Thread: Pondering......

Adding more guns to the problem isn't a solution. Given the state of affairs in this country there is no solution. If there is enough traction over this they may ban assault weapons and make a few changes but I don't see it making a difference.

Yeah there is no solution, I do think some sort of reality needs to be faced. There are and will be more school shootings and some sort of solution that doesn't involve turning schools into prisons needs to be thought of. Guns or Guards need to be added some how to schools, a 10 minute response by police means a death toll. Get rid of guns and it will be something else. Thankfully Columnbine killers suffered from shoddy fuses on their bombs or else about 2000 to 3000 people would have been killed in that event.

The problem isn't weapons, the problem is monsters that manipulate the people around them and want to watch the world burn...You can't apply reason to this!

I'd say that is a reasonably accurate statement. The best one could hope for is a compromise that may reduce the risk of more carnage. I'm getting to a stage in life where nothing much suprises me any more, but many aspects of the debate in the aftermath of this tragedy appear to have plumbed previously undiscovered depths.
