The video game argument when it comes to mass shooting is so weak. Kids all over the world have access to these games, yet they don't shoot up people at the same rate.

Almost as weak as the gun argument. People all over the America have access to those guns, yet they don't shoot up schools.

Im disappointed in your response man


I expected more ......


Also love the debate from everyone
 
Again, the Right is stripping away funding that makes getting a proper education impossible. Supposed to be able to bolster police forces at a school? On what budget? Plus, NYC is an entirely different beast. Of course this city has a higher need for security. You literally can't compare NY to any other city in the U.S., especially in a post-9/11 world.

Tons of schools in urban areas in the south have metal detectors and armed security guards. The money isn't the issue for these suburban mostly-white schools. They just don't think these types of things "happen in their neighborhoods." When they do.
 
You realize there was an armed cop or two at Parkland, right? Officer Billy ain't stopping the nut job who wants to walk in with an AR-15 and let off rounds on the student body. You have to have slightly more sense than this.

This is factually incorrect

Again bid dawg, you struggle to comprehend basic probability, so of course you don't understand the gun regulation debate.

Your just being your usual obtuse trolling self.

But surprisingly, this time I don't like you are trolling. Just ignorant of rudimentary probability. You ignoring "at the same rate" kinda gives that away
 
there's armed Police in NYC schools many with metal detectors..works well, whats da problem?

More schools with more guns? Sounds like regression.

You would think the aim over the years would have been to reach a point where armed guards and metal detectors weren't needed in any schools.

The gun debate is a dumb one. It always is. People get highly-emotional after tragedies and call for reform that wouldn't change the events. I understand the drive to react that way. It is horrible that the scumbag did this. But AR-15-style gun bans, or age requirements, or bump stocks, etc... ain't changing the outcome. That is the unfortunate reality. The Charleston shooter used a regular handgun and shot 9. The rifle the parkland student used was semi-automatic. It was still as fast as you can pull the trigger, just like a handgun. At most, the accuracy would have been better if he was a trained shooter. Sadly a lot of people that chime in on the gun debate know nothing about guns.
 
Violent videogames face very little controversy here but not once have I ever heard of a school shooting here. A big stabbing massacre in a kindergarten yes but that's it. Our most notorious mass shooting outside of the jihadist terror attacks is a guy shooting 3 people with a shotgun in Antwerp, including a child.
Personally I'm not even aware of actual security at schools. I'm sure it's a thing in some notorious districts but certainly not anywhere close to where I live. My highschool with 3500 students had 0 security employees

Lol @ the idea of anyone with a handgun trying to neutralize someone with an AR15 dudes live IN a video game..

Based on your name I am assuming you are familiar with the Brussels bombings. Bombs do far more damage than these guns. Touting less mass murder by guns when you have greater mass murder by bombs is a bit disingenuous.

Not entertaining your deflections, daftness and all out buffoonery today.

Be blessed and be gone from my alerts Big Dawg

Or we could just get on par with other comparable countries?

Oh I forgot...da price of freedom.

This is why I laugh when ignorant Americans make fun of "third world" and "@#$@ hole" countries. Forget every other "first world" country that this isn't even clsoe to being an issue in; I've never seen anything close to this in all the poor and developing countries I've been to.
 
Which other countries? The ones with the bombings? Or the ones with the vehicle or knife killings?

I don't remember any schools in Western Europe, Canada, Australia etc being bombed, knifed or rammed at the rate that schools in the US are being shot up. I could be mistaken though. Aware me.

Australia banned guns after one mass shooting. I dare you to go to Melbourne or Sydney and pretend like America is leaps and bounds better.

Blind patriotism is almost as dumb as blind faith. This is coming from someone who legitimately believes America is the best place in the world, and moved 4 different countries just to make it here.
