Especially if they took place in the Fraser valley where your children may have attended. Btw 138 school children gunned down since 2014.

Second, I would have the schools notify the police when they expel or notice a specific threat from a student (something that didn't happen in the recent incident), I would consider metal detectors and if certain teachers or school staff wanted to have a firearm in a safe in their classroom, I would encourage them to have special training and allow that to happen. We pay extra for teachers who carry first aid certificates, why not for having a defense ticket. I would raise the age requirement for purchasing firearms. I would establish male councellors who actually council students and can identify future problems. How about you?

I am just seeking clarification. You choose not to hold NRA lobbyists accountable even though they get paid millions upon millions contributions from gun manufacturers and even a percentage of sales. This is why the NRA needs to be held accountable. They have an agenda that is hidden from millions of parents. Quote I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels.

Hal 9000 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Of course you, like every lefty has no real ideas other than to assign blame. Being held accountable is quite different than preventing another incident. How is the NRA responsible for the latest incident anyway? Would you hold Planned Parenthood responsible for all the abortions that happen in the USA?

And, it's not really a partisan issue because Obama didn't have the votes even when he had a super majority. Anyway, it makes no sense to assume that somehow the NRA can do anything about school shootings. You can wring your hands all you want, but they have nothing to do with it.

It’s clearly spelled out on many sites their original intent and how much they have succumbed to money Thanks, I keep an open mind when people present intelligent ideas without trolling! I found that the NRA is already opposing any changes to gun laws proposed by the US government-Gun lobby pushes back on Trump's gun plans after Florida shootingThe National Rifle Association pushed back on Sunday against modest proposals by President Donald Trump and other Republicans to change U.S. gun laws after a school shooting in Florida that killed 17 students and staff. The powerful gun lobby group does not support Trump’s proposals to raise the age limit for buying certain types of guns and to ban bump stocks that enable semi-automatic rifles to shoot hundreds of rounds a minute, a spokeswoman said on ABC’s “This Week.” Should be interesting to see how far this goes, whether Trump will cave to them, or force his ideas through.
