It's delusional to think nothing can be done and we are helpless to help prevent such things and cannot save any lives.

Unless you can fix our culture, you are powerless to prevent these horrible events. Think about that for a moment.

Ban gun would radically change the culture. Would it not? Not that I'm for it. Think about it for a moment. Take all the time you need.

For now we have enough guns in the country to eliminate the sale of most new ones. If you own them, you can transfer it to someone else with a thorough check. Nowhere in the constitution does it say guns cannot be registered. That is the fear that prevents this conversation. Fear of a tyrannical government that has nukes, war planes, grenades and many other weapons and someone thinking that their guns is going to stop them is completely laughable. The truth is the NRA has never lobbied for individual rights just the manufactures right to sell them.

So far you have been about the only one to start an actual dialogue about the issue. I admit I don't have the answers but am willing to discuss it.

This shooter apparently purchased his weapon legally through a dealer meaning he went through a BGC, how would requiring more transactions to be subjected to BGCs have prevented this?

Can't have a rational conversation with idiots.

Stop with the insults and stick to trying to argue you opinions and case, and if it doesn't resonate, try another avenue of expression and see if that works, and then try again with a different approach. When you get to this point, then just stop talking to the people who you feel are idiots instead of calling them this.

Not trying to be a di**, but, we need to be able to converse and keep emotions on the back burner or just not post.

I got curious about who is doing the majority of the shootings, where they occur and what weapons are used. I found a website called gun violence archive and without doing a spreadsheet the answers are caucasian do the shooting, using either rifles or semi-automatic weapons and the majority of these shootings occur in southern states.

When are people going to start doing something about this problem?

The stats are for the last 35 years
