We have a mass shooting problem. What are repubs going to do about it?

[OldLady]

We seemingly need to change our 'culture' of .... How do we begin to turn it around so the first thing a pissed off invididual thinks of isn't grabbing a gun? Gun control alone won't solve this problem. Instead of the same old finger pointing and name calling (yawn), THINK. This isn't just Republicans' responsibility.

 

[TNHarley]

Republicans control congress, what are they going to do about our mass shooting problem?

What should they do about freedom, exactly?

That doesn't answer the question. Is your answer Nothing then?

Who knows what they will ATTEMPT to do, since they seem to be afraid of their own shadows. What will actually get DONE, however, is up to both a Republican legislature, which has neither a veto nor filibuster proof majority, AND a democrat president who has shown himself to be completely unable to step outside his rigid ideology and compromise to pass effective legislation. IOW, there will a lot of shouting and finger pointing, and maybe the loss of more freedoms, none of which will stop the next shooter. The best we can hope for is for more concealed carry permit holders.

We have more permit holders and the problem is getting worse...

Really? Violent crime is going down! You emotional retards think history started with social media and Bush. THINK

I would ban the reporting of mass shootings beyond local news.
That way unless it is close to you, you won't hear about it.

That seems like a serious attack on free speech.

 

[TNHarley]

Well we already know what the Dims will do.

They will further vet law abiding citizens who want to defend themselves with a fire arm and not vet incoming Syrians by the thousands. They will also raise energy prices to help combat terrorism

If the GOP does NOTHING, it would be better than the Dim solution.

I am asking what repubs will do.

I don't see how that will have a noticeable effect on the number of mass shootings.

You're right in that it won't effect the largest category of Mass Killings which is drug slaughters in major cities like Chicago and Detroit which have been run by Democratic Socialists Fools for many decades---but you pinheaded Liberals don't much care about those.

Muslims, in proportion to their share of the population are obviously the second, perhaps the most, dangerous of any group.....and they have NO ******* Constitutional right to come to this country.

They need, it appears, about 4 more centuries to develop a civilized concept of humanity, and a recognition of the Separation between Church and State---then we might can consider letting some into the country. Until then, its simply too risky for innocent Americans.

You have a link supporting the claim they are second most dangerous? Most mass shooters seem to be white males.

You sure?
Say, did you hear about the black guy in New Orleans that killed like 17 people this week?
Do you consider all gun crime bad, or just mass shooters?
This thread is fuckin stupid.

Mass shootings are down?

Arm more nuts. I read in the paper today that the US averaged one mass shooting per day this year.

So him, his wife and the other Muslim are

it's kind of not surprising you consider your fellow citizens "nuts".

Progressives seem to have a trust issue unless the person is from the government or in a government uniform. How things have changed since the 60's.

I'd say my fellow citizen, the shit that killed 14 people yesterday, is a nut. How about you? Do you think he's just peachy?

when people are determined to kill you, you need a gun. This problem is about Islam. All other gun crime has reduced as we become better armed in this country....with the notable exception of gun free pockets of the population.

I didn't say all, I said most.

I want to known what republicans are going to do.

See the OP, we are discussing mass shootings. Clearly state violent crime somewhere else.

 

[TNHarley]

WHAT IS THE OPs SOLUTIONS?

 

[Yarddog]

Republicans control congress, what are they going to do about our mass shooting problem?

Theres a Mass society problem, what are Liberals going to do about it? prescribe more antidepressants ?
The gun violence is only a sign of other things. At this point theres only so much politicians can control. Even if there was a ban on guns sales, guns would be sold black market, they would still get the guns.

 

[Brain357]

So far it seems really clear our republican congress will do nothing.

 

[Defiant1]

No. Just some restrictions on the type of news that can be reported.

Let's call it News Control.

So you want to curb mass shootings but not worry about violent crime?

So far it seems really clear our republican congress will do nothing.

WE HOPE SO
Some people enjoy their freedom.
