“Only” 1,663 teenagers? That’s a disgraceful thing to say. Where would the scales tip? What’s the magic number?
Gun deaths are going up YOY. Essentially doubled in the past 10 years, all ages. If you want to talk numbers, then actually look at them, they don’t help your cause…

Fucking morans. It's never going to end.
The rest of the first world countries must not be able to comprehend how such a dumb society could be the most powerful in the world.
Are we though? Really? I mean, I know we got a lot of fancy fucking hardware. But I think the Ukrainians just showed that big ship naval power ain’t quite what it used to be.
At least not in this new era of fleets of very remote controlled and very tiny vehicles of destruction.
I really do hope the emperor actually is wearing clothes.
It would help if something could be done about assault weapons, but short of that.
Our schools should become like our airports, or maybe just arenas, stadiums etc.
Metal detectors and armed personnel staffing them.
When I was a kid, we had drills about the Russians dropping nuclear bombs on us.
That never happened, this happens every month.
Idk, we could just have the same policies that work for everyone else. Don't even have to be creative, just start copying. Seems preferable to turning schools into prisons.
Also start holding parents accountable. Every fucking time.Quote:

My guess is a majority of the parents are blindsided

Still a fucked up situation.
don’t some people argue that ars are hunting guns for smaller pests, boar, whatever?Quote:

You care about scary looking stuff not about what actually kills 2.5 times more people.Quote:

You know it is possible to care about two (or …gasp… more) things at once….

And obviously you’re not concerned about it either seeing as how you have yet to start a thread about texting and driving.
That he keeps trying to justify a pro-gun position in a thread about dead kids suggests he is aware of being a total dumb dumb.
I self censored.
I knew there were people that couldn't see a phone was more lethal than a gun.
People love their phones. They aren't scary looking.
Its a lost cause.
Even more than guns.
Or that he’s a colossal piece of shitQuote:
