So then, we agree on this.

 

Or, it will change, if we have the patience to wait for eons.

 

Since I likely only have between 120 and 300 months left in this lifetime, waiting for eons is not going to happen. America just doesn't simply doesn't have the will to do something about the gun problem. Period. An awful lot of sloth, corruption and incomprehension on both the left and the right.

With freedom comes evil in some. I'm thinking Thailand will be much worse in ten years than now, especially seeing what is done with enforcement, unless the ones in charge get on the ball and realize tourism is going to disappear more each year because of what goes on here. People in the US hear about the crime here all the time from those living here, along with the news, and every time it's allowed a slap on the wrist, and the younger crowd is exempt from punishment, that means more crime later. Mass murders in schools can be stopped entirely, but that means all schools have metal detectors and armed guards, which some think is extreme, but comparing that to a child or children dying from some unstable nutcase, there is no comparison.

I can't see a nut job walking into a Temple in Thailand and start shooting kids praying.

Maybe not, but there are a lot of criminals in  temples already, and some are monks. Here, the ex police and military are the ones who did the biggest mass shooting. At the school and the mall, along with the many that happen monthly throughout the country. Mass shootings in schools can be stopped. Insanity, bad parenting, abuse and neglect, which makes a lot of these characters, will go one, and it will increase here as you'll see. There will always be those who are mentally ill and violent, as that starts in homes. 

Seems like about half of recent mass shootings are being done by trans community members. A statistical nightmare for any serious observers.

Not a temple, but a school massacre.

Yes gun is the problem if you seriously observed. A trans without gun can’t shoot and kill. See the point? 

jeez, how useless would ya feel ripping of dozens of rounds into a crowed church and doing such little human damage!

2023  - 22 homicide deaths by firearm in the UK. 17,920 deaths by firearm in USA ( not suicides). Take from these figures what you want.

The actual; real problem is the ability to kill more then a few using a gun or guns. Guns in most of the population's hands are not the problem. It is , besides the gangs and suicides, the mentally ill that are getting their hands on those guns. They can still have the ability to kill quite a few using a knife, machete or baseball bat, but having a gun makes it easier.

 

The idea is to keep those guns out of their hands. This can be done by all gun owners using lockable safes, not allowing anyone under 21 to buy guns, which can help a little with the maturity, but again, it's a mental illness and hatred towards certain groups or people that has them attacking them.

 

All schools having metal detectors and armed guards can reduce or eliminate the students being attacked. A very few have bought guns on their own, passing background checks, who were unstable, so the only way to combat that is a mandatory psychological before purchase, which can help but not guarantee they won't get past it. Many just took guns from legitimate owners, some parents, who didn't keep their guns locked away.

How many mass shootings a week are there in the USA compared to other countries, including Thailand, going back perhaps 5 years?

But how did this happen with such strict gun laws that Tim Walz signed into law?

 

Governor Walz Signs Historic Gun Safety Measures Into Law

Legislation includes additional $113.3 million to fight violent crime

May 19, 2023

[ST. PAUL, MN] – Governor Tim Walz today signed historic gun safety measures into law, including universal background checks and a red flag law that allows law enforcement to intervene when someone is at high risk of injuring themselves or others with a firearm. Governor Walz and Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan were joined by former Congresswoman and gun violence prevention advocate Gabby Giffords, legislators, and gun safety advocates to celebrate the action taken to address gun violence.

“As a veteran, gun-owner, hunter, and dad, I know basic gun safety isn’t a threat to the Second Amendment – it’s about keeping our kids safe,” said Governor Walz. “There’s no place for weapons of war in our schools, churches, banks, or anywhere else people are just trying to live their lives. Today is about taking meaningful action to create a safer future for our kids, and I am proud to sign this commonsense, life-saving legislation into law.”

“As a mom, I am very clear that our first responsibility to our kids is keeping them safe. With this historic budget, we are going to do just that,” said Lieutenant Governor Flanagan. “By signing a red flag law and universal background checks into law, we are saving lives and building a better, more hopeful future for our kids. Thank you to Congresswoman Giffords and all of the advocates who turned their deepest pain into hope and progress – their courage is why we are here today.”

Historic gun safety and violent crime prevention measures in Chapter 52, Senate File 2909 include:

Universal Background Checks

The bill requires a background check for private party transfers of pistols and semiautomatic weapons. A background check is not required for a private transfer of a hunting rifle or between immediate family members. Both parties must retain a copy of the record of the transfer for 10 years.

Extreme Risk Protection Orders

Extreme risk protection orders, also known as “red flag laws,” allows a family member, guardian, city or county attorney, or police chief to intervene when someone is at high risk of injuring themselves or others with a firearm.

Bureau of Criminal Apprehension

The bill invests over $43 million over four years for the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) to combat violent crime statewide. This investment will provide increased funding for BCA lab analysis, analytics supports, and to continue partnerships with local law enforcement.

Limiting No-Knock Warrants

The bill limits the use of no-knock warrants. These warrants can only be allowed if either the search cannot be executed while the premises is unoccupied or the occupants in the premises present an imminent threat of death or great bodily harm to the officers executing the warrant or other persons.

Other highlights of the public safety bill include:

Providing funding to reimburse counties for the costs of sexual assault examination kits, to fill the gap in federal victims of crime act funding, and for the BCA to meet a 90-day goal for forensic evidence exam turnaround times.

The bill establishes the Office of Missing and Murdered Black Women and Girls to promote the safety and success of Black women and girls through training, advocating for systems change, and ending violence against and trafficking Black women and girls.

Investing $87.2 million to help ensure evidence-based practices, bring community supervision systems up-to date with needed funding across the three delivery systems, and provide state funding to tribal governments.

$70 million for the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) to provide grants to community-based crime prevention programs. Eligible grantees include organizations that support victims of gun violence, youth support, violence interrupters, homelessness support, neighborhood watch, re-entry programs for incarcerated individuals, and community and faith-based projects.

Providing $5 million in fiscal year 24 for the new Intensive Peace Officer Education & Training Program. Local law enforcement agencies will be able to receive grants so they can pay education and training costs, in addition to paying the candidate a salary while they are in training.

$35 million over two years in juvenile-justice efforts. This includes funding for youth-intervention grants, dual status youth programs, restorative justice grants, increasing the capacity of OJP’s Youth Services Office, establishing a new office at OJP for Restorative Justice, and funding an innovative pilot program in Ramsey County for juvenile home placement and treatment.

Ensuring incarcerated individuals have access to free phone calls for family and friends.

Increased funding to the Department of Human Rights to strengthen their investigative capacity, legal team, settlement monitoring team, and equity and inclusion in state contracting work. These investments will support the Department’s vision to make Minnesota a state where everyone can lead lives fully of dignity and joy.

The Governor has long advocated for public safety funding for local police, fire, and 911 departments. The Governor expects to receive and sign the legislation in the coming days.

Almost 2% of Americans identify as transgender. Yet out of thousands of U.S. mass shootings in the last decade, fewer than 1% involved a trans shooter.
 

In other words, if you have more trans people, you have fewer shootings.
 

Seems you must have a scary trans hiding under your bed — a nightmare for any serious MAGA, lost in fairy tales.

No criminal record. Mental illness isn't so easy to spot, especially when a person just walks into a store to buy a gun. All they have is the background check to go on , at least for now. A psychological before purchase might help with some, but isn't a guarantee, as policemen have to pass them and history has shown some are also loose cannons waiting to go off.

It's all they have and it should be a lot more stringent, and I sold guns for years when I lived in Texas. There isn't an easy way to stop this as guns are part of the American culture and most owners are legitimate and don't cause trouble.

The President sent his condolence and ordered flags at half-staff in Wisconsin. Guns violence will ceased.
