So you’re plan is to try and tackle something that’s written into the constitution… that’s your goal? Say it’s nearly impossible to do everything else on that list which isn’t written into our constitution…but guns… they’re easier to fix…fucking hell you all are really naive.
Nope. I’m equating slavery to tackling something in the constitution and changing it. You know, the thing you just implied was not something that could be done. I’m sure you know that and are obfuscating.
I didn’t specify a plan one way or another. I just think it’s crazy that the talking points you presented seem pretty clearly designed to just kick this issue down the road, cause at least that way you still get to have your guns.
And believe me, solving all those things you mentioned would be great. But why not also try and do something about the major gun issues at the same time too?
Those “talking points” would solve our firearm violence. We don’t have a gun problem, we have a societal one. Random mass shootings are a new phenomenon…gang violence and drug violence are not. Solving these things with the list I posted, would curb our violence epidemic 100xs more than just another emotional gun law from people who don’t understand guns.
Nothing will improve the situation until we make a concerted effort to shut down gun manufacturing and distribution, even forcibly removing them from the hands of criminals any way we possibly can. And since the kid-killers at the NRA won’t allow that, the answer is - this problem of mass murder in schools is only going to intensify until everyone’s child is at risk and can no longer attend public schools of any kind. And that’s only the tip of the horrific iceberg of a shitshow that’s coming to our country.
Wow you’re really off the deep end aren’t you…I thought most conspiracy theory nut jobs where mainly right wing…but shit you just went into over drive and leaned hard left on that one…
I am as leftist as any human being ever could be - and damn proud of it. Saying the truth always seems like “going off the deep end” to people who aren’t able to comprehend. I consider your remark proof of that.
So what do you think is going to decrease school shootings? What are you proposing or support that will improve the situation?
We can start with:
Single payer healthcare
Ending the War on Drugs
Ending Qualified immunity
Properly funding our schools and not just rich white suburb schools.
Build more schools and hire more teachers for proper pay so the class room sizes aren’t 30-40 kids for one teacher.
UBI (at least start talking about it) once AI takes over most of the blue collar jobs.
End for profit prisons
Enforce the laws already on the books
Make sure there are safety nets for poor families so the kids don’t turn to violence/gangs to survive.
Increase the minimum wage
Recreate our mental healthcare so kids don’t turn to the internet for support. And to help veterans not end up as a suicide number.
Actively make a law to solidify Pro-choice rights. More unwanted children do not help our situation.
Banning Insider Trading for Congress
Term limits
Ranked Choice Voting so we can move away from a 2 party system
So basically… Fix every other nearly impossible to fix problem first before even deciding to do anything about the actual guns, if anything at all?
And to be clear, by impossible to fix, I mean politically, not that these problems are actually unsolvable.

You mean like slavery?
Are you equating slavery to owning firearms? You white privileged ivory tower types are hilarious.

We do have a societal problem. We also very much have a gun problem.
And proposing all these other things you know won’t get accomplished is a way to shift all the responsibility away from the gun issue itself.
And you aren’t being emotional about even the thought of some more gun control or anything to even tackle that issue head on? Come on.
Lol fantastic response. And its crickets from everyone else being critical
No, not crickets. Those things sound great, let’s do them. We should do everything we can, and that also includes stricter gun laws.
Not term limits though. It may sound like a good idea, but I implore you to research issues with term limits.
Term limits need to happen, otherwise you end up being ruled by politicians who are in a perpetual cycle of trying to stay in office.
And you can end with bringing your gun regulations up to speed to every other developed nation.
Or not because it’s not the guns… it’s our society that needs fixing.
