Well done to Mayor Adams in NYC. Less than 30 days into his job he came up with a comprehensive plan to try to get a hold on the gun violence.0

Ha, indeed. Insane.
A 12-year-old wrote his governor to oppose a gun law. A stray bullet killed him on Christmas.
Before winter break, 12-year-old Artemis Rayford wrote a letter to tell Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee that he opposed a new law reducing restrictions on guns. Before the end of that break, the sixth-grader would be shot and killed by one.
In his letter, Artemis told Lee (R) that his school’s anti-violence initiative with the Memphis Police Department had been discussing a law that went into effect in July, allowing people 21 and older, and military service members 18 and up, to carry a weapon without any training or permit.
He introduced himself as a student at Sherwood Middle School before writing his thoughts about the legislation.
“It is my opinion that this new law will be bad and people will be murdered,” Artemis’s letter said.
Shelby County Schools did not respond to a request for comment Saturday, and it was not clear whether the letter had been sent to Lee. The governor’s office didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment Saturday afternoon.
From 7 years ago but I suspect it was the same or similar this past Christmas as well.
27 Americans were shot and killed on Christmas day
In a grim reminder that violence in America never takes a holiday, 27 people were killed and 63 injured in shooting incidents on Christmas Day this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive. This tally does not include people who shot themselves in suicide.
The number of Americans killed in gun homicides on Christmas Day is comparable to the number of people killed in gun homicides in an entire year in places like Australia or Britain. The 27 people killed by guns in America on Christmas this year is equal to the total number of people killed in gun homicides in an entire year in Austria, New Zealand, Norway, Slovenia, Estonia, Bermuda, Hong Kong and Iceland, combined.

Just admit that your comment made no sense and that you posted bullshit without even reading the article or being aware of what was happen in NYC. Just admit it. Since when do you have nothing to say? I’ve seen you post paragraphs responding to obvious trolls here but this isn’t worth your effort? What does this mean?:Halifax2TheMax said:

Ha. Yes. Indeed. Insane. You post an article about Tennessee (R). What does that have to do with my post and your response What does any of this meanHalifax2TheMax said:Ha, indeed. Insane.A 12-year-old wrote his governor to oppose a gun law. A stray bullet killed him on Christmas.
Before winter break, 12-year-old Artemis Rayford wrote a letter to tell Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee that he opposed a new law reducing restrictions on guns. Before the end of that break, the sixth-grader would be shot and killed by one.
In his letter, Artemis told Lee (R) that his school’s anti-violence initiative with the Memphis Police Department had been discussing a law that went into effect in July, allowing people 21 and older, and military service members 18 and up, to carry a weapon without any training or permit.
He introduced himself as a student at Sherwood Middle School before writing his thoughts about the legislation.
“It is my opinion that this new law will be bad and people will be murdered,” Artemis’s letter said.
Shelby County Schools did not respond to a request for comment Saturday, and it was not clear whether the letter had been sent to Lee. The governor’s office didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment Saturday afternoon.
From 7 years ago but I suspect it was the same or similar this past Christmas as well.
27 Americans were shot and killed on Christmas day
In a grim reminder that violence in America never takes a holiday, 27 people were killed and 63 injured in shooting incidents on Christmas Day this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive. This tally does not include people who shot themselves in suicide.
The number of Americans killed in gun homicides on Christmas Day is comparable to the number of people killed in gun homicides in an entire year in places like Australia or Britain. The 27 people killed by guns in America on Christmas this year is equal to the total number of people killed in gun homicides in an entire year in Austria, New Zealand, Norway, Slovenia, Estonia, Bermuda, Hong Kong and Iceland, combined.

These Two police officers? Pretending, preeetending, to be two other police officers? GTFOOH! You better step away from the desk before your ass gets tazed! Wanna see a rooster?
Just move, it’s a free country.
?? what is this. None of what happened in NYC over the course of last week bothers you at all. I understand. Your politics won’t let you get upset over it. You’re awaiting the next shooting in Texas, or Florida, or the next Crazy white guy with an AR right? Disgusting.

Ok so what would you suggest to the mayor on how to fix the problem? I asked a question up a couple of posts not one person answered I’ll ask again, Surely we can all agree theirs too many damn guns in this nation! Somewhere above 400 million of them!nicknyr15 said:

You have to change a culture, a mindset. NY already has some of the toughest gun laws in the US. Changing the socioeconomics of certain areas would help too.josevolution said:

Remove all the guns you want but they will still be here.0 -
Obviously Jose. I don’t understand your response to my post. I’ve done nothing but complain about the insane amount of gun violence in NYC and it bothers certain people here because they get offended politically. And our current mayor has already put his plan into place on how he intends to combat it, which I praised In an earlier post, unlike our last trash mayor. I’m still, a week later, trying to figure out wtf Halifax response meant or how it adds to any sort of discussion.josevolution said:

I don’t blame you. It’s scary. I’m praising the fact that he actually has a plan. I’m hoping it works. I have faith in him and our new police commissioner.josevolution said:
