Speaking of school shootings how about getting rid of it as a gun free zone? I have not read on the specifics of this shooting, but I’m surprised that an armed guard did not prevent the situation
The "gun free zone" is one of the stupidest ideas of the last 50 years. Might as well post an accompanying sign that reads "Attention Psychopaths! You are entering a target rich environment where no one is equipped to stop you!"
Part of the reason maybe most of the reason these senseless killings are happening is the deterioration of the family and the absence of God in these kids lives. Liberals now think it's OK to destroy a newborn so murder seems not so bad. Liberalism Democrats Destruction we are slipping into darkness as a country. Anyone who calls themselves a democrat nowadays should be ashamed of themselves.
The young man that was killed during the school shooting was credited with saving the lives of some of his fellow students. He lunged at one of the shooters and covered him while his class mates took cover. If Tiger Woods was awarded a Presidential Medal of Freedom this young man deserves one.
Is there something in the water in Colorado or is it just the psychotropic drugs that are attached to almost all other school shootings? Columbine, Aurora, Clear Creek, Denver....and then Sandy Hook, Isla Vista, Parkland. You know what they all have in common? Instead of asking what has to be done with gun control, we need to be doing something completely different much further up the chain. The government has been having this discussion and have been participating in it for a long time and so has Big Pharma. Young children are being medicated at an alarming rate with little to no understanding of either short or long term impacts. Any child on the autism spectrum, which is pretty much all the shooters, have a broad range of reactions and behaviors in response to the meds they take, and perhaps stop taking. Where parents used to be more involved, more informed, today they seem to be more inclined to turn their children's behavior over to medical personnel and drug companies. It can be exhausting to deal with any kind of mental or psychological problem in a child but just putting them on drugs and hoping for the best is not a good strategy. And as is typical, society reacts by flooding the schools with anti-bullying and rainbow acceptance-type programs rather than working backwards on the chain of outcome to determine root causes. Kids at school are being taught how to recognize a bully or a bully's victim and then stand up or report it. Huh? Why should everyone else, especially a child, be expected to do what a parent at home isn't doing? When I read stories of parents with 5, 6, 7 year-olds who are supporting their child's "coming out" or decision to "gender transition", I know where the problem lies. Children need their parents as leaders, mentors, and role models, not best friends, SJW's, and other types of bullshit. And then today I see that Colorado may just be one place even stranger than CA.... "Voters in Denver, Colorado decided on Tuesday to decriminalize psilocybin, or "magic mushrooms," by a thin margin. The initiative, led by Decriminalize Denver, passed by 1,979 votes when the voting tallies for Initiated Ordinate 301 were released on Wednesday. According to online results from the Denver Elections Division, 89,320 people voted in favor of decriminalizing, while 87,341 others voted against it. Election officials said on Twitter that the "results remain unofficial" until they are certified on May 16. The measure makes the personal use and possession of psilocybin mushrooms by those 21 years of age or older Denver's "lowest law-enforcement priority," according to the measure's language. It does not legalize psilocybin or permit its sale by Denver's cannabis businesses." Hey, drug the kids, pass useless gun control laws, but when the school gets shot up, just toke or drop away.
