Just admit it, you care more about your metal penis extension than other people's dead kids. Just admit if there was a school shooting everyday in the US, you'd still be against any meaningful gun regulations. Even simple ones like waiting periods.

I actually think there are Rs willing to vote for gun reform. But alas leadership forces them to do the exact opposite the Ds want.One side is trying to do something. The other side who's strategy of doing nothing is the one working.
Must be able to kill that bearI don’t know. There seems to be a common thread with these shootings but I just can’t put my finger on it.
I'd like to know why the Christian churches in Texas who preach from the pulpit about other issues that affect their members are silent (except for thoughts and prayers) on this massacre when they could be very effective toward pushing for common sense legislation that would to a large extent mitigate tragedies like this.
The Tops store had an armed security guard. Do we really want to turn everyplace into an armed fortress?
Is that the answer, more guns? There is a reason every country isn't allowed to posses a nuclear weapon. Same logic.
When do we learn lessons from the past? Texas went the opposite direction. Open carry without training or a permit needs to be repealed.
Sadly all future shooters will be wearing armour like these last two. But unsure why prior ones didn’t. Well the prior school shooter was in class.There were apparently two armed LEOs that attempted to stop him after the crash, they failed. There was also a school resource officer present, they failed.
"Good guy with a gun" is a myth based on cosplay of Rambo fantasies.
Anyone still think you can have an honest debate with these people???And it didn't take long for a politician to open his mouth and insert his foot...
Arizona GOP congressman Paul Gosar tweeted (after the shooter had been identified as 18 yr-old male resident of Uvalde) that the shooter was a "transsexual leftist illegal alien."
I would say UNBELIEVABLE! but, sadly, it no longer is.

They will argue the proper interpretation of "well-regulated" is "well-trained".

Gun advocates don't want kids shot either, but they do strongly disagree on the solution.
Is it still 2008? Have you learned nothing over the last 14 years? Republicans are punished by their voters if they compromise with Democrats. Seriously, wtf man?No they are not. They may think they are, but they don't actually listen to the thoughts of the other side and try for common ground.
Both FOX and MSNBC have engaged in name calling all day, just like every other time.

Time to stop name calling, jumping in front of the camera for speeches, and actually listen and try to compromise.

Ask any gun nutter if they would give up their guns if it would save 36 children in the next 9 months. Any hesitation in an answer will be your answer, because they won't. So there you go, it's more important to own guns than keep children from being mowed down in schools. At least own it, don't pretend to care about human life if you don't.
This is very true - they think gun restrictions will only remove their guns and then leave them vulnerable to some bad actor. This is one reason you see people advocate for armed guards in schools despite them being largely ineffective. The Sandy Hook shooter fired like 150 rounds in less than four minutes - there is no way you're going to get response times low enough to prevent a massive tragedy.While I know they don't want a solution, I at least know the underlying psychology of why not.
It is this basic premise. Fear. Fear of other people with guns, fear of not having your own. Thus they cling to that fear and the "solution" of the 2A. Irregardless of how illogical it is to feel safer if everyone was armed VS very few people. America has aptly demonstrated time and again that being armed results in a death toll. Blinded by fear, Republicans simply refuse to see reason from madness. As is typical in being human.
- What stops a person with a gun?
- 99% of the time, it'll be another person with a gun.
They don't want the kids to die. It is just impossible for them to arrive at a proper conclusion to the problem at hand.
So we're back to the only answer is an armed officer in every class room. (until one goes nuts and shoots up the classroom, then we'll need two in every class room).This is very true - they think gun restrictions will only remove their guns and then leave them vulnerable to some bad actor.

I have no problem with background checks and keeping guns out of the hands of criminals and the mentally unstable.
Banning guns because they have a black stock and a pistol grip and accept detachable magazines I do not agree with.
While I think banning all guns is the right solution as supported by the science, I'm willing to take whatever people will accept at any given time.I have no problem with background checks and keeping guns out of the hands of criminals and the mentally unstable.

To me the first and most obvious is universal background checks, no exceptions.
