I Am For Gun Control

Yet another school shooting today. This time at a school outside of Denver.

America needs strong gun control laws now! If you want this insanity to stop, vote for for candidates who will fight hard for sane gun control laws. Write your Reps in Congress and demand a gun owner's license be required to buy guns and ammo. Demand a federal assault weapons ban. Send a donation to a gun control group today. If we want this carnage to stop we will all have to do our part: vote, write your government representatives. Take action for sane gun control laws!

I am 100% for gun control. This has gone far enough.

@DearAmbellina2113 Thank you. The majority of Americans want stronger gun control laws. The gun industry has used its wealth to block sane gun safety laws by bribing our politicians with campaign funding contributions.

@badminton I think you need to factor in and understand the role of the NRA and the power that it gets from regulations alone. It’s not exactly as easy as a “black and white” issue. There’s plenty of grey shades too.
I would hope all legal gun owners want stricter gun control policies.

You might want to ask Australians how that went before you claim that the US should change.

@ApollyonMagnus I call bullshit. First, some areas of the South do have high concentrations of illegal immigrants (particularly Texas, Florida, and Georgia) and MS 13 (particularly Virginia and North Carolina).

But the [i]real[/i] whoppers in your comment were about how the South supposedly doesn’t have a lot of shootings or crime. Historically the South has had a [i]much[/i] higher violent crime rate than the rest of the nation, and it still does. I’ve read several different theories as to why, but the South has always had a strong culture of violence.

I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt on dope, I’m not going to take the time to look that one up.

So sad to hear yet again,my sympathy to those who where wounded and for any fatalities,I’m not an American,and I respect your constitution for what it is,but surely someone must realise that there comes a time where amendments to parts of a constitution are necessary for the safety and security of its citizens,I get that your 2nd amendment is a controversial issue,there are European countries where having weapons is legal but a restriction is place on semi/auto weapons,personally I would ask for a person to prove why they need particular weaponry as a way of gun control r at least something along that line,for the sake of all those parents who lost the child through gun crimes,We the older generation owe it too our younger generation to protect n nurture their futures not take it away.

@Baremine I specialise in close quarter combat and gorilla warfare,up close and personal.S.O.F is special operations force/special forces forward recon.
Question... How are you proposing that guns should be controlled when even countries where guns are illegal are still having issues with citizens getting shot???

@ApollyonMagnus You might want to look at where most of their guns are coming from. FYI

The first step to ending the carnage from gun etc is to ban abortion, thus establishing the value of human life. Next you have ban the Democrats who encourage and support anarchy. Enforce the laws that are already on the books. More STUPID gun controls will not solve the problem. SCHOOLS ARE A NO GUN ZONE. Guess the law didn't work. Taking guns away has NEVER EVER stopped shooting crimes. Seems like terrorists use cars, trucks, and airplanes to kill people. Maybe we should ban those as well. Oh I forgot that is what the enviormentalists want. Back to the stone age. Get real fix the problem and stop using bandaids.

@Baremine "Ban the Democrats". That could happen in a fascist or communist dictatorship like Nazi Germany or Russia under Stalin. Here in the U.S.A. we are a democracy. We have freedom of speech. Citizens can vote for any candidate or party they choose. And there is NOTHING you can do about that.

the real issue is mental illness and they don't want to spend money to deal with it so guns are just easier to take away f*** them

So am I. I hit where I aiming.
