Fat lot of good those unarmed cops did here!

Oh please. Police in London stopped a knife attack in a subway with only tasers

Bet those tasers work great on the driver of a speeding lorry crashing through the crowd.

Like the deplorable who killed Heather Hayer?

Too bad there were no good guys with guns.

Lots of your friends had guns there, but they weren't on the good guy side.

I cannot imagine how much of a soulless, hollow, pill of a human being I'd have to be for there to be 17 kids murdered where I live, near where my brother goes to school, and immediately go online to yell NRA talking points to the online community of people that almost unanimously despise me.

I want to get inside of the mind of the killer more than my own, so why don’t you tell me what it’s like? You’re an angry loser with a long history of wishing death on people after all. What’s it like?

Socialists don't murder people out of anger over being angry, outcast, racist losers. That's purely your bag.

The gun clearly isn't the problem.

Of course the easy access to guns is the problem. At least 50% of the overall problem here.

A person who has significant psychological and aggression problems will think twice about going on a rampage if his only tools available are a knife or a screwdriver.

An [automatic, high-capacity] gun or rifle will always significantly lower this hurdle in the head of the perpetrator.

And in this way, the US stands out as a unique negative example ...

When you consider the fact that mass shootings such as these could easily be avoided if people paid attention to those around them when there are clear warning signs and worked with them to get the help they need, the gun is irrelevant. You can talk about access to guns all you want, but it doesn't matter. It does nothing to solve the actual problems that lead to someone wanting to kill a bunch of people.

This is what people are trying to say when they talk about toxic masculinity, when they aren't drowned out by reactionary furor.

Incredibly proud of every surviving student who has taken the oppurtunity to tell Republicans that they are rancid monsters on live TV and social media.

Guns are a dangerous liability. Toddlers kill more people in the United States than foreign terrorists. Having teachers armed? Be prepared for more of this, only with injuries and death: http://abcnews.go.com/US/minnesota-3rd-grader-fires-police-officers-gun-school/story?id=52866888

A firearm in a home is more likely to be used against you than to defend you.

And you know what? I'd rather let a burglar take my stuff than murder him. I have insurance. Items can be replaced. That life cannot. And the actual lives of children being shot up at school who now are dead are worth a hell of a lot more than my TV in the very unlikely and theoretical situation of a burglary.

Who says he wants your stuff. Maybe he wants to rape your wife or daughter... you don’t know what his motive is

Why are you more afraid of the fake burgular you made to scare yourself in your head than the real massacres being carried out on a bi-annual basis?
