If that is the case, red flag laws may have prevented the shooter from buying guns.

You misspelled gun control.

ah yes gun control because criminals will willingly give up their guns

Clearly you don't understand gun control.

Clearly you don’t understand how many guns are in America. They’re impossible to control.

Thanks for proving my point.

The point is that there is no way to tell where almost all 400M guns are. There is no way to control them if you can’t find them.

And you keep on going…

We get it. You don’t understand what gun control means.

Ignorant people shouldn’t get a vote.

I understand what you think gun control is. You seem to think it can work. It’s unrealistic.

No, you clearly don’t.

What part of gun control calls for “finding” 400m guns?

Let’s not politicize this please.

People always say that and then nothing happens. How many of these do we have to see happen and listen to empty platitudes about thoughts and prayers while politicians continue to take money from gun manufacturers?

You can’t give it even an hour during an active shooting to begin screeching politics. This is scary, horrifying, and needs to be addressed, but right now, parents are worried their kids may be dead or soon dead

WHAT IS YOUR CONNECTION TO BROWN???

Pls go yell in Politics.

Uhhh sir a school shooting is basically one of the most expected things ever. Our elected officials refuse to pass any laws on this, and we keep reelecting them anyway.

Out of context.

It was the first mass shooting in Rhode Island. He was speaking in that context.

Stop lying

I was listening to the scanner. There were several active shootings; however, they were nowhere near the area. Providence has several high crime areas and it's Saturday night.

BTW, I previously lived in Providence.

Not on the college hill side where RISD and Brown are located. East Providence is nice. You can walk the street at 2am and it’s quiet. Lived on Benefit street. The mafia did not let crime cross the river. The junkies have their patch on the other side near the train station.

Even the police said it happened on the nicest, safest street in all of Providence

The Rhode Island governor said “The unthinkable has happened.”

The college forum of DCUM has national participation.

Its likely there are parents of Brown students reading this and scavenging for hope about their DC.

And he fled —mass shooters usually don’t do that.

We can’t confirm he’s male either

I'll be shocked if this shooter doesn't have a significant mental health history that's been kept hush hush due to confidentiality laws. Mentally ill students are allowed to matriculate in colleges and universities while innocent victims have no clue who's in their classes and dorms.

“Screeching politics” means highlighting things that make a certain kind of politics look bad.

Don’t bring up politics! (Nobody says this during terrorist attacks where the perpetrators are a different kind of politics)

People can bring up whatever they want and if you cared enough to have the courage to chime in you'd have the right to do so.

Right now I’m worried about my daughter who is sheltering in place.

I am worried about your daughter too, and I hope she is OK.

I am also worried about gun laws.

The two can happen at the same time, and it makes complete sense for one to more front of mind given your situation. That's how the world needs to work.

NP. There's a time a place to reflect on laws and how they impact us. This is not the time. You are a jerk.

Another NP. The time is now and the place is the Politics forum.

The time for discussion is absolutely now
