@halfdeadhammerhead I've read through a lot of your comments. I think you care very deeply about your beliefs and you're very passionate about communicating those beliefs, but you run into trouble with the tone you use--you come across as extremely aggressive and condescending. If you worked on the tone you used, you might see your discussions with people on this website lean in a much more positive direction.

Let's blame the guns, not the shooters... let's blame the materials for the explosives, not the guy who made the bombs. Let's blame the F250 not the guy who mowed down 30 innocent people. We have a mental health and a bad people problem but people want an easy solution. People want to flip a switch and for everything to be solved. If all guns, knives, and flammable materials were banned tomorrow I guarantee you we would see such creativity in the new ways and methods evil people and criminals would develop to keep killing innocents. But we have a gun problem, right?

And people can say what they want about Texas but I see a lot more togetherness and people working together for a solution on this then most other states. In dozens of cities you're seeing both conservative, liberal, Christian, Jewish, atheists--any number of different people but all Texans--all opting for higher taxes or offering to personally donate to pay for the security and the jobs needed. People who cant afford to donate or opt for tax breaks volunteering time and services. You're seeing nonprofits donate money as well as local businesses. It's interesting that Texas gets all this hate about gun control but seems to be one of the few states doing anything about the actual problem.

I also think its extremely interesting how schools, businesses or locations In general with strong security protocols, and in some cases armed security guards or trained, onsite police officers, never see this type of violence--but that's too much of a financial investment right? You're okay with your bank having heavy duty security but not your kids elementary school? "Oh, but my kids shouldn't have to have heavy duty security." Or "I shouldnt have to/dont want to pay more taxes so the schools can do that, but I'll still complain about it." Yeah, there shouldn't be evil in this world... but there is. You want something done about it but you dont want to help pay for it, and yeah higher city taxes suck but I'm fine with them if this is where it goes.

I'm a native Texan, I've lived here all my life and I've known 0 people killed by a firearm. I've known 34 who were killed in car accidents. Are we going to ban cars? All you folks saying a car isnt a tool meant to kill, doesnt that eliminate the intent of someone using it to kill? Is it a problem with the person driving like a maniac or with the car?

Now I'm not saying this to push for more or less gun control, I'm going through all of this to clarify that the dirty little secret here is that violence and criminality doesnt directly correlate to gun control legislation. Its also just as easy to build explosives using what's underneath your kitchen sink. Or you can just hop in a car and run down 40 kids when they're leaving school at the end of the day. Until we start acknowledging that there's an inherent issue with mental health here nothing is going to change.

Considering the top 10 worst countries by murder rate in the world also have extremely strict gun control laws--strict to the point that it makes Australia and Japan look like Texas, the kicker is, even with the strict gun control laws in these countries, many of the deaths are still firearm related because criminals dont care about the law.

"In the past 48hrs, the USA horrifically lost 34 people to mass shootings. On average, across any 48hrs, we also loseā€¦ 500 to Medical errors 300 to the Flu 250 to Suicide 200 to Car Accidents 40 to Homicide via Handgun Often our emotions respond more to spectacle than to data."

With respect, why hasn't the NZ government banned smoking? 15,000 people a year die due to smoking or 2nd hand smoking related illness a year in NZ, that's roughly 13 people a day and much higher than any mass shooting in the US could even hope to compete with. If you're main concern was preventing death, then I'm wondering why we arent focusing on the actual deaths.

No worries at all, I know that feeling. I would offer you some strong coffee if you were local to the DFW area.

Incorrect. An assault rifle is a magazine-fed automatic rifle designed for infantry use... and cant legally be obtained by most civilians and those that can usually have special licenses and are directly screened by the ATF and FBI.

Oh I get it, and for the record it's not me I'm not downvoting anyone. I just tend to focus more on the comedy versus the possible politics since EVERYTHING is political now a days anyway. You and I are good man.
