There are more deaths from car accidents caused by texting and alcohol but we don’t ban cars, iPhones or booze.
Celebrities and politicians screaming “ban guns” enjoy the security of ARMED security.
Did the fact that shooter was transgender make the police scared of being called transphobic from taking legal action of the shooter’s prior violent behavior- shooting people with a BB gun from his home and car, assaulting people, threatening violence??
Forbidding law abiding citizens from owning guns won’t stop gun violence- it will leave only the criminals and the government with guns to do violence against law abiding citizens- ask the hundreds of millions of unarmed citizens of China, USSR, Nazi Germany, Cuba etc slaughtered by their government that first enacted laws to take away their guns, ensuring their citizens wouldn’t be able to protect themselves.
One must be MOST scared of any government that is afraid of it’s citizen owning guns.
I don’t think it’s coincidence that since the law making schools a “gun free zone” back in the 90’s, school shootings skyrocketed- the government wanted school shootings to sicken and scare the citizens into willingly giving up their guns- it looks less fascist if the citizens volunteer to give up their guns. The law made our schools like lame sheep waiting for the slaughter. We need teachers and administrators that are capable gun users to have guns along with armed security officers back in schools.
It’s not a coincidence that we don’t see there mass shootings at gun stores and shooting ranges.
