Title: Another mass shooting
Post by: ajamimajida on May 31, 2019, 06:36:56 pm
We have another mass shooting, this time in Virginia Beach where an employee who was fired yesterday came back today and killed 12.  When will this end?

When Jesus Christ comes back! God is with us!
" If My people who are called by my name,will humble themselves, and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from from heaven, and will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
2 Chronicles 7:14

My thoughts and prayers goes out to all the family members grieving and sorrowful. I'm also praying for us all.

It'll never end until we ban guns from all except police.

We can ban guns, there're so many who already have them. What do we do with that?

There are surely major problems in this country. Interesting that the demographic usually doing the shooting is male and white.  As I see it, there seems to be problems with entitlement, anger management, intolerance, and dealing with rejection along with, of course, a major mental health diagnosis.

It won't.  For the Christians it will end when Jesus comes back.

Well it will end for the Christians.  After the Rapture it will only get worse for the ones who chose to stay here.  And yes, it is a choice.

lol.  That is so foolish.  If no citizen has guns then why do the police need guns?  If you want to live in an area with no guns then move to Venezuela.  I hear it is working out really well for them!

I knew it would not take long for the anti gun people to chime in. If you do not want to own a gun then don't. But it is a constitutional right for citizens to bear arms and be able to protect themselves.  It is not law abiding citizens who are carrying out these attacks anyway.

Using your theory we need to also ban cars and people can uses taxi's or busses because some people drive drunk or drugged up or text while driving.  And let's don't forget the ones who speed and run stop signs.  I mean people use cars to break the law and kill others so NO ONE should be allowed to own a car.  Just a special few.

smh.  I also get tired of hearing mental health.  The problem is kids are raised to believe the world revolves around them and they cannot be told no.  Every body gets a trophy. You get every thing handed to you and you do not have to work for it.   So then when they get out in the real world they cannot handle it when things do not go their way.

I totally agree except that we need to add the military but when either of them leave job the gun should be left behind.  I know it is part of the constitution to be able to bear arms but when so many people are abusing the right it should be taken away

You may be tired of hearing about mental health, but that does not make it go away.  It is pretty obvious that if you commit crimes like we are talking about, you have issues.  If you cannot regulate yourself, than there is a mental problem.  And if you are on general forums on the internet, you can read a lot of posts where people have issues with the way they express themselves. Some of them I would not want to talk to face to face for fear of the problems mentioned in my original post.

He wasn't fired.  He sent in a letter of resignation on the same day as the shooting.  It really is so sad that people are getting use to hearing about mass shootings.  I think the one fortunate issue is the police were right across the street and got there within minutes.  Had they not, there is no telling how many more would have been killed or injured.  It's so depressing to keep hearing about these shootings.

Then we need to take YOUR DL away.  Because so many people drink and drive and use drugs and drive. So the only solution is to take your right to drive away as well.

The point is I do not believe it is a mental health thing.  People are evil and stupid.  Then they blame mental health.  I wouldn't want to talk face to face with a lot of people I talk to online because their stupidity is more than I can deal with.

Yes, it's a very sad case here.  It happened in the municipal area many miles away from the tourist area.  I don't understand why people feel they need to do this to innocent people.  Many people are affected by this and the school kids are really suffering.  We are having prayer vigils and will stand strong.

There were twenty 6-7 year olds that were killed in Sandy Hook. If children dying wasn't enough to have a mature discussion about guns, I don't there is ever going to be a time.

There should not be a gun ban - it's our second amendment right to bear arms. You're never going to get rid of them. But there could be regulations put into place for law-abiding citizens. It won't stop criminals from getting guns entirely, but it can help.

The guy in Orlando was on a no-fly list but could get a gun and killed 49 people. Obama tried to pass a law that if you were on the no-fly list, you weren't able to purchase firearms. It was just an extra precaution. Only a short time later, the guy committed a mass shooting in the nightclub.

There's a lot that can change; nothing that would affect current gun owners, but future mass shooters. But I don't believe that a mature discussion can take place until everyone is willing to put parties aside.

That is such a tragedy. I just saw that news yesterday and wondered when it would ever stop. My prayers are for the families and I hope the police can do more about future would be shooters. Maybe if someone suspects something they can report it before things get too far gone or maybe some laws can be created that would curb some of this senseless violence. With this happening so frequently you just don't feel truly safe anymore. May peace with all in that community.

It seems as though the people in this world have lost their tiny minds.  Be it any city or state their is death being caused by some sick individual/s.  The changes that I see in this world is mind blowing.  There are Tornadoes where there were never tornadoes etc.  It's scary on so many levels.

There are already too many "regulations" being shoved on the law abiding citizens.  It is like you said the criminals are not big on obeying the law anyway and THEY are the ones who do stuff like this.  Not the law abiding citizens.

What do Tornadoes have to do with people committing crimes.  The two are unrelated.  I am not sure where you are saying there are tornadoes where they have never been tornadoes.
