ACTIVE SHOOTER: MARJORY STONEMAN DOUGLAS HIGH SCHOOL IN PARKLAND

ISWYDT

 

it is true, HOWEVER; anti gun crowds will see this as an “a-ha” moment and say because it was only one person

 

That’s exactly what I said!

Imagine the FL shooter with a bow and arrow vs AR style weapon. There’s your answer.

Oh, I am not anti-gun, either.

 

I’d be pretty hypocritical if I advocated taking away someone’s right to own or use something so that something doesn’t end up in the hands of the wrong people or children. I’m not entirely sure people need to own AR 15’s but if you told me I could own a rocket launcher i’d probably have one as a conversation piece so I will not sit here and say take away law abiding citizen’s rights just so I can mask this illusion of safety in a country where the gun is just a tool and if someone is so inclined to kill they are going to use any means necessary.

 

So what if there was an age restriction on the purchase of these guns? Like you would have to be 21 to purchase. Most of these school shootings are y people under 21. That could stem it a little I would think. I still cant figure out why someone thinks they need one of these rifles but then, they have been around since the 50s and it only became an issue in the last 20 or so years. That brings me back to the original post I made on this - its a social behavioral issue

 

Apples and people, my friend. Comparing the civil rights of a human being to the “neato” factor of showing off something you’ll probably never use in a real world situation is a little different. I get where you’re going, though.
