Mass Shootings-Why Do We Insist On Thinking Anything Can Be Done?

We don't. Stop lying

There are 11 million of them. "evicting" 11 million people is simply not possible

 

I don't know anybody who doesn't want to find out what it is. There are plenty of theories, but my idea is that it requires good parenting with a mom and a dad) in a neighborhood where kids play outside with other kids.

 

I think you've got it. It doesn't apply to all of us, but to enough of us that we our society is suffering greatly because of it.

 

Sure it is.

 

WOW, a person supporting illegals would be expected to know that.

 

Robert. There is a difference between "supporting" and recognizing the reality of a situation. You''re old enough to know that.

 

The killer in Florida lost his mom and it is presumed she had been his sole support. When she died, he lived with a apparently kind family and they did not suspect a thing.

 

No it is not

 

Is there? Were your feelings hurt? I am old enough you chide? Darn right I am old enough to recall when this nation called them wetbacks and other names for those from below our border. This nation had a history of war with Mexico.

 

Because it HAS been done elsewhere

In a free society we can't have the police arresting people in secret and having courts try them in secret. So I don't want them doing anything different. What I am suggesting is that the press simply and deliberately leave out the shooter's name and picture, trying to do their part to take the "glory" away from doing these kinds of crimes.

Also, this suggestion is not "the answer". It is just one of many things we should talk about and act on.

 

Obama bragged in his two terms he deported more than 3 million mostly Mexicans. Good job Obama and now some claim the job can't be finished. I believe with both pride by Democrats as to what Obama did and the effort of Trump, 11 million can be swept out of this country. Watch the wages of workers go up. Watch the lives of regular Americans improve.

 

It can’t be done

 

It is simply not possible to compare tiny countries such as Germany or France or others to the USA. We can overlay Europe on the USA and I suspect we are still much larger.

Each foreign nation has it's customs, mores and laws. They do not follow the US model in all aspects. They were long back settled. Compared to Europe we are a brand new nation.
We are moving forward when we are administered by republicans and yanked back 10 steps when managed by Democrats. A terrible way to have to live.

We have not come close to recovering from FDR. To our Aussies, that is Franklin D. Roosevelt.

I have lived through 13 presidents or almost a third of all of them. Seen so many things happen. We once did not call for gun control. When I was still a Democrat.

 

Obama kicked out over 3 million. Trump will kick out his share. We must keep at it.

 

Bs

 

tomander has it right: we can reduce school shootings with proper laws that affect crazies, weapons, and school safety.

Trump will not mass deport illegals: won't happen.

 

I guess Obama did not keep you informed that he holds the record for number kicked out. Kick all of them out. Trump will help us all reach that goal.

 

That is not net. Duh

 

Obama bragged that he holds the record for most kicked out, and based on what I saw under him vs Trump here in the SF Bay Area, Trump got serious and is really going after them. He might try to set a new record.

 

What, take away Obama's credit? Surely you won't do that. But net net, Obama bragged he set the new record and he nailed over 3 million of those border hoppers.

 

So what

 

Bragging about Obama accomplishments.

For a Democrat, Obama took a fairly tough stance, particularly early in his presidency, toward undocumented immigrants. In March 2014, Janet Murguía, president of the National Council on La Raza, a Latino advocacy group, called Obama “the deporter-in-chief.”

It was a criticism that activists leveled at Obama throughout his presidency. From 2009 to 2016, his administration oversaw the forcible removal of more than 3 million undocumented immigrants—most of whom were sent back to Mexico. Neither Bill Clinton, nor George W. Bush, Obama’s two predecessors, came close in reaching his tally over their two terms.

Obama’s immigration policies softened with time as Latino activists increasingly put pressure on his administration. In 2013, forcible removals peaked at 434,015 people, a figure unrivaled by Bush or Clinton. By 2016, this had fallen to 344,354 immigrants, slightly lower than Bush’s peak of 359,795 in 2008.

 

You can now brag about Obama and be right. HE nailed over 3 million of the border hoppers. Be proud.

 

He was a great president. I agree
