^ This is sad, but quite possible. Like elphenor, I thought the word "posturing" was a bit unkind, and hope that outrage from the left will turn into something more effective, either in legislation or at the ballot box.
We don't hear much about the Parkland kids these days, but they are still out there, I guess, along with that groundswell of opinion that wants to see tighter gun controls.

Breaking news this morning: 9 dead in Ohio shooting. The tv presenter I learned it from actually said, ".... in Dayton, Ohio. That's today, at 1 am today. That's not to be confused with yesterday's shooting...." That "not to be confused" clarification is a pretty depressing acknowledgement of what's going on this weekend. :(

Ban all guns. Give a 12 month period for people to hand in their guns and receive payment for them then melt the guns down or something. Anyone found in possession of a gun after this is committing an offence and will be prosecuted.

Gotta repeal the second amendment first.

If they start using the "Gorgon Stare" cameras in those balloons, they'll have the ability to track up to 1000 "targets" simultaneously with each balloon.


Same as always.

^ It will be if the gun-lobby politicians have the gall to roll out their usual responses:-

How that second one ever gained currency is just beyond me tbh. Why is it not the time?! Who decided that?!

I don't think repealing the 2nd amendment is going to be politically feasible anytime soon. And if they somehow forced it down the pipeline I'm afraid we could have a civil war.

I’m ready.

I tend to doubt that.
