    So stop thinking of others and praying for them and offer your solution. Pretty simple concept.

    My position is harden soft targets, if it is to protect the children then protect them by protrecting them, not taking away rights of others who are not the problem. Ban your "assault rifles", fictional term by the way, and you will only have Choi's to deal with. He used handguns. Then it will be semi automatic "assault pistols", then revolvers and eventually the only legal firearm will be flintlocks only able to be used on rainy days.

    Expand mental health definitions to flag youth at an early age. Due process is an American right, and should be on all issues. Flagging someone at 11 years of age should come up when they turn 18/21 and try to purchase a firearm. Denied. Due process allows them the means to clear the record of incident and restore their right. Also needs to be undeniable issues with a punishment for anyone that falsely does so in malice.

    Add medications that treat serious mental illness as a prerequisite to being allowed to legally own/possess firearms. If you are taking a drug designated for restrictions but it is for something else, a physician should be able to provide a written affidavit stating such. Either way, if you are prescribed it you should be added to a NICS database until cleared. The designated meds should obviously be narrow in scope, ibuprofen or heartburn meds should not be on the list.

    If you want to change the age to purchase, also change the age for selective service registration, military enrollment, voting and driving. Some are rights, some are privileges but all take mental development into consideration. Not fit for one, not fit for any.

    abortion, marriage, gender reassignment, ability to enter contracts ( like loans for college, vehicles, property, etc), purchase tobacco/weed, bank accounts/ credit are of course contacts too....

    Of course this because, under age x, are too immature.

    Exactly, every piece of legislation that could help, regardless of party, has that kill pill. The one thing the other party will not accept. And they know it when they write it.

    You have your Rino's and Dino's and neither of them give a **** about you or your well being. Then you have your steadfast Republicans and Democrats that write such legislation knowing they are playing to your particular beliefs, all the while knowing it doesn't stand a chance.

    They are in it for your vote, not your beliefs.

    You aren't getting my guns and you aren't getting my right to purchase guns. the government cannot protect me from itself and the evil doers in this society. Taking my rights won't make a single part of America any safer. You'll just feel good inside, beating someone whose politics are different than yours.

    I did NOT will NOT watch the Democratic Barnamun & Bailey 3 ring circus.
    I know I don't have to because even Fox will rerun snippets non stop. Someone any one should slap Liz's Channey's face off .,IMO. She like Biden are the two most vindictive humans in public office I've ever seen. Petty, I'll get you for hurting my feelings BS. The poster couple for America's biggest threats.
    It makes me sick that with EVERYTHING else going on, this clown car stuffed with all its clowns will be driving this for the entire summer up too the elections. Spending everyone's taxes on their one party political dumpster fire.
    My only angst relief is knowing there is a special place, eventually, in hell for these people. I wish them a long life to ponder that and how history WILL portray their TRUE nature.

    He had the freedom to say what he said. Sometimes words have consequences though.
