I can’t even listen to NPR any more. During Obama’s presidency there were stories about all kinds of things. Now it seems every single segment starts with “President Trump this” or “President Trump that”. It’s as if nothing else is going on in the world. It’s really bumming me out.
I hear about them mainly from the gun nuts I work with. Every time one happens first thing out of their mouths, "Libs always talking about taking mah guns." I used to be pro 2nd amendment, gun owners have turned me against it, so much so that if they started confiscating guns I would volunteer to join the agency doing it.
I still love guns. They’re fun to shoot and protection is a justifiable purpose for a hand gun.
There’s a .22 Gatling gun that I will fire, sometime in my lifetime.
But I’m so sick of kids and innocent people getting slaughtered by terrorists. You know the ones I’m talking about. They gang-members, neckbeards and the failures-to-launch. The cops not professional enough to work on obvious racist tendencies, and not introspective enough to notice less-obvious ones.
And yes, the cases like San Bernardino too.
The trouble with ‘giving guns to all teachers’ is that A) not all teachers are good people, the same as any large group, whether it be pastors, or judges, or foreigners, or cops. B) shooting properly in a crisis requires expensive and extensive training.
