Hundreds and hundreds of people have died in the Middle East from car bombs and explosive vests, not a single shot fired. I don't know what the solution is, but gun control isn't going to do jack shit, you have to attack the problem at the core.

Why does it have to be one or the other? Why can't it be multiple things, where guns and people are at both at the heart of the problem?

Not every issue is black and white. "Fix A and B will stop." That's not how the world works.

Thank you.

People need to swallow their ridiculous pride and realize that it's not A and it's not B. It's both. It's guns. It's mental health. It's whatever else. Unbelievable that we can't fucking come together and stop shit like this from happening because people are too stubborn.

But it's clear we have a major fucking problem and I'm really tired of this divisiveness. How people are okay with the deaths of others is beyond me. This is sad all around.

i'm VERY happy when someone kicking in a door and/or robbing people is eliminated by a gun holder. the more fb's and tweets we can get of that, the better for everyone.

You're an idiot.

[justink]

in paris, they worry about ISIS... in America, we have to worry about BLM... Way to get yourselves recognized by the FBI as an organized gang. Kudos.

Coordinated sniper fire from elevated positions definitely sounds like BLM modus operandi.

That's all we can do, unless you feel like speculating some more.

I guess we could just take away the right to protest and the right to bare arms. Then both sides will be upset.

But you're being crazy. A majority of the people there didn't harm any officers. If you go on Twitter the cops saved BLM protestors from gun fire. This is not BLM vs Police and you have to choose a side. Both sides are Americans that deserve to be treated equally.

One of the guys taken alive turned himself in and was just hanging out with his AR-15 when the chaos started. It may turned out he was involved, but he wasn't a sniper.

Suspect told police there's bombs all over the place downtown.

Wow this isn't over at all. Still 2 in the garage.

I'm not really a gun person myself ( some people are seriously obsessed with guns to the point it's bordering on mental illness), but I'm not against them either. Everyone has the right the protect themselves. I'm all for making the process of purchasing a gun more narrow ( mental evaluations,ect), but what I said is still a fact. People who want to get a gun badly enough will find the means to do so. It would be nice to live in a world where we didn't need guns, but that's not the reality. There isn't a button we can press that creates instant world peace and makes every gun in the world disappear. Guns will always be around, the problem lies within the reasons why people want to do these things to others.

I think it's ridiculous that people can get these types of guns.

what's there to speculate? are you gonna drive to Houston and blow me if it wasn't BLM's?

[tyler3440]

AR-15s should be banned.

You don't warrant a take because you're a piece of shit.

[tyler3440]

This does make the protesters look pretty stupid.

[SqueeBaBooSquee]

AH! Why? This is so fucking stupid. Why can't we have monthly psycho analysis on every gun owner? I don't care how much it costs the gov. they spend trillions elsewhere. Not like it will really affect the national debt. in grand scheme comparison. I have no problem with law abiding gun owners protecting their family. You outlaw guns, only people like ISIS and maniacs end up with them then anyway... Just psychotic assholes that want to make a name for themselves do this shit every few months now. Pisses me off.

[SqueeBaBooSquee]

What were the sniper's weapons anyway?

Why do people always use the AR-15 as an example? Girl is 7 damn years old....

Who knows. But what ever it is it shouldn't legal. Maybe they aren't I don't know.

Big deal.

Why does a 7 year old need to shoot that gun?

Based on the video, it definitely sounded like some sort of semi automatic sniper.
