I'll agree with you on most of those points and add the elimination of corporal punishment to that list.mojo84 wrote:I think it comes down to several factors including but not limited to removing God from schools and everyday life, breakdown of the traditional family, elimination of individual responsibility, no accountability, not willing to accept lower level jobs and the proliferation of the entitlement attitude.
Now I realize there are exceptions to everything and there are people that have overcome the above. However, they definitely make it more challenging.

Re: Shooting at Oregon community college.
In those two cases, I'd certainly agree that it appears to be a bad combination.

Re: Shooting at Oregon community college.
Im no expert in Oregon law, but I'd guess they have a law in place to remove guns from irresponsible or negligent owners.Rex B wrote:Of course, but the question was a serious one. Regardless of whether you or I or the State thinks she was irresponsible or negligent in giving a troubled youth access to firearms, is there existing law that enables the state to disarm a citizen in such a case?Taypo wrote:Is this the same mother who knew he had mental problems and allowed him access to guns?Rex B wrote:"Law enforcement officials have said they recovered 14 firearms and spare ammunition magazines that were purchased legally either by Mr. Harper-Mercer, 26, or an unnamed relative."
What right does LEO have to confiscate all the mother's guns?
As the mother (facilitator?) of mass-murderer, I think her own life is in danger now.

Getting REAL tired of listening to people call him a soldier too. He didn't make it out of basic training. In this day and age if you can't get through that, you're pretty much hopeless.

Re: Shooting at Oregon community college.
I watched CNN for about 3 minutes before it went back to Fox. The condescending anti gun garbage gets me every time. I'm sure they won't interview that person againtreadlightly wrote:God be with the families.
Forgive me for noting the uncomfortable tones in which CNN just interviewed someone who pointed out that berserkers would know they wouldn't face armed resistance in gun free zones.

Re: Shooting at Oregon community college.
Coworker just asked me about that one. If it was combined to one classroom/floor then that sound may not travel very far. I'd really doubt a suppressor was used in something like this, but who knows what's going on with this guy.The Annoyed Man wrote:I heard a mother of one of the students being interviewed, saying that her son was still trapped in a classroom and waiting for instructions. She said her son is a shooting enthusiast, and he gave a strange detail....... that the shots were almost silent, and he wondered if the shooter was using a suppressor.

Thanks for the tip. Just picked that app up, working well.mojo84 wrote:I use the Scanner Radio app for Android.
Part of the issue may be the number of listeners. Last I saw it was over 22,000. Sometimes that overwhelms their server.
