Ensure student voices demanding gun law changes are heard
The first journalists on the scene at the school shooting in Parkland, Fla., were there for every terrifying shot. After all, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High is their school. As a former student stormed the halls, firing an AR-15, the newspaper teacher's classroom became a refuge, sheltering 163 students and six adults during the mass shooting that killed 14 students and three faculty members.
We need to pass Laws against murder.
ReplyDeleteThat will stop the killing.... oh wait.
The young man in the photo graduated from HS in California in 2015--he is a CNN "crises actor" his last name is Hogg.
ReplyDeleteNo, no it’s not. We are past the whole “crisis” actor thing. Nice try. Go sell that shit to Alex Jone. Fucking Russian bot
DeleteTHE GUN MADE ME DO IT!!!
ReplyDelete"First, the AR-15 is not a machine-gun or an "assault weapon." The AR-15 is a semi-automatic version of the M-16, which is a machine gun. However, in Vietnam, the military found that troops with early versions of the M-16 were using fully-automatic "spray and pray" fire – and often failing to hit the enemy. So when the M-16 was redesigned in the early 1980s, its fully automatic rate of fire was reduced to three-shot bursts, forcing troops to actually aim rather than hip-fire. But any fully-automatic fire is simply not an option for the civilian AR-15.
Second, the idea that the AR-15 is some kind of horrifically powerful weapon is absurd. In its most common chambering, the 5.56 NATO, the AR-15 is actually underpowered compared to traditional American battle rifles like the M1873 "Trapdoor" in .45-70 or the M1903 Springfield in .30-06. The AR-15 is a .22-caliber centerfire. When its M-16 counterpart was introduced in Vietnam, it was derided as a "mouse gun" and a "poodle-shooter." Many troops were dismayed when their .30-caliber M-14s were replaced with the new rifle.
Indeed, the M-16 and AR-15 rifle suffered a poor reputation for a couple of decades after its introduction in Vietnam, in part because ammunition issued by the Army resulted in malfunctions and jams, causing the deaths of a number of troops during firefights with the Viet Cong.
Third, those who contend that "no one goes hunting with an assault rifle" have betrayed the fact that they are probably not hunters themselves, or, if they are hunters, they're decades out of date. The modular nature of the AR-15 makes it easily adaptable for a variety of hunts in numerous calibers. Short-barreled AR-15s in .450 Bushmaster or 7.62x39 have become the number-one choice for Southern hog-hunters, while Western prairie dog-hunters can install a 26" "varmint" barrel in .204 Ruger or .223 Remington for unparalleled long-distance accuracy. And calibers such as .223, .300 Blackout, and 6.8 SPC are perfect for Texas deer or medium-sized eastern whitetails. The AR-15 platform is so ideally suited for hunting that in 2015, Remington, the oldest maker of sporting arms in the U.S., discontinued its inferior 7400/750 series of semi-automatics after sixty years in production. The only semi-autos it manufactures for the hunting market today are AR platforms. (By the way... nobody uses a 30-round magazine to hunt; most states limit capacity to four or five rounds while hunting.)
Banning the AR-15 to stop school shooters would be like banning Boeing 757s to stop terrorist attacks after 9/11. You've never heard anyone say, "Nobody needs to fly through the air at 600 mph. Look at how many people died because of those dangerous jetliners!" Would liberal journalists, who advocate repealing the Second Amendment and banning guns, agree to a repeal of the First Amendment and impose a ban on computers, digital cameras, and video cameras because child pornographers use them? I doubt it."
It's not about GUN CONTROL. It's about PEOPLE CONTROL.
Progressive/Fascists like Mary, are rightfully concerned, that hard working, tax paying Americans won't go "Gently Into The Night" while they are being replaced by open borders immigrants who will vote Democrat.
Hey chuck, do you ever wonder why people turn the other way when they see you? Or when you start talking, people start throwing themselves out windows? You. Talk. Too. Much.
DeleteLookee @10:17, the whiney ass, tapping out more than the usual "too long/didn't read".
DeleteSo, what's your problem? You're afflicted with ADD, CCD (Chronic Crybaby Disorder), or a KCPS (Killa City Prisonpipeline System) skolar?
Chuck keeps it interesting around here. You're a lazy goof.
Is the AR15 good for hunting coons? If so, everybody should have one.
Delete^^^^ Your last statement pretty sums up almost all Democrats :)
ReplyDeleteUltra-right-wing lunatics sucking down the Alex Jones theory of everything, first off, you're illiterate. Crisis is spelled with two "I"s. And as far as justifying AR-15s and other semi-automatics for hunting, a stick of dynamite is more affective for fishing, too, by that same metric. Easy to get into a battle of wits with the intellectually unarmed.

ReplyDeleteIsn't it amazing how we progressives, the champions of anti-gun rhetoric, are praising the child killing abortions of tax funded Planned Parenthood but yet we are demanding an end to the gun violence in America.
We demand gun control after every shooting but never demand border control after every rape and murder committed by illegal aliens. We also never demand birth after every abortion. Women’s rights you know.
More people should be on antidepressants, just read the posts here, as this not only benefits our pharmaceutical companies and our psychiatrists it creates more unstable people. Remember most of the mass shootings at K-12 Schools happened after gun-free school zones were made into law and all the active shooters were on antidepressants.
We have been pushing moral and cultural disintegration for over six decades while leading the charge and standing up to blame the fallout on guns. We believe our key tactic of using repeat, repeat, repeat what we want you to believe until it’s stuck in your brain i.e. brainwashing is working.
Our man Eric Holder said it best when he said, “We have to be repetitive about this. It’s not enough to have a catchy ad on a Monday and then only do it Monday. We need to do this every day of the week, and just really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way.”
We want all of law abiding citizen’s guns because we know you will not get into the boxcars willingly.
What are you afraid of?
Fake Slie is our local propaganda bull horn and the fake main stream media is our national bullhorn.
Where are the most lives and rights lost?
These people ain't getting shit changed.
ReplyDeleteIf they are under 18 they can't vote.
If they are 18 they WON'T vote. Check out how many between 18 and 30 vote. About 18%.
They can't be bothered with the government.
It’s too late. It’s already happened. The world shifted under your feet and you didn’t even know it.
Delete^^^^^^^and you do what?
ReplyDeleteChuck speaks the truth.
ReplyDeleteAmen chuck!
ReplyDeleteWho the fuck is Snatcheeze and where does she derive the power toi stand up to anything. Fuck that phony cry baby bitch!
ReplyDeleteWhile some folks are riding the latest fad and recommending that teenagers create public policy, why not give them a try at running the "Star"?
ReplyDeleteMost of the articles read as though they're already written by the staff of a high school newspaper.
And the kids certainly couldn't do any worse at "managing" the paper.
Charity begins at home!
Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.
ReplyDeleteHow many tide pods have these kids consumed?
ReplyDelete^^^ at least as many diapers as you have shit in old man.
ReplyDelete^But, not anywhere near the number of buttboiz you're gobbling goop from and poopchute munching everyday in your BathHouse stalls!

ReplyDeleteMary Sanchez you stupid idiot, we all stand up for the student victims. Trump has sat down with them to try to get a solution what more do you want! Ever see Clinton or Obama sit down one on one with people?????
Stop being a trouble maker, I for one have had about enough of you people!
KEEP YOUR BIG ILLITERATE MOUTH SHUT OR WE WILL SHUT IT FOR YOU!
Pious religious fanatics lecture about abortion being infanticide, but if you want to cut down on abortions, support birth control. However, that goes against religious dogma from a church that has failed repeatedly to stop pedophile priests. Once they're out of the womb, they're fair game for predators protected by sanctimonious authority.
ReplyDeleteThanks, chuck, for informative post. I carried the M-14 in Basic and AIT and have never liked the M-16. There are roving gangs in Killa City doing drive-by and random killings. Last KCPD estimate was as many 3,000 people. Star has no interest in calling for taking their guns. Mary should go back to her expertise - LGBTQ issues.
ReplyDeleteI misspelled "crisis" this morning...damn....just.......damn.
ReplyDeleteGun owmers, answer me one simple thing. Why doesn't this happen in other countries? Other countries watch the same violent movies and play violent video games. Other countries are far less religious than us. Other countries have crazy people. So again, why does this only happen here? What is different? Answer the question. Don't deflect to 2nd Amendment rights or anything else. Answer the question. I genuinely want to know.
ReplyDelete5:31, we all genuinely want to know, gun owners and gun non-owners. (Switzerland for instance is gun owner paradise but mass shooting free.) If you can find the reason, we'll have the problem solved, assuming it's solvable. What's your hypothesis? Or do you just want to rant?
ReplyDeleteMary is an embarrassment to her sorority in Maryville.
ReplyDelete@2:41, Obama didn't want to turn meetings with grieving parents into a photo op.
ReplyDeleteHe met with them at the WH and in Conn. Obama also attend memorials and services, which Trump has not done. Go sell your fake history somewhere else.

Let Snopes set you all straight :
ReplyDeleteGun registration and targeted confiscations therefore played an essential role in Stalin’s genocidal activities.
When Trump takes over ..........

5:31 the real question is: If those other countries are so great why are you here bitching about this one?
ReplyDelete^^^^ way to deflect and not answer the question. It's alright, we all know you won't answer it honestly because you don't want to admit it's the guns.
