No matter what JE says about the 2nd and his opinion that it will never be repealed. I and most of the others outside of the US, have not called for it to be repealed, although that is probably the best looooong term option. We do think there should be greater gun control and bans on firearms that have no practical place.

It would appear that many in the US also support this, even amongst gun owners. Gun owners support a wide range of gun control measures, Johns Hopkins study finds

What irony!
she was protesting against a university policy that prohibited students, professors and employees from carrying "lethal weapons" on campus - but allows "guests" to possess them on school grounds (but not in buildings).
Forget the far left/left whackos, the libertarian weirdo's, the far right/right nutjobs, or the do nothing & lazy centralists, the most divisive issue in the States is & will be for some considerable time the 2nd Amendment

In Europe we have problems with terrorists killing innocent people.
No one have come up with the idea to arm the people.
In the US when Americans killing innocent people.
Lets arm the people says NRA and many other.
What happens?
You will see more of this in your school yards.

He's also a member of the local Greek Orthodox Church, Yap... any insightful commentary on that too?

Edit: I'm also very curious as to your "source" regarding his clothing.

Gee, who would have guessed... "Trenchcoat Worn By Santa Fe School Shooter Shows Both Communist and Nazi Symbols". I guess that far-right Nazi stuff cancels out the far-left Communist stuff then, leaving him as just a plain old apolitical mass-murderer, right?

Blyat! You know nothing about Soviet symbols. As the shooter today.
However Nazi symbols is very well known and used in the US.
As for the shooter today those symbols has nothing to do with the act today.
It's obvious he was bullied in high school and wanted to get even.
What to do? Get yourself a gun of course.
Very simple in the USA.

Well, going with clothes with symbols like the shooter today will definitely make you go to a Gulag for two years at least in Russia.
Even if you don't haven't done any crime!

And the stupidity continues.

1 killed, 1 injured in shooting at Georgia high school.

One person was killed and a second was injured in a shooting in the parking lot of a Georgia high school Friday night, according to WXIA.

The shooting happened at Mount Zion High School in Jonesboro.

The Clayton County Fire Department told WXIA there were three victims taken to hospitals. Two were taken to hospitals with gunshot wounds and one of those victims has died. The third victim was a pregnant woman who was injured when she was pushed.

The deceased victim has been identified as a woman in her 40s.

WXIA’s Ashley Johnson, citing police, previously reported that three people were shot and that the shooting happened at a graduation ceremony.[
One day, and the sooner the better.
