We need to stand up to automobile makers, knife makers, any chemical companies that produce products that can be used to make explosives, baseball bat companies, crowbar companies, rope companies, basically any company that can produce a product that can be used as a weapon.

Earth to FordBronco!!! We have many regulations on car manufacturers, exactly because there were many deadly accidents. Seat belts, airbags, reinforced panels, mandatory safety checks. If we applied a fraction of the regulations we put on car makers to gun makers, we might actually make a dent in this carnage.

Don’t give the wokesters any ideas. They’ll surely run with it and the lawyers will have even bigger field days.

Here's my gun control solution. Keep the criminals away from the guns by keeping them in jail, or the death penalty for those deserving.
How would that have stopped the Texas shooting?

How the hell can a gun be made to only shoot specific targets? Like what “safety features” can they implement on the item itself that would stop shootings?
And how can you stand up to the gun companies when they are manufacturing a totally legal item? It’s stupid pandering that’s what it is.

That vile bastard and the people who put him in office belong in hell. Already politicizing the tragedy.

He's the President. His party has control. He could blackmail Manchin and other Demwits who don't play ball.

Excuses excuses. This country lacks the balls to enforce serious changes to keep it out of decline.

The logic is absolutely retarded. It’s beyond retarded.
You could completely reverse 2A and ban guns totally and this will still happen.
There will always be guns out there. There will always be people with the know-how to build guns and produce ammo. That is the facts. The math says that for the amount of guns that exist in this country, the chance of being shot in cold blooded murder are minuscule.
You’re in the chances of getting struck by lightning, or eaten by an alligator or shark territory. Should we ban alligators too? Take away guns and the loonies will just get more creative and gruesome. It’s far easier to build a home made flame thrower or any type of explosive than it is to build a gun. We all know the end game is to ban guns completely and if/when that happens and people are still getting mass murdered then what? Yeah exactly.

Biden has 5 decades of political experience, sandy hook happened when he was VP, why is he shocked about mass shootings?

Maybe he can just blame Trump.
