And just what does that tell you about the difference between our two

Not much. Nothing is a 'weapon' until it's turned into one, regardless
of if it's a gun, knife, claw hammer, axe, box opener...

We are a nation of desperate people,

And why is that?

Think making guns real available is a good idea?

No. I obtained mine legally and maintain and use them in accordance
with State and Federal laws. If that's not suitable for you then by
all means get out of the dump and run for high office. Then do what
you can to change the law.

Every one of the weapons used in high casualty incidents were obtained
legally.

That's the problem, someone obtains them legally, then someone either
"borrows" them or steals them to commit crimes and kill innocent people
and children.

Yep!

"Every one of the weapons used in high casualty incidents were
obtained legally."

Then used by criminal[s] in a highly illegal manner.



I don't know what may happen because of the latest massacre.

I hope the following happens:

1. Long-term, strong efforts to amend the 2nd Amendment to the
Constitution to make it as "difficult" to obtain a firearm as it is to
obtain and register a motor vehicle: no purchases, sales or transfers
without a paper trail and a background check. Include absolute, defined
restrictions on certain types of weapons and ancillary products that
typically are not used for hunting, target shooting or home defense.
These would make it illegal to possess certain types of firearms and
ancillary equipment. Illegal to possess would mean these firearms would
have to be turned in and destroyed, and the owner would receive a fee
for the turn-in.

Gosh, maybe they should do the same thing for voting. I believe any illegal alien can buy a car and
register it. Or, he can pay a 'legal' alien to do it for him.


2. Short-term, an end to the gun show loophole, and no purchases, sales
or transfers of any firearms without a paper trail and background check.
No sales of firearms that can or can be modified to handle a magazine or
clip that holds more than 10 rounds. No sales of such magazines or
clips. Turn-ins of such magazines or clips. No purchases, transfers or
sales of firearms without a waiting period.


So, if you want to kill twenty kids, you must know how to change magazines or clips. Really smart
idea, krause.


3. An immediate increase in the amount of funding available for
psychological screening and testing in all schools, and in the
availability of psychological counseling to all who need it, whether
they know it or not.


**** a bunch of privacy! If a kid looks at you with 'that tone of voice' he/she is sent to a shrink
(like the Dr. Dr. Dr.??) for immediate screening, testing, and incarceration if the 'shrink' deems
it warranted.


Another display of your ignorance and on several levels. It is good for
this country that right-wing assholes like you are aging and dying.

That's the best you can do? As stated earlier - you've reached your limit, now you must resort to
name-calling.

Another truism from 'Racist John'


There's no need to respond tit for tat to your idiotic opinions. Certain
licensed mental health professionals can have a person hospitalized for
72 hours for evaluations, but as soon as those hours are over, there's a
hearing before a judge, and judges typically are reluctant to
hospitalize someone beyond that without substantial evidence the person
is about to hurt others or him/her self. On the other hand, too many
individuals with mental illnesses are arrested, tried, convicted and
sent to prisons because there is a tremendous shortage of beds at
psychiatric hospitals.

Which member(s) of your family have been judged mentally incompetent and
needed long-term hospitalization?
