    It's happened on military bases before....an officer flipped out in Texas and shot up the joint. When these things happen it is rarely predictable...you assume people on guard duty see everything....I stood a lot of guard duty and will be the first to tell you, not everything gets noticed

    Yeah, It could certainly happen. This just seems like a good balance of a reasonable amount of precautions without making it seem scary. It's been very well done.

    I'm not overly worried about a person capable of physically overpowering a teacher and planning a way to attack the school that way. If they have that amount of mental capability and motivation it's going to be next to impossible to stop them from causing some damage. A person that motivated would have no trouble coming up with a deadly weapon regardless of gun laws.

    We're going to have to deal with guys like the DC sniper and the Vegas Millionaire committing horrible acts every now and then.
    It's unfortunate, but until we make greater social advances it's an unfortunate reality.

    I'll point out that I said that very early on this discussion. But that's fine.

    So now you have to get a 2/3 vote in both The House and The Senate, then you have to convince 38 states to support it.

    21 states currently require no permits for concealed or open carry. Up from 15 last year.

    When do you expect this constitutional convention to happen?

    Who said anything about less doors? Why is it that people with this stance have to resort to such tactics?

    Seriously. I'm attempting to have a legitimate conversation here...

    Who suggested more, bigger, deadlier guns? Who suggested we just keep doing what we're doing?

    19 little defenseless children murdered with guns recently in Texas. Meanwhile 19 good guys with guns failed to prevent the carnage.

    Yep, any police officer who thinks those police were right need to turn in their badge.

    That school needed better security.

    We need universal Healthcare, education, and an improved social safety net like other first world countries have.

    There are no constitutional blocks to any of those steps, and there has actually been movement in that direction over recent years.

    The party that overwhelmingly loves guns is the party stopping that from happening.

    Because people in power who think like you won't allow it to happen. You are sounding highly disingenuous here.

    Phatguysrule is a very good guy, he just has a differing view on the value of guns and what the Constitution really says about well regulated militias vs the average couch potato Joe.
    I proclaim a well regulated militia only applies to the National Guard.

    This is fucking ridiculous.

    Was the kid dumb to say that? Yes.

    Maybe bring him into the station to scare him? Sure.

    But to release his name, perp walk, release his mugshot?!? Fuck that. He's 10 years old.

    Florida cops release MUGSHOT of ten-year-old boy they cuffed and perp walked after he jokingly text a friend that he had bought four assault rifles
    • Daniel Issac Marquez was charged with making a written threat to conduct a mass shooting after sending text
    • The 10-year-old sent a text claiming that he had purchased four assault rifles and said 'get ready for water day'
    • Police believe he was threatening to attack his school and publicly arrested him
    • Sheriff Carmine Marceno defended the arrest by saying 'a child pulling a trigger equals the same aftermath'
    • The sheriff alleged that authorities must consider all threats as credible
    • He also warned that anyone who shoots at Florida's schools will be 'killed immediately'
    • The fake threat was the second time in a week the community was rocked by threat of violence against school
    • A woman on Thursday said she would go to high school graduation in the area with a bomb strapped to chest
    • They both come after 19 children and two teachers were shot to death by a sick 18-year-old gunman in Texas

    And if Dems weren't doing the same they'd have a leg to stand on with that argument.
