I live a couple miles outside Colorado Springs city limits. I've lived in the area since transferring here for a job in the 80's. The Christian right invaded this town about that same time (Focus on the Family etc), and they have pretty much ruined it. I say this as someone who attends a Christian church and has done so for 70+ years. These people are not Christian. They're all about condemning others and worrying about their gun rights. I was on Nextdoor yesterday and saw this topic being discussed - mostly in a "this is horrible" vein. But some people posted that the shooter was doing God's work. These are horrible people, and they have a loud voice here. I believe it's the only large city in Colorado who still voted for Trump in 2020. Other than one missing fact, you pretty much got it right in your news story. The missing fact or assertion is that the police did try to remove his gun, but his family were not cooperative. I don't know if this is true, or if it's even an excuse if true. Facts are sketchy at the moment.

Please show me your info about either party closing down mental institutions, other than Reagan did to federally funded mental health facilities in the 80's. You're completely blowing smoke because you value gun rights over the rights of innocent civilians to live their lives. This has nothing to do with telepathic police officers. This sheriff ignored the state-mandated red flag law and these people paid with their lives. That's the bottom line. The other bottom line is you could care less about protecting your communities.

@@joyflavell7385 "Federal law requires background checks through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) for guns sold through licensed firearm dealers, which account for 78% of all gun sales in the United States. Background checks include criminal and mental health history, dishonorable military discharges, unlawful immigration status, an open warrant, a documented history of domestic violence, and drug use". "Proposals for UNIVERSAL background checks would require almost ALL firearms transactions in the United States to be recorded and go through the same National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), thus closing what is sometimes called the private sale exemption for unlicensed "dealers". Universal background checks are not required by U.S. federal law, but at least 22 states and the District of Columbia currently require background checks for at least SOME private sales of firearms" . "To ascertain whether an applicant should be disqualified from owning a gun, the FBI draws from three databases. The Interstate Identification Index is a giant repository of criminal convictions used by an array of law enforcement agencies for a range of purposes. The National Crime Information Center, or NCIC, is an “electronic clearinghouse” of other criminal justice records, including protective orders and disposition records. Finally, there’s the NICS Indices, which include records contributed by federal, state and local agencies specifically flagging individuals prohibited from buying a gun". IMPORTANT AND RELEVANT .. "Mental health records present a particular problem. The only way a history of involuntary psychiatric confinement or a judge’s ruling of mental incompetence will show up on a gun background check is if a state makes the effort to submit it to the NICS Indices - those records aren’t meant for the other two databases. The Virginia Tech massacre, committed by a gunman whose history of severe psychiatric illness had not been forwarded to the FBI, exposed shortfalls in mental health reporting to the NICS Indices. Several states have since made progress in correcting those omissions, but many others have remained resistant, citing PRIVACY LAWS". "In addition, the bar for denying someone on mental health grounds is very high, requiring that a person has been declared unsound or has been involuntarily confined to a psychiatric institution by a court or other authority. Fewer than 43,000 people have been denied under this criterion over the last 21 years".

And so, Senator, what’s the solution for protecting this community in your state?” Hickenlooper answered, “I think that we have to set a new and higher level for red flag laws, where you have to have some institutional framework by which the community can - if someone has clearly demonstrated that they are liable to go off the rails…we have to make sure people like that don’t have access to guns, and if they do have guns, we take them away.”

There are sides, there is a winner and a looser, it is one against another. And if it is referred to as advocacy, I think it is less combative. I have thought that about elections.

I hope the young ladies coming of age look to you as a model to emulate. Your confidence and conviction is EXACTLY what our society needs at this moment. If only we could clone you 1,000 times and have y’all all over the most powerful positions of our government!!! Lol The FEDERAL GOVERNMENT has been negligent in their handling of the hate, violence, radicalization of our most vulnerable citizens, and the access to weapons of war. These 2nd amendment sanctuaries need to be abolished immediately.

The homophobes-They hate themselves for their "shameful" homoerotic desires. They project that self-loathing onto those of us who accept and love ourselves for who we realy are. They are reacting to their own self-loathing, shame, guilt, and existensial seeming fear.-weezi-🙏💖🙏💜🙏🤠 "When we hate someone, we hate something in them that is also in us.

I live in Canada but I feel the homophobia online everywhere. Americans should ask themselves, like the Nazis, it may start with us but where does it go to next? and after that? Might be you one day. As a Canadian or any non American will say, enact some god damned gun laws! We don't have these things outside america!

All the police making statements about how awful the incident was at press conferences is disingenuous at best and flat out lies at worst. Shame on that police community. They have laws in place that could have prevented that savage slaughter. Disgusting. I hope they get sued to within an inch of their lives for their callous disregard of the law and citizen's lives and wellbeing.

The problem of these “red flag” laws is that they are written without the option of due process. This is why local law enforcement is reluctant to enforce them.

[@someguy2135]

So the rights of those who fall under the red flag laws to own weapons deisgned for war is more important than protecting the lives of innocent people?
