Don't take our guns but charge the parents that a good way to do it
Leftist media needs to shut up about gun control permanently. They're the ones who helped install the Biden regime into office. Biden, who gave 80+ billion dollars worth of guns and weaponry to terrorists.
No one wants to take your guns.
Gun control is using both hands 🙌
It’s a necessity against Brandon criminals World of humans killing humans
Bruh even Karl Marx extremely pro gun;
“Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary.â€ÂÂ
These terrible crimes easily occur in 'gun free zones' such as schools. Believing law-abiding citizens should not be allowed to carry hand guns is a terrible idea because criminals and crazy people can run amok doing whatever mayhem they want to commit. Disallowing law-abiding citizens, including school staff, to carry is in fact that the cause of much of the problem. The rise in gun sales is a direct result of Democrat policies of de-funding the police and lax or absent prosecution of criminals which allows them to endanger everyone. Evey law-abiding citizen should absolutely be permitted to carry a concealed hand gun. If that were to happen you would see violent crime reduce dramatically. Many mass shootings have been stopped in there tracks because of armed citizens. That and voting Democrats out of power is what is needed now more than ever. The very last thing that is needed to take away citizens 2nd Amendment rights.

Every act of violence that involves the use of a firearm have something else in common. These acts were the result of a conscious decision to act on homicidal intentions. Both Parkland, and the Michigan shootings could have been prevented had the schools, and local law enforcement not ignored the warning signs. The lawlessness of a few individuals should NEVER negate the lawfulness of the majority!
Here is a prime example of how evil states can be with their gun laws!
Caetano v. Massachusetts, 577 U.S. (2016), was a case in which the Supreme Court of the United States unanimously vacated a Massachusetts conviction of a woman who carried a stun gun for self-defense.
Jaime Caetano was reported to have been hospitalized and "in fear for her life" after an altercation with her "abusive" boyfriend. After obtaining several restraining orders that "proved futile", Caetano accepted a stun gun from a friend for self-defense. One night, when her ex-boyfriend confronted her outside her work and threatened her, she displayed the stun gun and successfully avoided an altercation. However, when police discovered that she was in possession of the stun gun, she was arrested, tried, and convicted under a Massachusetts law that outlawed the possession of stun guns.
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court had said her stun gun was "not the type of weapon that is eligible for Second Amendment protection†because it was “not in common use at the time of [the Second Amendment’s] enactment.†Caetano then appealed the Massachusetts court's ruling to the Supreme Court of the United States.
In a per curiam decision, the Supreme Court vacated the ruling of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court. Citing District of Columbia v. Heller and McDonald v. City of Chicago, the Court began its opinion by stating that "the Second Amendment extends, prima facie, to all instruments that constitute bearable arms, even those that were not in existence at the time of the founding" and that "the Second Amendment right is fully applicable to the States". The term "bearable arms" was defined in District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008) and includes any "“weapon of offence†or “thing that a man wears for his defence, or takes into his hands,†that is “carried] . . . for the purpose of offensive or defensive action.†554 U. S., at 581, 584
The Court then identified three reasons why the Massachusetts court's opinion contradicted prior rulings by the United States Supreme Court. First, the Massachusetts court said that stun guns could be banned because they "were not in common use at the time of the Second Amendment’s enactment", but the Supreme Court noted that this contradicted Heller's conclusion that Second Amendment protects "arms … that were not in existence at the time of the foundingâ€ÂÂ. Second, the Massachusetts court said that stun guns were "dangerous per se at common law and unusual" because they were "a thoroughly modern invention", but the Supreme Court held that this was also inconsistent with Heller. Third, the Massachusetts court said that stun guns could be banned because they were not "readily adaptable to use in the military", but the Supreme Court held that Heller rejected the argument that "only those weapons useful in warfare" were protected by the Second Amendment.
Justice Samuel Alito wrote an opinion concurring in the judgment, in which he was joined by Justice Clarence Thomas. Justice Alito characterized the per curiam decision as "grudging" and wrote that "the reasoning of the Massachusetts court poses a grave threat to the fundamental right of self-defense". He provided an analysis of why he believed that the Massachusetts court's ruling contradicted Heller and other cases interpreting the Second Amendment. After concluding that the Massachusetts stun gun ban violates the Second Amendment, Justice Alito wrote: "if the fundamental right of self-defense does not protect Caetano, then the safety of all Americans is left to the mercy of state authorities who may be more concerned about disarming people than about keeping them safe".
We know why YouTube no longer shows downvotes! Leftist bullshit propaganda like this gets 2x to 3x more downvotes than upvotes!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gun control, when you manage recoil properly for a follow up shot.
I'm going to need them to show their work on this 654 mass shooting because i just don't trust them. every time there is a mass shooting they spend weeks talking about it. I don't remember them spend much time on any where near even 100 mass shooting
Liberals: Destroy Christian America, teach kids there is no truth, everything is relative, we’re just evolved monkeys.
Also Liberals: Why are our kids nihilistic psychopaths who don’t value human life reeeeeeeeeeeee ?
God be with these parents!! We need these Dem mayors to start up holding the law!! Arrest attackers no more free bail revolving criminal door!!
Gun control, takes guns away from the innocent gives guns to criminals!!
SO WHEN THESE THUG KIDS HERE IN CHICAGO SHOOT SOMEONE CAN WE HOLD THE PARENTS ACCOUNTABLE AS WELL ! JUST AN OLD BLACK MAN WONDERING
Another paid, professional victim trotted out by the media whose tragedy does not permit him to infringe on the fundamental rights of citizens who have committed no crime. Funny how we NEVER hear from Andrew Pollack, a Parkland Dad who does not think gun control prevents any school shootings. BTW the geriatric, dementia ridden, fool in the White House has no authority to effect the 2nd Amendment.
Brandon can't remember what he had for breakfast. He should have tried to get an appointment with his puppeteer.
These kids shouldnt be scared for their lives to go to school!!!! Sorry for
everyone of those parents and students who lost their kids and friends!!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
Good they deserve some serious jail time
Fighting for gun control…. let us open carry. That way we can shoot back at these idiots.
Gun control is using two hands and stopping the threat.
I'll keep my guns thanks
30,000 of those 40,000 (75%) are self-inflicted suicides, and 99% of the rest are gang related hits…lies, damned lies, and statistics…
COME AND TAKE IT…. ITS NOT A GUN PROBLEM ITS A PEOPLE PROBLEM
Did the gun load itself and shoot. No its a people problem. It could have been prevented but no. Talk about that Media propagandists!!!
50k dislikes. Wow! No wonder. 👎
The main culprit is 2nd amendment right.
All the shootings are by students. What they hell are they doing in there to make the kids that angry with the world?? Teaching liberal ideology perhaps?
Damn 41,ooo
Cowards want gun control and the government to be daddy. We have it in my country and the men have been totally castrated.
Sorry my second amendment out ranks your feelings. So sorry not sorry. If you want to live in a gun control country, I hear Australia or Canada is good for that and concentration camps. 🤣
Communists can’t stand that Americans have guns.
Lets just tell criminals that killing is wrong.
That way guns, knives, fire, blunt objects, bare hands and chemicals can't be used for murder.
Just like that, I have rid the world of all murder. Thank me later.
inb4 autism, this comment is sarcasm.
Strict gun control = A defenseless commonwealth vulnerable to controlling political groups, oppressive government, and unruly mobs. These are the reasons why there is a guns and ammo shortage that has been dragging on since the 2020 chaos.
DISLIKE
There should absolutely be restrictions on assault rifle sales. Hunting rifles, shotguns and handguns will always be available in the US. There is just too much crime in the US and the US criminal justice system is a failure and releases violent criminals to commit more crime.
How about news coverage of the black SUV driver than ran over more than 60 people and then promote banning SUVs like you do relentlessly about gun control.
The fact this video has only 100 likes whilst having 5,100 views and 300 comments is telling.
Gun Control Now
Looks like the parents' defense is getting pretty crumbley.
Guns aren't the problem.
People should be allowed to own guns. Just keep them away from your children.
Only 94 likes! Thank God no one is buying this BS.
Most murderers have something in common. Let's tell those people they can't have weapons! ðŸÂµ
My guns my choice life is such love America let’s go Brandon
There are thousands of reasons why America doesn't have better gun laws. Here's a few: money from manufacturing, selling and distribution. Money from from crimes committed with guns–lawyers–law enforcement–judicial system. Presidents, Politians, law enforcement, military personnel, civilians, young and old–those intentionally targeted and innocent bystanders have all been victims of gun violence. Gun advocates claim 2nd Ammendment rights and everyone else, including animals, becomes the next potential victim.
HOW ?????? CAN ANY HUMAN BEING HONESTLY AND TRUTHFULLY !!!! COME TO THE RESULT OF AT THE END OF THE DAY ONCE THE OVERWHELMING PROOF IS….KNOWN !!!! STILL SAY , FEEL , BELIEVE THAT 👮👮👮👮👮👮 ABUSE OF FORCE , BRUTALITY , AN KILLIN OF UNARMED CITIZENS IN AMERICA COMPARED TO THE REST OF THE 🌎 !!!! IS JUST FINE !!!! OR IS ABOUT EQUAL TO THE REST OF THE 🌎…… WHO'S FOOLIN WHO
You can't even purchase a gun in the city of Chicago… Over a thousand shot and killed so far this year… We don't have a gun problem…. We have a people problem… The longer we continue to pretend the problem is about the gun… The longer the problem will persist
Never let a crisis go to waste
