What an truly fucked up country the US has become
This is apparently the 11th school shooting in the last 43 days !!!
19th this year, and gun sales increase after each atrocity. What a fucking crazy place.
Cheers Rob was just about to correct myself. Sickening - as is this - the levels of lunacy is truly off the scale

There is no way in hell that Trump actually wrote that tweet himself.
True - probably playing golf
The US will do fuck all about it again but in typical american exploitative style sales in things like this will go through the roof while the real solution will be bribed away by the NRA and gun lobbies.
I hope this is true!
That would be fucking excellent!
Shooting survivor Emma Gonzalez just called out Trump on national television!!! She is on a mission.
This gun debate has been going on for so long that there is really diddly squat anyone can do about it without at best committing political suicide, and at worse starting a civil war.
Obama tried to start a debate and got precisely knowhere.
It has very little to do with debate and a lot to do with lobbying and the legalised bribing of politicians in the form of campaign contributions. If you can deal with the NRA, you’ll have a much better chance of getting an actual debate in the US. I recall reading that Russian funds may have come through the NRA (they donated over $30m to Trump’s campaign). If that’s the case there’s a chance there that the NRA is toast. I won’t hold my breath on that though.
NRA is just a name - guns are in the culture
The Venn diagram of Trump Russia deniers and NRA membership will.have a considerable intersection.
If it makes someone money America will sanction, adopt and keep it, regardless of moral or humanitarian implications. Unfortunately as Jim said , it’s their culture, they learned nothing from Dodge City and Boot Hill.
He really is a wanker,now trying to blame the FBI and having digs at Obama for not doing anything.
Seems the kids are having a strike on April the 20th
