Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) said there was not “a single piece of legislation” that would have prevented the recent school shooting in Texas.

Warner said, “I don’t think there’s a single piece of legislation, but there’s a series of actions. Are there things we can do that would improve the safety of our schools? Absolutely.”

He continued, “Should there be more mental health counseling for troubled teens, the number of the incidents caused by young men time and time again? Absolutely. Making sure people are safer with their own firearms? Absolutely.

Since “no single piece of legislation would have stopped the shooting,” I’m sure he wants MANY pieces of legislation.

In the past 30 years, there has been one single piece of legislation that has caused school shootings to TRIPLE. Maybe we should removed that legislation first.

We’re about to see a massive request for an increase in guvment spending on more healthcare.

Even with a D behind his name, he’s right.

Armed security and security checks. IF we can do it for every sporting event and college football game for a hundred thousand people in an hour or so . . . they can buy the equipment for schools to do the same. IF they have to, add 30 minutes to morning and/or afternoon schedules to accommodate for the extra time needed. Our kids safety are worth it. It has become an epidemic and must be stopped. The right way by hardening the target.

but there’s a series of actions to make schools safer, such as “...more mental health counseling for troubled teens...."

Maybe Warner could go down to Broward, Florida and find out about the success they're having with school programs for troubled teens (snort).

Gun grabbers seem to believe that there’s a critical mass of laws that will prevent mass shootings. We just have to keep piling them on until the shooting stop.

They always demand that we do “something”. Isn’t banning gun free zones something?

Give the current circumstances, it isn’t fixable.
You can’t throw the dangerous offenders out of school.
You can’t teach them morality or Christianity.
You can’t punish them appropriately.

"Making sure people are safer with their own firearms? Absolutely."

This is extremely dangerous and many conservatives are foolishly falling for it. "Safer with their own firearms" means they will be required to be locked in a cost prohibitive vault and inaccessible. Any time firearms are not locked in that vault they will have the owner in jeopardy of going to prison. It will also cause insurance companies to get involved and charging excessive home owners premiums if firearms are on the property. These commies intend to make it too much of a liability to own a firearm.

We better wake up. All federal gun control laws must be repealed. We must go on the offensive.

More healthcare? Dead kids don’t need no healthcare! They should have had live, armed protection! School boards need to be sued.

Maybe dad’s should properly secure their firearms. That’s a good start.

BAN HOLLYWOOD and the majority of the Entertainment Industry that sells poison, moral bankruptcy and glorifies deviant behavior, glorifies GUN Violence.... and see how things change.

Unless he wants to turn this into confiscation as a national policy. Not saying he is but would not put it past Dims.

This is the guy who let his staffer take the fall for bringing Warner’s gun to his office in DC.

He also is somehow connected to the Hellery/Obama/Brennan/Comey “Operation Crossfire Hurricane”, which he defends everyday, and which is unraveling.

He’s getting worried about not getting re-elected.

I wonder if we’ll find out, like in Broward County, that school officials weren’t reporting kids with problems to avoid making the schools look bad....esp if the kids were minorities. Another Obama legacy program.

Yes. One single piece of legislation would have stopped it.

Armed security in the schools.

“Should there be more mental health counseling for troubled teens, the number of the incidents caused by young men time and time again? Absolutely.

IIUC, this kid showed zero red flags prior to the incident. So the questions are, when did he either (1) covertly convert to Islam or (2) start taking some new medication?
