We have their thoughts and prayers. Doesn't that stop bullets or do they just call fake news when children actually die?

Per the perusal of Foxnews comments every time something like this happens, it's:

-That we don't have enough armed guards at schools ("lots of retired veterans would be happy to guard schools!") ignoring that we have mass shootings with armed guards anyways, and at other locations besides schools including concerts, malls, movie theaters, workplaces, churches, and on and on
-That we don't arm teachers (most teachers don't want to be armed, I know many of them and they have enough to worry about let alone carrying a loaded gun that kids could easily get ahold of)
-That it's our lack of family values as a country/society in the USA that is to blame (specifically democratic erosion of traditional family values)... basically a "shrug, can't do nothing about that till we have better morals!" response that is useless
-We have enough gun laws, more won't do anything

blah blah blah. Conservatives have absolutely nothing helpful to say and it keeps happening and rinse and repeat.

Tbh I just pray it happens at schools filled with the kids of Republican elites. Then only way they change their tune is when it happens to them. They don’t give a f#ck about anyone else.

That said, I wish for a world with strong gun control and an absence of school shootings.

Wow. Just wow.

Yes, I am also shocked at how ghoulish the Republican elites conduct themselves. Democrats have been begging for 20 years for sensible gun reforms and the Republicans just grow more extreme, egged on by our lunatic Supreme Court.

If we are going to have a country with mass shootings, I’m going to pray that it mostly affects those who enable it to happen and block good-faith reforms. Reap what you sow, and all that.

Multiple posters on this thread have literally said they hope the dead children have Republican parents, and you're calling Republicans "ghoulish?" I've never seen/heard Republicans hoping for dead children.

Idiot. Blame the shooter, please.

I blame the shooter and the easy access to weapons.

I blame the shooter and the easy access to weapons, especially assault-style rifles which make it even easier to shoot more people efficiently.

Just stop.

Such a hateful statement.
Thankfully, the shooter is dead. Pray for the children and the families.

OP here. I am a mother of two elementary school students and I am fed up with "thoughts and prayers" and no action every time I see another school shooting.

So unless you have something more productive to offer than "pray" (FYI, I'm an atheist, so no, I won't), you stop please. Stop and offer potential solutions that aren't prayers and more doors.

Yet you are here blaming anyone else but the shooter. And guess what, there are plenty of us who are religious and get comfort from our religion. So get off your judgemental high horse and suck it.

Get all the comfort needed, but ALSO provide solutions. If your solution is religious prayers ONLY and nothing else, then yes I will blame you as part of the problem.

This. I am so fed up with thoughts and prayers. I am so fed up with th hypocrisy of our politicians. Look at how quickly they came together to try to ban a freaking app in the name of keeping our children safe. What are these scumbags going to do now with this news? They'll do nothing. They'll do nothing because they actually don't give a hoot about keeping children safe. They are liars and we should all be pissed.

1. Multiple?
2. I have read way worse on FoxNews, so please don't think these anecdotes on either side make any one better.

What are your proposed solutions to prevent mass shootings, not just at schools but grocery stores, churches, concerts, and more, as even armed guards have failed??

They do every election...but clearly you are too blind to see that.

No, that’s not what was said.

What I said is that the only way that gun reform will happen in the US is if Republican elites face the consequences of their extremism. And that means their own family bearing the brunt of the gun violence that is sweeping this country unchecked.

I’m not wrong. Republican elites only pivot when it’s their own families that are effected.

That is evident from your first sentence.

You seem to be implying that is a negative thing.

Dude. Someone literally shot up a baseball field of Republican Congress critters. It didn’t make a difference.

OP here. Yep, it was clear that was the implication. Atheists can't be loving mothers, right? Also, mothers who are loving and virtuous shouldn't feel emotions of rage and anger when elementary school children are shot, right?. Pretty sure they believe I've got devil horns hidden under the hair on my head.

Probably someone with personal beef against the school, likely a former student. We can play the guessing game all day but there’s a lot of anomalies with this one.

The world is becoming unhinged and tearing at the seams.

I was also surprised to learn it was a female shooter. Very unusual.

This particular shooter is dead. Blaming her accomplishes nothing toward preventing the next tragedy. So that leaves...

I am religious and I also would prefer to see action not cheap words.

The escalating gun violence needs to be addressed in realistic and pragmatic gun controls.

It is horrifying that our children and youth fear for their lives while Simply going to school.

Don't correct them, they were enjoying their moment of superiority think they "got" you for proving that all democrats are hateful. If you point out the flaw in their argument, they might actually have to come up with something useful to say about gun violence.
