A guest on the Stephanie Miller show revealed what on of the surviving student said. I understand because I saw the body of a soldier that had the same result. Now imagine if your child had see that. Imagine the trauma and now lifetime memory of such an event. I am sorry but it is time to put on the brass knuckles verbally when some evil ass attacks one of the kids.
Students in proximity to the shooting have seen the same thing that a soldier sees in a very active combat situation. The memory of these casualties will be in the memories of these kids. We cannot be nice. The NRA has to be viciously and repeatedly attacked. I do not care how personal it gets.
What the hell are we as a country? The AR 15's should be turned in yesterday and destroyed and melted down forever. There should be NO choice. Absolutely NO choice.
And any politician who does not support a ban should face withering verbal fire. I just do not get it.

(10,602 posts)GOPHERS would claim he was being partisan and political. But that is ok. I would own and I damn well am political. And I am proud of it. It is and should be political. I want AR'15.s destroyed.

I'm encouraged to see these kids fighting. I know from my interaction with young people, that while they relate to the ideals of the democratic party, they have been constantly disappointed and discouraged by the unwillingness to fight. Dems lose when they cower in fear. Dems lose when they are so worried about losing the center that they stop listening to the left.
Maybe the kids will teach the parents that being submissive won't win any fights.

90-percent
(6,828 posts)is the force behind LOW INFORMATION VOTERS voting Republican and making their lives and our country worse.
Because they got billions for media manipulation and they hire only the best graduates from the Josef Goebbels School of Mass Manipulation. Now updated for the internet and social media.
Lots and lots of social and behavioral sciences have been unleashed with billions of evil dollars behind it.
All because the silver spooners want more for them by making less for us. And all of us only deserve a subsistence living of constant toil because we're lesser humans that aren't good enough to experience life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That's the exclusive purview of the gold plated toilet crowd.

Rich people however, understand there is only so much. They realize the more they have of the pie, the more we will be grateful for their scraps. Basically comes down to they are so entitled that they think they deserve slaves and will spend as much money as it takes to fool the ignorant

(12,265 posts)The worst trauma our kids should experience is not making the football team or the debate team, not seeing their friends and teachers shot in front of them. I still think the NRA should be sued by the families as co conspirators in the death of their kids.

Never happen. I bet you couldn't find 10 Democrats in the House and Senate to support that as legislation.
