest gun ownership rates in the country ( more good guys with guns?)

[Doc Brown]

Wow.  Terrible day on what was supposed to be a joyous occasion.  I pray for all those kids being treated in the hospital right now.

Raising our children to be decent human beings might help too... just a thought

The only video I've found showing the suspect being apprehended.  

[Mark Vader]

Did this take place during or after the parade?

 

Where was the location of the shootings?

Nah, that requires responsibility which is something we are great at passing off.

And this is why I rarely go to large public gatherings. Security is for show and really can't stop any of this. At least they caught the people this time. Didn't prevent it from happening though.

[Warcodered]

Terrible and sad news, hope for a speedy recovery for those injured.

 

 

I think we can all agree on the solution here though, never let the Chiefs win a Super Bowl again. 😉

Pretty sure the “good guys with guns” argument was put to bed in Uvalde when over 70 good guys with guns just stood in the hallway doing nothing. That said, the vast majority of police and other first responders in these situations run towards the danger trying to make a difference.

One of the suspects was stopped by two random people today. Chased him down, tackled him, and held him until the cops got there.
