THE Gun Thread

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Well, adults with guns can CLEARLY stop teens with guns - we know because it happens (of course, it tends to happen only after the body count is unconscionably high).

Since you’re clearly done guessing, consider this:

Jimmy goes to the school armed with just a pistol. He kills one person and takes a roomful of kids hostages (in the room where the gun safe is). He demands that the gun safe be opened or he’ll kill one child every five minutes.

I can only see two ways this plays out:

1. Someone at the school, hoping against hope to save the lives of the hostages, opens the safe. Jimmy now has an AR-15 along with extra magazines and a good supply of ammo. Carnage ensues.

2. No one accedes to Jimmy’s demand and he makes good on his threat to start killing children. The cops arrive after Jimmy has killed several kids and shoot and kill Jimmy (who is now out of ammo).

Now, explain to me how an AR-15 locked in a safe was any help to the police.

You watch too much TV.

Your whole scenario is asinine.

If the kid has a pistol - he doesn' t NEED a rifle to kill kids - he can just start merrilly whacking kids at his leisure because he' s the only one with a gun. What part of that escapes you?

Do you think an AR15 will get a 12 year old deader than a Glock 19????

You are playing Mystery Theater 2022 - making up goofy scenarios that back your ideas.

So what is going to happen if a monster comes in with ANYTHING - pistol- shotgun - rifle - peepee inducing scary black rifle -- and starts shooting kids in classrooms and NOBODY ELSE had a weapon or has access to a weapon???

Gee - that's what USUALLY happens.... And the usual result is a bunch of dead kids --- because YOU WERE UNCOMFORTABLE with the idea of staff( trained even) having access to a weapon.....


Perhaps we need more "Gun Free Zone" signs...

That always works.....

Jaysus, it's like you don't even read the things I post. In that scenario, the shooter IS the only one with access to a firearm.

Plenty of school shooters didn't 'shoot their way in' - they brought a gun to school in a backpack.

Again: What use is an AR15 in a school safe if the shooter denies access to it?
