    surely we can do a better job of restricting the 2nd amendment rights of people with these characteristics

    the safety of society should carry some weight in these circumstances

    we have no-fly lists

    I don’t think anyone supports people with mental illnesses to have firearms.

    The issue is always that any of these proposals just end up limiting rights for law abiding citizens.

    I believe there are already such restrictions. The question is whether they should be expanded. There has been some pushback on the grounds that expanding them will discourage people from getting help. As is often the case, you have to try to balance competing interests. But it seems to me we have an awful lot of people who are known to family members and mental health professionals to be unfit for gun ownership. Imo it should be easier to get them on a restricted list, subject to right of appeal, etc.

    Why do you an your kind only want change when it’s a crazy white person doing the killing? I never hear any peep out of you about the horrible murder rates in Chicago and Baltimore. If you are man enough to say that liberals and black leaders really don’t give a **** about inner city crime and white liberals don’t want to address those problems due to potential blowback from their peers I’ll understand.

    The shooter in this case is not white. Unless you want to count someone of Middle Eastern origin named Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa as white.

    I'm surprised the guy could get that much ammo. It's crazy expensive these days.

    Last week, hate is the reason for this.
    This week, guns will be blamed... there will be no mention of hate.

    last week was more about sexual repression

    but i do think Asians have good reason to feel that a target has been drawn on their backs in the past year

    Hope they take a statistical approach to understand who they truly have to be concerned about.

    Is NYC worth visiting right now? My wife is ready to go back, but I don't want a shell of what is was end of 2019. Is most everything open?

    did my saying sexual repression trigger a desire on your part to visit the city?

    jk

    anyhow you can eat indoors, and the weather is nice enough now that outdoor dining really is the way to go...could be one of the positive benefits from covid...more streets and sidewalks configured to outdoor dining...broadway isn't open

    if you mainly want to take in the sights and eat well I think April/May are good times to come
