How many more students need to die before our leaders take action on the amount of guns in America??

Question

Or are we supposed to stick our heads in the sand and hope its someone else's kids who get killed in the next massacre? I know what the right wing thinks, stick your heads in the sand, Gay marriage is the real threat, right?

Answer 1

Yeah, next thing we know the NRA is going be having a convention on the Virginia Tech campus saying that guns are not the problem and they will have the financial backing of the right wing.......i wonder how those right wingers feel if one those colleges students were one of their children.

Answer 2

WRONG but I know where you can stick your head.

Isn’t it time people started raising their children properly no matter what country they’re from? Americans have carried gun for over 200 years. It’s just been this last generation that has been so violent when our society is suppose to be so civilized! Parents should and need to take responsibility for raising a generation of violent children!

No, don't blame it on the guns blame it on the people behind the guns!

Ask how many kids have to die before PARENTS take responsibility for raising their kids in a violent way. Parents should ban violence on the air waves and TV and movies and video games. Instead PARENTS use them as Cheap baby sitters!

Put the blame where it belongs on the PARENTS AND THE MEDIA not the guns!

Don't TREAD on our Constitutional Rights to protect ourselves from a Tyrant Government by banning guns because American parents are bad parents and want to shift the blame to someone else rather than take responsibility for raising violent children! Punish the parents!

If PARENTS threw more Love at their kids instead of money we would be a better society!

IF WE OUTLAW GUNS THEN ONLY OUTLAWS WILL HAVE GUNS!

Answer 3

First I stand by my second ammendment rights... second, I carry a gun to protect myself if some idiotic ninny decides to invade my home or kidnap my family rather than wait for the police to take their sweet *** time when my stuff could be sold or my family dead... I also hunt as well as shoot for the sport of it I would never once think of shooting another individual if I felt like causing trouble or am in a mentally unstable state

That's why I need my guns and that's why I'll defend my right (by force if neccesary) to keep them also if you notice the countries where the most gun related violence occur are those that have extremely strict anti gun laws

I posted this same answer in a different topic^ I don't have a political standpoint nor do I represent those that do... It's just I'd like to keep my rights and with my owning of firearms I have a better chance of defending those rights and trust me if the government tries to take away our guns we will defend the right to own them forcefully if need be

Answer 4

So let me ask you a question...

If your a criminal and you are methodically planning an attack what is going to stop you from getting a gun? Personally I think our 2nd amendment is in tack for a reason in this country. Personally I would rather be able to defend myself. Criminals will always achieve getting weapons. Knowing this why should the hard-working men and women in this country not be able to protect there families. What if Al=Quieda attacked you in your own home and the government took away your right to carry? I can't imagine being left defenseless....Just a thought! I suppose you blame video games to!

Answer 5

IF we sacrifice freedom for security based on government security we have neither security or freedom

If guns are outlawed only the outlaws will have them.

we have strong gun laws, and people with intent will find a way to perpetrate. Guns are tools as are fire, knives, pitchforks, ammonium nitrate, jet fuel, gasoline, the problem is NOT the object. The problem is the perpetrator.

I believe many people have become willing to usurp their personal liberty for security they will clamor for a police state before long.

I believe that tragedies such as this ought to give us a reason to pause and look at the causes as to why angry people do atrocious and horrific acts.

I believe the media is culpable. I believe that parents are culpable, I believe liberals are culpable, I believe by removing any semblance of conflict from schools we not given kids healthy outlets for conflict and aggression.
When I was a kid, I carried my 22 rifle and 20 gauge shotgun in the truck of my car so I could go hunting after school, I never once thought when I was getting picked on by a bully to go get the gun and kill him.. I thought differently because I respected myself and those around me. If it came to blows with the bully it would be with fists in the parking lot. a bloody nose generally stopped it.

Guns are not the problem. Ignorance of anything is dangerous and society has become ignorant of firearms. Both of my children have certified in hunter safety and firearm training. They not only know HOW to use firearms but HOW NOT to use them. This is the problem with schools today, we no longer accept firearms as a norm so they've become abnormal AND people clamor for control. This is wrong.

The media is wrong in reporting facts. This not the worse, not even close.

Answer 6

All the laws on the books can't stop this kind of thing how will more help? We need to stop thinking like victims. More people should be carrying weapons. that is the only way to stop crime and senseless killing. I for one am not a sheep, I am a man and a citizen of the United States. I have a God given right to defend myself and I will.

Answer 7

you're outstanding. people who choose firearms banned from faculties, or different public places have a death choose. If banning firearms from those places make us safer, shouldn't we be conscious that to regulation enforcement workers additionally? does no longer that extra effective improve the protection of those aspects? maximum folk might see the folly of disarming police in those aspects. yet what's the version between a police officer, and a regulation abiding citizen who's experienced with a firearm? once you view a firearm as a protective device, you recognize that "gun administration" makes regulation-abiding people into victims. because of the fact the "gun loose zones" do no longer look to supply up crazies from establishing up on whoever gets of their way, all they do is leave the victims defenseless. people would desire to awaken and end thinking like slaves. supply up electing public servants who make you a sufferer.

Answer 8

Let's make this simple...
There's ALREADY a law that bans guns within 1000 feet of a school.
All law abiding students didn't have any guns.
So...gun control worked....FOR THE CRIMINAL!!
If there was just one responsible firearm owner, the other students may have had a chance. Since there was none, nobody had a chance.

Answer 9

You are sadly mistaken in your judgment and solution to the violence being blamed on firearms... Those who use them improperly are in the Minority.. Which would you rather be a Victim or survivor> Predator or Prey?? People have a right and obligation to use them in a responsible manner, most do..Some choose to use them violently and they are in the minority.. Is the Majority suppose to do without? Every person has an obligation and right to protect themselves and their loved ones from the Minority...

Answer 10

illegals kill 12 people a day here have you done anything about that?

that is a real threat right?
12 x 3 = 36 thats more than a gunman

Answer 11

Yeah.. we should have taken away all the guns from everyone in that TOWN.. then the kid could have just killed another 100?

Buddy.. guns make you safe..
Have you ever heard of a shooting spree on a military academy?
