    Again, you evaded the question. One can only conclude from that, that you effectively admit that you want legislation that you have absolutely no idea how or if it would work out, thereby making it clear that it is useless.
    That is exactly my point. It makes no sense to want legislation to be passed if one has absolutely no idea how it would solve or help to solve the problem(which is what I asked you).
    So, in light of that, there is no doubt that what you want is not try to solve a problem, but simply pass your emotionally based agenda.

    That is right. Historically, prohibition has worked great in the US.

  3. Same attitude the dems have toward immigration.

    These libclowns are not the liberal activists of yesteryear. They are real "Not my problem, Man" types. They are just in it to make sure that they win elections- or not- and then the people they used for votes are on their own again.

    They can talk big about changing the constitution to eliminate the electoral college but once their butt hurt subsides a little they are too flaccid to do anything. They can have long cerebral arguments about what Scalia would and would not have supported but have absolutely no plans to even attempt to amend the constitution because they are defeated and flaccid before they even log off Facebook where they are warriors.

    "We shall overcome?" Not. Bunch of pussies who can bitch about Trump. That's about it. Pitiful.

    You seem emotional to me. And that’s alright, it’s good to have passion. I’m just dealing with the reality of the circumstances as they exist.

    You are completely wrong in this analysis. Youre looking to mix and match issues just to argue.

    Who cares what I seem to you? We're not talking about me. ;)
    How about answering the question I made instead of simply evading it again and again?:D

    I don’t have any problem sharing gun control policies that will lessen the amount of gun violence in America. We can:

    Ban all assault weapons

    Registration of all guns

    Have better background checks that include mental health reporting, domestic violence reporting, terroristic threats reporting

    Mandatory gun owner licensing that includes Mandatory firearm training, Mandatory mental health screening

    Treat private sales the same as commercial sales

    However, the politics in America is such that ideas like these coming from people who are not republicans turns the conversation into a partisan argument. But, because it is republicans that are pro gun, the solutions have to come from them to focus on the issue instead of the politics.

    I get people are used to this being a democrat vs republican issue but we are at a point where there is no end in sight with these school massacres. They just keep happening and we have to take steps that will be effective. As I mentioned the governor of Florida made some decent proposals that will save some lives and I support them but they are not a cure all.

    Now, if we are not able to control who can get a gun nationwide, we need to take a look at school security because we know of the status quo continues this will keep happening.

    So at minimum, we need at least two tactically trained security officers with at least AR-15s at every school. And you may find that absurd and costly but what is the life of a school aged student worth to you? How does $250k a year, per school sound? Is that too much?

    All of these items will be respected by people that respect the law. But we're talking about a maniac murderer that has no respect for the law. How is any of these items going to prevent him from getting his hands on a gun?

    Honestly, with the current debt the U.S. is in, my guess is that any additional spending is too much. But if people agree to do this on their own, that is O.K.
