Trump thinks more guns are needed. Let's arm teachers. That country is seriously fecked.
I can forgive people for being bonkers but there have been some pretty disgusting reactions from gun 'enthusiasts' towards the victims of the Florida school shooting this week. America is quickly becoming a place I will likely do my utmost to avoid going to.
It's never been any different , it would be impossible to ban guns as so many already exist, parts of the country are so vast you can,t police it , so a gun is a safe haven for your family .
I dont agree with it, but perhaps having gun defences at schools is not that daft, as this is not going away is it, perhaps a huge tax levy on guns to pay for extra security at schools is an answer ?
So the shooter will just go for the teacher first. Yes, it is daft.
No one's saying gun control laws would sort America out overnight. If you make it much more difficult to get hold of semi automatics then it is at least going to reduce the chances of a nutter getting hold of one.
No law is obeyed by everyone and you don't expect new laws to have an instant 100% impact. But if you want to make a massive change then you have to start gradually.
I wonder what we'd say if it was a) a country like Saudi Arabia talking about arming teachers or b) the UK saying our teachers should carry knives as a deterrent.
In a) we'd probably say they were barbarians and uncivilised, and in b) we'd be completely appalled.
It's all too late
Trump is as mad as a lorry , as if a teacher with a pistol is going to stop a headcase packing a machine gun
The country has had it
I’m already seeing things like ‘false flag’ and ‘crisis actors ‘ on things like Twitter in describing this massacre.
Plus links about how gun control is akin to Nazism.
There are some people in the USA very deluded.
Apparently the armed " school policeman " at the Florida shootings didn't intervene.
If a trained chap won't risk his life why expect teachers to ?
That NRA bloke going on about socialists was plain scary.
So now the Bully Donald Trump blames one poor cop for
what happened whilst saying he will never repeal the
second amendment ( the right to bear arms ).
He is in the NRA's pocket for sure.
Is this just Trump's way of making sure he doesn't have to do another 4 years?
Gun control will never happen , you cant control or change peoples culture its like trying to stop beheadings/stonings in the middle East .
They could though change thier approach by heavier taxation on buying them , and fund better security entry systems and people , as in airports, drastic yes ,doable probaly.
Their culture isn't gun ownership.
2/3rds of people in USA support a ban on assault weapons. Backing for universal background checks way way way higher, 50% of gun owners support the somewhat ambiguous notion of 'tougher legislation'.
I don't think you would find close a majority for confining the defunct 2nd amendment to the annals history but there is appetite for some level of control. The number of guns in America has doubled in 20 years but the average gun owner has 8 guns, only 32% of households have a gun. What we are seeing here is a very vocal and well organised minority ruling the roost, they will need to be flexible.
The 'teachers have guns' thing is such a load of rubbish. So they just have to accept that people will run into schools with guns and their only hope is to neutralise the threat early on? American parents must look around the western world and think 'why does this happen nowhere else?'.
Unusual of CNN to report fake news!

I'm waiting for the OIG report, but I do think Nunes is going to win this particular battle with Schiff, which incidentally has been reduced to the level of political game playing. The CTH website also have an uncanny knack of predicting the future, so it's still all to play for.
The Schiff Memo Harms Democrats More Than It Helps Them
