Marches — no matter how big — are not a substitute for ideas. The one thing I’ve yet to hear in all the yelling is one useful, workable idea that would stop school shootings.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. Everyone is acting like they’re one magic law away from keeping bad people from obtaining one of the hundreds of millions of guns in this country. It’s like no one is taking this seriously.
What are the actual ideas proposed?
Assault weapon ban - shooter still has 10s of millions of legal semiauto rifles to choose from and hundreds of millions others.
High capacity magazine ban - absolute best case scenario (which you won’t get because there are millions of legal magazines out there) is a shooter using a bunch of 10rd mags. Yay!
More background checks - There more than 300 million guns in private hands. This does nothing to stop someone form getting one of those.
As dumb as arming teachers might seem, it’s the only thing suggested that’s even pretending to tackle the problem of mass shooters at a school.
