Another College Shooting Today

[Hound]

MntMan made a flippant response. After so many posts from many of us, it starts to be..... Redundant. We are all tired of these shootings but know there is little we can personally do. We fight where we can and support where we can't. What we do know is that taking away the guns is not the answer. Screagle2 is right in that there is a dirth of good ideas. Going after mental illness..... How can any of us prove we are sane from one minute to the next (why should We have to. Piss somebody off enough and bad things will happen regardless of a gun, knife or bat being near) and all of us on this forum refuse to put that power in the Gov hands (right or left) lightly. The all or nothing stance from the right has gotten us the BS laws of 2013 but giving even an inch makes the lefts idea of a mile seem like a lightyear. Answers.... are hard to come by when neither side has ANY trust of the other. Many of us have spent a lot of time last year trying to talk only to be railroaded into BS "public hearings". That being said the only reason some of the laws were shut down was that in quiet moments amongst the roar, that was last year, some people did talk .... just enough to hear the insanity in those dead laws. I might add it was Dems doing the listening, the right had no power. Both sides of this 'debate' are so dug in, those moments are more and more rare. Screagle2 once you have been on here more you will find all types of people but the vast majority, while I don't always agree with, are good people with differing points of view. That is one of the strengths here. I would be amazed if you were banned... Flaming... I will probably catch some myself. We are all big boys here.
