Koko78 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 2 hours ago, Cinga said: Marbury vs Madison however tipped the scales when the court took the Constitution to themselves, and claimed to be the arbiter of it. Since then, we have a branch with authority over the other 2 because they can simply over rule them both. This was never the intent of the framers, and certainly isn't an enumerated power under the Constitution. I wouldn't agree with this. Each branch has checks over the others, which did not go away. The Court has no authority to create law, nor do they have any mechanism to enforce their rulings. They have no more authority over the other two branches than the other two have over the Court. Marbury v. Madison was a natural extension of the "cases or controversies" mandate of Article 3. However, it was completely unethical for Marshall to take part in the case (much less write the decision), since it was his !@#$up on the last day of Adams' administration that created the issue of the case.

ALF Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) As for his family life, Cruz was adopted by Lynda Cruz, said Kathie Blaine, her cousin. More than three months ago, on November 1, she died after battling the flu and then pneumonia, Blaine told CNN. Cruz's father had died more than a decade ago due to a heart attack. Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel said Cruz's digital profile contained what he called "very, very disturbing" content. https://www.cnn.com/2018/02/14/us/nikolas-cruz-florida-shooting-suspect/index.html Someone who saw his online posting should have reported him.

Justice Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Create a database that keeps track of the amount of ammunition and clips an individual buys. Make them prove they used those items before they can buy more. Also, before a person can buy a gun in the first place he/she has to pass a Psychological evaluation. At least it’s something. What we can’t do is nothing. Enough is enough already. RIP and prayers to all that are effected by this tragedy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) The "easy" solution would be an aggressive gun ban. That'd take a lot of guns out of circulation. There'd still be a lot of 'illegal' guns, but it'd be a start. But that's not going to happen until we as a society agree to it, and we certainly don't at the moment. If we keep the same amount of firearms, the only way to lower the amount of these situations, is to have some comprehensive changes on the social safety net side of things, AND a general societal change where we are kinder to each other. And, again, neither of those are going to be changed anytime soon. So... thoughts and prayers it is. It sucks. It really !@#$ing sucks. But it's the price of "freedom", I guess. https://www.vox.com/2015/10/3/9444417/gun-violence-united-states-america Some info on America's gun "problem" relative to other parts of the world.
