    Its the only solution. All this other crap is superficial nonsense to make people feel better that 'something' is being done.

    So the only solution is to "just be better people." Wow.

    We should apply that everything. It would end all wars. World Hunger would end. There'd be no crime. We'd never have any problems ever again.

    Expecting everyone to just be better people is naive. We need actual solutions. We already preach unity and Harmony and tragedies like this still happen. That doesn't mean we should stop preaching that, but it's not a viable solution to real world problems.


    It's rather odd you think this dystopian outlook is viable, yet you are so against socialism which is the same concept.

"Red Flag" laws may be more helpful, but that sidles up to the concept of involuntary commitment and, in some instances, allows local governments to selectively target certain owners of firearms and the benefit of that leeway is in the eye of the beholder. I don't know if lawmakers have the backbone to go down that road.
    One thing I think this actually leads to, and it would take someone more knowledgeable than I of the ins and outs of these laws and institutions to make a good policy, is that we really do need increased detection and treatment of mental illness in children. There have been quite a few of these guys who were clearly really, really, really screwed up in school, never got help, then grew up and killed a bunch of people, with Dayton being the most recent example and Sandy Hook being the most horrific.

    Thats your assessment? That i encourage people to defend themselves against violent assault?

    This is the logic that we are dealing with. Fantastic.

    We have become a fallen society. Until we fix the homes and morality nothing will change. Your actual solutions do nothing.

    No, you were hoping for people to be killed over a debunked conspiracy theory pushed by Posobiec, an open white supremacist who also pushed the hell out of Pizzagate.

    (and let us not forget that pizza joint was also shot up with a assault rifle by someone who believed Posobiec's BS and believed they needed to go protect children with force because of his words)

    What in the hell are you talking about? More emotional nonsense devoid of fact.

    You stated that I welcomed the murder of people who I didn't agree with politically. I asked you to refresh my memory because that is not something I would ever say.

    Then you came back with a conversation that took place after a reporter was brutally beaten by Antifa thugs and I hoped that those that defended themselves with guns from assault would teach them a lesson.

    Now you are bringing up pizzagate?

    What is going on with the left?

    No, you wanted people you disagreed with politically killed because the same white supremacist who pushed Pizzagate said they were throwing concrete laced milkshakes at people, and just like Pizzagate, the fact that it was completely ridiculous and totally debunked didn't matter. But I suppose you'll run away from that when someone with a plain old coconut milkshake is shot dead, just as you wished. (also, I'm not on the left, I'm just not on the fascist extremes of the right)

    Fascinating that you can ignore the clear assault that took place.

    And that assault was not what you were talking about at the time. Period. You were basing your death wishes off of Posobiec's Twitter feed conspiracy theories, and now you're moving the goalpost after someone went out and actually killed people.

    I do wish that gun owners would defend themselves against Antifa and send a lesson to the violent terrorist group.

    Yes. Let's root on assaults with no defending ourselves.
