Oh wait... Oregon has that. Fuck. Now what?
You already said that. Were you hoping for more uproots the 2nd time around?
What laws do you propose (that don't aleady exist) that would have prevented this. Please be specific.
I'll take a crack at answering your question, after you answer mine, since I asked first.
What was your question?
Since you can't read, there is no point in me taking the time to write out a long answer to your question.
Fucking cop out. You have no answers or a clue.
I see some incoherent sentence about an uproot. Is that the question? I don't know what that means. But sure. I want an uproot. Now answer my question or just admit you have no fucking idea about this.
That was "upvote" (auto-correct changed it to uproot). Sorry if you were unable to decipher it.
So, my question was, did you post your drivel twice, so that you could get more upvotes?
Well golly, I guess this is proof then that we shouldn't have separation of church and state. Lets allow the christians to run the government.
BTW, CNN just reported that the sheriff in this county is opposed to gun laws, so that should give us a pretty good idea as to how well he enforced existing laws.
I'm just very grateful that the NRA is looking out for our gun manufacturer stock dividends.
When I hear horrible news like this -- I sleep easier knowing that my dividends are still coming in.
Thanks NRA!
You are seriously fucked up.
You fail at rhetoric.
But we already knew that.
You seem to enjoy talking to yourself a lot. You also like to adress yourself as "we".
*address
You have nothing.
What do you have?
Are you going to answer the question? Then I'll begin the lengthy process of answering yours.
Oh, and just so I better understand the parameters of your question, do you want to know which laws I'd propose? Or do you want to know which laws I'd propose that the NRA and their shills won't stop through aggressive lobbying?
There was legislation proposed for stronger background checks, but the NRA and (R)s in congress prevented it. So the distinction is important.
"This is a political choice that we make to allow this to happen every few months in America. We collectively are answerable to those families who lose their loves ones because of our inaction. When Americans are killed in mine disasters, we work to make mines safer. When Americans are killed in floods and hurricanes, we make communities safer. When roads are unsafe, we fix them to reduce auto fatalities. We have seatbelt laws because we know it safes lives. The notion that gun violence is somehow different—that our freedom and our Constitution prohibits any modest regulation of how we use a deadly weapon, when there are law-abiding gun owners all across the country who could hunt, and protect their families, and do everything they do under such regulations—doesn't make sense."

Here you go smart guy:
1. Make all laws federal/national, so that people can’t circumvent them by simply crossing state lines.
2. Ban the NRA.
3. Confiscate all privately owned guns (but still allow a well regulated militia as per the 2nd amendment). Go door to door to get them. Spare no one.. Bring in the UN if needed for the extra manpower. At the very least, we can probably allow the Canadian and Mexican police to volunteer to help. I"m sure they'd be happy to.
4. Imprison anybody that interferes with 1, 2 & 3. (which includes Rush Limbaugh). Send them to camps to retrain them.
5. Create a national, single payer, health care system that includes a national database of mental health issues for all US residents.
6. Require people to obtain a license before they can have and raise kids. It is obviously way too hard for a significant portion of our population.
If the above laws and actions had been enacted 25 years ago, that would have prevented today’s tragedy.
Now, am I in favor of this? no, but that isn’t what you asked.

You sir have succumbed to the 24 hours news hype machine.
I don't know. 10 people picked off at a JC within 500 miles of here makes news in my little world.
What difference does it make if it was 500, 1000, or 3000 miles from you. It not like you were there or even could have been there.
fuck, I don't know. because I feel like it makes a difference? PNW and all that? how 'bout that?

The local connection? Christ.
maybe I'm missing something basic here. certainly wouldn't be the first time, so don't get all puffed up in your pants if that's the case. i've been torched by better men.
someone, I thought, was making the point that I was overreacting because news is immediate and recurring and hyperbolized today. my response was, well, something shitty happened in my general neck of the woods = news to me.
it does not follow from that statement, by any application of logical reasoning, that it's less important if it happens 1,000 or 3,000 miles away.
