I Believe In Teaching Children Gun Safety
This is an imperative. A 20 year old cannot legally buy a beer but an 18 year old can buy unlimited firearms. Of course we must teach children about gun safety. And when to duck.

I have a feeling we'll have to wait 3 more years and 30 school shootings later to pass reform.

@Brawny We need reform in the way parents raise their kids and the education system in so far as that they actually educate kids and teach them discipline. Look at how many school shooting there were before 1980 and you will have an idea if you look at how kids were brought up then compared to today. We all had guns and hunted by the time we were 16 but parents took and active part in in upbringing unlike today. We did not have smart phones, social media and we weren't given accolades for finishing last. Our kids are raised to be snowflakes today with parents using electronic babysitters like the internet and violent games. Kids used to work to earn their money for college, clothes, cars and the gas for them. Today everything is given to them and if they don't get a smart phone from their parents by the age of 12 they have hissy fits until they get one. Our society is turning to shit because of the liberal way of raising kids and poor education systems run by liberal bent politicians.

@acpguy you fail to realize that the way we were raised was different than today because at that time the majority of households could survive on a single income.
We live in the age of greed and materialism.
It’s not just the parents. But I agree parents do need to step up. But we also need to realize that mental health needs to be addressed and that’s not gonna happen with mental health institutions being closed down across the country as well as caps being placed on insurance for how long they can hold suicide attempt patients/ take a small leap to go from suicide to murder - suicide.

@KaysHealingPath Lady you do not have a clue. When I grew up both parents worked due to run away inflation, taxes were about 45% or more of your income

@Brawny Brawny we used to be able to by M-1 carbines through mail order when I was 16 for $45 to $60. That is the counter part to today's AR except it was much lighter in weight, shorter so it was an ideal gun for someone wanting to sneak into schools. Today's AR-15 a lot more (cheapest might be $400). I could rake leaves or shovel snow for a week and have enough money to by an M-1 carbine.
By the way I see you are a typical perverted liberal looking at your posts:
"What’s your favorite way to be seduced?"
"Do you prefer sex at night, in the morning, mid-afternoon, or NOW?"
"When was the last time you examined your bewbs in the shower?"
Why is it most of the liberals you see on here are the ones that send ladies pictures of their privates and post weird sex stuff like yourself? You should be marked at a potential sex offender most likely groping children.
