Uvalde Massacre - AWB 2.0

[Nazgul]

The Isrealis faced school shooting in the 70's-80's if my memory serves. They armed and trained everyone involved. Wife made couple trips there, children on field trips had armed teachers, parents and military with them. They solved the issue that was probably a more organized terrorist threat than a crazy kid.

Can we get back on topic? You know, the one about Senate Republicans getting ready to sell us all down the river.

McConnell Urges GOP to Work with Democrats on Gun Control Legislation

Every time I see mention of the universal background checks I can't help but yell, but that wouldn't have stopped any of the mass shooting that you are supposedly so upset about.

This kid was mentally ill. He was cutting on his face. he should have been committed for treatment because of it. That would have then made him ineligible to buy a gun.

1. Good point. Looks like next session starts June 7th

2. Correction, Buffalo

3. Without grandfather laws, it is effectively a gun-grab, which would be a non-starter. Both of the guns used in the recent shooting were bought legally from a dealer, not private sales. It would make it 'look' like they are doing something impactful, even if it wouldn't completely prevent access to these weapons by lunatics moving forward.

The easiest way for them to pass any legislation would be a carbon copy exact duplicate of the 1994 AWB, with updated list of specific models. Yes, the gun manufacturers would work to get around it, but 10rnd mag limits and fewer models being made would be seen as a win and has the best chance of getting the votes. If there were a filibuster, it would embolden and fire up dems for midterm lifts at the ballots. For Dems, it's a no-lose situation to try to push something through.

You mean like this one from last year:

Text - S.736 - 117th Congress (2021-2022): Assault Weapons Ban of 2021

Although I don’t think our senators would sell us down the river, time to write them and tell them to hold fast. Preferably write them a physical letter as that can’t just go into a spam folder.

If they want to do something that will actually help, train and arm the teachers. Give SRO’s access to a rifle and armor so they can engage on equal or better terms. Stop letting schools and churches and so many other places be soft targets.

Offer to pay the teachers a sizable amount extra to take on the responsibility. They always complain about not having enough money. And maybe it will push out some of the lefty nutters too and leave us with less insane people teaching our kids. Sounds like a win win.

[rugertoter]

Didn't you see?
Chuck U Schumer just backed away from a gun control vote, because he said it had little chance of getting passed.
Sounds out of character to me, but...

Yeah, I read something about that. And yeah, it is most certainly out of character for that clown.

 

[BIGE7.62]

Those were rhetorical questions, the answers are abundantly clear.

Sorry but did or didn't you read stuff ?
I didn't just felt like this how it's done now .

Is there something I don’t know about Young and Braun? Afaik they have been fairly decent on the 2a.

 

[MCgrease08]

Coming into office I thought Braun would be the one we'd have to watch. He's been surprisingly okay on 2A. Young can't be trusted as far as we can throw him.

They should have spent the $40 billion we sent to Ukraine to improve school security.

But that wouldn't end up back in their bank accounts. Or their kids' bank accounts.

Mitch McConnell (R-KY) on Thursday urged Texas Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) to work with Senate Democrats on gun control legislation.

www.breitbart.com

What McConnell actually said:

“I’ve encouraged him to talk to Sen. Sinema, Sen. Murphy and others who are interested in trying to get an outcome that’s directly related to the problem,” McConnell said of Tuesday’s mass school shooting. “I am hopeful that we could come up with a bipartisan solution that’s directly related to the facts of this awful massacre.”

We'll have to wait and see, but I think Mitch thinks he might be able to get 10 Dems over to some things that might actually prevent some of these:

1) Mental health
2) Funding RSOs (turns out there wasn't one at the elementary school)
3) Building physical security (shooter came in through an unlocked side door)
4) Teacher security training (policy was to close/lock classroom doors, they weren't... shooter ducked into the first room 20 ft down the hall)

 

[MCgrease08]

Yeah, I'm sure Mitch will convince rabidly anti-gun dems to go along with a purely targeted GOP plan, with absolutely no gun bans or UBC nonsense.

 

[JettaKnight]

TBF, the analogy would mean someone it's asking to ban schools.

And they took away a load of freedom from us as travelers after that.

 

[MCgrease08]

If Republicans Collaborate with Dems to Betray Us on the 2A, They Will Lose the Midterms

The GOP better not give up one single inch on gun freedom.

Well at least in the liberal media, the police inaction seems to be getting more fire then gun control.

I am not sure if this fits in with the Defund the Police narrative, or what.
