Another day, another angry person goes off with a gun. Will the gun crowd propose armed bus drivers now?

Question

Or maybe Blackwater should expand to public school buses?

After all, the gun lobby's solution to ever increasing gun violence is MORE guns - right?

Mommanuke; your're confusing the mass shooting that happened over the weekend (at the church, not the other one) with the shooting that happened by the school bus. Read the link.

Answer 1

You are arguing to a lost cause.
The gun lobby fills the internet and airwaves with false statistics - even going so far as to claim that gun-free nations have MORE violence than the US.
They now seek to have the US government force communities, schools, and hospitals to overrule their gun bans to that there is NO PROTECTED PLACE from the presence of guns.

There are almost NO examples of people using guns defensively - but anecdotes are all they need to base a whole armed society demand upon.

And their wish for the "polite" wild west is a clueless with for mayhem and "stongman" rule over law.

Answer 2

If I understand your question. . . Firing a bullet into the chamber of yet another gun, that grew to become into loaded, possibly would not spark off the different bullet. it would weigh down the different around yet until it additionally spark off the primer, on the returned of the different bullet, it possibly would not circulate off. Now, I even have seen a fellow, with a black power revolver, hearth a around and somewhat go through a flash over into the different chamber, placing off the different black powder quotes interior the cylinder of the gun. no longer a sturdy ingredient. there's a video floating around accessible of a bad fellow taking photos a semi motor vehicle pistol (.38 super, i think of). He fires a around and, by using fact the slide comes forward, it looks the in part loaded around a manner or the different discharged before it chambered. The case ruptured and then the around below, interior the magazine went off. This resulted interior the gun blowing up interior the shooters hand. if so what set the around interior the magazine off grew to become into possibly the nice and comfortable gases from the unique around. That help??

Answer 3

Why isn't anyone questioning why the teens thought that the best way to settle a dispute is through shooting? What about questions about how the teens were raised and why violence is deemed justifiable by their peers? I would still like to know how the heck these teens managed to get guns in the first place. Like it or not, the American people have the right to bear arms. Maybe we should be questioning why it is so easy for people to get guns illegally and focus on that aspect.

Answer 4

Common sense is that anytime you get a vast amount of people together whether it be a country or organization, there will be many that are psychologically deficient or morally corrupt, bipolar, anti-social and so on. Its not to do with guns. If they want to kill somebody they find a way to create a homemade bomb or resort to a kitchen knife. There is no way to monitor every single person on the planet or their psychological well being. You are focusing on the wrong thing. Limiting access to a firearm would not prevent killers from killing.

Answer 5

I'll tell you right up front. Guns are safer now then they have ever been. A gun almost never goes off that some Person doesn't pull the trigger.

The problem isn't the gun. It's the people. And those people are angry. Liberals --make anger managment classes mandatory for everyone. And take them yourselves.

Answer 6

I doubt a person must be a member of a gun lobby to see a need for better security in our schools and in large crowds of people. I suppose you would just talk the gunman out of shooting people.

Answer 7

If you had your way, The shooting at the Church in Colorado would have been MUCH worse. You want to take the guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens. If a criminal wants a gun...HE WILL GET A GUN ILLEGALLY...HE IS A CRIMINAL. That would leave the public sitting ducks.

Answer 8

He wasn't angry, he was schizophrenic. And unless you can somehow get rid of all the guns already on the streets, the only rational solution is to arm everyone.

Edit: OK, I read the link, although I had already heard the news about it. My answer is still the same. We've had two people in the DFW area shot to death in the last two days for answering their doors! Gun violence is everywhere, but once the genie is out of the bottle, you can't put her back in. The only solution is to arm everyone, or, if you can figure out a way to do it, confiscate all guns everywhere.

Answer 9

I would propose a law banning the media from giving these types their fifteen minutes of post mortum fame.

Answer 10

When all the guns are gone are we going to blame knives, or are we going to wake up and start blaming the people who commit the crimes?
