If the killer was named Mohammed, he'd be a terrorist. If the killer was Hispanic, he'd be an illegal drug dealer, if the killer was black, oh well, what else can one expect from blacks?
But it's only the whites who have an excuse for murder, they are investigated and found to be suffering from mental illness, depression, medication etc. It's the way it is.
People are astounded; how could this happen in an affluent all white community in Conn.? Mental illness affects millions of people, there are many more Adams around than people realize, no one knows when they may snap. No easy solutions.
You left out a coupe of words. Let me correct that for you:

The most important change would actually be removing from the bench ALL liberal judges. As you will soon see, there are adequate warnng signs in most cases that would negate these psychotic mass killers from owning a gun (yet they are ignored). The laws are already on the books. In fact, making gun purchasers (and all public-assistance recipients) subject to mandatory drug testing would be a reasonable restriction......

we should pass a law, evidently in secret, that would allow such a thing?
i'm just so sure the NRA could keep that one quiet. they'd probably start arguing for a new law to carry assault weapons because golly gee whiz, if we're going to have 2 armed guards in every school the next mass shooter is going to need some more firepower.
I mean they secretly have a concealed weapon (so the armed staff member cant be targeted). A little slow on the uptake, are we?

This is the world we live in, and it isnt going to change. Deal with it or die....

You are touching on an excellent point. Our kids are exposed to violence at a very young age from watching TV and playing games.
The "Savior" Democrats however would "NEVER" go after their cash cow and buddies in Hollywood. The Democrats act as if violence in movies and on TV does not exist.
The Democrat is incapable of logic and seeing past the end of his nose. The Democrat is also lacking in principle and ethics. He ignores negative factors and implications if it suits his NAZI agenda. He even propagandizes news like the NAZI and fascist governments do.
Benghazi was a text book example.
EXACTLY. Those things are worse than crack in making a useless, helpless slug out of a human.

Not a single one of the 600 guns sold required any background check or verified ID. It is a certainty that at least some of these guns ended up in the hands of thugs, and a near certainty that some are in the hands of the cartels.
You have to wonder at the inability of people to empathize with the inevitable outcome of moral transgression. Why is there such an outcry against the unions that the auto manufacturers have been working with for generations, yet such staunch defense of the NRA, which deliberately and transparently misconstrues the second amendment?
I don't understand why Americans are against their fellow Americans at all. They've been brainwashed to hate the poor, the disadvantaged, teachers, unions...the list keeps growing.

The problem with your argument is the old bait & switch routine and dishonest method you diabolical Democrats use.
OK - say we ban the AR. Then your argument above with your "revelation" changes from AR to the next level and eventually there is a total ban on all guns.
Another problem with your argument is that many more people are killed daily by handguns in cites that are infested with Democrats. Granted, this was an awful tragedy, however considering 10 times as many blacks as whites kill each other every year. In 2009, there were 16,197 homicides and guess what, most of those by far were by hand guns illegally owned.
You are making a case without being fact based and as a typical libtard, simply going on emotion.
Go to page 10 here to see data. http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr61/nvsr...
The diabolical, dishonest Democrat will stop at nothing to take away freedom and trample the constitution. What was that saying by President Axlered? I believe it was never let a good disaster go to waste, or something like that.
"Infested with Democrats?"
So you think that street thugs, drug dealers and Grand Theft Auto playing losers are posses of Democrat activists? What planet are you from? 90% of the country's citizens can't even tell you who their senators are.
Did you notice that many of the 10 states where gun deaths outnumber vehicular deaths are primarily low population white states? Does your "argument" hold for Alaska, Nevada, Utah, Oregon, Washington? So which is it, are white guys better drivers or better shots?
My statement is that guns are machines, and anybody who has any inkling of design understand the most basic tenet - form follows function. When you LOOOVE your machines, you have crossed over to the Twilight Zone, my friend.
Your argument that a ban on extraordinary and military firearms is the gateway to outlawing all guns is the fear mongering nonsense straight from the NRA playbook. That's like saying everybody who has gotten drunk or high is going to end up shooting meth.

The Columbine shooters emulated Leo DeCaprio from the movie "Basketball Diaries" when he imagined going into his school and shooting his classmates - down to the coat he wore.
If we taught children to respect eaIch other instead of looking the other way when children hang themselves because of ongoing and unchecked bullying, guns wouldn't matter.
If children were taught the consequences of both good and bad behavior as well as acceptable and unacceptable behaviors, they wouldn't expect to be treated with kid gloves because of the poison of political correctness.
If we all treated each other with more respect and tolerance, we would be better role models.
We failed the next generation. In every way.

So why do you think these shootings happen here more than there?
American Exceptionalism?

I don't know, I have some things that I consider. This has been a fringe subject here thus far.

I'd like to pose the following to the group:

Mental health law changed in the 70's, used to be easier to put dangerous people away and keep them there; not anymore. Coincidentally, that's about when these incidents started occurring.

Thoughts?(for once can we maybe just discuss an issue without trying to leverage this incident against either liberals or conservatives?)

Daily Horoscope for June 17

Aries

Your brain is firing on all cylinders so make the most of this clever interlude while it lasts! You'll be able to come up with some inventive and inspired ideas, especially if you're not afraid to try something new. A loved one might be quite excitable, so they get into a flap about something or they burn up a lot of nervous energy. And it's no good telling them to calm down because it will be a waste of breath.
