I tend to agree with you. The types of gun laws people are proposing will not work because there are already millions of guns out there. Shooting are now part of the American culture. Good or bad it is a way of resolving differences. I can only see that increasing because the gun violence will lead more people feeling the need to carry guns for self defense which probably will lead to more shootings.
I guess you guys missed it when the left blamed the shootings on white supremacy even AFTER the identities of the shooters were known.
If I started a thread detailing every mass shooting in JUST Chicago...we'd have a thread a day and I'd be called a racist since the majority of those shootings would be from a certain demographic...
And California chalks up another one. Mass shooting at Oakland, California, gas station happened during filming of music video: report https://www.foxnews.com/us/mass-shooting-oakland-california-gas-station-filming-music-video-report
So you think an unanamet object is to blame? We have always had guns in this country. We didn't always have mass murders like this. What changed? The guns?
Instead of banning Guns, California should ban Lunar New Year, seems the Chinese get a little nutty on that holiday, must be the Baijiu
MAGA happened. Have we always had guns with the same capabilities in this country? I can't imagine much of a mass shooting with a flintlock.
Spot on! Since banning things stops them then logic dictates that making murder illegal will do the trick.
I totally welcome out of the box thinking. I hope the new generation figures out something because my generation has failed them. I use to participate in the gun shooting discussions years ago. I remember many discussions with people on this forum. To be honest I have now resigned myself into believing nothing can realistically be done. Neither side is truly out to fix the problem because I do not even think we can get everyone to agree it is a problem. The types of gun control law proposed will not work. The democrats use it as a political issue to get votes but really have nothing. The right uses it to crank up the fear meter, also for votes, but no one has had their guns taken away. All that ever does is lead to higher gun sales. In all of Obama's 8 years he accomplished nothing with gun control but he led to a lot of guns sold. Mass shooting have become a political partisan issue. Look on this forum. Right after a mass shooting everyone holds their breath to see the color of the shooter. Is he an immigrant? Are they gay? Do they wear a MAGA hat? Are they a white supremacist? No one cares about the shooting anymore only the political points that can be scored from the shooting. This is the new America.
That's nice. Attractive as I am, I am not the spokesmodel for them, nor am I particularly left. But I understand. Arguing with preconceived notions and group-think is cheap and easy, hence your posts employ it.
Well hell's bells and panther tracks, looks like you have fodder for your positions. Oh, and English is a proper noun, not a noun, so if you are going to point out others not being able to speak English.......
Anyone with a brain knows BOTH PARTIES have created this mess. The bottom-line, our incessive desire to spread capitalism to the world has created a reliance on countries like China. Make no mistake about it, what made this country the greatest on earth, and in history is our abundance of resources. We now have some that want us to apologize for this and not use the very thing that makes this country great, secure, and the wealthiest for all. The lunacy comes from foreign political forces that pollute the minds of partisans. It's a shame but we will require a major event to tamp down the ignorance and focus our countries strength at this point.
I think it's a battle between the vast majority of us that treasure our individual autonomy vs the authoritarians that crave illegitimate authority over others. Free Markets, Free Choice and Free Labor do not lend themselves to central control, which is why the authoritarians hate all three and love the Lying Outlaw Slavers of Beijing. The Left’s Largest Nonprofits Funneled $39 Million to China in 2021, Filings Show. Illegitimate Totalitarians fail before an Armed Free People and that's why they hate Free Americans right to lethal self defense.
WHITE SUPREMACY. IS THERE ANYTHING IT CAN’T DO? White Supremacy Blamed for Chinese New Year Shooting But Gunman was Asian Man. That's not a MAGA hat. 'The suspect was a middle-aged Asian man. A community leader said it was over a “domestic dispute”:' 'Community leader Chester Chong told ABC7 that the owner of the dance studio on West Garvey Avenue was holding an event there on Saturday. Through talking with friends that were in attendance and other local leaders, he said a woman was invited to the event but not her husband, which made him upset. Chong said he believes that woman’s husband is the suspect in this case and jealousy may be a possible motive for the shooting.'
I watched your video. How things are marketed suggested that the problem lies in the manufacturer, or the product. Why is it never on the actor of violence?
