100% of Illegal immigrants are criminals. What part of "illegal" do you not understand?
They say perception is reality. I was trained to understand that someones perception is "their reality". "If you need a kaleidoscope to see out your butt, your perception needs an adjustment".

My heart aches for the families and the kids who suffered through this. Very preventable tragedy. If schools were secured like work sites this would not happen. Badged entry and metal detectors. Spend the cash and save some kids. The technology is there. Failing to implement it is like saying "we cant afford to protect your kid"
Using this as a reason to go after gun owners is ridiculous.
A very small percentage are responsible for violence, an overwhelming majority of violent crimes are home grown residents. This is a silly diversion from the cause of gun violence.
95% of 1,577 people polled supported background checks on all gun purchases. Any sane country would implement such a law but we have criminally insane Republicans in our government who block such laws.
And he knew he could get away with shooting for a long time...why...ask yourself why...be honest in your answer....
I can't help you if you cannot comprehend why he chose his former school (where he had been expelled from), and not some other school. It is obvious to me, but I guess it is not obvious to everyone else.
If an illegal shoots someone it's BOTH a mental health issue and and an immigration issue. However when it's a white kid who has easy access to guns we feel it's BOTH a mental health issue and a gun issue. However we are not allowed to discuss the other part of the equation as you are with illegals. No you want to call it only a mental health issue, but only when it's a white shooter. And as I said if he was a legal Muslim many here wouldn't say a damned thing about mental health and you know it.
If you can't see the hypocrisy here you are simply not being fair.
I am being fair. Did I not say anyone who shoots 17 people is bats**t crazy. I had no idea the kid was white. Why is this a race issue?
Millions of guns in circulation. You cannot put the genie back into the bottle. You can secure schools. Stop blaming a tool that millions use responsibly.
The point that swooshed WAY over your head is that as gun ownership increased significantly, gun homicides DID NOT.
The problem ISN'T guns.
It’s a ridiculous narrow use of statistics to make your point for increased gun ownership. Yes easy access to guns is definitely part of the problem.
Some poster are bashing Republicans for favoring the second amendment but it seems that Democrats can turn in their guns and that would safe a lot of people from getting harmed.
The shooter was a registered Democrat so I'm all for Democrats who are against the second amendment to turn in their guns. But we have heard many times how the biggest protesters against the second amendment all are defended by security with guns on a daily base!

Maybe we should consider bringing all of our troops home & station them in our schools.

The 2nd Amendment gives PEOPLE the Right to keep and bear arms, not militias. Even SCOTUS has ruled that to be so (DC v. Heller).
Brush up on your reading comprehension skills.
So there`s nothing in the amendment about well regulated militias? I know that the National Rampage Association has their own version but I`m looking at the one written by our founders. The Heller ruling allows for gun regulations btw.
