A bad man attempted to shoplift at a Nashville liquor store Thursday night. A good guy with a gun, armed security guard Robert Meek, followed him out of the store. The initially-unarmed bad man took the good guy’s gun off him and killed him with it.

You should start taking guns from convicted felons to show everyone how confiscation works.

If you achieve that then people might listen on other gun controls.

The big problem all the hoplophobes ignore is the 2A.

Now now, A, the only person to stop a good guy with a gun is a bad guy who just takes it off  the good guy to kill him with it, we've told you all this.

Guns don't kill people, bad guys use good guys' guns to kill people, okay?

Honestly, it's so simple, I don't know why we have to keep reminding you.

Uh... "sleepy Joe"?  Why?  Better than Captain Bone-spurs I guess LOL.

Anyway, I'm guessing you don't know much about the mechanics of the
US Constitution.  The president cannot issue an Executive Order (EO) to
change the Constitution.  That needs the approval of Congress.  And with
the Republicans—supported by the NRA—blocking any attempts to alter
the 2nd Amendment, the US is stuck with their Founding Fathers' absurd,
outdated gun laws written 250 years ago when single shot muskets were
the order of the day.

By not understanding the relatively limited powers of the POTUS, you malign
him without evidence.

Foolish: Californians Just Increased The Chances That The Next School Shooting Will Happen In Their State

By Seth Cutler | Saturday, 04 June 2022 02:15

On the heels of the Uvalde school shooting, California has passed a bill removing requirements for schools to report threats against school officials to law enforcement. On Thursday, the bill, SB-1273 was passed by the California State Senate just days following the tragedy in Uvalde.

Lawmakers claim the bill is an attempt at racial equity, declaring that minority students are disproportionately reported to law enforcement for violent or disruptive behavior. Rather than mandatory reporting of violent behavioral matters to authorities, school officials will now have the option to deal with them internally. Like most woke policies, the consequences of SB-1273 are dangerous.

Breitbart reported that one outspoken State Senator, Melissa Melendez (R, Riverside County), took to the Senate floor to voice her deep worries regarding SB-1273 as a parent, “This is a bill that no longer requires schools to notify law enforcement if a student attacks or assaults someone on campus or makes a threat on campus.”

Melendez continued to caution lawmakers that internal resolution of behavioral matters had deadly consequences in the case of the Stoneman Douglas school shooting in Florida.

“I will remind you,” she announced, “[of the] 2018 Stoneman Douglas shooting at the school in which 17 people were killed by a fellow student, Nikolas Cruz. Nikolas Cruz had behavioral issues since middle school and according to the Washington Post, he was entrenched in the process for getting students help rather than referring them to law enforcement…The school decided they would use alternative means to deal with Nikolas Cruz’s behavioral issues. The end result was that he killed 17 people.”

Hitting on the growth of violence in California schools, Melendez said, “We have seen an increase in violence at our schools, and in too many cases, there are instances where a school and parents or caregivers try to intervene… and it doesn’t work. The end result is that other people’s children die because of it.” Confirming the increase in school violence, California students recently took to social media to share their experiences of campus gun violence.

In a chilling closing remark, Melendez spoke directly to fellow parents, “This bill today, you are asking for a repeat of Stoneman Douglas across the state of California, and I will not sit back and say nothing because I have kids in school. If you have kids in school, you better darn well pay attention to this.”

Look, A, this is getting rather tedious, you know. Much better if you did the Christian thing and turned the other cheek, okay?

Guns aren't killing anyone, they're protecting people. Besides, we all know those gun deaths would be long, drawn out stabbings or chokings or whatever if the murderers didn't have access to AK47s, it's what you do.

Harping on about guns is so tasteless and unAmerican. It would be best if you offered your thoughts and prayers and moved on, yes?

You are right - these daily shootings have become tedious as ʞɔnɟ. The mass murderers are going to have to step up their game and think of all this as a Vaudeville act and add some variety to the killing. Why not live streaming of the victims pleading for their lives, then a blast of gunfire, and end the tableau with bloody carnage?

I do hope you're not suggesting we ban guns. That would be ridiculous. It's your constitutional right, no?

We gave ours up, and now look at us. We now have no right to kill them. The tinted races can do whatever they want in our silly old country.

Deplorable.

Don't you see? You people can kill as many of them as you want. Do you really want to end up like poor old us?

Guns are designed for a single purpose, and that's
killing another living entity, which in the US is all
too often another human being—in fact more than
19,300 Americans this year, including 733 children.

It really doesn't matter how many of these anti-gun protests there are
in America, or how vociferous the crowds are, or the worldwide media
coverage they get.

The major—almost sole—stumbling block is the Republicans who back
the NRA in Congress, bolstered by the outdated 2nd Amendment.  In
2020, the most recent congressional election, among citizens who voted
for a Republican House member, only 24% of those voters wanted
increased gun control.

A majority in the Senate of 50 Democrats plus, say, a handful of
Republicans could pass some form of gun control. But it wouldn’t pass
the Senate because the filibuster—which allows a small group of
senators to hold up a final vote on a bill unless a three-fifths majority
of senators vote to stop them.

The last time any gun control laws passed in Congress was the 1994
assault weapons ban—which notoriously failed to make any practical
difference.  The scientific consensus among criminologists and other
researchers was that the 10-year ban had little to no effect on overall
criminal activity, firearm deaths, or the lethality of gun crimes.

At least 5 dead, 27 injured as wave of weekend mass shootings in US continues

"At least seven mass shootings have occurred across the country since Friday night, making this the fourth consecutive weekend in which U.S. law enforcement officers have responded to multiple incidents involving four or more victims shot."

Sounds like America needs more guns.

President Joe Biden welcomes breakthrough in gun reform deal reached by bipartisan group of US senators 8-)

Title: Re: Current Shooting Report
Post by AusGeoff on Jun 14th, 2022 at 10:30pm

Quote:
•  Support for state-based "red flag" laws that keep guns from potentially dangerous people
•  Tougher criminal background checks for firearms buyers under 21 years of age
•  A crackdown on "straw purchases" by people buying firearms for others who would not pass a background check.


If any of this legislation is passed, I doubt it'll make any appreciable difference
to the rate of firearm homicides, suicides or mass shootings in the United States.
And where are the new laws banning assault style weapons, or the banning of
personal ownership of hand guns?

It's all just a sop by Biden in an attempt to keep voters who strenuously
defend the 2nd on the Democrats' side—possibly until 2024?

And any state-based firearms laws have notoriously failed in the recent past; 
why should they work now?

Modest gun control is compatible with the second.

Funny with the right and the constitution when they were happy for Trump and the supreme court to completely vandalise it.

Remember that the supreme court ruled in Roe V Wade that all rights are based on existing rights in 1783. There was no right to own an AK-15 in 1783.

Homeowner Fatally Shoots Teens


Source:      USACarry      
Quote:
Two teenagers paid the ultimate price after breaking into at least one other house and then picking the wrong one.

This past Sunday, a woman and her daughter returned to her Colorado home to discover someone had broken in. She immediately called the police, who told her it would be a while before they could respond because they were dealing with a bigger issue in the area. Little did she know, the suspects in the other incident were the same suspects that broke into her home.

Police reported that two teenagers, one was sixteen years old and the other’s age has not been disclosed, broke into an unoccupied home and then accessed a neighbor’s backyard. The teenagers were armed, one with a handgun and the other with a machete. The armed homeowner confronted the two suspects, one of which shot at the homeowner. The homeowner returned fire hitting both suspects.

The wounded teenagers were transported to the hospital, where they both died. The homeowner will not be prosecuted as Colorado’s Make My Day Law protects him.

One of the teenager’s mothers spoke to the media, saying, “It’s senseless. He didn’t have to lose his life over this. He could have gave him a warning. They were kids.”

I feel sorry for the fact that this mother lost a child, but that “child” was armed and breaking into houses. And it was reported that the teens fired first, so what warning was this homeowner supposed to give after being shot at? Simply put, crime doesn’t pay. If you don’t want to get shot breaking into houses, don’t break into houses.


I absolutely agree...............crime doesn’t pay. If you don’t want to get shot breaking into houses, don’t break into houses!

Those two scumbags won't be doing that again......A lesson well learned!

Burglar Shot During Home Invasion



Source:      ABC-WBRZ      
Quote:
A burglar who was shot after she accidentally woke up an armed homeowner while breaking into a house was released from the hospital and booked into jail Sunday.

The Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office said residents woke up around 2 a.m. after hearing a "popping" sound under the carport at their home on Friendship Road. The department said one of the homeowners then grabbed a gun and shot the female intruder, who was also armed.

The burglar, identified as 23-year-old Paige Clark, was shot twice in the leg and hip. She was taken to a hospital and is expected to survive.

Sunday, the sheriff's office said Clark was able to leave the hospital and was booked into the Livingston Parish Detention Center. She faces charges of aggravated burglary, burglary from a vehicle, theft of a motor vehicle and illegal use of weapons.


All things going well, the perp ....Paige Clark.... might get 15-20 years in prison for her stupidity.
