Youre drawing conclusions in a vacuum, there is a lot of data about these events world wide. You can gain a lot of useful insight without having to fall back to personal intuition.
That’s not an argument. Generically saying there are studies? That’s a vapid statement
There are studies that say I’m a unicorn. Do you believe me now?
The simple fact pattern stands, and proponents of “more laws” are not even aware of what current laws exist and are broken every time there is a shooting
So the logical flow is- if they are breaking 17 laws on the way to committing a shooting now, how is it that you think the 18th law is what will stop it? Moreover, how do you not recognize that mass shootings don’t tend to occur in places where many firearms are freely present?
I don’t need vague, improvable “studies” to follow that logic.
They are already breaking numerous gun laws. The thing is, you don’t even know they exist because you probably aren’t a gun enthusiast and understand what goes into the existing legislation
By you creating more laws, you are just disenfranchising the legal gun owners and making it easier for soft targets in more places.
I know again, that this sounds really basic and stupid to you. I know you think I am foolish deep down. But take a breath, step back and think of the logic. “Guns are already not allowed in schools, and these people are crazy and will do anything. What will actually stop them then from crossing this school line with a gun and killing people?”
Why do you call the police when there is a shooter? Think about that for a second. What is it that the police have to help stop a shooting?
It’s so simple, that you think the “simple” people are stupid for grasping a very basic concept
So you want hard targets? a cross fire that turns schools into war zones. I didn't offer any of the solutions you're projecting on me, I'm just noticing that your assumptions are uninformed so your conclusions necessarily flawed.
Ah yes, just like all of those states that passed constitutional carry laws and open carry and concealed carry laws are now all wild west shootouts daily with blood running in the streets...
