    Go on record? Lol. Stricter background checks. I don’t give a fuck about an AR being available to people. That can be taken away for all i care. That’s my stance on the gun issue. What I’m saying is there is a mental health issue and that’s the bigger problem here. Doesn’t take a genius to see all the homeless people around talking to themselves to figure that out. Also undiagnosed people. Antidepressants can also cause mental health issues.

    "Access" is a useless and meaningless term in a free society.

    Anyone can steal a gun, no matter how many laws you make.

    Anyone can buy a gun, no matter how many laws you make.

    There is no possibility that you can remove a majority of current guns from America, no matter how many laws you make.

    Literally all mass murderers are mentally ill, and we can at least agree none of them are concerned about obeying the law.

    Gun control is 100% about disarming those Real Americans who would stand up to prevent a coup of our country. Nothing else.

    Unlike your posts though, mine are easily proven.

    Check out Costa Rica's gun laws and the Nobel Peace prize they won in the 80s....I lived 20 years in Taiwan and it's one of the safest countries on earth...you think you know about that? You probably don't....demonstrable success...your freedoms didn't save 17 high school kids tonight..

    Well, a Gun free zone is an inviting place for an amateur hell bent on mayhem to enter with the intent of injuring as many as possible.
    I wonder how many times it will happen before we put some armed people in these places to make it much less inviting to the amateur, hell bent on evil?

    Guns have been around before America. Hard to blame guns for the sudden rise. Must be something else.

    Costa rica is a retirement community for smart middle class white people who speak spanish. Hardly a breeding ground for young troubled teens.

    We both know you don't actually believe what you posted above. We know it because you own guns and have not turned them in. I get the impression you love your wife and family so you wouldn't keep your guns if you truly believed you'd all be safer without them.

    Seriously, put up or shut up. Take your guns down to the Sherriff's office and turn them in.

    Again, the opposite is true. Countries with strict gun confiscation laws have far worse or at least comparable violent crime using other weapons.

    They also have far less freedoms, most being actual police states, dictatorships or governed by drug lords.

    Your oft-quoted Taiwan has pretty much outlawed guns, but so have our prisons.

    Both still have many murders, using the crudest of weapons.

    Neither has free citizens, which is why you and your wife live in America and not Taiwan.

    Violent crime in America has been steadily declining for over 50 years now. That's a fact, an indisputable fact.

    I've never said my guns will stop bad people from killing people. Mental healthcare would prevent murders in many cases, which is why the neither the Dems or the Reps EVER SUPPORT EXPANDING IT.

    My guns insure our Freedom from tyranny. That is the singular purpose for The Second Amendment, and it has worked like a charm since it's inception.

    Considering we're a country with 320,000,000+ people of all the world's ethnicities coupled with unparalleled freedom for all it's citizens, America is quite impressively non-violent.

    Untrue, by law. Anyone diagnosed as violently mentally ill is prohibited from buying a firearm.

    No law will prevent either from getting a gun, as that is not possible.

    Gun laws are all smoke and mirrors, meant only to disarm society to enslave them.

    Amazing that someone as outraged about slavery would want to be such a willing participant in bringing it about.

    Still fresh in memory. He severely injured over a dozen other people. Knives and swords are the preferred method of mass murders by Asians and a google search will show you dozens of them, some with many more deaths if that is what floats your boat. 2 Taiwanese also murdered 57 people by crashing an airliner back in the 50's.

    There are mental issues worldwide. Or does America have something in the water?

    Actually mass shootings and murders have been in America ever since its inception. Firearms are definitely a preferred tool for that method of violence.

    Taiwan ain't the best example there Riv. They're essentially ruled by an invader.

    This is very very shallow...racist and stupid...all of it..get over yourself and your false sense of nationalistic bravado...do the world a favor...why I live in Oregon is non of your concern, nor my wife's choices are any of your concern....we have homes in both countries and families in both...we have a unique perspective on both places...you, I don't believe have a clue....

    Marshall law ended in Taiwan in the early 80s....modern Taiwan is not a KMT dictatorship run by Chiang Kai Shek....his son introduced democratic change..very peaceful country

    hold gun owners responsible for all crimes committed. Lock your shit up.
    Saying “there’s no point making a law bad guys will get guns anyway” is a weak and lazy excuse. Should we just remove stop signs? Cuz if you want to blow a stop sign you can. I mean who cares? Speed limits too. Bad guys will just drive any speed they want. Rape should be legal. I mean if someone wants to rape they are gonna rape.
    There is NO reason for AR15 or whatever the fuck they call them.
    And i swear to god hearing “thoughts and prayers” makes me furious.
    Oh and “gee we thought he was odd and loved guns and we kinda saw this coming “ - you should all be locked up you worthless pieces of shit.
