People need to remember that this so called American country is built on armory build up and advanced weapons so as long as they hold government contracts and in government demand for advanced weapons for so called defense than nothing will happen on gun control but the people will be more controlled than guns will
A sound not heard, a voice without words. Carried on sands devoid of time. Left in place where none' care to find. Wounded but no scars, alone though crowded as the stars. "A prison" without barrs. Few are trapped in a world, others freely play. Not aloud necessities, making existence life. Instead of a stagnant wondering through the day. Invisible when seen, and viewed upon as something unclean. They are purer than actions. Society as a whole, increasing allows. With morality some fleeting thought discarded, to practice narcistic venchers in their isolated crowds. Selfishly stepping on notions. That undesirables have rights, particularly in public. They so recklessly enjoy unbound. Until mental anquish gives final snap, sending those disrespected over the edge. Their only response remaining, is retaliation. Before being pushed off a crumbling ledge. Every act people make, or think. Is a straw to stack or brush away. That eventually will make or brake, the bridge needed for escaping earned destruction. Privileged citizens refuse to see coming their way. A domino is not felled before a push. Niether first nor the last. Even to wobble, without slitest brush. So to a moral is silent, where left unheard. As no one cares for listening to meaningful exchange, unless some other is the one getting burned. When arguments fall death on a civilization so vain. Then those few in misery hold accountable, the many to blame. With karma choosing to slumber, retribution shows up once more. Biding regres back to a time. Before sence and reason came knocking, at reality's door. Flames of indifference feed the pain, that compassion would take away. Then with a click' and a " Bang !" does true justice begin. When nothing more is left, for an outcast to say.

Nuclear weapons don't harm people either. They just sit there until someone decides to use them. Should we sell them at Walmart too?
This argument has never held water for me. People are the problem, but they aren't using butter knives to carry out their violence. These semi-automatic weapons of war need to be taken off the streets, all of them.
F-cking delusional. The Republican Party has gone insane. The most secular societies on the planet — particularly in Europe and East Asia — have the lowest rates of gun violence anywhere in the world. Care to explain that?! Surely it couldn't be strict gun laws, could it?!!!
if culture is part of the problem, then how would responsible gun ownership contradict that.. wouldn't that address the culture? bw gun ownership, lack of Healthcare funding, including for social programs like CPS, its clear these "principles" have no ground because there's constant contradictions. You can't stand for pro life and freedom if solutions are morally incompatible. "spiritual problem"? lol teaching respect? then why would you be against gun training and responsible gun ownership? 🤡
This man is full of BS period
The moral crisis stems in large part from the examples set by the EX and previous administration. The push to elect a leader in 2016 by those who claim to be Christian leaders, who make millions using an opposite or partial selective narrative than taught in the Christian Bible. Along with very wealthy people, corporations, and PACS are equally to blame for that horrible example. They sold an immoral, greedy, deceitful man who has absolutely no respect for the Law, The Constitution, or most importantly Christianity to the people. All of them, flat out lied to make more money. If the Congressman stands by his opinion then why does he cower to the EX and those on the fringe who are, to say the least confused? Greed, division, depict and hypocrisy are terrible examples for our young people. Need an example? Paula White and many others said the EX was now a Christian. The EX said he did not need to repent. If you have ever read the Bible you know that Repentance is the very Foundation of Christianity. The rest is history but also proof that lies and greed lead to a downfall! If you want to be a witness or a leader, walk the walk and talk the talk, don't be a hypocrite! Hold the EX and the criminals accountable for their crimes. Stop supporting evil for the sake of money! I agree that evil is a big part of what is wrong, look what it is doing to the United States!
Mass killers can kill more with poison than with a gun. Current record holder is Jim Jones at 909. Merck killed +38,000 with Vioxx and the corporate mass killers has a huge list. FDA still approving things that are killing people for profits.
Amen, Criminals are the problem…
Yeah that's true but if they didn't have access to these types of Assault rifles then we wouldn't have all.this killing!! Man take them dam certain guns off the market!! Only sell the hand guns Not Military Assault rifles from purchase in the stores!! Real talk!! Those people had never been in any kind of trouble and they knew they could go buy Those guns without anyone questions!! So quit blaming it on criminals dude!!! U sound nuts!!! 🤷ðŸÂ½â€Â♀ï¸Â🤷ðŸÂ½â€Â♀ï¸Â🤦ðŸÂ½â€Â♀ï¸Â🤦ðŸÂ½â€Â♀ï¸Â😡😡😡
Criminals will follow all these laws🤣🤣🤣 It’s all about gasoline prices and inflation caused by democrats in control of policy, stupid!
Dear President Joe BIDEN,ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿,,in 2016 USA general election ,,
I emailed many our medias across USA advising TRUMP build a dam but ,that water in the dam should go (Flow )all around the world,,,,
This dam is feelings or united as christians ( breaking race or nationality or economic barriers,,)
We must show the Gentiles the differences as CHRISTIANS and Gentiles ,,,
That would even help a Gentile know God ,,
No nationality or racism,,,
God bless you
Amen ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿
Our God is a living God we all human beings die ,,,
This says God is alive ,,
By faith upon Him USA can be a big brother ,,,
Overseer ,can establish peace ,law and order on any corner of the world,,,
( Shouldn't shrink with in America,,)
all
we must have a pride or bond of christianity ,,blood circulations and love CHRISTIANS,,life giving style of JESUS,,
No race or continental difference ,,will help us in difficult times ,,( individual or if nation at dangers,,)
If our root is JESUS ,we can stand bold,,we can stand with hope ,( during the times of troubles,,)
Because human strength is tested failure,,,
People or country or nationality or racism or languages or our wisdom will no way help us (Work out ,,),( it will work out for a little while,,),
Only Jesus or our region will help us ,,
This is our hope that God rose Jesus from dead,,.so that he could help us in this world when all our possible human efforts fail,,,
We are a people dependant on God,,,
Other items be one failure,,
For example ,,
When my dad became sick ,,the senior doctor and his junior doctors mocked my dad ,, saying if they treat a problems ,,an another problem arise ( the mocked and laughing infront of my dad that they gave medicine for diarrhea my dad got some other problem like headache or fever,,,)
So after JESUS and faith upon Him helped my dad live an another 30 years ,,
Own father in law threw food box carrier ( silver food box carrier) saying that he didn't like it bringing food to his son in law ,,( my dad was in hospital with fear and distress about life battle,death or life ,)
No relationships have any comfort words or physical help or money help ,,
But faith upon Jesus saved him and even saved his physical life ,,as well ,as knowledge of God,,ðŸ‘ÂðŸ‘ÂðŸ‘Â
God bless Joe Biden ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿,,ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿ðŸ™ÂðŸÂ¿
Hes right
Is it the fbi? Seems like a pattern, many of these shooters are known to the fbi, they’re seeing a therapist and on mind altering drugs. Shootings always pick up, to push thru gun control legislation. Like the Smollett lynching hoax, happened right when antilynching legislation was going thru. These people are sick!
Then let every household or everyone have nuclear weapon as clearly based on this person's logic, nuclear weapon is not the problem.
its not the Chocolate Chip cookies fault that i ate It either… but it IS the cookies fault, IT WAS TOO AVAILABLE ,NOT to devour!!
The reason hand grenades are illegal is that even a moronic Republican knows that's a bad idea.
Propaganda
Nothing but a Drill learn Gematria
Staged Event for the sheeple
Mass shootings are Staged Events
It's quite literally the gun that's making people make these decisions, you worthless dumbass.
Screw him and his religious believes. As a politician he should not even bring it up. Soon as a politician brings up religion for a political issue they should be laughed out of office. No it is not the gun making decisions for people but making it easy for a psycho with a record to get a gun gives them the opportunity to decide to use it.
Before the Silent Revolution of the 50s and 60s, Quebec was the most conservative and religious place on earth for 50 yrs. They called it the dark ages! Now churches are crumbling everywhere all around me. Bless me father for I haven't been to church in 37 yrs!
Weapons of Dumbass Distraction
JoDee Heist-Canada banned handguns, also banned 1,500 types of assault weapons. Violence in Canada usually means fists and feet. So damned dumb God, not guns. Commie/atheist here laughs at hate preachers who call for the execution of Dems, gays, that you Christians claim to have a monopoly on morality on ethics is ridiculous!
In most countries in Europe, you can drink at 18 and yet you cannot buy an AR-15. If you’re a hunter, you use gun hunting weapons, not semi automatic weapons….
There is no normal reason or utilitarian justification to have semi automatic weapons if you are not in the Armed Forces
Strange priorities
Yes it’s not guns that makes bad people do bad things, but it facilitates the senseless killing in an instance, if he had a knife it would’ve taken major effort and time to kill 19 children and 2 adults. But an automatic assault riffle could take 21 souls in less than an hour with close to no effort
Edit:
I’m not an American idk or understand why guy ownership is more important than children’s lives, but why is an 18 yo able to by a riffle? There should at least a law that only allows handguns that need effort to fire 3 consecutive bullets or something! Why is anyone able to buy something that could take so many lives in an instant?!
America is a first world country with a third world country’s laws and leaders
You are not listening!!! You can have your guns just ban the AR gun!!! What is so hard to comprehend??
