    Liberals don't have much of a clue about what the NRA is or does. Really what does the NRA do other than rate candidates and publish their ratings and give small amounts of funding to candidates? Liberals for whatever reason cannot except the fact that the NRA is a grassroots organization that derives whatever power it has from the collective actions of ordinary people. One would think that by definition liberals would applaud collective actions of ordinary people, that is if liberals were really liberal.

    Msuch better to let them die defenseless than to have a chance. Look at how much damage it would do to your cause if one of these volunteers kills a shooter. Those lives just arent worth the risk.

    In So Cal we have had two copycat mass shootings that were stopped with arrest and confiscations of the guns and ammunition that was going to be used by proactive law enforcement police departments so far this week.

    It was students who have rejected political correctness indoctrination and weren't snowflakes who dropped a dime contacting the proper authorities that prevented these copy cat mass shootings.

    To a cowardly liberal any thought of self defense is a paranoid fantasy. The weapon of choice for liberals is a rape whistle.

    If the shooter was black Obama would recognize him as his son, an award would be put for the head of one of these volunteers, riots, destruction, violence etc...

    If the shooter was not black, the children will be gathered at CNN to demand confiscation of guns, riots, destruction, violence etc...

    And you say no damage?

    Better get out your Google button. Fantasy and is eternally in the leftist section. Along with denial

    Teachers all across the country are coming forward and asking to be armed. After proper training of course.

    No one in America has ever been forced to bear arms. But the more responsible, caring, civic minded pistol packing civilians the better I say :)

    Just like their DACA failure this is already backfiring on leftists.

    Gosh it is a good time in our countries history to be conservative. Kinda I'm moderate. I get in trouble with the far right some.

    why do you want to pass more laws when law enforcement has demonstrated they wont properly enforce the laws we already have
    background checks are only as good as the information given to the data banks
    this crazed violent kid wouldn't have been able to buy that rifle if the police did its job and he would have been added to the list

    Or, one of those teachers accidentally kills a kid. Ah well, dead kids are fine with you as long as your're not inconvenienced buying a gun so that wouldn't be a big deal.

    And the officer's trainer failed him, by certifying him as ready to handle an active shooter situation.

    EARLIER REPORTS HAD SAID HE WAS EXPELLED, BUT THAT TURNS OUT NOT TO BE THE CASE:Parkland shooter always in trouble, never expelled. Could school system have done more?

    No wonder the school and the sheriff are so eager to blame the gun.

    What a bunch of crap you're spewing. Perhaps a sheriff deputy failed these students along with the NRA. One individual is not the 'police'. It's an individual who apparently learned the hard way that he had picked the wrong career. Tragic? yes. But one man that froze when having to make a critical decision does not represent the nation's nor the world's police. Just as in military combat, many men do not know how they will behave until the bullets start flying. Not everyone is up to the task. Unless you've been there and know the answer you might perform just as that deputy did. He has since been dismisses/resigned which is appropriate.

    You just cannot predict how a person will react in a given situation for the first time. You can train someone to hit paper target of clay pigeons but a human target fir the first time you do not know what will happen.

    you just want to pass more regulations more laws that wont solve a dam thing but keep guns out of the hands of responsible law abiding citizens and do nothing to keep them out of the hands of deranged evil killers that is what the NRA is against
    now if you come up with a solution that doesn't infringe on the rights of responsible law abiding citizen and prevent or guards against mass shootings the NRA would certainly jump aboard

    and yes banning the AR-15 is a direct infringement of the second amendment

    read DC v Heller

    DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA et al. v. HELLER

    "The Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm unconnected with service in a militia, and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home.
    .....the sorts of weapons protected are those “in common use at the time”

    read that again “in common use at the time”

    the AR-15 is one of the most popular rifles sold in America so I would say it is “in common use at the time”

    You haven't been paying attention, have you?

    I've been saying all along to arm teachers and faculty.
    Who said to give kids guns? I didn't.

    Why do you have to make stupid remarks?

    Or unless you are calling teachers and faculty kids? Well, are you?

    This is a great business opportunity for people who work with Virtual Reality programs. You could have the prospective gun slinger strap on the gun in some fashion and then run the VR program of the school shooter. So when the gun slinger hears the bullets and sees the commotion and panic and comes across some nice looking little girl or smiling white boy school shooter will the gun slinger blast them away or freeze? That way you can determine who the gun slinger will be most likely to plug based upon racial and other characteristics of the shooter. You could get rich selling the program.

    that's not a loophole
    I agree but like I said before background checks are only as good as the information placed in its data banks
    if you are never arrested even thou you placed a gun to someone's head, made other threats with a gun, brought ammunition and knives to school, had the police called on you 39 times, and posted on line that you are going to be a professional school shooter you will never be placed in those data banks and you will pass the background check
