Brian Williams in his reporting said that "there is nothing we can do." with regard to mass school shootings in the US. My question: WHY NOT? this is the 42nd school shooting (not including suicides this year)
26 have been killed. Something has to be done. A good start would be with reining in the fucking NRA!!!
I think about this every morning when my wife and daughter leave the house. My wife is a teacher and daughter is a community college student.
Just reported that this is the 7th time Obama has had to make a statement about mass shootings during his 6.7years in office. I feel sad for him that the Republican's in Congress with the NRA's cash obstruct him anytime there is a sensible gun control proposal!
Also, I blame the right wing media folks (Hannity O'Reilly, Limbaugh) who whip marginalized people to act destructively on their anger!!

Most mass shooters obtain the guns legally.
You cannot stop a lone nut.
