That is a fake quote, Hitler never said that and gun registration was already in place when the Nazis took power. He did ban Jews from owning guns or working in an industry that would give them access to gun, but the quote is bogus. He did use the existing gun laws to keep guns away from his opponents and did pass certain enhancements to the gun control laws already enacted.
I get it. The are hundreds of millions of guns in the hands of American citizens. Imagine the administrative nightmare for just the people who comply by surrendering.
Then oops!, those of use who lost our guns out on the lake, or the gun was stolden!
Yeah, I get it, do you?! I have no intention of becoming compliant!
“Do we even have mental health facilities anymore where the mentally ill can be placed?”
Interesting that you mention this.
Only about a mile and a half from the elementary school in Sandy Hook is the now-closed Connecticut State Psychiatric hospital.
Years ago, if someone was having mental problems, they’d get sent off “to Newtown”. I had an aunt that spent a little time there (she came out of it).
Just empty buildings now, fenced off...
Oh come one. He’s going to get an Oscar nomination for worst performance in a crying scene. It was so fake it was embarrassing.
We can thank Rosalynn Carter for the boarded up Mental Hospitals. She took up the cause of the mentally ill, deemed mental institutions to be inhumane and worked for a massive shift from institutional based care to community based care. We don’t have more mentally ill people today. It’s just that they are now free to run around loose in our neighborhoods.
Also, he wiped his eyes way too many times.
Also, when he finally was able to compose himself (sarc), he raised his head and there was no evidence of tears in his eyes.
I saw no compassion, no sadness, only ANGER. Satan has no soul, that's why Obama can't cry.
Like others have said.... fake tears from our fake president.
One more thing. The news media went hook, line, and sinker for the fake emotion and tears. What FOOLS.
Good follow up psychological counseling is an excellent idea. Both the surviving small children, the surviving adults who witnessed this and the grieving families whose children are gone, need HELP NOW.
There was a lady on with Meghan today on Fox News whose daughter was murdered at the Columbine school. She said it takes YEARS to ever recover, if you can, from losing your child this way. She struck me as a thoroughly kind and sympathetic woman, who would know how to help those parents who are facing this awful reality.
I hope she or someone like her with their understanding heart, can offer assistance to these grieving families.
All of my ‘guns’ were stolen right before I was born. I clearly remember being so excited planning for my first shooting lesson. Imagine my profound disappointment when I got here and found out my ‘guns’ didn’t. Doc didn’t even have to slap me. I was already crying.
You notice mass murders like gun free zones.
It disgusts me how the leftist media, Fox included, ate it up.
He has no compassion for the deaths of these children because he has taught himself not to. That's probably the only way he could live with himself given his very open support of every type of the wholesale slaughter of children.
Just think about that for a second. Video games on a TV with a game controller compared to the real life head of a loved one blown off. If you took a teenager out back and blasted the family dog with a shotgun, they'd be horrified, let alone a guy shooting his own mother in the face to start.
There is a real, tangible gut wrenching emotion that a normal person feels when exposed to real life trauma.The sound of the gun, the smell, the blood and brains and the look of a person's blank dead eyes that can't be imitated by some zombie video game, if the guy even played them, and there doesn't seem to be any evidence I've heard so far.
Only a socio/psychopath can do something like this; a person who would torture animals as a child and worse because he has no ability to empathize with anyone or anything. I think it'll probably come out that the guy tortured animals but was not able to be dealt with for a variety of reasons. I predict this tragedy will turn out to be a failure of the juvenile justice/mental health care system above anything that relates to gun control.
But, nonetheless, a socio/psychopath like this can't be cured anyway. We can only hope they eliminate themselves before doing something like this.
I have to agree. If someone thinks that after shooting his mother in the face it was video games that drove the shooter to then go to an elementary school and pull the trigger again and again, they should take a look at the images of the Beslan tragedy. No video game looks like that. (The faint of heart or queesy should not view the Beslan images and certainly no children.)
exactly.
Mom today has been told to put the kids in day care, and she is tired when she comes home.
Kids do not get raised as they should today, the left wanted the traditional destruction of the fmaily and this is what they are now reaping
That would be more than acceptable.
Realistically, we need to bring back the asylums we have been closing for years with the liberal shrinks telling us that the mentally ill that are running around the streets wouldn't harm a fly.
That's why the last several mass shootings have all been done by mentally ill people. Because the experts are correct in saying they wouldn't harm a fly. They just massacre humans.
Wasn’t trying to be a jerk...just don’t want the enemy to sense weakness. We need you in the fight, and every other conservative. Remember too that even some libtards have guns and don’t want to give them up. Obama is in for a huge fight here, and probably can’t win.
Agreed. Out of your reply, I glean that too many parents have abandoned their children to the (leftist) “education” system, either by misplaced trust or ignorance (that schools had become *far* different than when they were there- or indoctrinated, themselves) or selfishness & apathy.
I saw an excellent, excellent post on another forum yesterday. Basically, they said that children (with their impressionable minds) were bombarded by the schools with how horrible their race, religion, & culture is; that it is destructive & evil- & always has been. ( I would add completely messing with their minds regarding gender identity & destroying any sense of natural order/ roles, too)
Kids sense of identity & self esteem have been/ are being *completely destroyed” by the schools. This is probably intentional; to make them easier to “reconstruct” by the state, if that sort of stuff is to be believed.
They are bombarded with violence & perversion/ inversion outside of school & with their parents passivity (for whatever reason), they’re just screwed.
I am terrified by the lack of- not just adequate, but *any* response from the right, to what the “progressives” are doing. They ripped off the mask some time ago & aren’t holding anything back yet here we sit, wringing our hands & moaning, but *doing* nothing.
We should- each of us that physically can, be printing flyers & posters with *the facts* (e.g. how many abortions are *promoted* by the left; even to the point of leaving viable *infants* to die, yet this is an “outrage” that the people that *their* schools/ social premises have destroyed go crazy & kill, en masse) We should be *actively* publicizing their destructiveness & their manipulative hypocrisy.
And we should be physically gathering at our state houses & US representatives’ offices to insist that they do the right thing- in *every* case.
One tenth of the posters at places like FR would make a huge difference. By sitting on our behinds, typing our complaints on a keyboard- we are fiddling while the left burns America to the ground. There’s a lot more we could be doing. The communists *are* doing it. I hate saying it, but we are like those passive parents.
ps. Four of the most recent mass murderers have been disenfranchised White males in their early twenties. The young Korean (I think. Anyway, Asian) man, Mr Cho, who shot up Virginia Tech was also in that age range. Why? What happened to them that caused them to go crazy?
No. It wasn’t. You saw what you wanted to see.
