This is really bizarre. Why would the brother be posting on facebook that it wasn't him when his entire family was just killed? Surely he would've been able to put the pieces together since it happened at the school his mother taught at.
And the media named the wrong brother as the shooter...Lovely.
I can expect to give the teacher the ability to defend themselves if they so choose to. After 9/11, there was the ability for pilots to defend themselves.
Dozens aren't required. Only one, in the hands of someone with training.
This is why no one ever goes into police stations and starts shooting. Instead, they pick places where guns are illegal and/or discouraged.

I'll repeat it again.
What is the purpose of semi-auto weapons? Home defence? No, they're a very poor choice for that. You'll probably just kill your own kids or the neighbors. Hunting? Haha.
The sole purpose of these weapons is killing people.
Cars are designed to get people from point A to B. They are a critical part of the global economy.
To compare the two is farcical.
But your logic we should allow citizens to purchase anything they want. Car full of C4 explosives? Hey, go for it. $400 from walmart.

Any teacher with a concealed carry permit should be allowed to carry at schoolI don't think you understood the scenario I assumed was being proposed. It was not a well-trained single teacher being allowed in their one instance to carry firearms. In any case how is what you wrote any more reasonable than having on-site police officers (which would also be completely ineffective but certainly less ridiculous)?
Seems you would be the fucking idiot...that was about the NFA in relation to the 2nd, not what the implicit meaning of the 2nd was...get a clue before you go spouting off about shit you know little about, get your head out of Sarah Brady's ass and learn something for onceWTF are you talking about? There were quite a few before that.

Again, you are a fucking idiot.
For god's sake, stop the car debate already. I've refuted comparisons with cars a billion times.
- Cars and guns are built for different purposes.
- Car deaths and gun deaths are for different reasons. How many people are murdered with guns? How many people are murdered with cars?
- There are tons of laws, safety devices, and continuous improvements being made to cars so they're safer, and drivers are less likely to kill others accidentally. Yet any change with guns is viewed as anti-gun.
Where/when did this happen? I'm genuinely curious since I've never heard of such a situation before...I know some idiot cops shot like 9 bystanders in New York a couple weeks backUntrained people using weapons in crowded, chaotic, highly stressful situations have a very real and well-proven tendency to do a LOT of damage to innocent bystanders.

how's that gun ban working out in mexico?
So an arms race now? What's next rocket launchers? Are we fucking Somalia now..

1) Yes, people have a right to defend themselves.
2) Untrained people using weapons in crowded, chaotic, highly stressful situations have a very real and well-proven tendency to do a LOT of damage to innocent bystanders. The very first time some psycho opened fire in an armed school environment a dozen teachers would return fire and might kill 50 kids.
I'm not an anti-gun nut, but I am realistic enough to understand that simply arming teachers and hoping they can take out a gunman without inflicting a lot of friendly-fire casualties is pie-in-the-sky delusion.
With the way things are going in this country, it literally could happen.
All it takes is for the economy to finally flat crash or Obummer to piss off the wrong people. approximately 49.9 percent are not happy with the country as a whole right now.
And things are not getting better they are getting worse.
I know quite a few Texans down here buying guns and ammo now after the election as either way bad change is coming for freedoms.
Gun Shows are packed every single weekend when they come through.
and I sure would love to see the statistics since the election for purchases and ammo purchases. I'm betting in states like Texas they are at an all time high.
CVSiN:
You are really not doing the pro-gun crowd any favors with your arguments.
there is no fucking way there is another Ryan Lanza from Hoboken originally from Newtown Ct. That FB shit has to be shooped.Not sure if serious...
The facebook guy was someone else entirely who happens to have the same name as one of the brothers.
Translation: I'm not happy that the democratic process in this country because I don't always get what I want, so we need an armed revolution that kills people.

Fox News is still posting pics of the apparently wrong Ryan Lanza
