Someone said we could not judge a person's Aboriginality on their skin colour.  Why isn't that applied in the matter of Pascoe?  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

It seems the Left believes none of us can focus on more than one crisis at a time. I still see the disaster cursing us by the Democrats, I am not distracted!

animal abuse and shooting people with BB guns.


Two red flags, but nothing was done apparently

Those abuses could have been recorded and sent to every gun retailer in the country, stored on computer for character vetting. Any recorded abuse means automatic disqualification of gun ownership

That's right

If red flags were recorded against anyone's name, they needn't even try to register for gun ownership

So, I suppose you represent the Catholic priest getting all upset, Bobby?


Is that what you'd like for your fantasy?


What? Me heckling you after you get upset about nothing? Not really.

You get one chance to heckle a gay person. After that, we start to call you out for "looking for a new friend". Otherwise, we let the gay posters here go after you for gay harassment.

Mort, you can have all the gun "laws" in the world at your disposal. But, if you do not have gun "control", the laws mean little. Remove all automatic and semi-automatic high-powered weapons from sale. Leave the pistols and rifles as available for sale. And then have background checks on someone so that no whackos are able to purchase firearms from gun stores.

That should free up police resources to go after illegal gun ownership and private sales of such illegal guns.

Harris calls for assault weapons ban after back-to-back mass shootings



DJ Judd
Devan Cole byline

By Donald Judd and Devan Cole, CNN

Updated 2016 GMT (0416 HKT) May 28, 2022




Washington (CNN)Vice President Kamala Harris called for an assault weapons ban Saturday, saying that in the wake of two back-to-back mass shootings such arms are "a weapon of war" with "no place in a civil society."
"On the issue of gun violence, I will say, as I've said countless times, we are not sitting around waiting to figure out what the solution looks like. You know, we're not looking for a vaccine," Harris told reporters in Buffalo, New York, after attending the funeral for a victim of a mass shooting there earlier this month. "We know what works on this. It includes, let's have an assault weapons ban."
"You know what an assault weapon is? You know how an assault weapon was designed?" she continued. "It was designed for a specific purpose -- to kill a lot of human beings quickly. An assault weapon is a weapon of war with no place, no place in a civil society."

The comments from the vice president come as the nation is reeling from both Buffalo, where 10 people were killed in a racist mass shooting at a supermarket, and from a mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, earlier this week in which 19 children and two teachers were killed by a gunman.


Harris, who has previously called for an assault weapons ban, also on Saturday called for enhanced background checks for firearm purchases, noting that, to date, there have been over 200 mass shootings in the country, despite being "barely halfway through the year."
"Everybody's got to stand up and agree that this should not be happening in our country, and that we should have the courage to do something about it," she said.


Harris did not respond to a reporter's question on whether President Joe Biden would pursue an executive order if Congress failed to pass meaningful gun reform. The President said during a trip to Buffalo last week that there was "not much on executive action" that he could do to further strengthen gun control measures. He said he needed to instead "convince Congress" to pass legislation like the 1994 assault weapons ban.

The semi auto, so-called "assault rifle" is 110 years old. It isn't new in any way.

The semi auto rifle was not a weapon of war. The government MADE IT a weapon of war 40 years after civilians had them.

The semi-auto can be safely owned by civilians. The proof is that literally 3 generations of adults owned and used them responsibly and no one ever even noticed.

Want to fix the horror of mass shootings? Fix the things that have changed for the worse in the last 50 years. Family Values,  Prayer from Schools, Ten Commandments from court houses, Spanking Kids, Morals, What is socially acceptable, more than 2 genders, transgender, pronouns, CRT, 1619 fiction, The Pledge of Allegiance, etc.
Because the rifle technology in question was here long before this insanity.

In that case post your opinions using a quill pen, paper and the mail service. There was no internet in 1776.
