Active shooter reported at Texas elementary school

[Brain357]

That you deflect... yes that is a fact.
It is also a fact that KIDS HAD MORE ACCESS TO GUNS IN THE PAST THAN NOW.
Guns routinely on campus everyday.
Yet no school shootings.

Something is different in our society that is creating this scenario that didn't exist before.
And using tragedies like this to score political points is sickening. You would rather do that, than actually seek answers as to why this is happening.

No it's not a fact. There are many, many more guns around than there were then. Your claim is just silly.

 

[toobfreak]

More guns makes the problems worse

If THAT were true, then why isn't there a mass shooting at every police station?

 

[JimH52]

How did this guy get into the school. The schools in my area are locked down during the day. How did that happen?

 

[TemplarKormac]

More guns is a failure. That's all you guys every suggest. But it just leads to more killing!

And less guns create more soft targets for people who don't obey the gun laws you want to add to the books.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Wow, another sad day in America.

 

[skews13]

Educate yourself.

If guns don't prevent crime and death, why do the police carry them and why do people call them when the shit hits the fan?

No place else on earth has 45,000 gun killings a year.

No place else on the planet.

The difference?

No place else allows the gun ownership we do.

400 million guns are the problem.

The only problem.

And there is no argument that can be made, that can change that fact.

You're too busy feigning outrage to care about people suggesting meaningful action to tragedies like this.

Arming teachers. Cool. I’m fine with that.

Texas already allows this. So why isn’t the issue fixed? Why did this happen? Oh well, we tried. Let’s go back to doing nothing. See you at the next one.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Yes you hide behind a gun while real live children die and pretend to care about those who never existed. Sad.

Had I the courage, the children would hide behind me while I hid behind the gun.

You have me all wrong.

 

[DudleySmith]

and it's still not happening in countries with strong gun control.

Really? How many of those countries have wide open borders with narco states because they have a criminal Democrat in the White House and Speaker of the House?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

A number of a USMB sick **** trying to prop this sick **** up.
“He’s a citizen….don’t be racist…”

It has nothing to do with propping him up, it has to do with actually giving a shit about the facts of the case.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Arming teachers. Cool. I’m fine with that.

Texas already allows this. So why isn’t the issue fixed? Why did this happen? Oh well, we tried. Let’s go back to doing nothing. See you at the next one.

It was optional for school districts.

20,000 laws on the books. So why isn't the issue fixed?

 

[SweetSue92]

You are a teacher. I expect you to be defensive.

You are of the ilk--like ghoulish Leftists--who would AND DID say " at least they killed a cop" (teacher)

That's on you. Not me. You..

 

[JimH52]

This isn’t ‘logic,’ it’s a lie.

That is the extreme that repubs go to. They say the only solution is to take away all guns, which is a lie. But it serves their political purpose.

 

[Brain357]

And less guns create more soft targets for people who don't obey the gun laws you want to add to the books.

Countries with strong gun control have lots of soft targets and it doesn't seem to matter now does it?

 

[White 6]

It is being reported, the kids were 2nd, 3rd and 4th graders.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

The problem is guns should NEVER be in the hands of the mentally impaired or those intent on evil.

How do you keep them out of the hands of people with evil intent? It is not against the law to have evil intent

 

[Brain357]

That is the extreme that repubs go to. They say the only solution is to take away all guns, which is a lie. But it serves their political purpose.

Countries with strong gun control have not taken all the guns.

 

[DudleySmith]

where is your rage for killing innocent children in their loving mothers womb?
Or your rage for black on black violence and murder?

His Party tells him to focus on white supremacy and disarming law abiding white people at every opportunity, and this is an opportunity.

 

[XponentialChaos]

Nothing really and I would argue that's exactly the problem, not to mention the breakdown of the family unit that has gone on since the 70s, which I think partly contributes to that mental health side of it.

So we’re going to argue if it’s the guns or the mental health that needs to be addressed. We’re going to do absolutely nothing about either and then we’re going to get another mass shooting.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

If you are Christian it has to do with EVERYthing

are "thoughts and prayers" the teachings of Jesus?
