2 dead in school shooting in KY

[Sir Napsalot]

When I was in highschool we used to keep our guns in our lockers so we could go hunting after school

What changed between then and now? Children aren't allowed to carry a pocket knife anymore. Schools should be safer, but...

Everything

I should add that this was in a tiny town (pop. 870) in NE Oregon in '74-'75

More bad external influence. Less good influence. I see so many kids with kids today. Maybe 30 but still kids. I had an electronics instructor who used to say " There are 2 types of information, need to know and nice to know. Need to know will let you fix this control, nice to know will impress your friends or bartender". More people know about things that don't help you better yourself.

There's a reason why the NRA won't let their lackeys in DC spend any money on studying gun violence, because if the public new the truth they would be outraged.

You mean the Russian money laundering NRA? Fucking traitors.

They won't even allow a computerized registration data base for firearms.

Kids are also exposed to way different shit than we were WB ....just look at video games for example ...pretty graphic shit.

Not just video games list is long......I've noticed all the nice bike jumps down by the river are all overgrown .....same with dirt bike trails .....those jumps and trails were the spot to be for longer than I've been alive...... Seems kids these days would rather play video games or watch internet videos than ride bikes, motorcycles, or the girl next door etc etc....... I remember having to use my imagination to have fun as a kid......technology IMO has ruined that for kids.......creating a Buncha Softies..

I think that as well. We used roam freely when I was a kid. Miles from home.

Now I'm buying my 30 something daughter who is a nurse a stun gun.

This is why i carry a gun every day not to kill but to save.

you're 43 times more likely to kill your family member than to stop a bad guy, idiot.

I have guns in my room unlocked and with live mags in but not chambered

I have 3 kids

talk about dumber than fuck.

 

[abandonconflict]

"Guys, it's too soon...

Thoughts and prayers...

If his classmates had been armed..."

The solution is clearly to make butt stocks, silencers and depleted uranium rounds readily available.

Thoughts and prayers...

Yeah I hope he's trolling because that is not how a responsible gun owner acts.

And as a gun owner I don't appreciate someone acting so fucking stupidly and giving the rest of us a bad name.

"Stop politicizing it...why do Democrats always politicize these events? Thoughts and prayers" - Ted Cruz aka Zodiac Killer aka "Who voted for this dumb fuck?"

Think I'll have to tweet Ted soon and remind him what a piece of shit he is.

My problem with leaving guns laying around is that kids are stupid. Point blank. Not to offend any parents here. I'm sure everyone of us has memories of something stupid we did young.

No matter how well a kid is educated about guns. They lack impulse control and do stupid shit.

There is no way of assuring someone doesn't break in and use them or steal them.

There was a time and place that leaving a gun out was ok. The time is not now. Things have changed from the days you could leave your doors unlocked.
