Why hasn't the left gone all frothing mad about the School Shooting in Perry Iowa?

gun banners don't care that criminals will continue to be armed because public safety is only a facade they erect as a pretext to hide their true agenda. Their goal is punishing lawful gun owners and making open and lawful use of firearms extremely difficult if not outright illegal

 

yeah, you are getting it now-the leftwing jihad against legal gun ownership will be a bigger failure than the war against drugs

 

it's far less harmful that the "lets strip all of America of their constitutional rights" and pretend that will stop those who are willing to commit mass murder

 

So end the war on drugs.

 

sounds good to me-the federal war on drugs is of dubious constitutionality at best-especially against drugs created or made in the USA. FDR's expansion of federal powers is a main reason for this war on drugs

 

I understand it perfectly. They are lying hateful propagandists, that could care less about the victims, their desire and goal is use any shooting to slander us.

 

1) Why do you think only people on 'the left' are going to get upset by incidents like this? What? People on the 'the right' don't have a conscience?
2) Exactly what do you suggest 'the left' do? A disturbed kid shoots other kids. News flash. The reason he was disturbed bears little to no relevance to the basic problem (unless of course you think most of the children who perform these kind of acts are LGBT+. In which case produce your evidence. And of course your proposed solution.)
3) No. The relevant issues which will become parent as the investigators backtrack through the events leading up to the crime include;
- how did he gain access to a firearm;
- what measures were in place to prevent weapons entering school premises;
- could school authorities, police and EMS have responded sooner or more effectively in way that woudl have reduced casualties; and
- given he was apparently mentally disturbed (assuming this has been confirmed), who knew, when did they know and what was being done done about it etc,etc;

In other words what were the fail points, if any in the systems that were supposed to prevent these kind of incidents from occurring at the school in question? (Not that based on the evidence all those systems are particularly effective anyway. But hey! When your stuck in a leaky lifeboat and its the only boat you have? You keep bailing.) Any bets on what this years tally will be BTW? Last years was something like 340.

 

I know I'm going to hate myself for asking but who exactly is 'us' Ke-mo sah-bee?

 

The story was buried because the shooter was another White guy. Want a school shot up? Call a white guy.

Aren't conspiracy theories grand?

 

my reply was supposed to be read as tongue-in-cheek.

Though I'm sentimental to that idea, I know it's not achievable.

 

What other tools and objects are liberals in the habit of blaming instead of the person misusing them?

 

"We have to get over it."

Has the left stood upon the corpse to try to strip Americans of their rights yet?

 

I know how we can put a stop to this sort of thing..... We can just make guns illegal and no one will get shot anymore.

That's what we did with drugs and no one takes drugs anymore, now.

 

Ennui

There is only so much care factor to be given when you know you will be steamrolled by an outrage machine

 

No weapons on the hoplophobe ban list were used. so it doesnt matter. Can't demonize pump shotguns ...yet. Gotta ban the scary ARs first.

 

That is such a dumb myth

 

Why do you think ARS are harmless?

 

Except that that DID work to drastically reduce gun violence in other countries

 

Wow you jump into the strawmans fast... no one said ARs are harmless. But neither are pump action shotguns. AND YET the gun banners (in America) want to ban ARs BUT NOT pump action shotguns (.......YET......).

 

Hmmm but why? Is it without reason?

 

Well then God clearly wants you to arm yourself with rocks instead of firearms doesn't he.

 

Yes. Its based on emotion, not reason. Not reason at all.

 

I am betting few here will have the courage to read through this next link

Is it? Are you unaware of the difference in firepower, rapidity of fire and the “blast effects” caused on the human body?
