Did you see my earlier post? There are 50+ million more guns than people in the US, and we have no idea where they are.
Yes, I do find it another problem - though, the mass shooters I'm reading about are ones who go to a store, buy guns and go use them.Yes, sadly it has become part and parcel of life in the US. I do not have a concealed carry license, it would be easy enough to get one. I don't let it scare me, but I do combine my trips. I have a list, I'm in and out. Seldom do I linger.
My uncle has his concealed carry permit, he's a deacon in the Anglican church and he's their designated security. People have to stop burying their heads in the sand and get proactive. Find someone in each organization who is willing to become the 'person' during an active shooter situation, and fight back!! !
Rather than run away.
There are no guarantees that the designated person would fight back, however.
In a recent mass shooting, the security guy "hopped it".

my state has some of the strictest gun laws in the US...and some of the lowest gun violence numbers as well. I guess we don't have as many mentally ill people here.
Any figures on other mass violence other than by guns, in your area?
But as I keep on saying, while wearing my "tin foil cap", there are no black ops trying to ban knives, machetes or vehicles.

You know, with such visions in mind, I'm really glad I live somewhere where mass shootings just don't happen.It's too late for us, we have no choice. If the government all of a sudden decided to go from home to home confiscating guns there would be a civil war, with half the population wiped out. Leftists on this site are quick to say, "No they wouldn't, they'd give up." But they do not live in States that believe the way some of these people believe. Look up Ruby Ridge and you will see what I mean. That, and Waco are very real potentials here.
What an appropriate name for that tragedy.

Bad move, dude.
This site has a left-wing bias.
I suggest: "Antifa_Guy".
I think its been well established that the majority of WP members are either non-political or centrist to moderate conservatives.

Even if you are accurate, and there are common-sense reasons to suggest you aren't, it doesn't change the fact that this website is more left-wing friendly.

I think the forum Mods (with one or two past exceptions) generally follow standard policies on free speech, Right wingers and conservatives get equal air time.
Do the mods get it wrong sometimes...yeah sure...is it based on political bias? maybe or just some topics trigger so they reign in the chat.

What's "rapid firing"?
And what's "slower"?
Please explain.
It's like playing chess with a pigeon - all it does is strut about, knocks over the pieces and craps on the board.

So you want us to demand some sort of political allegiance test before members are allowed to post to make it more "friendly" for you?The membership is what it is, and simply reflects the broad political leanings of it.

It's also been well established that the Left leaning members of this site have little else to do and submit the largest number of posts. *please look to the left, under each member's name and you will see that I speak the truth.

How does that information correlate with a person's political leanings?

In short, we have to work, therefore we need sleep. I am aware that some of you claim to hold down jobs, but if I were your employers I would wonder how you have the time to post constantly and give an honest days work.

Besides, I am a salaried and degreed professional, so I do not get paid overtime. So having slack time for social websites is considered a perk of the job.
(I would rather have the overtime pay, but being required to spend only 27 hours per week actually in the office is an even greater perk that I am unwilling to give up.)
I am not apologizing for any of this, nor am I apologizing for being in favor of stricter gun-control laws.

I don't recall asking for an apology and while I congratulate you on your accomplishments, your excess of free time explains a lot about your contempt on this site. STENDEC indeed...

How about letting this thread back on-topic while you look up the word STENDEC?
