    100% agree with you.. it sucks. The guy that did this is a fucking horrific person, and thankfully he is dead - instead of him living and getting paid for interviews.

    Because tragedy occurs though, and it may affect us emotionally... doesn't mean logic and how power/control is managed throughout history/future events should be disregarded.

    People can hate the 2nd Amendment... but facts are facts... the 2nd Amendment is the only thing that keeps a Government from going full totalitarian over it's citizens.

    Maybe some people just like being told what to do by their Government... others, like myself, think the Government is supposed to do what their People want them to do.

    And ignorant mother fuckers like you don't understand the difference... so you post memes like the above.

    Either change the legal age of "adulthood" as it applies to the law to accommodate the discrepancies, or set everything as "legal" at 18 as it is currently the definition of an "adult".

    That's my opinion on it.

    The one thing that I think should be implemented... is every individual purchasing a weapon must be required to complete a minimum of an 80 hour firearms course/drills - or alternative "test-out" options (ie. shooting drills, assembly/disassembly, written test, etc). The fact we have licenses for vehicles, and not weapons is absurd.

    I am 100% for people owning weapons, but requiring a safety/drills course to ensure proper handling is well within the respectable purview in my opinion.
    If the "king" can put a gun in your hands and send you off to kill, you're an adult.

    Oddly, we can spend 50 billion with the stroke of a pen, for a foreign war, but we can't protect our schools or offer mental health facilities for our citizens.

    How can you expect those being lead to act any better than those that lead?

    Apparently the school was in lockdown, but their doors were just weak af and he was able to breech one classroom. Border Patrol officer stopped him as he was trying to get into a second classroom. It would have been a lot worse.

    Let's go over all of the other recent mass shootings that used AR-15 style rifles, in addition to the murder spree against elementary school students this week.

    - The Las Vegas slaughter of 58 people last October.

    - The Sutherland Springs, Texas, church shooting that claimed 26 lives in November.

    - The Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Fla., that left 49 dead in 2016.

    - The San Bernardino, Calif., shooting that killed 14 people in 2015.

    - The shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut that took 27 lives in 2012.

    This just in the last decade. There's no reason for Americans to own semiautomatic rifles and there's sure as shit no reason bump stocks and large capacity clips should be so easy to get a hold of.

    NRA fanatics, Right wingers and my personal favorite, survivalists, all feel owning armaments with absolutely purpose for ownership beyond bragging is a right of passage. Only they're also ending up in the hands of gang bangers, mentally ill people, Republicans, and other criminals and as we see are used more often for murder than home defense or some of you may be hunting with them, but really you're an idiot if you are. As our favorite President would say, "C'mon man!"

    Fifty billion dollars to Ukraine to defend itself from a foreign invader is a drop in the bucket to what it'd take to revolutionize our schools into fortified bunkers, register all firearms, track each and every bullet sale from shelf to corpse and to institute a national background and red flag check system.

    All because the Red states insist our nation is more secure with there being more deadly weapons than population.

    What you don't understand SERAN is that it doesn't matter if they are outlawed. CRIMINALS and Mentally Ill people will get them if they want them. It's a lack of humanity problem.
