Well, it certainly is wildly inconsistent.

 

You read about a 2nd grader being suspended for a week for drawing a gun, but an 18 year old who actually threatens a school slips through the cracks

What’s your bright idea, Einstein? I don’t care who you were replying to. Comparing Iraq with the US is downright retarded. 

There are many, many stores that sell guns and ammo. You suggesting having a DB that is inter-connected that would track John Doe’s purchases of multiple products at multiple locations at multiple times?

 

not so simple is it.

Isn't something like that done with Sudefed?

You can be brave and tough with a second grader. You just wish the 18-19 year old disappears from your life.

Sure. About one request for Sudafed comes in to a pharmacy a month now. There are lots of good alternative drugs to use that dopers like some around here find useless for making meth. 

 

Apples and peanuts.

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. 

 

Create a database that keeps track of the movements of all Muslims and where they pray.  Make them prove they have no radical influences or thoughts whatsoever before they can move here.  Also, before a Muslim can buy a pressure cooker 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 affected by this tragedy:

My bright idea:. Not to open my mouth before I have the facts of the situation, a diagnosis of the situation and a conclusion.

 

I also support teachers being able to carry weapons.

 

And, if you have no sense of humor than sky fairy have mercy on your soul.

That’s cool. I get it. I really do. But you want to know what? I’m down with that if white people are down with it too. You like to sit up on your high horse and act like you’re the good guys. Newsflash bro. There isn’t a more violent race than the whites.

Can you stop quoting me ?   I don’t have a GED interpreter. 

 

Kids hit other kids and throw desks and the higher ups are encouraged to not suspend them. 

 

As as far as guns go, I want a few, you have protect yourself from people like Mr. Cruz.

Follow the playbook. That didn’t take long. 

 

1. Prayers

2. Not the time to talk about gun control 

3. He’s crazy (if white)

4. He saw some things on ISIS on the internet 

5. Do nothing 

6. Repeat

Blacks gotta register for KFC.  A database for buying watermelon on food stamps.  And Newports.

 

Mexicans cannot get Goya without proper licensing.

 

Asians are banned from driving in fast lane.

 

Canadians must speak with English before coming in to this country.

 

Californians must be able to find Iowa on a map before voting.

 

 

I like this bigotry of yours

lol, yeah, whites are more violent because they managed to conquer the world despite making up a relatively small fraction of the population.  Whatever dude.  To me, this ain't about race.

 

I'm glad the point of my post wasn't completely lost on you, but your conclusion is sad to me.  I want all American citizens to enjoy the rights preserved for them in the Constitution, including any that happen to be Muslims.  Stripping people's rights is always bad.

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.

How does a gun ban take guns away?  Wanna take my guns (which I don't own any). Come ory them from my cold dead hands

Lol. I’m the bigot in this equation? I simply come up with an idea to limit the amount of clips and ammo that are sold and this is where you choose to take it? You’re the bigot.
