I can't argue with our1962.
Kids are much different today than when I grew up. Our society has made pussies out of them. They are put on Ritalin by teachers at a young age because they can't handle them in school. That comes from the parents not doing their job at home. How many of these shooters are on or have been on prescription anti-depressant drugs? What happened to treatment facilities? I believe most all of the mental institutions have been closed in Iowa.
The shooter came from a nasty background. Why didn't DHS take him from the home years ago???? I know how the DHS here operates as I was on a Foster Care Review Board for several years and saw them in action. Not good.
You seldom see kids out playing like you used to. Most of their activities are now ORGANIZED by adults. What happened there? No more kids doing their own thing.....
Guns haven't changed since I was a kid, values have. Video games, killings on TV, moral values, and it goes on and on. How about all the faggottism, gender identity crap, and other nonsense that is taking place? How does that work on a kid's mind???
I respect the police but WTF was going on in Texas when the police on site did not go in and waited almost an hour for the SWAT or whatever it was to arrive? Waiting for the right protective equipment???? I understand they would have been risking their lives going into that school. Isn't the police's job to Protect and Serve???? Aren't they trained to do what is needed in these kinds of situations. Or are they just on the clock to write traffic violations???? They held back parents that wanted to go in and get their children.
Like I have stated before, we have plenty of money to send all over the world to fix things in other countries, we should have plenty of money to protect children at our schools. Guards, locks, limited access, ect.
Last night on BBC news they kept saying the shooter used automatic weapons. Lying bastards. You don't buy automatic weapons without a special permit. Semi-automatic is correct.
If anyone thinks restricting firearms from law abiding people in this country is the answer they need to do a little more research on it. Will all the gang bangers, criminals, and weekend shooters in Chicago follow any new laws? How gullible can a person be to believe that???
If this administration thinks infringing on 2nd Amendment rights will change anything see above paragraph. This is just another chance for them to politicize their agenda to disarm the LAW ABIDING American public. If you think people are fed up with they way things are going now, try disarming the law abiding public, and you may have a REAL INSURRECTION ON YOUR HANDS......
Spend the money to protect our kids, you're not going to change any of the other societal things.
