Omg already.. school just started
What is it gonna take to get some proper regulation in place??!
@Gr3yPuPPy because if someone wants to kill or seriously hurt another person they don’t need a gun. It’s not the weapon, it’s the person. By your logic we should get rid of cars so accidents would stop happening. Or paring knives so people stop cutting their fingers while peeling an apple. It’s just beyond ridiculous to think that way
no one should even be THINKING about bringing a gun to school. this world has gone to shit.
@dundalkUser1503131017 so they can endanger the lives of other students?
School year getting off to a miserable start. The United States has got to do better than this.
