No guns would still prevent mass shootings.There's no way to stop the evil - remember as it is written the evil is growing, increasing, every day until Jesus returns.
So? Look up the rate of death caused by doctors. (in the usa)No guns would still prevent mass shootings.
I'm a bit lost in that. What are we balancing? What are we tweaking? What had we done since Littleton to prevent similar events?What had we done since Orlando or Kingport?
So. The question was asked how to stop mass shootings. I answered the question. We know the way is take people's gun rights away. Nothing else will work.So? Look up the rate of death caused by doctors. (in the usa)
It is thousands of times higher than terrorists events for the last 20 years.
If there's "no way to stop evil" it seems odd this particular evil only seems to be a problem in one developed country.

Or Orlando? Or San Bernardino? Or Columbine? Or Newtown?
Political action? Legal action? Social action? Personal action?
Or should we even bother? Do we simply resign ourselves to going through these motions again in another 6 months or so? Or are we counting on these kinds of incidents to just go away?
Thoughts?
I think at the heart of it, this is ultimately a spiritual problem, produced in a world where there is no foundation to the belief that anything has any real value, outside of what our personal idiosyncrasies may or may not be willing to ceded to anything, even ourselves and other people.
Being created in the image of God, and therefore every human creature being from its conception to its natural end of a Divine nature is no longer believed or taught.
Scientific materialism teaches us that we are meat. For people who have become totally unconnected to society, this is what meat looks like.
It bleed a lot.
Just so long as we also agree that things like the travel ban are equally useless, I'm on board.
So what's your proposed solution?
So what you're saying is it's the inanimate object that is dangerous not the person who wields/operates it???
