So in the US you need a trained security team now also in churches and not only in schools and other public spaces to defend yourself. What happened to the well regulated militia mentioned in the 2nd amendment? |

Either way, I doubt it has a reporter in White Settlement, Texas so they are just republishing a news wire story. Likely source a fellow parishioner who got the law enforcement agency the gentleman worked for wrong. |

In 2016, the overall rate of death by firearms in the United States was 11.8[1] per 100,000 people — the same as for death by motor vehicles — with suicides accounting for roughly two out of every three gun deaths. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firearm_death_rates_in_the_United_States_by_state “If more guns and fewer gun laws made Texas safer, it would be the safest state in the US. Instead, it has high rates of gun suicide and homicide, and is home to 4 of the 10 deadliest mass shootings.†Mrs Watts and the other 'Moms' should probably check their facts a little more closely........ ....or focus equal attention on banning motor vehicles.......

So... Soooo.........you are suggesting this would not have been a mass shooting(4 or more) had not the madman been stopped in mid-crime? That type of reasoning is silly beyond response.

Yes. Thank the almighty God that protect Americans with guns. But I don't understand why there are so many mass shootings in the US though. Make no sense. No sense at all since all these mass shootings is not about self defense. |

More guns will help this ... https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2020/01/02/SC-deer-hunting-accident-kills-father-9-year-old-daughter/3871577994797/?ts_=4It's getting pretty bad when a person can't tell the difference between a human and a deer (even worse if they were firing blind). :-( |

Would not be surprised is booze was involved. Speaking of which with the comparison between drunk driving and guns that so many NRA types want to make, then being in possession of a gun while intoxicated should be a felony.More guns will help this ... https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2020/01/02/SC-deer-hunting-accident-kills-father-9-year-old-daughter/3871577994797/?ts_=4It's getting pretty bad when a person can't tell the difference between a human and a deer (even worse if they were firing blind). :-( |
