Sweet irony - beg for more regulations, get more regulations (but not the kind they wanted apparently).
None of the solutions being thrown around are going to solve anything.
I agree. This is a mental health issue. If you want a real gun problem try and take away guns. Im not saying certain measures shouldnt be taken, like say take away a 60 round drum, but it will be a long, long process that people will fight as long as possible . I think there could be a compromise that would reduce magazine capacity, but it wont make a damn bit of difference .
But they don't understand the term compromise anyway. For example: I challenge Luther, OBV and the resident attorneys to tell me what they will give to me that I do not already have if I give them.... oh... bump stocks? Or waiting periods? Or age limits? What will you give me to enhance my rights?There is no compromises. If you give an inch even over mag capacity the Luthers of the world will try to take a country mile.

Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel, who touted his own "amazing leadership" after the Parkland school shooting, is facing a no-confidence vote from the union representing his deputies.
Jeff Bell, the president of the Broward Sheriff's Office Deputies Association, told CNN on Friday that union members had decided to move forward with the vote, which will begin electronically tonight and will close on April 26.
"There is a complete failure at the sheriff's office and he doesn't recognize it," Bell said.
Calling the vote a "ploy," Israel said the union "is trying to use the Parkland tragedy as a bargaining tactic to extort a pay raise."
The no-confidence voting period will close April 26, to allow all the voting members to cast their ballot during their shift. All deputies and sergeants in the union will have the power to vote.
While the outcome of the no-confidence vote is mostly symbolic, it will give the sheriff a sense of what his rank-and-file deputies think of his command.
