Not to dismiss the tragedy, but I'll be interested to hear the discussion quickly drop the "assault weapon" term and steer directly to "guns" in general.
Why do you need an AR 12 Guage?
To soon. Still working on thoughts and prayers. Give me some time, it's still to soon.Quote:

Not even close to "too soon" for all that. Don't worry, the onion has you covered.

So I notice all the gun control advocates are screaming at Trump to "do something".... but not one of their wants would have prevented the Texas school shooting and would only have hurt law abiding citizens.... that is all.

Nothing to see here folks, move along. Your thoughts and prayers will no doubt solve the problem.

They forgot about the doors I guess.Quote:

Howcome there haven't been any shootings in Idaho or Wyoming, where I'd estimate the majority of the residents own guns?

Denser population. I'd argue Utah's killing epidemic is teen suicide not mass shootings. Personally I think the intermountain west is a great place to live, less crazies, that might be a factor too.Quote:

They are calling an accidental discharge of a handgun, a School Shooting. Nobody was injured, but it counted as a School Shooting.
It sounds cliche, but you just can't trust certain sources.

This is for every time I hear about America's gun culture.

^^^I don't think that graphic is accurate. I've seen numbers documenting homicide rates in Central America that were closer to 150 - 160 per 100K.
Yeah, maybe need a timeframe on that one.
^^^ So that isn't a "Gun Free Zone" then?
Despicable.
Couple months old, but I haven’t seen it.

She had two Dachshuns...apparently those are "lesbo" dogs, according to my lesbian neighbor.
Anyway, Jeanne looked like that dude up there with shorter hair. Colorado woman.
