      I think the word is "No". If the child takes "No" as "Yes", then there must be reinforcement of what "No" means.

        Here's the Wiki account of the Texas Tower shooting, 57 years ago.

        Note that the natives were laying covering fire on the tower and Whitman used hunting rifles.

            Many of the same people sending "thoughts and prayers" say there is nothing we can do.

            Nice of them to admit thoughts and prayers accomplish nothing.

              I seriously think every NRA executive and lobbyist should be locked up in gitmo for radicalizing half the white males in this country.

                I'd be okay with that.

                        What we should do is arm teachers and have cops in every school. That'll solve the problem.

                          Again: attitudes towards guns. I NEVER would have thought to grab a gun at that age. Nope. No way.

                              But it's the gun's fault.

                              Mental health checks.
                              Close the loopholes.

                              I'd be open to owner-only firing options on weapons.
                              Definitely open to taking away owners' right to own if they mess up.

                              And again, "BANZ THE GUNZ" is not an option. It's not feasible at this point in time without a major military operation, which would probably unleash a massive counter-resistence, and well, it wouldn't be good.

                                Um it is in part the guns fault. He doesn't kill as many people (or maybe anyone) without the gun.

                                Ignoring the tool used is as foolish as ONLY blaming it. There is no need for people to have AR-15s and the like. It's more than closing loopholes to solve this stuff.

                                How people can continue to ignore the obvious is beyond me.
