There should be a fair and transparent process for someone to both lose and regain their gun rights. That is one law that should be passed as soon as possible.

Regain? Regain? No. Sorry, I will never support this. You blow it, you blew it.

Nobody who is in power to change this gives 2 sh**ts about it, especially in Florida. Everyone knew this kid was off the rails and it didn't matter.

I point directly to the family he lived with. Sorry, if you're in my house and you can't even bother not to get expelled from school there will be no ****ing gun. None. There's no ****ing gun anyway, but you get the point.

If he's got the money to buy one then there's not much to stop him, family or no family. That's just the way it is. Like you said, nothing we can do.

There's plenty we can do. We can make guns as hard to get as high explosives. We just wont, because the NRA has its blood funnel jammed into the face of our democracy and the hurr-durrs have been trained to think their guns are more important than their children's lives.

And you've just explained why there's nothing we can do. Unless we vote all the NRA stooges out of office and that's not going to happen in any red states.

It isnt like Red States (or even GOPers) are the only ones the NRA owns...

Typical fake concern from Itch. To put it another way, "This is not the time to talk about guns".

Since we've got 2A, there's only one way this ends, and it's with military-like police presence in public schools. I'm sure that will foster a terrific learning environment.

"You have my prayers" equals "I'm not going to do anything contrary to my bribers' wishes and I literally don't care how many children die."

That's true, the NRA has it's hooks in some D's as well. Depending on the state you wouldn't just need a slight majority but a solid majority of non-NRA stooges to get anything done.
 
Re: 0 Days Since Last Shooting: Reset The Calendar Again

A senior at the Florida high school where 17 people died in a shooting on Wednesday implored lawmakers to act to prevent future violence, calling the frequency of school shootings in America “unacceptable.”

“Ideas are great, ideas are wonderful and they help you get re-elected and everything, but what’s more important is actual action,” the student, David Hogg, said during an appearance on CNN on Thursday.

“Thank God for a janitor that stopped us” student David Hogg says
He says she helped the students shelter in a classroom.

Mr. Hogg said that he was in an Advanced Placement environmental science class at the school, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., when students in the classroom heard a gunshot and alerted a teacher, who closed the door. Soon after, he said, a fire alarm began sounding and the students evacuated the classroom.

Outside, Mr. Hogg encountered a mass of running students, which he joined. A janitor stopped and redirected the crowd, saving them from heading in the direction of the shooter, and the group eventually found safety in a culinary classroom.

“Students are dying trying to get an education,” Mr. Hogg said. “That’s not OK. That’s not acceptable.”

Mr. Hogg, whose younger sister lost two friends in the shooting, called on politicians to act.

“We’re children,” he said. “You guys are the adults.”
