It's a real tragedy when school kids get murdered, especially when they are at school.

However, the control freaks jump on such incidents as a way to deprive everyone of freedom by engaging in collective punishment. The evidence shows that the control freaks are not really that interested in protecting lives as they are in imposing their agenda on the country. They love school shootings because they are golden opportunities to push their agenda.

For instance, did any of them say anything of importance about the on-going carnage in places such as Chicago?

or Baltimore = https://homicides.news.baltimoresun.com

And guess which ethnic group the vast majority of the victims was from?

Illinois and Maryland don't even score in the top 20, when it comes to firearms mortality. Sadly, I can't filter out the suicides and I can't find the homicide by firearms. But hey... I think cleaning up Chicago and Baltimore 'cause black people, isn't enough when it comes to this toppic.

@Diotrephes Actually, according to recent polling, gun owners would accept a number of gun control measures. Right now the problem is the NRA owns your state reps. If you want any of the measures listed below, talk to your state reps.

@Kwek00 The gun problem is the same as all of the other problems. If the greater society ignores a problem because it primarily affects a segment that it doesn't care about the problem will expand until it destroys the greater society.

This is true for things such as virus infections, housing, jobs, criminal prosecutions, cops shooting people, wars, water quality and accessibility, literally everything. So, when a problem breaks out and it is ignored, it will eventually spread and cause all kinds of disasters.

Politicians don't give a damn about the thousands of minorities that are killed by guns every year because they hate them and they regard the shootings as substitutes for lynchings. So, one day a White kid walks into a school and kills a dozen kids and they flip out. Or a Slave Patroller murders a Black driver and they make excuses for it and then the Slave Patroller thugs start shooting Whites and they get upset. Or a disease breaks out in a Third World country and they ignore it until it spreads to them. Of course that is when they make gobs of money so that's OK.
