  1. I agree with Rubio. The teenagers were comparing him the shooter and calling the NRA "blood money". Supporting guns rights does not make you a murderer. I support what the NRA does but that does not make me a murderer. The actions of the teens as that of dismissive an unproductive and it is sad they are being trained to act like that. This is why there will not be any new gun laws passes. When you act like that no one is going to listen.

  2. "Considering the fact you are generalizing teenagers, and teenagers who experienced a school shooting (What is your experience based on?) suggests you have no intent of hearing them solely based on their age" Two things. One, they are young and inexperienced. Two, they just faced a horrific event and should be seeing a counselor, not the media. I find it sickening how they are being paraded around so that people can push their gun control propaganda. No matter what age I would not listen to someone who just experienced an event like that because they are emotional and their mind is not in the right place. They need to, at the very least, calm down and re-collect themselves.

  3. "The discussion is about the ban of assault rifles, no one is talking about banning guns as a whole " I disagree. To start, what is an "assault rifle"? That can be a lot. Next, many are pointing to the AR 15 which, to me, is a Trojan horse for banning all guns. Why not ban the Ruger mini 14? It is essentially the same gun. Also, if you ban assault rifles and another mass shooting happens, then what? What is your next step? "purchase military grade weapons" What is a "military grade weapon?" I feel you have no clue what a gun actually is.

  4. "The founding fathers didn't have AR's they didn't exist at that point in time. " Really? They never predicted technology getting better? Also, if you want to play that route why not limit the internet to only government use. The founding fathers never predicted the internet when writing the 1st amendment. "The AR-15 is a "civilian modified" military grade weapon" It isn't. But even at that there are several guns that are just as deadly. Look up what the VA Tech shooter used.

  5. I love all the intelligent responses. I can now see why no gun reform laws are being passed. When gun control supporters act like this no one listens.

  6. Two things 1. What new gun law would stop these shootings? 2. These kids were not there to discuss, they were there to silence the opposition and play emotions. What I find to be more sickening is how the media is parading these children to push their propaganda when these children should be seeing a counselor.

  7. Get Social, 1. We have background checks already. And what type of guns will you ban? People are pushing for the AR 15 when a Ruger mini 14 is essentially the same gun. Also, in VA Tech around 30 people were killed with hand guns in that shooting. As for the UK if you look at the murder rate of the US and the UK the murder rate in the US is 5 times higher. However, if you remove all gun murders from the equation only from the US the US still has a murder rate that is twice as high as the UK. What does that mean? That shows a difference in culture where we have more murders in general for various reasons besides guns. You can't just look at gun laws and murder rates as many factors play in murder rates. 2. I don't blame the kids for being emotional, but they should be seeing a counselor, not the media. As for you saying "tragedies like this happening much too often" what do you base that off of? John Lott did a study where he compared mass shootings in the US to other countries and found that in countries like Norway, Finland and France have more deaths due to mass shootings and a higher rate of mass shootings. He had the US at 12th and 11th in those rankings. How did he come up with that? Well, he factor in population and he looked at mass shootings (that he defined as 4 or more deaths) where the only crime was the shooting. That means if there was a shooting that involved gangs where four people were killed he ruled those out. Why? Because gang activity is illegal and the shooting was targeting people. That is an issue of gangs and comparing a gang shooting, which are isolated and a different topic, to a shooting like what occurred in Florida is not a fair comparison. This shooter was not targeting a particular group but instead was targeting people without discrimination. Does that mean we do not have a problem? No. What it means is that it is not as severe as what others make it out to be. "What I find to be more sickening is how there are people that refuse to see the obvious and are treating the kids like nuisances or enemies to their precious guns." It is not treating them as enemies but instead calling them out for their lack of respect and inability to have an intelligent, and progressive conversation. This is why nothing will get passed. When one side calls you a child murderer for not agreeing with them you cannot take them seriously. I don't support the murder of anyone, Rubio feels the same way as does the NRA. If you want to have an intellectual conversation you have to treat the other side with respect and be willing to talk.

  8. Secular Guy, two wrongs don't make a right. However, the issue is that the political left started this. When Obama was elected whenever you opposed him people called you a racist. I was called a racist for opposing Obama's policies. You have Pier Morgan calling people stupid, Bill Maher calling others racist, Ana saying she is better than you, etc. Trump won because he acted like them in calling out the politicians. It is fighting fire with fire. The problem is that left refuses to have a debate. If you disagree with them on guns they call you a child murderer. You can't speak to people like that so at that point you have to do what Trump does. If I were Rubio and that one teen said to me what he said to Rubio about looking down the barrel of an AR 15 and seeing Cruz, I would call him out on it. I will say "if we are to have an intelligent, and civil conversation to progress on this issue you cannot approach me like that. You approaching me like that means you do not want to have a conversation." Trump is playing the leftists at their own game, that is name calling.

  9. It isn't so much that. In reality these kids should receive counseling first and then have a discussion and be taught how to have a proper discussion. I found it sickening to parade these kids around after a tragic event using them as pawns to push for gun control.

  10. If they ban the AR-15 one can buy the Ruger mini 14. Same round, same firing speed, same capacity. Oh how I love how stupid gun control supporters are.
