So yeah, let's all continue to do nothing and hope mass shootings just magically stop. That'll fix things?
Passing more laws that never get enforced nor are intended to be enforced is the same as doing nothing. Hunter is the poster child for more guns laws.
How about actual consequences for bad behaviour ? Criminals, when arrested, are out in the street within hours. No cash bail. And then the prosecutors drop the charges, because the criminals are the victims. They have more rights than the actual victims.
Who again wants to defund the police ? Ain't my side of the aisle. Well they sure did a great job, didn't they ? The system is totally broken.
This is not the urban nightmare made for politicizing. It is a tragedy.
There were according to reports that there have been only 29 murders by any means in the state of Maine this past year. Not to make light of this by any means but 29 is a long weekend in Chicago.
This is someone going off the rails. Gun control laws have no bearing on this other than the ones in place for people with mental issues did not work. As usual ...
So yeah, lets have more laws that don't work. That'll fix things ...
Your "do nothing" approach is inspirational!

Dude...you talk in circles.
It's a mental health issue... gun laws for people with mental health issues don't work... it's not a gun issue.
The number of mass shootings went down when we had a weapons assault ban, and has skyrocketed since it expired.
Appreciating that mental health is the problem...and it's growing...and laws don't work...what do you suggest we do? Learn to live with it (if we're lucky that is)?
Sooner or later this discussion will come around to Constitutional rights. How can you support a candidate who has violated it, called for its termination, and this month told a judge it's not his job (as President) to support it?
FWIW - you're more likely to die in states where there are lax gun laws (MS, AL, etc.) than you are in Chicago.
should be a public service ad, like this is your brain, this is your brain on drugs. run the ads daily, maybe more folks will pressure their congressperson to act and permanently ban them.

Err. Tell me you don't know much about the Canadian health care system without telling me... talk to your Cdn friends about their experiences and lengthy wait times with our healthcare system. That our health care system is better than the US is a myth. Ask around.
As for guns, we, like you, currently have a govt bent on taking away legally owned guns from registered owners - all in spite of the fact that almost all gun crime comes from illegal guns smuggled in from the US - ie - unregistered and types not auth in Canada, and used by gangs and the the criminal element. Our situation has some similarities, but on the whole is different.
Thanks for the point. You regulate guns and have better outcomes, despite the ongoing problems with illegally procured weapons. That's pretty much what most rational American are asking for.
Don't ever do anything different, won't ever get anything different.
So known mental health issues, how did he have access to a gun? If we defend guns under all circumstances, this is what you get. Much like healthcare - most other countries, even yours, seem to do a much better job.

Gun instructor with known mental health issues.
It's not the gun, it's the person. Deal with the person & their situation.
Don't ever do anything different, won't ever get anything different.
