Why restrict the freedom of the many, when restricting the freedom a few will be far more just.
This jackass jumped the shark into Hollywood Dumbassville.
I would like to know the number of shooters in the past 50 years who have caused this kind of mayhem & heartbreak IN THE USA. 20? 4-? 60? 110? TOTAL ??
They all were wrong-—but HOW MANY were there????
There are OVER 330,000,000 people in the USA—that we know of...Census hasn’t been accurate for about 4 cycles.
IF only 1/3 of those USA citizens have weapons-———Then the percentage of trouble makers has to be VERY SMALL.
PUNISHING THOSE for the acts of a VERY LOW PERCENTAGE of the WHOLE is just plain wrong.
A far higher percentage of people drive drunk-—but there are NO CALLS OF ANGUISH to STOP the use, ownership & manufacture of cars & trucks.
Mandatory equipment will be on new cars soon to try & prevent drunk drivers-—which isn’t right, either. TOO BROAD A BRUSH.
ONLY a drunk driver should have to have such equipment-—I do NOT drink-—and I am FAR FROM the only USA citizen who will have to pay for another fancy piece of equipment that I NEVER had to get in the first place.
We deserve better.
Since the mental hospitals in all states were required to close-—for very thin reasons-—Violence has grown.
People with serious problems are roaming unrestrained on ALL of our streets & then, to make everything MUCH WORSE-—Attorneys General of states & cities are not even keeping such persons in custody-——They are out before papers are done. There is a catch & release program that NEEDS TO END.
This only makes non-troublesome persons very vulnerable.
We NEVER know where an attack by a mentally unbalanced person may be coming from—in your car-—taking a walk—riding a bicycle—mowing your lawn-—buying groceries—enjoying a night out with friends.
The VICTIMS are NOT just the names & faces we see on the TV.
WE ARE ALL VICTIMS-—and millions of legal gun owners in the USA have NEVER caused ANY trouble.
BUT-—A perp kills a man in the Subway on Sunday and we find out that he has 19 or 20 prior charges & NO restrictions on HIS movement. HE has been using a revolving door in & out of the Justice system in NYC.
Rural persons deal with predators against their goats—dogs—cattle—horses chickens—hogs & other livestock. They have a right to protect such livestock the same as a city person has a right to protect their families. Those ranchers/farmers need guns to do such protection. Calling “Animal Control” IS NEVER an option. NO COYOTE I have ever seen waits around for the fuzz.
The MENTAL HOSPITALS MUST be reopened & used in a serious manner.
NO AMERICAN should lose their right to a gun over the actions of persons who do not belong out in public in the first place.
