Another school shooting

[cfbandyman]

the us isn't an outlier for mental health, it's not an outlier for violent movies or video games. it's an outlier for guns. and we are so far down the rabbit hole with guns that we will never come back. this is our normal.

Yup, I typed a long thing but deleted it last night cause it was getting to depressing and hopeless writing it. When we decided with Sandy Hook that instead of a bunch of kids dying it was a bunch of crisis actors and SHALL NOT INFRINGED was more important the plot was forever lost. This is what we chose, and this is what we will have to deal with

First step is to ban semi automatic weapons. Not sure how you can do this though. It's not like you can go door to door trying to take the people who own these guns away. They'll start a civil war. I've  spoken to some of these freaks in Louisiana.

Stop selling them and make it illegal to carry them, so you can't even use them on a gun range. Then offer to buy them back.

it would be tough but Australia managed to do exactly that after Port Arthur

I was dumb/naive enough to think that Sandy Hook might result in some sort of change.  Nope.

Require murder insurance on all firearms and pay $10 million per death in all murders and also cover all medical cost plus pain and suffering for survivors. Let the insurance companies set whatever premium that would require and charge it for every gun you own.

I think it's safe to say that the majority are unaware that this is a legit interpretation and would also fully accept it.

Biggest reason I've heard why people from the south love these guns, is for mass destruction when it comes to hog hunting. I can't even imagine why this gets your rocks off so much, but i'm not trying to make up for a small penis with big trucks and semi automatic guns. I do it like a real man and workout.

Yes.  Problem is that would be considered "infringing" and the absolute freaks on our SC would most certainly strike it down.

I suspect that the constitution and bill of rights would be worse (for the author of that post) if written today.

Yeah. We're so entirely boned.

[michigancat]

i don't even know how to react to these anymore. nothing will change, we'll all just wait around for the next one crossing our fingers that we aren't directly impacted.

I have a very callous take on it and that is that I don't care any more, it's a waste of energy and resources because it won't change. We kill way more people with our health care system and I think that has more political feasibility to change in a meaningful way than gun control.

I don't think so because you wouldn't have the weird imbalance of power that small states have. Of course you could never overcome that so it's a nonstarter.

Question for a lot of the libs on here that bitch about the US non stop (Obviously this is a huge one, that I definitely back that needs changes immediately). Is there anything you like about living here? You have a laundry list of crap you guys bitch about every day.

Probably not the best thread for that. Take it to one of the blue anon threads.

Bitching about our government is a civic duty considered so important that they actually enshrined it first in the Bill of Rights.

And yet it's the Bill of Rights that is being complained about.

That’s fine. Please adjust where it needs to be. I talk to International docs trying to get employment here daily, that are jealous AF you us. Mods, please put wherever this should go.

[OK_Cat]

Last week, it was ‘we’ll take every action to protect unborn children’

This week, it’s ‘thoughts and prayers, real-life children, better luck next time’

Literally eff all of them.

I like the insurance, but I'd also tax the ever living bejesus out of ammunition. Only don't have to pay the tax if bought and discharged at a licensed gun range or with a certain amount (like 50 rounds) with a hunting license.

The crux of the problem, besides a "gun" one is it's all right and absolutely no responsibility. No denunciations of using the weapon like that. No talks on how to be safe, care, store, etc. It's always MUH RIGHTS and nothing else.

There definitely is no better place on earth to be a financially focused doctor.  That much the entire world agrees on.

It’s not.

I’m personally with Berger on this one that the Second Amendment seems pretty clearly intended to protect the right to maintain armed state and local militias. Why the “shall not be infringed” crowd thinks you can completely ignore like 30% of the words in that language makes no sense to me.

But more relevantly, we already banned assault weapons. There isn’t a good second amendment argument against the ability of government to do so. The lack of any action on gun policy is 100% due to special interest groups and morally bankrupt politicians.
