Gun Control is not a policy. It’s a slogan.

Each time there’s a mass shooting, Democrats and members of the media (but I repeat myself) rush to the microphones and cameras to declare that this, finally, is the proper time to push Gun Control. Gun Control, in this case, is defined as literally anything that restricts gun purchases, transfers, or ownership. It is virtually never anything that will do anything to stop mass shootings.

The argument goes something like this.

Well that's interesting, but as Trump has previously alluded to; it doesn't mean there aren't good people amongst the white naturalist group Nick trained with.
They just want to make America great again!

The media is horrible at getting to the truth. The police say that this is #FakeNews. They have no reason to suspect he belonged to this white nationalist gang.

Naturalist group? Would that be for people that like bird watching or people that like sunbathing in the buff? They have those just for white people?

And you can be sure there are more twisted young Americans out there. Because of the easy access to guns in the US, some of them will be armed. Tonight they might watch one of the American crime shows where the solution to the problems of the world is to just blast them. And some kid will start thinking that's what he should do.

We should have a lottery where you could buy a ticket and randomly select a state. The winner would be the owner of the ticket with the state where the next school massacre takes place. The massacre will happen.

WHY thats what I want to know.
What is different now.
why have schools lost control
why have parents lost control
why do kids not have any real responsibilities.
why do Hollywood actors and movies and games have so much influence.
why is it wrong to discipline a child
why is it cool to look up to a drug user and gangster.
why do we look at Government to fix it.

The fix has to start at home.

Because it’s entirely too easy for a child to get a hold of something that enables this.
What is different now.
different then when? Sandy Brook? Some arbitrary date in the past? Are you expecting things to change when politicians are unwilling to allow it?
why have schools lost control
what more can schools do? Many in the us already have metal detectors, police officers. Drills to prepare for such situations. How can anyone prepare for the possibility an unhinged individual will easily access an assault rifle and use it to gun down innocent people at random?
why have parents lost control
Do all parents have 100% control of their teenage children? The only thing different about today is the ease for one to do more damage
why do kids not have any real responsibilities.
you’re generalizing something you have no understanding of. Many kids that age are working. Many involved in sports, community, or working hard to further their education.
why do Hollywood actors and movies and games have so much influence.
they don’t actually. You’ve seen Hollywood movies. Have you ever gone and killed someone?
why is it wrong to discipline a child
discipline =/= abuse.
why is it cool to look up to a drug user and gangster.
why was it cool to look up to Wild West outlaws? To pirates?
why do we look at Government to fix it.
it is the governments duty to protect its citizens

The fix has to start at home.
exactly. By getting the guns out of it.
