I remember not too long ago people said there would never be a mass shooting in Texas because Texans would shoot back. We didn’t need another example of the folly of that thinking.
Yet collectively we don’t care enough to change. If recent history holds true it just a matter of time before there is another.

Exactly. Nothing will change. Absolutely nothing. Biden is a coward and republicans have dug their heals in even more.

It's over. Civility is dead

You can't really believe politicians (doesn't matter which team) care about us at all, do you?

“It's horrible. And you know what we need to avoid is the reflexive reaction we have to say this could all be solved by not having guns in anyone's hands. We can always talk about reasonable measures, but we also have to talk about better situational awareness. I'm almost certain that in the coming days or weeks, we're going to find out that there were signs that this person was at risk, and we need to have an equal or greater attention on prevention and that's a key part of it,”


There were probably signs. Let’s focus on prevention and not pass any silly gun laws


As I said before, dead children are an acceptable price so they can have their guns. I wonder if anything would change if was actually their kids or grandkids. Would it be acceptable then?

i think about the bolded part too, but i quickly snap back to reality, because none of them gives a shit. the only thing that matters is money and constituents, and keeping those things closer to the vest than little people who will never get to live a full goddamn life.

i won't sit here and feel like i know what the answer is, or that taking away guns is the answer. however, i do feel those little babies who died today deserved better.

pro-life, my ass.

Whatever you need it to be citizen. This is politics.

How many of the shootings Steve referenced would have been prevented if that bill on universal background checks was passed?

When's the last time a gun acquired in a private party sale was used in a mass shooting? I can't recall one, but there probably were a few. Seems like something Newtown et all would flog to no end if they had examples.
