A bipartisan group of senators is trying to find a compromise on gun legislation. That's after Democrats’ first attempt at responding to the back-to-back mass shootings in Buffalo and Uvalde, Texas, failed Thursday in the Senate.

I feel so bad for those children. I hope they have family members that can step up and support them
Honestly, I don't know how those kids grow up with any faith in this world

If you dont think politicians are full of each please explain ....
They have gone as far as taking the rights from woman to "protect" a fetus (no abortions), but when that fetus is born they turn around and tell those women: "you want help get a job, no one told you to have kids" and when the kids are older and in schools they say **** the kids .... people need their guns.
Crazy, aint it?
They protect fetus until they are born just to sit back rolling in dough while those same kids are being slaughtered.
Seems like they see us just as others see poultry farms .. PROFIT.

They don’t care, they just get money to say what they say and get their extreme religious base on board.

A lot of these small towns have damn near small armies for police forces. They make people feel safe (certain people anyways) and it gives others job security for pretty much life. A shame a lot of them are worthless when needed for anything serious.

To be honest any decent human being seeing and knowing kids are getting slaughtered would jump in to help.
Not sure why cops stand back waiting for backup.

Parents really buying bulletproof backpacks. Don’t really see the point.

Why? You run from bullets and the most likely area they’ll hit is your back.

All the cops I know were bullied and picked on in school or the super conservative stand up for the flag types.
They didn't have heart then and giving them a badge and a gun isn't going to give it to them later in life.

All this lock the doors ********. Do people realize that not all schools are indoors? I am from LA and never attended an indoors school. Only thing protecting those kids is a gate surrounding the school that can also be easily climbed(hopped).

it's corruption and empowering the NRA to dictate the gov't.
It's a deeper problem than gun availability. I just can't peel back all the layers.

What?
I never heard of a school that wasnt indoors. You had classes just out in an open area?

Why even have a SWAT team if they’re not going to use it in THIS circumstance?

Uvalde SWAT Team Bragged About Training at Schools on Facebook
Uvalde SWAT visited schools to "familiarize themselves with layouts of our local schools and businesses."

Nah. He's talking about schools that aren't like NY schools that are all contained in one big building where you can more easily control ingress and egress. Schools like we have in California that are surrounded by land/playgrounds/etc. so you cant as easily control who comes and goes because its usually just a small chain link fence. Classes are still indoors.

No...lol.. We have classrooms. But you have to walk outside to go from classroom to classroom. You aren't inside of a large building full of classrooms.
