I wake up in fear in Taiwan every day. There was mass shooting over 50 years ago.
Fortunately, Taiwan has no mental health issues, no social media and no 24 hour news channels.

riley540 said:dignin said:riley540 said:Social media, news, ect. I think it’s all contributing. The major difference between now and the 1980s is the full time access to media. It’s in our hands all day
Any evidence to back that up? Because there is a lot of evidence to show that there are a lot more guns out there today, and a lot more assault style weapons.
This isn't complicated, as much as some try and make it complicated.
I simply believe thag banning AR15s won’t end school shooting. Columbine, V tech, two of the worst and hand guns were used. I guess my belief is that nothing good, or bad will happen if a ban is implemented.
What i beileive is important is determining the error is some people that motivate them to do heinous acts.
You mean outside of the evidence displayed by many other countries that initiated and followed through on sweeping gun reform that have yielded very favourable results?"My brain's a good brain!"0 -

Don't you just love it when people talk about the second amendment like it was given by God to Moses on stone: "Thou shalt allow thy citizens the right to bear weapons intended to mow down the masses". And they also conveniently forget what that amendment was really about way back when it was written. Time for a change.

Didn't somebody do a comedy routine about "The Ten Suggestion" or did I just imagine that?

I get it finally. Adults, who you think would just understand things like an adult might, simply cannot because they were indoctrinated at a very early age:
