3 critically wounded in shooting in southwestern Denver metro area high school

The USA Constitution was written for a different quality of people.
If the author of the 2nd Amendment (Madison?) could see how it has worked out he would admit that it was a dire blunder.
The blunder was not in the Amendment, but in how the Supreme Court interpreted it.
 

Didn't notice this, huh? It made international news, and had threads on this site covering it.

Seeing as how we were tralking about school shootings, my request for a source stands.

Random violence can obviously take a variety of forms other than guns.
 
According to the authors...
"While both James Monroe and John Adams supported the Constitution being ratified, its most influential framer was James Madison. In Federalist No. 46, Madison wrote how a federal army could be kept in check by the militia, "a standing army ... would be opposed [by] militia." He argued that State governments "would be able to repel the danger" of a federal army, "It may well be doubted, whether a militia thus circumstanced could ever be conquered by such a proportion of regular troops."
Militias were meant to be a counter to a standing army, if needed.
Well then, they best be armed then. If that were the point. Thought it was about hunting or whatever.

Give it up.
Know how the WW2 era are called 'the best generation"? You lot will be known as the worst generation.
The ****?

350 million adolescents with guns, squandering your inheritance. If the Americans from 3 generations past could see what's become of the nation they left you, they'd turn their heads and close their eyes.
Of course they would. Because we legalized gay marriage and support minorities and, gasp, let people of different skin types marry! And we drive cars with automatic transmissions and don't write letters anymore!

Also we pay women more! The horror!

Those assholes would crash out so ****ng hard.

The fact that you didn't know about that heinous attack, tells everyone in the thread all they need to know.

Hopefully knife bans are considered.
 
school shootings are ho hum.......now add trans in the mix and you'll get 100 pages
Imagine the people shot in Chicago that day.

They didn't even get a thread, much less pages of replies.
