How far will you stoop GURPS??? Your last post included an "eye roll" because the kids in FL who watched their friends get murdered in their high school are pissed of (are you even human?).
How far will you go to justify the continued slaughter of our kids?
How many more people have to die in these mass shootings before you will come to the conclusion that there are things we can change in an attempt to try to prevent future such events?
Mike Rowe comments are as stupid as all those on here. You all act as if this is some zero sum game (two outcomes). Since there is "evil in the world" there is nothing we can do to stop or prevent it. But it goes deeper than that doesn't it?
Your belief is that your desire to own a particular firearm supersedes the right of folks in Las Vegas to enjoy a concert; supersedes the right of first graders and high school kids to grow up, graduate, fall in love, have a career and live a long peaceful life; supersedes the right of citizens (black or white) to worship in their church and pray to the God of their choosing. This is the position you and those like you have taken.
So to sum up your advice to the kids in FL, it would be same as the chauvinist's to the women getting raped...instead of lay back and enjoy it...your basic argument is "lay down and die"? Your points were clearly summed up by psyops long ago....lay down and die for all you who die on the altar of 2a are just collateral damage.
Yet, had the shooter's first name been Abdullah and he screamed Allah Au Akbar which each pull of the trigger, you and all the rest of the ignorati would be screaming to ban every brown person from within the territorial confines of the US. But this was (another) white kid...so instead your advocate to do nothing.
