They interviewed one of the students who was in the school during the shooting and she said that she wasn’t even surprised or shocked, and that she felt like something was eventually going to happen there. That’s so chilling to think about because as someone who goes to a fairly large and well known public school only about 15 minutes away from LA, I would not be shocked if something were to ever happen here. btw leave it to someone like thallen to come onto this thread to state his opinion like it’s the only one that matters and then not give any input or offer any solutions to this issue, then make some weird stereotypical comment about liberals because “look at me I’m conservative” or whatever. talk like that gets us nowhere and unfortunately it’s people like him who run this country, meaning nothing will ever change. I’m sure there are plenty of people here who would be willing to discuss solutions and possibilities since there is clearly no single solution, but I also think there are people here who just aren’t capable of that. so thallen do us all a favor and keep your promise by staying out of this thread. Thanks to those who are trying to look over the possibilities though, I don’t think a complete ban on guns will do anything but I definitely think we do need stricter regulations and standards for the purchasing and circulation of guns. I’m very much against the idea of arming teachers however, I think that is counterproductive and idk how I’d feel about showing up to school everyday knowing my teachers have weapons on them at all times. |

If you honestly think that someone who deals weed deserves the same level of punishment as a mass murderer then your morality is seriously corrupt. |

It's not about the punishment fitting the crime, it's about it fitting the morals of the punish-er. Being tally-ho for public execution shows you are no better than them. The reason they hanged outlaws in the wild west is because it was cheaper than lining them up and shooting them, and the citizens of ye olde' days didn't really take kindly to some ruffian stealing **** they absolutely needed to survive. Nowadays we have more effective means of execution, and still we reserve them for capital offenses.

I mean seriously why is our generation so damn soft that people are willing to let someone who done such a crime not get the punishment they deserve? All because apparently such methods only spread fear and terror....which is kinda the entire ****** point. Why would you not want people who could cause shootings in school and kill people not to be absolutely too terrified to do it? Are we apparently supposed to just allow school shooters feel pride in such a thing? |

I just skimmed through what Perseus wrote, I don't disagree with it. Anything brutal, including affects on their family (like North Korea) would actually work, but there's no real good solutions for open-free country like U.S. Some of you're saying the problem are people themselves. while it is true, their easy access to the guns are the actual problem. every one of us have some way or the other have issues. you can't ever satisfy us all, that's why we're going after the weapon first. |
