ALIEN_WORK2HOP 02/15/18 6:37:54 AM #2:	stop being so short sighted. Even if there is no short term solution, tighter regulations or whatever will eventually cause the amount of guns in circulation drop.They can break, you can find a variety of ways to make demand for guns decrease. Even if it takes decades...eventually you might solve the problem. Changing Americas crazy ass gun culture can't happen from one day to the next. But every generation of children that doesn't grow up believing that guns are toys that can be bought at Walmart, will be a generation of kids that won't be as interested in having a gun. Which will in turn lead to less guns in circulation...it will just take time. --- * * * * - Die Nummer 1 der Welt sind wir.

Wolf_J_Flywheel 02/15/18 6:40:40 AM #3:	The problem is schools are soft targets. We protect crap like our money, prisoners, and politicians with guns and protect our children with gun free zones. People who want guns banned (knowing this will never happen or be practical) are ok with mass casualties every few months so they can jump up and yell ban guns some more. Because they dont want to support a measure that would actually work. --- Those who act like sheep, will be eaten by wolves http://i.imgur.com/n1L1yBu.jpg <cite>Wolf_J_Flywheel posted [p:896122521] in The shitti...
