    Powerful words from one of the doctors who treated some of the victims of the Parkland school shooting on why we need to get these military-style assault rifles off our streets.http://www.sun-sentinel.com/opinion/fl-op-parkland-shooting-ar-15-radiologist-perspective-20180223-story.html …

        I am sick if this is a mental health issue. I suffer from PTSD/Depression after serving in the military and I am not out shooting innocent people in the mass numbers. Most people with mental health issues tend to harm themselves, not others. Stop making excuses for murders!!

        Did you read the article? The trauma surgeon gives clinical evidence why assault weapons should not be in the hands of civilians. Mental health is a diversion tactic of the NRA.

        And to think Florida state legislators tried to make it illegal for a doctor to talk about gun safety with patients. NRA backed GOP keep us from studying and keeping statistics on gun deaths and injuries. This doctor sees them every day. Astounding.

        Far right finds another scapegoat. Tho scapegoating is their forte. Sheriff Israel(Dem) far less to blame than the legislators that allow these weapons in the hands of "terrorists".So if firings are to be, let's start at the top. Trump then Scott then etc..

        The video made in classroom on a student’s cell phone needs to be replayed periodically. I don’t know how anyone can hear the gun shots and the screams and do nothing.

        Well Chief of broward county has some sheriffs that would disagree with your point. Why don’t you ask them how they did nothing. Chief needs to resign but he is a dem hack and it won’t happen

        How about the failure of law enforcement? The emt’s are starting to come out and tell what happen.. a complete failure. Wounded kids left untreated for 45min because building wasn’t “cleared” wtf?!!

        Those issues should certainly be addressed, but tbh that's just closing the barn door after the horses escaped.

        Yep! Kinda like trying to ban guns when there are over a hundred million guns here in the United States. Won’t happen! But these law enforcement officials should be held accountable!

        Read the article before drawing other conclusions, it gives hard evidence why AR-15 style weapons s/b banned.

        So we are doing away with all the laws now, since criminals don't follow them? What a silly argument.

        Following your logic, there is no point in having any laws at all. That's called anarchy.

        There are so many false assumptions in your tweet 🤦🏼‍♀️where to begin. 1)No one said ban guns. I'm a gun owner. But there are arms outside the scope of #2a that aren't protected and should be more regulated. 2) you're doubling down on bad logic. Laws reduce crime. Period.pic.twitter.com/RQ0ZOPAHoY

        Every single court (including SCOTUS) disagrees with you. Machine guns are but one example.https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/assault-weapons-not-protected-second-amendment-federal-appeals-court-rules-n724106 …
