    Conservatives are group thinkers. Anybody who isn't a Trump supporters must vote for a democrat eh? Try to get out more and expand your horizon.

    It will never happen so I dont entertain such ideas.
    However, in Australia we have light jail sentences compared to the US. For that reason I'm predicting a vigilante factor in the future.

    Yet (ANOTHER) Trump Supporter (Enabled by Trump/In a state that Trump carried in 2016) exercising their "2A Rights".

    As usual democrats are going to want to do a gun grab again although reportedly this thug was a felon who wasn't even supposed to have a gun. And that supports the NRA and conservatives argument that felons will ALWAYS have guns no matter what. So taking guns away from people just wanting them for defense and in case the government goes rogue, would be unconstitutional.

    And should that happen, there would be far more death and blood in the streets from thugs doing invasions knowing the average citizen had no means to protect their families. Think sex perverts are bad now grabbing kids? NO child will be safe if guns are taken.

    Ah so.
    He wasn't a felon, had a misdemeanor trespass charge some time back, the gun was legal. The narrative is that he used an AR type rifle but one of the victims that was interviewed showed his shoulder where he was shot and it looked like a shotgun wound. Seems to have been a number of shrapnel wounds as well including that toddler.

    I think legislation should be passed that all felons should be wide open to search and seizure at all times.

    VERIFIED incidents that someone is mentally unstable should apply.

    Firearms probably should be required to only work by the person whose fingerprints had pre-programmed them.

    Parents should be charged in shootings when their child uses them to hurt someone.

    Well it's a garbled situation so I guess mixed messages are to be expected. OPD says all their interactions with him were minor.

    I want a surface to air missle or perhaps a tactical nuke. Or I could just settle for a puny rocket launcher.

    Is that what you tell women who successfully keep a man from raping by using her gun? So she can "Feel Like A Man"? Talk about deplorables.

    So, walk that down the road a bit. Does it make any sense to you that the shooter would have a Beto bumper sticker if he's running on a platform to take away all guns, considering that this guy just slaughtered a bunch of innocents with an AR-15?

    So, you want to charge the parents in shootings when their 36 year-old child shoots someone. Even the Bible changed from that pov and said that each person is responsible for his own crimes.

    Beto might have mentioned taking everyone's guns before but now the control freak is yelling it from the rooftops. He hates the federal and state constitutions because they favor personal freedoms.

    Try to stay on track. Steve N is trying to blame this on a Beto Democrat, but can provide nothing more than "a friend texted me" as evidence.

    I have no problem with the Rocket launcher and SAM. Shooting down drones would be fun, though pretty damn expensive.
