Another school shooting?

[ChumpDumper]

There were three officers (one from the school) who fired on Ramos before he went into the school so DMC is wrong again.

[DMC]

If only there was some way to "check" an 18-year-old's social media content prior to letting him bring home two AR-15's. Sort of a view into his "background," if you will.

Why not? It's not part of the background check now. They all have social media accounts and they all make comments or even live stream it.

[DMC]

"someONE"

Can you at least admit it took a TAC team to "stop" him?

Do you think the entire team shot him? Or did someone on the team shoot him? someONE?

But sure, ok. That's even more than one more gun. That's mOaR GuNz.

You really want that one back, don't you? That tiny w must have hurt to lose

There were three officers (one from the school) who fired on Ramos before he went into the school so DMC is wrong again.

The suspect was immediately engaged outside the building as he approached the school by a Uvalde Independent School District police officer, who was shot by the suspect, the sources said. After that, the suspect entered the school, barricaded himself in a classroom and allegedly opened fire, killing 18 students, who were mainly third- and fourth-graders, as well as one teacher, the sources said.

There, he traded gunfire with Uvalde ISD officer and Border Patrol Tactical Unit agents, a number of whom have children who attend the school, according to the sources. The Border Patrol agents responded to a law enforcement request for assistance.

DMC is going to go into super semantic mode next.

Or he'll go straight to his personal Rolodex.

They have restaurants too, why isn't their obesity level at 50% or higher?

I'm glad you asked!

Because they have laws.

It's illegal to kill children here, last I checked.

[baseline bum]

Nice duck and dodge

Honestly, I don't think there is a solution. These are obviously mentally disturbed people. what is their motive? Dubious "fame"? Making it policy not to release their names might help in that case. Just call every one "mentally disturbed shooter".

Higher level (better qualified) of security at schools is another.

Beyond that I really don't see any reasonable solutions.

USA only place on earth with mentally disturbed people

[Spurminator]

It's illegal to kill children here, last I checked.

It's also illegal to kill children there. So what's the difference? You'll get there soon.

[DMC]

Also LaGuardia has almost 1100 armed security officers. I don't think a school would need that many, but let's consider per capita of the building being secured.

[DMC]

It's also illegal to kill children there. So what's the difference? You'll get there soon.

It's not illegal to eat food there, nor illegal to have food there. The areas you showed were for kids. So kids are protected from being exposed to unhealthy foods in UK but not protected from being exposed to gunfire in the US.

lol "dreaming up that can't possibly be implemented"

I didn't even propose an AR ban, which is SA2 cult kryptonite but was actually implemented during the Clinton years and actually did have an affect on mass shootings. But now my compromise proposals are DOA because you say so. Overton window and all that jazz.

If you don't like my list, what do you propose other than "mental health services" and "militarize our kindergartens"?

no it didn't

[CosmicCowboy]

I would like to see high tech security systems on all schools. We have the technology. AI monitors everywhere. Auto locking doors perimeter and classrooms. The second a gun is detected the system goes on lockdown, preferably before the shooter even goes into the school.

There are 130k k-12 schools in the US. Who pays for this? The DHS budget to protect 5k airports is $7b, Extrapolate, you're looking at a $200b+/year budget to protect schools. If your answer is gun owners, then I am partially for it. The non-partially for it asks "who wants their kids going to school in a totalitarian surveillance state?"

Have qualified security available not just fat rent-a -cops that couldn't cut it on a regular police force. It doesn't have to be oppressive. Secret Service does a great job of being there without being obviously militant.

The "rent-a-cop" wife was one of the victims. He's a SWAT trained officer


Yeah, we need the US Army protecting 130k schools because this SWAT trained local officer couldn't even save his wife

I would like to see something where kids could anonymously report troubling things they see from other students on social media. Publicize it and emphasize they are helping the other student and not ratting on them.

Yeah, well Ramos er didn't go to school. How do you report someone who doesn't go to school?

I'm OK with raising the age to 21 to buy guns. I'm OK with extending the waiting period if it means better background checks and I'm ok with the checks including social media.

We finally agree on something other than body armor

Ok, you didn't like those. Back to thoughts and prayers.

[DMC]

outlawing body armor... "you must be exposed to a bullet!"

[Blake]

Says the Republicans every time.

Guns and prayers.

Apparently splits is back to thoughts and prayers too since his ideas are nonstarters and he doesn't like mine.

[CosmicCowboy]

And Blake is still a ing loser idiot.

Yeah that doesn't really mean anything coming from someone that gets on all over the place here nearly every time he steps into a thread.

[SnakeBoy]

fake tweet, boomer

"Speaking truth to power," said Rep. Dean Phillips, D-Minn., in a tweet that has since been deleted. Phillips' tweet included a photo of O'Rourke's interruption next to the famous photograph of a Chinese man holding shopping bags blocking the path of a communist Chinese tank. Phillips' office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Still with him

[Trainwreck2100]

so you can't see the difference between your original story "lone good guy rushes elementary school, takes out gunman" to the actual story "lone good guy gets outgunned by mass shooter because of his weaponry, waits 30 minutes for backup and tactical unit which take out gunman while 19 kids get murdered"

Is that true, they really gave him 30minutrd alone to massacre?

Why are they non-starters? Maybe that’s where the problem is?

I have already given the reasons.
