    Good evening to all-
    What can be said.
    In our country, is is too easy for all people to obtain guns. It doesn't matter what political view we each might hold, crazy-ass people can get and use guns.
    I detest tRump, but even he doesn't deserve this.

    Too many guns. Too many guns.

    you all be safe and keep well- Ed

    Yes, there are too many guns in the wrong hands. Do you have a solution? How can we prevent the wrong people from having guns?
    And how do you feel about the gun used to stop the shooter?

    People have murdered people since the beginning of the world Tony, taking away the "good guys" guns will not stop the murder attempts or the ones that succeed. The whole gun-control is simply what the lefties think will make controlling the people easier. Even the nazis could not completely control the Jewish people, or extinguish them. You can bet they would keep their guns, an/or their hired gunmen.

    It's the haters, power-hungry, idolators, and cowards that love to hide in the "dark" in this country that are the problem, not the guns.

    1,500,000 defensive uses of guns per year reported by CDC but we don't report on guns used in defense or prevention.

    The Nazis did take most of the guns out of private hands though. I believe they may have allowed shotguns.

    That really wasn't the point I wanted to relay, but yes, I know everything was taken away from some, including their lives. People that have hate brewing in their hearts can turn to killing, and they don't need guns to kill.

    Yes. Killing is a matter of will; not the availability of weapons.
    And when someone wants to kill many people, a gun won't be their choice of weapon:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_Land_fire (87 killed)
