    Nothing like meaningless, feel good legislation. Reminds me of the ban on switchblades enacted in the 50’s because of Hollywood’s scary depiction of them as gang weapons.

    Im more interested in what the anti-gun think. I doubt Trump knows anything about it. He doesnt seem like a gun guy. The folks who're so interested in banning things ought to know, though, right?

    Connecticut banned bump stocks already, they're not waiting on government to tell them what to do about gun control

    They did a bunch of other gun control after Sandy Hook. Haven't had a mass shooting since

    I imagine quite a few children wet the bed after that incident. For quite a while. These were very young children. I have deep compassion for them.

    Do you?

    No I think a lot of it was done by little children who watched their friends gunned down in front of them. I think that was very hard for them and I have great compassion for them. I think we can agree on that.


    Right?

    WHAT? what do you mean 'collective bed wetting'? Let me warn you not to 'go there' when speaking about those 20 children that were murdered. I live 10 minutes from that school, 3 nieces went to that school. Do NOT make this a political issue, that's all, do NOT do that!

    editing to add that many of the parents of those kids moved out of the state because they were threatened and bullied. The parents of Six-year-old Noah Pozner had to move 3 times! That's disgusting and all because of the hateful Alex Jones and malleable simple-minded people that bought his bull*** hook, line and sinker.

    It seems very difficult for some people to soften their heart even a little for those precious victims and the survivors. I don't understand it. It is so incredibly easy for me.

    I am sorry for what you must have went thru

    It's disgusting and infuriating. What this state went through in 2012 was absolutely tragic and the people that were pushing these conspiracy theories and making it all political intensified the pain for those people.

    Yes, the Sandy Hook shooting was absolutely tragic, and the conspiracy theorists are disgusting and infuriating. Very few here will gainsay that.

    How do you feel about those who used the tragedy to push for UBC laws, laws that would have not impacted that mass shooting or almost any mass shooting in our history?

    You feel the same about folks who support the NRA so they can protect their children from armed criminals?

    Can you back that up with objective data, or is it a feeling you have?
