Sad.

America is really gross. Just overflowing with people who are obsessed with killing other people. It's nuts.

America is stupid

In 1996 the UK had a school massacre. Gun laws were tightened up. There hasn't been a mass shooting since. That's 25 years.

There is nothing -- literally nothing -- the NRA and gun lobbyists love more the mass shootings. The more victims, the better. Innocent people being slaughtered is great for their bottom line.

Things a terrorist organization would say.

I'd like to see a statistic of how many times a privately own gun has saved a life and how many times it has taken one away senselessly.

Many ways to curb gun violence. One which doesn't seem to step on any Constitutional rights is ammunition. A scaled 'Citizens Safety Tax' with assault weapon munitions the most expensive could slow random use + flag large sales. Income Tax relief could help reduce the burden.

Well, murder is already illegal but that didn't stop the killer. He broke about a dozen laws, nope still didn't stop him. This is virtue signaling at its finest!

Guns don't kill crazy people do. Other than worry about mental illness, the govt must attack the source of the problem - firearm manufacturers. They make killing possible. Hold them liable if their guns are used in crimes or mass murder like the cases of cigarettes and opioids.

What the hell is it with guns anyway? Are there more guns than people? Sure seems like it!

If America and its police are really as oppressive, racist, and murderous as people on the left claim, why do the left also want to disarm American citizens, including black people?

CNN has helped sell more guns in America than any other organization! keeps pushing the gun ban rhetoric and causes panic purchases. Thanks for helping keep us safe CNN!

Colorado has some of the strictest gun control measures in the country ... criminals don't follow laws folks.
