Minneapolis school shooting - Dems call for gun control

By Elizabeth Elkind , Alex Miller Fox News
Democratic lawmakers, including the two top congressional Democrats, are calling for gun control in the wake of a deadly shooting at a Minneapolis school on Wednesday.

"I’m horrified by the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis and closely monitoring the situation. I’m thankful for the first responders on the scene," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., wrote on X. "Students and teachers should not be putting their lives on the line just by going back to school. We must do more to stop gun violence in America."

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., called the shooting "horrifying."

"Praying for the children, families and first responders during this moment of terror and unimaginable grief," Jeffries said. "Weapons of war have no place in our neighborhoods, streets or schools."

Along similar lines, Rep. Shri Thanedar, D-Mich., wrote on social media that he was "horrified" by the shooting, followed by a call for stricter firearm legislation in the U.S.

"Events like these should not be our ‘normal.’ The simple solution is to pass sensible gun control. Without that, these tragedies will continue to happen, and children will continue to die," Thanedar wrote.

Comment:
What kind of gun control would have prevented this shooting?
Are semi-auto guns "weapons of war"?
If semi-auto guns are banned, how would it be enforced?
I haven't read every post in this thread so I may have missed it if someone noted it before, but I don't recall democrats running to the cameras begging for gun control when TRUMP! got shot.
 
How much of a punishment is it to have to wait a while to get your newest mass murder device?

What could you possibly need an AK for that can't wait?

A pack of democrat party thugs, rioting in your city........

I've owned firearms for almost 50 years no murder has ever been committed with them and the 2nd Amendment has nothing to do with need.

Another ignorant opinion with no substance other than your feelings.
 
You mean make it harder for law abiding citizens to exercise their Constitutional right. Those with criminal intent will not be affected at all.
YOu might wanna rethink that in light of recent events.

Totally beside the point.
 
Every time there is a criminal act, lib marxists go after the law-abiding.

You made that point you idiot and I'm quoting directly from your post

"How much of a punishment is it to have to wait a while to get your newest mass murder device?"

You constantly spew bullshit and think no one is going to call you out for it ?

Let's apply that reasoning to another right we all like to utilize, but of which we don't seem to understand the danger. Words hurt, words cause isolation, depression, anger and sometimes suicide.

How much of a punishment is it to have to wait a while to get your newest license to drive a teenager to harm themselves? What could you possibly need a social media license for that can't wait?
