Popular Post skytrooper70 Posted June 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2020 Even if it were blamed upon trump, he would turn around and blame it upon Obama. So, no change, in US politics of blaming the "other" side, regardless of the problem. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because a very large amount of people don't think banning the vast majority because of the lunacy of a tiny minority is acceptable. Ask the people of London how Mayor Khan's crack down on knife possession is working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the police are defunded, the police wouldn't have shown up and stopped the shooter. Pretty obvious and important connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mass shootings of perhaps 5 to 50 or more people by one person using an automatic rifle (war weapon) can and do happen regularly. Mas knifings of perhaps 5 to 50 or more people rarely happen at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't imagine someone stabbing 58 people to death in a single incident. Not many knives 'go off' by accident killing (mostly) children. Seven people died from gun shot wounds during the last 'Gun Safety Day' run by the NRA. Oh! If only everyone had a gun...we would be so much safer.
