I have collectible rifle. It's a Henry Arms lever action. It won't do what an AR-15 can.
I will not own an AR-15. I'm going to get rid of my handguns as well.
I don't want to own something that can end multiple lives anymore.

19 ppl sick and hurt is not the same as 19 kids and thats a disingenuous comparison
like comparing little league to mlb and sayin well they both play baseball
then you stretch it to cars and fires when have you heard of someone driving down a high school hallway?
burning down the high school?
so mass incidents of killings are now strawman
news flash folks, when people wanna kill, they're gonna use anything at there disposal and find da biggest population of vulnerable people... I.E.
Both male and female attackers pulled out long-bladed knives and stabbed and slashed passengers. At the scene, police killed four assailants[3][4] and captured one injured female. The incident, targeted against civilians, left 31 civilians and 4 perpetrators[1] dead with more than 140 others injured.[5][6]

facetious and disingenuous

I agree that people will use anything at their disposal, but you still have to do SOMETHING.
Sitting back and essentially saying "it is what it is, be careful out there" is ludicrous. We're basically accepting that we're the most violent country and have no intention of acknowledging it aside from hashtags and "prayers."

Why is it if theres a white teen shooting, he's troubled.
But 1 black teen killing another, it's horrific gang violence that needs to end?
US is all sorts of ******.

I'm sorry I dont have time for your levels of incompetence today.
So now your conversation is limited to schools and able bodies... not mass killings. Got it ... have a good day sir.

This is what I'm saying ....
**** everything else about gun control and ******** ... stop label the minorities as some type of savages that need to go back to their country when the whitepeople are often doing this **** and They are just sick.

I would like to think that proper engagement with any individual is not a fruitless effort. If talking to an individual and knowing that deep down, we all have the same motives, then maybe an understanding can be reached. If that's not the case, then there is no hope for this country at all.

Know someone with an AR? talk to them. tell them what the NRA does. Tell them what voting republican does. If the government is going to be quiet once again WE NEED TO BE THE VOICE OF THOSE THAT ARE DYING.
SPEAK FOR THOSE THAT CAN NOT SPEAK ANY LONGER.

is a school not supposed to a sacrosanct institution free from outside violence at the least as a society?
my argument isnt against all mass violence i understand not everything can be prevented
but arent schools supposed to be safe from that? at least?
but here yall wanna bring up everything and the kitchen sink to prove what point exactly?
you know all the ways to do this and that but you cant think of nothing to prevent it
but you can really condescend to tell me im being incompetent?

No but it vastly is outweighed by donations GOP received in the last election cycle
GOP in 16 was $5.9M
DEM in 16 was $100k
