Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tanis143" data-source="post: 3795974" data-attributes="member: 43724">Which laws are you referring to? And explain how any of the laws would stop someone who has no criminal history, no mental health history from purchasing a firearm and causing a mass shooting? The last two we had the POS's bought their firearms legally. The biggest problem is that people don't want to look at the root cause of all these shootings. For one, as a country, we have cut almost all mental health funding and reduced places that people with mental health can get the help they need. Several of the mass shooters in the last decade have shown signs of mental health issues but nowhere for them to seek help. Most firearm violence is due to gang and criminal activity in impoverished communities, so that is a social-economical issue. If these politicians spent half as much time advocating for solutions to those problems we could wipe out most of the firearm violence that is out there. Its just like with school shootings. Instead of banning firearms and turning current law-abiding citizens into criminals overnight, we should be looking at ways to secure schools instead. But that is not what these gun grabbers want. They want an excuse to start the path of total firearm ban like they have in other countries. They have main stream politicians now calling for a total repeal of the 2nd amendment, something that would not have even dared been mention just a few years ago.</blockquote>
