        Is the shooter’s dad considered one of the accomplices? If not, forget about it. Parents whose registered arms are being used need to be accountable too. That will be a good start to the gun control🙏.

        The first step in gun control is to control your own guns. Do that well and we wouldn’t need legislation.

        There needs to be legal liability for gun use. You lose them, loan them, act careless - you're responsible for the results.

        I am pro 2A and I have been saying this for years. Too many kids get hold of their parents guns because they are not properly stored. As a parent you should know if your child has anger or any other issues that would make you question having a gun in the house.

        So true. How can that kid's parent claim they didn't know that their son was a latent murderer AND was making bombs? I call BS.

        My daughter was bullied for years it cause anger and anxiety issues no way I would have considered having a gun let alone one not locked up. I never thought she would hurt someone else but it's not worth even a small risk.

        They will resort to attacking the kids because the shooting brings up he obvious discussion of gun control. They always start to blame the victims for getting shot.

        People who want no restriction on guns. They start blaming victims when they speak out. Start talking like it's their fault because they didn't have a gun to protect themselves or whatever reason. Even though there were two cops there we will see this happen again.

        Someone at last saying it as it is Get NRA OUT of politics Fix the 2nd Amendment so it ca be used to properly control gun ownership instead of being a source of evil, criminal, abuse & perversion by outrageous gun fanatics & the NRA which has bought power with $millions

        Or, you know, enforce the 2nd amendment IN FULL as it is written. With that whole “for the purpose of a free state” “well-regulated militia” part. You want the second amendment? We’re gonna give it to you, and you’re gonna have to be active SERVEICE to keep your guns.

        Actually, with Title 10 and Title 32 of the USC, the National Guard became the state militias, under control of the state governors and the state Adjutant Generals. So you can fuck right off with that argument.
