posted by queencitybuckeyeAs an aside, 375 rounds is not a lot of ammo. When I restock, my typical order is 2500-4000 rounds. Not remotely any kind of red flag.
Not a lot for you, that's fine. And I dont have a problem with you owning guns or all the ammo you want. The point is it seems like a lot to the brand new gun owner with numerous issues.
You’ve got me very wrong.
How do we stop an 18 year old Wendy’s employee from getting an AR and blasting a school? Surely something can be done right?
You’re in the “nothing can be done!” crew? How fucking sad.

Issues for sure, but no criminal record. Imagine the howls there would be if having a rough childhood disqualified someone from doing anything other than buying a gun. The left would go fucking nuts.
posted by gutSo highschool dropouts are irresponsible gun owners? Very elitist. I wonder how you would feel if someone said a high school dropout shouldn't be allowed to vote?
Look, you and a few others get all fired up by mass shootings and cop killings. Combined, those number in the low 100's. The only reason it's so important to you is that's what the talking idiots on CNN and MSNBC bukkake you with. Meanwhile, you either are unaware or don't care of the TENS OF THOUSANDS of African Americans dying each year due to medical bias, because that's not the agenda. God forbid Nancy Pelosi have to fight her way through a mob to get medical care.
Elementary students getting executed is only important to me because of CNN and MSNBC? I haven’t had cable in a decade. GFY.

No, I'm wondering why you assume an "18-yr old Wendy's employee" buying a gun should be automatically suspicious. It's a blatantly unconstitutional assumption, by the way.
Your arguments are fucking sad. When things cool off, perhaps you'll look back and see how bereft of logic and clear thinking you're being.

I'm wondering why that's more important to you then kids dying from the flu when we have vaccines. Certainly seems like someone else is doing your thinking for you.
Just say, “we can and will do nothing” and be done with it.
I still don't know what the flu has to do with any of this. Did the flu suddenly kill 19 healthy kids the other day? How many stupid fucking comparisons can we make tonight.
No one does, but it’s a good way to say “I got nothing.”
Sackless.
posted by iclfan2Yes, the cops were fucking useless. They (19 of them) stood outside of the classroom for 45 minutes, knowing there were kids still alive. Fire them all.
Fuck that! Hang the fucking cowards!
More people are killed every year by glass coffee tables than by ARs. Anyone who wants to ban ARs can GFY.
Harden the schools.
We protect our money with guns. We protect our politicians with guns.
We protect our kids with signs. It's fucking ridiculous at this point.
Gun dork checking in^
Link? And…
You’re ok with an 18 year old HS drop out, wackadoo, Wendy’s employee purchasing an AR-15 with ease?
It’s not a difficult question.
How did the killer get to the kids? In the building? How’d he get in?

Walked right through an unlocked door apparently. Feels like everything failed in this instance. Bad guy got a gun, the fortification of the school didnt work because the damn doors weren't even locked, and the police response was useless.

I am more concerned with what this individual might do to my single with cheese.

Apparently not enough. Also point sailing over your head. My god, how fucking stupid and ignorant can you willfully be?!?
The flu kills more kids than mass shooters. Is it stupid to ask why you only lose your shit over guns killing kids, but not over other things that kill even more kids? If A>B, why is it a "stupid fucking comparison" to ask why you don't care about A?

Come up with a viable solution or, as you say it, "GFY".
Facts, realities and common sense be damned.

Am I losing my shit? OP asked for ideas on the problem, I presented one that might have helped with this particular shooting while not interfering with anyone who otherwise legally owns all the guns and ammunition they want. You meanwhile posted 20+ times on the thread in one evening, initially started us off by complaining about Beto the other day, and had some absolutely ridiculously random post about CNN/bukkake/Nancy Pelosi.
Idk what you want to hear about the flu. A may be greater than B, but A has been researched for decades and deaths are very rare. B is problem we don't have an answer for or any way to prevent really, hence the discussion at hand. Did I miss where 19 healthy kids suddenly dropped dead from the flu the other day and no one has any answers or solutions how to inevitably stop it from happening again? I need to go to the store later, should I tell my family I love them before I go in case I get the flu and die while there?

What’s your suggestion/solution?
Again…

It’s a yes or no question.
