...how many of these kids who think we need stricter laws to prevent gun deaths text while driving, even though it's illegal in most states?

Probably all of them. let's say we get rid of the 2A, since so many people are so good at fantasy. What do we do then, when some kid brings an explosive device in his back pack, and drops it off in the gym before the pep rally? How do you suggest we handle that?

When was the last time a disturbed kid texting ran over 17 people in a row?
So, is the problem a single instance of a large number of people being killed or a large number of incidents of a small number of people being killed?
The issue is a easily solved problem of access to high capacity guns.
I assure you if a distracted texter ran over a dozen children every couple of weeks congress would pass a bill banning texting and driving.

Why do you keep attacking kids advocating for their lives?
Do you blame rape victims too?

If the system that is already in place failed to keep guns out of his hands, what other laws would you propose that could have worked?
It Is called the Risk of LIVING IN a FREE Society .... bad #### happens
When a person makes a conscious decision to drastically increase the probability of a collision, you still consider it to be an "accident" (1.an unfortunate incident that happens unexpectedly and unintentionally, typically resulting in damage or injury)? I do not think it can be be considered an accident any more than a pregnancy resulting from unprotected sex can be considered an "accident". I see it as willful intent.... intentional as opposed to the inadvertent.I think intentional murders make the way of death much worse. Car accidents, etc. in no way can compare to someone intentionally setting out to murder.
It's too bad folks don't feel the same about other things. Libertarians realize this. Republicans and Democrats believe it when it suits their agendas.
You Cannot Legislate Morality
There are already laws in place that should have prevented Cruz from getting this gun, and the system failed. Every red flag and could have been raised was raised with this kid. The FBI was called twice on him. Over 30 visits to his house from police due to complaints of his behavior. Expelled form school. My God what else could have stopped this?

If the FBI were to have processed the tips properly .....
Without a doubut, I do believe we will see beneficial changes to background checks put in place.no system is perfect, but this guy didn't have anything in his record that would have excluded him from owning a gun. If the FBI were to have processed the tips properly AND they found just cause, they could have possibly arrested him, but maybe not. even then unless he was convicted of a severe enough crime or deemed mentally insane he would pass a nics check.
