[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve distanced myself from my gun loving family.  I’m polite.  I’ll attend family gatherings.  But I’ve lost all respect for them.  As far as I’m concerned, if you voted Republican, you killed those babies.  [/quote]

Stop blaming republicans.  They didn't kill those kids.  This was a very troubled young man who didn't get the help he needed from his parents/family, school and community.  Lets start there.[/quote]

Everyplace has troubled young men.  Every place does not have republican policies allowing them to buy assault rifles.[/quote]

You know why, because other countries deal with their troubled young men. We're too busy, selfish, and policitcally correct to do the right thing when we see mentally ill young men. [/quote]

no, dealing  with mentially ill people is a problem eveyrwhere, go to Europe and you will see mentally ill people in the street in any country. the difference is that in this country  this guy went to a store and bought an AR15 and hundreds of ammunitions. if he was in Italy, Germany, Japan, he would not have been able to do it. in most countries you need to obtain a permit before you can buy a weapon and rifles of the type this guy used cannot be owned by civilias, just by police and the army. even gun enthusiasts in civiized countries think Americans are nuts. the type of weapon makes the difference. a lot of these massacres were done literally in 3-4 minutes. the reality is that we re all in dangers, we go to the store, to the movie, to work, in the metro, kids to school and so on and if a crazy decides that day to go up in flame bringing others with him we are done.

there is a massacre a week now and not stopping. glad i am from somewhere else and trying to move my family there and leave this idiotic place. my niece and nephew in my home country have never seen a metal detector and never hear of a shooter drill in school. my older parents dont sleep with loaded rifles next to their bed. it may be hard for many if you to understand but how some people live here is nuts[/quote]

Thank you! I'm European and we have crazy people and almost no gun violence. [/quote]
