Up to ten people including children shot at public splash pad in Michigan
Police say suspect in shooting that occurred at a water park near Detroit is still at large but believed to be cornered in a nearby house
The ONLY way to Prevent this is if EVERY child goes Swimming with a Gun so they can shoot ANYONE ELSE who has a gun because it's UNCONSTITUTIONAL to ensure ONLY good people have guns!
They'll have to give them waterproof guns though.
Why not just wear heavy bulletproof vests while swimming?
If only there were some way to make changes to the constitution. Some kind of way to amend it
If we can get 2/3 of states to request it, and 3/4 of them to ratify it, sure…
And not a "good guy" gun owner in sight.
It's almost like deregulating firearms isn't stopping mass shootings.
Okay hear me out, the reason for such tragedies is logical. Kids have no guns to fight back! It's just like if you had a guy pointing a gun at you. If you had a gun of your own, you could distract them with a handful of dust and then shoot back. Same for the kids. If they had guns they could defend themselves.
Next we'll discuss the vulnerability of animals such as whales and hummingbirds as it relates to their lack of usable fingers for trigger pulling.
The data shows that a vigilante will be a hero only in one of 7,000 cases of gun violence. I don't see data showing how often the instigator of gun violence has a carry permit.
But this tells us two things:
-
the rate of Good Guy Gun bros is super small
-
there are so many cases of mass shootings in America that 1:7000 can be calculated
Is America holding back on accessible healthcare because it would then need to address the prevalence of guns in America, or have they heard of mandatory multi-million-dollar 3rd party life insurance for gun owners? There's even a company named liberty that may insure them.
Also missing from those stats are the stats on how often someone tries to be a hero and either makes a dangerous situation worse or misreads the situation entirely and makes a peaceful situation violent.
The well regulated militia part was pretty important and the judge(s) that ruled it wasn't should have been impeached for overextending his power.
No. It's a money thing

This shit didn't happen when I was a kid, and we had far fewer regulations. LOL, you could mail order a gun from Sears and carry it in the rear-window gun rack.
But I'm sure a man would unload on a park is exactly the sort who would obey regulations.
Are you referring to the time that one parent could work in a factory and afford a house + living expenses for a family of four?
Those glory days before the civil rights movement?
When urban population density was too low to justify suburbs?
Before police had qualified immunity for every shooting?
Of course in different times with different laws and circumstances, with different weapons and less availability, and lower urban densities, things were different.
That's completely irrelevant to the impact of gun regulations on the number of shootings; that is, the proven statistical correlation between gun regulations and fewer mass shootings.
Your supposition that any man willing to commit a mass shooting would be able to get a gun is similarly fanciful and immaterial
JFC. Take your pick:
- Media didn't cover it as much / you didn't hear about it as easily.
- There was less population overall, meaning less frequency of encounters.
- ... And when DID you grow up? You must be pretty old to avoid this list, Gramps.
How many more lives will be sacrificed at the altar of the second amendment before something meaningful happens?
How many you got?
Yeah, that sounds about right... This fuckin country...
Look, what's more important here, the lives of children or a piece of metal and/or plastic?
All objects matter!
This country will break before anything meaningful happens, just like with chattel slavery.
Most of them?
Sad fact: Until someone starts killing the children of rich white people, nothing will change.
Nope they have a playbook for that too. Although it’s why Sandy hook parents won the billion dollar lawsuit. But it’s also why the Trumpets are pushing for suspension of habeas corpus if he wins.
I'd say around 100k
Depending on how November goes it might not matter anymore.
At the moment, about 82k a year.
Oh, well if there were kids I guess the republicans are gonna protect them.
Might as well report on every car related death at this point
