But have you considered that the government might go tyrannical at the exact moment these people are buying some Little Debbie's at the grocery store? How can they protect themselves then? And how about if a roving gang of 20 to 50 wild, feral hogs run into the Walmart while these people are shopping for some camouflage "Come and Bake It" pot holders? Who's going to protect the children then?!- Active shooter thread

Absolutely. If Satchel cannot define "assault rifle" to Vibes' satisfaction, then the obvious conclusion would be that no action should be taken at any level.- Active shooter thread

And that Mitsubishi was just as useful in this massacre as the other vehicle was, so it has that going for it, too- Active shooter thread
This press conference today is really something - Abbott boasting about all of these socialist benefits that are available to the survivors. 'Sorry the repub policies on guns killed your children, but look at all of these Democrat policy benefits that somehow fell through the cracks and are still available for y'all! You're welcome!'- Active shooter thread

According to CNN: "US Marshals said in a statement they were called to the school at 11:30 a.m. and arrived about 40 minutes later from Del Rio, about 70 miles away." So even if these Del Rio Marshals were able to head out of their station the very second they were called, they would have to have gone 105 miles an hour on average for the whole trip? Faster than that if you consider the time they took to get prepared and actually get into the cars. Would that even be a possibility on that stretch of road? I've never driven from Del Rio to Uvalde, but hell, I can't even drive the full speed limit on most 70-mile trips because of some wide-load mobile home or slow truck packed with too much furniture along the way. Is this just another LEO exaggeration of how they did everything right to deflect blame?- The Beto Effect - How To Lose Elections and Influence Nothing

Jeesh - Haven't the poor people of Uvalde suffered enough this week? Now they have to put up with Abbott being there all the time??- Active shooter thread
Do you vote republican like in Jacksonville, Florida - the "murder capital of Florida"? Since the 70's, the murder rate in Jacksonville has surpassed both that of Florida and that of the nation as a whole, and only a mere 80% of the murders in 2020 there were by firearm.- Active shooter thread
I'm in my 50's and I've never owned a gun either. I entirely support gun control - to an extent that would possibly make even some other gun control advocates uncomfortable. My voting history has me being so blue that you'd swear I ate the wrong gum at Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. My first post that you reacted to was not about predicting the behavior of the shooter, it was about the sheriff disingenuously saying that there were just no signs that anything was going to happen. There objectively were signs. You aren't an 18 year old, I assume. Actions that you do as an adult would be viewed different than the same actions done by a teenager. An 18 year old buying two semi-automatic rifles should raise concern, whether it's a legal activity or not, and I would even argue that the shop that sold them should have been on alert that something unusual happened and consider reporting even that. Just like someone buying all of the ingredients to make a bomb should raise concern, even if each element is legal to buy. But my post was about the sheriff. That sheriff wants to absolve himself of any responsibility, when in my opinion, he is very much entwined in it. He, or you, or anyone, could argue that it's the state that allows such gun purchases so there's nothing he can do, but if he is voting and continuing that cabal to be in power, then he is part of the problem. I can predict that he will continue to vote the same way, because he does have a history of it, and he should be called out for shirking his responsibility in this situation of uncontrolled gun violence. We can try to solve more than one problem at a time. If gun control could be passed tomorrow, great, but I also feel these repubs in office around the state need to start being held accountable for their actions.Football ... Basketball ... Baseball ...
