with a gun. We need to arm six years olds- wayne Lapierre

Satire at its best. The NRA should be sued into oblivion. Just sayin'.

Funnily enough, Matt Gaetz came across as the least stupid of all his marks in this video.

Joe Walsh was interviewed later explaining how he got duped.

Nothing tops this one though…the humiliation is epic and well deserved:

the teacher must have been hitting the children. But I guess she wasn't. It's nice to have evidence before making ridiculous and occasionally defamatory pronouncements...

and was apparently a figment of the poster's imagination. I hope we don't see it again.

did the 1st grader yell "Molon Labe" before shooting?

I didn't see any of that, but it sounds like speculation that got way out of hand. People should be careful about that kind of thing, imo. It can quickly become a slippery slope.

And when children shoot and kill their teachers there will be no consequences.
Maybe a parent will get a misdemeanor.

All Americans get guns.

Oh God. The little picture now in my head of the SC ruling all pregnant women have
to have tiny little guns jammed up their veejays.

releasing the teacher’s or other student’s
names- It may put them at further risk.

The parents of the shooter should be in jail-
if the gun was theirs.

are moot in this case. It happened because we awash with guns.
When you do the math, by the time this kid graduates from high school, there will be well over a billion guns in a country of 350 million.
Guns don't rot, they don't rust, they don't expire like yogurt. The are cumulative and we will soon have enough to fill evaporated Lake Tahoe.
This is the right wing fever dream we are living under and I hate it.

“I almost died and all the gun owner got was a fine or community service?”
Ay ay ay!!!!

Give them a fine that will teach them.

It is almost impossible to wrap our minds around the fact that a six-year-old first-grader brought a loaded handgun to our school and shot a teacher;

Why is it impossible? Kids get their hands on guns every day in this firearm-saturated land. Best get wrapping- this kind of thing isn’t even remotely far fetched, it’s an inevitable consequence of having so many guns with so few restrictions.

to shoot someone with a gun. He's probably seen a lot of gun violence on tv but he's too young to understand what's real and what isn't - he's learned only that the people on tv use guns to get their way or to solve arguments. If his parents kept a loaded gun in their home and didn't secure it, it was their fault that the kid brought it to school, maybe just to show off with even if he didn't intend to shoot anybody in the first place. This sort of thing happens far too often and it's always the fault of careless adults.

And when the teacher tried to take it away, there's the possibility that SHE didn't realize it was a real gun.
And this is absolutely ludicrous that leaving a LOADED gun in a home with small children is only a misdemeanor charge! The NRA writes the gun laws in our country.

I don't think we were allowed to bring toy guns to school either.

My BIL moved from NJ to Richmond. He says he is shocked to see assault rifles carried openly in supermarkets, etc.

No doubt this child has seen terrible examples of people carrying guns his entire life

brought on more Charges than a "misdemeanor.

for that child being in possession of that weapon.
I don’t care if it was a neighbor’s gun or some extended family’s gun or a friend of the family’s gun.
It wasn’t secured…they are responsible.

Tikki
*even illegally if they can prove who illegally had possession of the gun.

When the 6-year old pulls the gun, the teacher pulls their own gun and shoots the 6 year-old?

THe gunman is too young to be tried as an adult.
He is also too young to be tried as a juvenile.
It is doubtful the parents get custody of him again.

First she was early 30's, then 30 now 25.
Shot in the chest, now in the abdomen.
Reporters! Do some research!

Along with faith and ivermectin.

Her heroic effort to take that gun away may have saved the lives of several children.

That little kid could have easily shot a classmate. Fk you! How about praying for the full recovery of the teacher who was shot and doing something about guns?

He's a loon. I'm not surprised that he'd say something like that.

WTH?? Criminal liability seems fair for these gun nuts.

available to a six year old should face prison time. jeezus this is truly insane.

You would presume the police would ask the kid where he got the gun, but who knows if the parents lawyered up quickly and prevented any questioning of the child.

I sure hope they can get to the bottom of it.

Maybe Congress can start an investigation. Special committee, yada.
