should be a public service ad, like this is your brain, this is your brain on drugs. run the ads daily, maybe more folks will pressure their congressperson to act and permanently ban them.
This is not the urban nightmare made for politicizing. It is a tragedy.
There were according to reports that there have been only 29 murders by any means in the state of Maine this past year. Not to make light of this by any means but 29 is a long weekend in Chicago.
This is someone going off the rails. Gun control laws have no bearing on this other than the ones in place for people with mental issues did not work. As usual ...
So yeah, lets have more laws that don't work. That'll fix things ...
Err. Tell me you don't know much about the Canadian health care system without telling me... talk to your Cdn friends about their experiences and lengthy wait times with our healthcare system. That our health care system is better than the US is a myth. Ask around.
As for guns, we, like you, currently have a govt bent on taking away legally owned guns from registered owners - all in spite of the fact that almost all gun crime comes from illegal guns smuggled in from the US - ie - unregistered and types not auth in Canada, and used by gangs and the the criminal element. Our situation has some similarities, but on the whole is different.
Thanks for the point. You regulate guns and have better outcomes, despite the ongoing problems with illegally procured weapons. That's pretty much what most rational American are asking for.
Don't ever do anything different, won't ever get anything different.
So known mental health issues, how did he have access to a gun? If we defend guns under all circumstances, this is what you get. Much like healthcare - most other countries, even yours, seem to do a much better job.

Gun instructor with known mental health issues.
It's not the gun, it's the person. Deal with the person & their situation.
Don't ever do anything different, won't ever get anything different.

But you were upset about though.
I get mad when people hack up trees. Not enough to kill.

The First Smart Gun Is Finally Coming to Market. Will Anyone Buy It?
Story by Zusha Elinson ⢠Jul 27
Sasha Wiesen sleeps with a .40-caliber handgun in a safe by his bed. The commercial real-estate broker from Florida recently preordered a new type of firearm he hopes will make the safe unnecessary.
The new weapon is the Colorado startup Biofireâs 9mm Smart Gun, which can only be fired if it recognizes an authorized user with a fingerprint reader on the grip or a facial recognition camera on the back.
Guns that use technology to ensure that they can only be fired by their owners, called smart guns, have been developed and debated since the 1990s. The Biofire Smart Gun will be the first widely available for sale if it ships in December as planned.
Proponents tout smart guns as a way to reduce accidental shootings and firearm thefts. Gun-rights supporters have been wary, in part over concern that governments could outlaw sales of weapons that donât have smart-gun technology.
The Secret History of Gun Rights: How Lawmakers Armed the N.R.A. They served in Congress and on the N.R.A.âs board at the same time. Over decades, a small group of legislators led by a prominent Democrat pushed the gun lobby to help transform the law, the courts and views on the Second Amendment.
