Will the NRA step in and take out the teens? Will rabid wacko gun people shoot THEM DAM* teens too? What are the odds that THIS TIME things will be different?

Well the Florida kids experienced their own mini-holocast and resue to lie down roll over and let things go on as usual. Adults are impotent to do anything about it apparently. Teens are anything but and this is going to be in your face and growing larger and larger. When the old are too decrepit in mind and body spirity to do anything the young take over and lead the way. Good for them. Their interviews are assured and logical and passaionate. The adults are assured and passionate about the wrong thing. Let them learn from the children because they are woefully resistant to changing/repairing what needs fixing andcontinue to refuse to care about anything but their blasted guns. less

The government instituted a gun buyback program and 660,959 firearms were turned in to the government and WERE ALL DESTROYED! There was another gun buyback program in 2003. Since the 1996 buyback program began there have been NO MASS SHOOTINGS IN AUSTRALIA. I'd say that is PROOF that fewer guns result in fewer deaths wouldn't you? People won't change. They cannot be trusted with guns. The Aussies agreed and complied and the result isn't magical it's logical. Fewer guns result in fewer death. The psychological obsessive fixation Americans have with guns is inexplicable other than that it is filling some lack/need/void in their lives. Australians are much smarter than gun-fixated Americans. The proof of that is in the pudding so to speak. Somewhere along the line Americans began valuing guns more than they do lives. When massacres occur they go out and buy more guns. To celebrate deaths? Sad state of the union isn't it? less
