      <![CDATA[Guns are not the problem.  They need to be guided by a person to do damage.  <br />
<br />
Neglectful parents who (to their benefit) didn't learn how to model constructive and pro-social behavior for their children are a dangerous, growing phenomenon in our society.<br />
<br />
Who's regulating/monitoring parenting skills?  Because we become parents doesn't give us a "free ticket" from having mental health and interpersonal communication issues which need attention. <br />
<br />
Metaphoric to a person who seeks to acquire a gun -  a parent who is not "qualified" (has no "background check" or monitoring done for parenting/communication skills) is potentially very dangerous.  Further, parents "wrap their hands around" a child, guide/"aim" their direction, and, ultimately, pull the trigger.<br />
<br />
What we really need to give our attention to is not the gun, but who's behind the trigger?<br />

      <![CDATA[?Well I wrote you a rather extended reply but it didn't post. Probably for the best I suppose.<br>
<br>
Australia is an outpost of the elites. It's their new base in toto. Pine Gap is a multinational military base off limits to all mortals. I would advise reading some of Gordon Duffs articles for further info at Veterans Today. It may well be the home to a new global security threat.<br>
<br>
Like I said, you are receiving propaganda. Question authority means questioning what you are being told. It doesn't mean mouthing off the some dumb ass flat foot.<br>
<br>
To answer you. Crime increased immediately with the siezure of firearms. Semi automatic weapons are prohibited. Note that only 3% of all guns were supposedly turned in by some accounts.<br>
<br>
Human nature is unchanging. You can safely disarm once you are assured humanity has changed. It hasn't yet.<br>
<br>
See the real problem is America and it's guns. That the problem the elites face. Do you think there is anything that they would not do to solve that problem?<br>
<br>
We never had these things before so why are we having them now?  An AR-15 isn't any thing more impressive than a M-14 or an M1 Garand which are vastly more powerful and which we defeated the Koreans and the Germans and Japanese with. These too were semi auto rifles, assualt rifles.<br>
Yet again, did returning Veterans have their kids going off to slaugher grade schoolers?<br>
<br>
I just think that there is more going on. It hasn''t a damn thing to do with guns except that there are too many Americans with too many guns for someone or something to control them. That's what I think...it's something you all should be thinking about and asking your own selves about.<br>
<br>
Toss in all the other unreported news and you got a reason to ask what the hell is going on. It isn't an answer to disarm when you got good reason to be suspicious about highly charged events like this, and it isn't going to solve anything, but it could well be a huge mistake.

<br>
Apparently you would rather risk the lives of childern to the wims of unquestioned rulers with no means to contest their edicts.<br>
<br>
Try learning some history, and then try assuming some responsibility as an adult. What; you think that when you have removed any means to contest the brilliance of the rulers by stealing your neighbors guns this will solve something? It will be the beginning of your problems.<br>
<br>
You people are the Zombies....seriously, you think that there couldn't possibly be anything else going on? Who might gain by this mass murder? Have you considered that? Oh, there are no conspiracies are there? This is all just because of Gun Nuts isn't it? Brilliant!

      <![CDATA[Disorganizedreligon, this is why I didn't attach my name. You have no respect for anyone. How about an intelligent reply? It is precisely because of people exactly like you that the Bill of Rights was created to begin with, and you serve as a prime example of why only someone insane would surrender their rights. Look at your reply to an intelligent plea for thoughtfulness.<br>
<br>
Is it inconceivable to you that perhaps more is involved than just access to guns? Something which has always been a part of America. All you can seem to want to do is strip your fellow neighbors of their rights. Yet again, this hasn't happened anywhere else in the world has it? <br>
<br>
You are nothing more than another Bushistia fascist loving stooge. Uttering orge comments.<br>
<br>
You are the one making assumptions, you are the one who's questioned nothing you have been told, and you assume you have the full and honest story coming from souces like CNN? Like Fox? After all why would they lie?<br>
<br>
You know, how many people do think like myself would venture to say something on the Strangers Slogs? Yet you cannot appreciate even that much.<br>
<br>
I can tell you that I seriously doubt you are getting the full story. Our nation has all kinds of military and black ops going on across the globe, yet somehow this couldn't possible be related somehow could it?<br>
<br>
Please, try to be a bit more thoughtful and carry on a discussion. Name calling serves no one. I said that good men and women do not serve you any longer and I said why. Calling me an NRA Stooge was your idea. I'm not a<br>
NRA member. I'm an old man that has done what I could to help where I could to maintain both civilization, and to help people at an individual level.<br>
<br>
I'm an old man trying to get you to think before you leap.<br>
<br>
What? Our armies are blowing people up across the globe but yet again events like these, which have happened elsewhere aren't possibly indications that more is going on?<br>
<br>
Try questioning some things before you start attacking everyone that tells you something you stupidly believe is right and just and true.<br>
<br>
I can tell you right now that if the government is telling you something and the news channels like CNN and Fox are in agreement, then you just about bank on it being disinformation.  Haven't you learned anything by reading the Stranger?<br>

<br />
Before you start labeling me a "progressive" "gun grabber," at least do me the honor of reading my other postings on the subject. I fully understand that both the U.S. and Washington State constitutions, and those of a whole lot of other states, recognize an individual RKBA. <br />
<br />
All rights are subject to reasonable regulation and limits, including RKBA. But I disassociate myself with the obnoxiousness of the fake-o Seattle "progressives" who are spouting a lot of nonsense. There ought to be a way for gun owners and those who recognize RKBA to also acknowledge problems and gaps in the law.<br />
<br />
If you can't do that, then I'll file you in the same "nutcase" bag that holds some of the "progressive" crazies and fakers, starting with the feckless and cynical mayor of Seattle.

      <![CDATA[Fnarf, did you read what I wrote? You are only to speak as you do because of gun owners. Not in spite of them. Would you prefer that you need to stand on a soap box inside a specific area of Volunteer Park to speak your mind whislt a policeman takes notes of your blather? That is what the eutopia of the Unemployed Kindom has and has had for several hundred years now.<br>
<br>
You are probably quite unaware that 15 thousand people recently surrounded Parliament calling upon the police to arrest criminals inside accussed of high crimes. Why do you suppose you've no information about that?<br>
<br>
You are probably unaware that a US Senator on the banking committee had an 18 year old illegal alien sex offender working as a Senate Page on the day this mass shooting happened. Accidental is it?<br>
<br>
Yet in your mind, it would be better to disarm everyone else and this is because you are unaware of the reality of the world around you. You would rather we all pay for your childish delusions and desires of irresponsibility than to accept your duty as an adult.<br>
<br>
You need to reconsider your allegiance to the notion that a disarmed population would be a safer society. History refutes that in toto as the most dangerous and delusional idea of all.
