You're just playing dumb, MS. There's no way you don't see that the difference is in how many people can be killed in minutes or even seconds. Question: which side, liberals or MAGATs, made the most noise when a pickup truck was used to kill several protesters? MAGATs? No, MAGATs went to their kneejerk response, clutching their precious semiautos, along with their pearls, and started defending the crazy MF that did it! Within minutes of yet another mass shooting, MAGATs are all over the media, defending gun rights, scared, SCARED, I tell you, that someone will take away their horde of seldom used and always useless firearms! For 250 years y'all have been afraid that will happen. Know what? It WILL happen. Since you pro-gun people will literally do NOTHING to control the violence, you're leaving it wide open to the gun haters, who WILL control the violence, and in ways YOU don't like. Keep doing nothing. It'll bite you on the butts.

It's only insulting because it's true. Odd comment, though, coming from a 47 supporter--- he thinks insults are a way of communication...

“…As if insults are how to get one's point across …”

 The Banning Of Guns,
taking away Freedom.

Has been completely explained to the Socialist, FDS, FDI, WOKE.
Over and Over and Over and Over and Over and Over

   Yet they refuse,
despite the absolute proof,
Less Guns = MORE CRIME

Just speculating but in a room full of a couple hundred children, 2 killed, 19 injured but I’ve not heard if those 19 were shot or hurt during the escape. I think it’s possible that when the killer saw what he had done, he shot himself instead of firing more. If you watched his video, he said he was carrying a revolver for himself just in case. The columbine killers could have killed more but sat down and killed themselves. Would armed teachers had mattered? Hard to say. The only thing to say for sure is it wouldn’t have hurt.

In the Texas school shooting, the police didn’t even charge in when they heard shooting still going on. No one knows what they’ll do in a situation like that. Training helps, but it’s still an unknown. But again, if I’m in that spot, I’d rather have a gun than not and I’d rather a few teachers in my granddaughter’s school takes training and have access, rather than not.

But that’s not the solution, that’s a response to an event.

Would any gun law have stopped this? I read he purchased guns legally. Would a red flag law have worked? Not sure if he was reported as a concern. It didn’t stop the Columbine killers as they had a friend buy them.

Clearly the recent rash of kids with gender confusion is something to look at. But remember School shootings are extremely rare even though they get the vast majority of the attention. There were 294 murders in the St. Louis metropolitan area in 2024. 90% were black on black and almost certainly 90% or more or gang and drug related. I’ve read 50% of the murders in the US occur and only 2% of the counties.

You leftist can scream and cry about gun crime all you want and the need for more gun laws but the reality is everybody knows where most of the murders are taking place. And now the mayor of Chicago, “Murder-City during a three day weekend, is fighting his hardest to keep Trump from doing in Chicago what he did in DC. If he’s successful, doesn’t that absolutely guarantee a few dozen murders will occur that otherwise wouldn’t?

A, 'solution', would be, NOT, declaring a area a GUN FORBIDDEN area.
Which the DFI Crazy's see as:

 (I Can Have, Carry, Shoot ANY kind of gun, at ANY Time, cause NO ONE CAN HAVE ONE and STOP ME)

If the people In the church could have returned fire,how long do you think that would have lasted.
Ohh,but it was a Gun Free zone,

 I'm not sure places that don't actively arm staff are "gun free" specifically.  For instance I don't actively train and arm my shop staff, but they can be armed if they choose to do so.  The shop often times is "gun free" but not by policy.

 Presumably Catholic churches will be absent of firearms but I am not aware of policy that restricts them at Annunciation.  Could be though.

MANY, places, institutions, business, etc, etc, etc,
SPECIFICALLY SAY "NO GUNS"
And they actually believe
it will stop the crazy, DFI, sociopaths
from using a gun.

(Which has NOTHING to do with whether a place/business/etc, "... don't actively arm staff ..."')

In Minnesota, state law firmly prohibits teachers and other school staff—whether public or private—from carrying or possessing concealed firearms on school property, even with a valid Permit to Carry. Here’s how the restrictions break down under current law.

Minn. Stat. § 609.66, subd. 1d – Dangerous Weapons on School Property
It is a felony for anyone to knowingly possess, store, or keep a dangerous weapon (including a firearm) on school property. This applies to both public and private elementary, middle, or secondary schools, as well as their grounds, buildings, school buses, and areas under temporary exclusive school control.

Even with a valid Permit to Carry, possession on school property remains a misdemeanor (if you are a permit holder) or a felony (if you are not).

Even though people are allowed to carry permitted concealed handguns on church property, even if a church building is owned separately from a school, if it is used by the school—say, for classes or assemblies—during school hours and is under the control of the school, it legally becomes school property for that duration. That means the usual school carry prohibitions apply.

It's DaLaw that You gotsta be Vulnerable. And vulnerable they wuz. Sounds like a Really Good Idea..
