👁️ BLACK AMERICANS NEED TO separate from WHITE PEOPLE..... Look around they Got the world hostage

[@brandonayong5823]

And I just wanted to touch on charlamagne question " How do you légaliste hate?" Well a big reason why the world globally and America in particular is failing in my opinion is that they still don't want to understand that the gun law conversation and the mental health conversation goes hand in hand. You cannot légaliste hate therefore you need Law actions that will not be here to help disturbed people to heal because it's not their place but they will be here to make sure that those disturbed people don't get their hands on any weapons. That's the radical. Straight forward approach we need to have and then you need the mental health action but not the one after the fact. Those people can easily be analysed long before they do anything but organisations around them usually notice it but don't bother to act on it same with parents and I think that's when the mental health really must come into play. At the early stage where things can still be turned around. It also needs to be a conversation have in school very early on. I hate to say this but let's be real. It could be anyone of us taking a bad turn depending on circumstances. So those actions need to be have globally early on.

[@jb4626]

My girlfriend used to live in Uvalde. I know many ppl from there because of her. I go through and stop in that town often. It really is a small, quiet little town. As the facts come out, I may even learn I know someone directly impacted by this tragedy. Eventually one of these stories is going to be too close for comfort for many of you. Stay safe out there and fight for what’s right.

[@pearsonphd1711]

You are absolutely right in your statement about these stories eventually being too close for comfort! My aunt was good friends with Pearl Young, one of the victims of the Buffalo shooting.

[@HH-gv8mx]

There are more guns in this country than there are people. You need a license to drive a car car in the US, you have to be 21 years old to buy alcohol, but in Texas you don’t need a license as an 18 year old mental patient to walk in and buy an assault rifle. Governor Abbet and Ted Cruz of Texas made these laws possible to shoot our children. Other countries in the world do not have this problem. First of all we need to get rid of Greg Abbott of Texas and sending her a time cruise who are criminals. And we need to get rid of a sore rifles! And make it tougher to buy guns in this country.

[@janemiller8658]

I thought that I was doing something good by talking to my son after tragedies like this. I would sit him down and talk to him about what to do & fight or flight scenarios. I ended up giving him anxiety, he’s currently in therapy. My 13 year old son is in therapy. This isn’t okay, IT’S NOT OKAY! We don’t need thoughts & prayers. This isn’t a democrat or republican issue, its a humanity issue. People care more about guns then the innocent lives lost. As a mother who has had to bury her child before he even got a chance to become a teenager my heart is broken! Losing a child is a pain that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy…at time the pain is unbearable, it physically hurts to exist without him. These parents sent their kids to school and yesterday and are planning funerals today…My God! I’ve shed tears for people I don’t know.When you lose a child, you not only mourn what once was, you also mourn what will never be…..No graduations, no proms, no drivers license, no first day of college, no wedding day, no grandkids….NOTHING! This is unacceptable and I’m sick & tired of being sick and phucking tired!

[@donniebrasco1364]

There would be more deaths and anarchy if there was gun control. You fail to realize that criminals are afraid to rob your house because guns are legal. They're afraid they'll be blown to smithereens if they break into your property. Mass shooting is once in a blue moon. Usually occurs because a dumbed down public is influenced by even dumber social media. So they aren't aware of their common senses. A person who lives more frequently in the world and less on social media would be able to recognize warning signs. Instead of act dumb and act like a product of social media which is dumb as door knob and superficial. A person who is in tune with everything can see that way before it happens. First thing they gotta recognize is the person stressed? What is the person's facial expressions? Is a person wearing heavy clothing to hide something? Like a rifle or something? If you look at warning signs you can see a situation like that arise before it does.

The answer to Charlamagne's comment is Dr. King's quote: “Morality cannot be legislated, but behavior can be regulated. Judicial decrees may not change the heart, but they can restrain the heartless." Just because we cannot eradicate hate with laws doesn't mean that we can't pass some laws and restrictions that prohibit those hateful people from easily purchasing assault weapons.

@@BonesDMS4life that's not true at all. Anybody can access a gun in texas. They don't do background checks for mental illness, and even if they did, they could just lie. I've tried to take my own life several times before and when I thought about getting a gun recently for safety I just lied and told the person who interviewed me that I've never had any thoughts of self-harm, and they were ready to give me a CPL. By the way I don't even live in texas, I live in Washington state which has some of the strictest gun laws in the country. If I wanted to I could have finished my CPL application, go out and purchase a gun and take my own life in less than 3 months. It's not like I haven't been thinking about it for the past 7 years.

American is spiritual Sodom (lbgtq ) Egypt (enslavement of the israelites aka negros and natives) and Babylon (all nationalities live here and speak mainly 1 language) our ancestors call these Caucasians that bought and sold us our enemies. Moses told our ancestors when we fled egypt follow these rules and be blessed, break these rules and we will be cursed...one of the curse is so on point u can't be blind to it Deuteronomy 28 68 and the lord shall bring they into egypt (slavey) again with ships (transatlantic slave trade), by the way whereof I spake unto thee (same way Moses said) thou shalt see it (our original home lands )no more again: and there (when we get off the ships) yo shall be sold unto your "enemies" for bond men and bond woman (slave man and slave woman) this is clearly not talking about the people who claim to be Jewish....this whole book is about us and the payback we gonna get . This Bible is a world court document account of all the crimes done to our people by every other nation. If the prophecies are real from the times of Moses and the transatlantic slave trade is the proof then I have to say I'm happy to know we are the chosen and these devils are almost done, there time is almost up and you can see all their nations crumbling .

[@erikac3601]

Imagine if every school had enough counselors for all their students and it was required to visit them at least once a year to see how you’re feeling? because we know that half of these kids don’t have that at home so let’s give it to them at school and then we can keep our checks and balances on each other so that if you do have mental health issues, you’re not able to go buy a gun. Enough is enough. Provide us with healthcare or mental health services, something!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MidnightSportster]

The problem is that we are such a gun happy country that you can't reel it back in and thats what people love to run to, stricter gun laws, more gun control, etc. And at this point there are just too many "bad guys" with guns and access to guns is just too easy outside of the lines of the law. You can make it harder to get guns, and you punish the people that want to legally obtain a gun, but most people that want to do bad things arent going to do it with a gun they buy legally (most times). if a bad guy wants a gun, he will get one. What we need is more good guys with guns, as much as people dont want to say that. Buy a gun, take classes, hit the range, CARRY YOUR GUN, protect yourself, your family, and others.
