The girl told the newspaper she regretted not contacting authorities from where she lives in Germany
Right?! I’m sure had she called the cops in Uvalde, they would have leaped into action at the word of a German teenager telling them about weird posts and messages on IG. They definitely wouldn’t have rolled their eyes and halfheartedly poked around.
First rule of misogyny: Women are responsible for what men do.
It’s such a stupid talking point. Arm the teachers, really? So where are they going to keep the gun? On their person at all time? A shooter can still come in and shoot a teacher before they even draw. Should they be brandishing a gun at all times just in case? What if some kids break into the desk where the gun is…
The most horrifying story I read this morning is that a cop came into a room (with the shooter still there, & children hiding), & asked if anyone needed help. A little girl hiding said “help”, and the gunman immediately located her & shot her.
What kind of idiot would risk exposing children’s positions in that…
Yup. People don’t get it. Real life isn’t like the movies. How many times have you heard of a true civilian successfully fending off a perpetrator using a gun? I’m 40 and I’ve heard of it happening like two times and it’s always a retired soldier or some kind of very experienced gun handler. There are just so many…
How were they to know he was anything other than a regular jerk, especially a kid in Germany where they are used to American blowhards acting tough. Blame America’s lax gunlaws, not a pair of kids who had little to no context for whatever this asshole was doing.
Y’all have these superhero fantasies that have no bearing in real life. Research shows you are more likely to harm yourself with weapons than attackers. Attackers are more likely to turn said weapons on you. Also there is the risk of friendly fire. What’s to let another “good guy with a gun” looking to protect the vuln…
It shouldn’t be unreasonable to say that the cops on the scene should’ve risked their lives to save the lives of children, but apparently that’s a radical idea these days.
So many good guys with guns were there, and yet this community is planning 21 funerals.
Even armed police are too afraid to confront shooters. But republicans demand teachers lay down their lives to stop shooters. Armed police hesitate to attack shooters, yet this mad country thinks training 5 year olds to attack with scissors is the answer.
Go full originalist and state that only “Arms” available at the writing of the constitution can be legally held.
You need liability insurance to drive your car. I see no reason why we shouldn’t have that for guns.
Instead of defining what “Arms” they can’t have, lets just define what they can have: Any firearm with a barrel length over a specified length shall require an action to chamber a round to fire(No more semi-auto rifles). No firearm shall have more than a 5-6 round capacity for ammunition.(No more high capacity…
I am sick and goddamned tired of everybody pussyfooting around, saying shit like, “... but not take away the right to own a gun...” YES! Take away the right to own a gun! Who the fuck needs to own a gun?! “But then only criminals will have guns!” Then make gun violence a capital crime. You even shoot AT someone, you…
The irony, is that all of our our children are endangered by the need of a few knuckleheads to have dozens of guns just lying around at all times, in case the “tyrannical Biden” woke regime comes for their children.
I couldn’t have said it better. Clearly the gun lobby, the NRA and its supporters, OWN our politicians. Yet these are people continue to be re-elected! Ted Cruz, the rest of the Republican “elected” officials, and weak Democrats, have no backbone, no integrity and no honor. How is enacting sensible background checks…
they freeze beautifully!
