thoughts and prayers always means I'll think about it briefly but do nothing to change it.

He got one thing right: thoughts and prayers don’t work to stop this stuff.

Jacob Frey is one of the worst mayors in America. A police force that’s understaffed, overwhelmed and overextended. A memorial district stuck in limbo (5 years)and a restaurant scene hemorrhaging long standing businesses all over the lack of rebuilding or progress after George Floyd

Frey shed more tears for Floyd than he is for those children who were murdered by a Transsexual.

Another pandering gun control nut who makes excuses for the mentally ill when they kill our children. And the CULT eats it up. Disgusting PIG!

Guns don’t kill people. A ‘well-regulated militia’ reinterpreted as GUNS FOR EVERYONE kills people.

Well the time to do something was yesterday or the day before that or last week or last month, but the fools with their need for guns in order to feel safe, always seem to prevail and undoubtedly will, again, because you just can't #FixStupid.

One thing I know, if someone pulls a weapon on me when I'm with my family, I've got a fighting chance. In the same situation you get to watch your spouse and kids die in front of you. Good luck with that.🤡

? Who has ever pulled a weapon on you when you were with your family? How many times in your life has someone pulled a weapon on you and what were the circumstances?

Not the mic drop you thing it was. How many times have you needed your seat belt? How many times have you needed a fire extinguisher, how many times have the police or fire department been to your house. If the answer to any of those is none, then why do we need them?? I carry a gun "IN CASE". 🤡

😂Hmmm, how many people do you know that have been killed by their seatbelt or their fire extinguisher or the fire department showing up to their house? Can you guess why I didn't say police?😮

Do you think the country has done enough to mitigate mass shootings? Do you think we should put armed drones up over schools (FlorDAH suggestion) to prevent a person with a gun from doing harm? Do you think we just need to arm every person in the country to cut down on the number of mass shootings?

Do you think 2nd Amendment advocates should be doing a lot more to find solutions to the mass shooting problem that this country has, instead of just offering silence, thoughts and prayers and more guns as a solution?

Is there really a solution to stopping someone from killing others, especially if that someone is willing to kill themselves?

Move on pissant. You are not interested in finding solutions. You are part of the problem.

Still nothing? If you asked a lawmaker and their answer to the question “what are you going to do to end mass shootings” and their answer was “we’re actually finding solutions to the problem” you wouldn’t want to ask for specifics?

Jk @zag08lait.bsky.social

Of course I would, just like I'd want to see multiple solutions. What works in other countries, what didn't work, which states and municipalities are see a reduction because of policies. Are you really this dumb or just not interested in anything or anyone that actually looks at the problem?

Jk @zag08lait.bsky.social

I want to see what the commonalities between mass shootings, besides just the label of 'crazy person', are, don't you? As far as solutions, I think I can definitely say 'Thought and Prayers' does not work, so what else do you have?

Are you a politician? You wrote a lot but didn’t actually answer the question about what should we do. List the specifics that you think the govt should do. What, specifically, are the multiple solutions?

Batty McKickenpunch @redwavemonkey.bsky.social

I guess we’re back to square one. I asked you what you thought should be done and you came back with more questions. If you can’t give your suggestion for what should be done, don’t get angry that others aren’t coming up with a solution.

“Actually finding solutions” is was your answer to “what solutions should we find?” If you asked a law maker and their answer was “actually finding a solution” wouldn’t you ask follow up questions to specifically find out what the solutions were?
