banning all guns should be off the table, so should putting more guns out there ... imho both are reactionary only and not much of a solution, as one ignores a right and the other puts more potentially unstable gun carriers around our children I have heard of one LONE person ever seriously suggesting 'taking' guns away(meaning removing by force something one possesses) but I am sadly hearing many who believe the answer to gun violence is more guns ... I did think about it, one is about what gets sold and its safety, the other is about the right to have what ends up being sold. Not a problem. |

Please tell me if shooter A starts shooting before shooters B to Z see the shooting, and shooters B to Z pull out their guns, which one will shoot whom? Will B simply shoot A and thats the end? Or, when C sees B shooting, will C assume B is the shooter and shoot them? When the cops come and see ABC and D shooting which ones will they shoot?
Something to think about Ronald Reagan was shot amongst a slew of armed security, police were taken out an event filled with armed officers. More arms at the threat is not as logical as preventing the likelihood of the threat in the FIRST PLACE. |

They could destroy drugs instead of making drug deals too... and they could put criminals behind bars instead of making deals with 'small' players to get 'bigger' players, but the justice system will always have discretionary practices based on their priorities. to address that totally unproven conclusion that has not been shown to have any correlation to school shootings. |

full-auto are already banned...semi-auto's are exactly what we are talking about...it's not a war it's a discussion..and just as the ban exists on full-auto if the semi-auto is also banned you'll obey the law or face the consequences..just like someone driving their car 100mph in a school zone does Moe is correct. Moe, The federal limit on magazine capacity expired when the Public Safety and Recreational Firearms Use Protection Act of 1994 expired. Academy Sports & Outdoors sells a 33-round magazine that is made for the Glock 17. |

Pointless discussion. Guns Are Always Going To Be Available. Government efforts to control possession of guns will be pathetic[like Prohibition of alcohol] & unenforceable. A grand waste of funds so why not ask, "what social, emotional, & psychological stress factors are not being addressed in a society where young people go out & open fire on their contemporaries?".

I believe there was an effort to completely prohibit ALL alcohol, an attempt to do that with guns would be pathetic, BUT an attempt to better regulate what types of guns are manufactured and sold, not so pathetic.
And that along with addressing the economy which has more parents in workplaces than homes, might be a start. |

i like to express some of my personal opinions thru paraphrasing
of well known song lyrics (poetry of sorts, to me) i could type out 10 or 12 paragraphs but it wouldn't begin to say all i feel on the subject of gun control and the recent events in Florida.. now that i have explained it, i don't see how it can be construed as off-topic or disparagement/offensive to anyone...it was previously deleted for what reason, i have no idea ??? People can read it or not, if someone gains some insight from it, as i have, that's fine...if not, just pass what harm can that possibly do ? i'd like it to stay up this time.. *********************************************************** Tin soldiers and shooters coming We're finally on our own This summer i hear the drumming Seventeen dead in Flo~ri~da Gotta get down to it Shooters are cutting us down Should have been done long ago What if you knew her And found her dead on the ground How can you run when you know ? credit --- 4 dead in Ohio...CSNY (paraphase) oh btw, and if you like to sing...Flo--Rye--Da works good |

Guns are always gone to be available to most people. Criminals too illegally.
Pointless to say what you will change, you are not Congress or POTUS. Continue a March, maybe at least walk off your frustrations!!! |

will not change, as you are also not Congress or POTUS |

2nd amendment = right to bear arms means armor. Subtract people’s lives or the 2nd amendment?

2nd Amendment -- for those who flunked spelling class..
Your RIGHT TO BARE ARMS SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED UPON OK OK, wear the damn tank-tops if that's what you want |

What I mean is it should be about defense, not exhorting power over someone. The problem with guns or bombs is they can blow up and hurt someone.
One time I was walking down the street and 5 thugs were walking by and one of them asked me for my money. I told them I had none (was not true). The others circled around me. I locked eyes on the weakest of them (who evidently was behind the rest and after the others had circled around he had just stopped walking), and I gave him the look that I respect you even if I have to kill you to get to my meeting on time, and even if I end up dead which is more likely. He barked to the others “don’t stop just because I stopped, keep on walking,” and they left. I don’t even want a gun in that kind of situation. Just being on my feet and engaging face to face solved the problem, and walking a wide circle around potential bad guys after that prevents the problem in the first place. |

Taking away peoples guns will not solve the root of the problem, and it is unfair to gun owners who use them for good purposes.
However, it will significantly reduce the frequency of atrocities, and I think it is worth taking them away for that reason. There may be an alternative solution that works better, but the research and development of a feasible plan would have to be done by someone or funded by tax money |
