    It's happening again. After jumping up and down about the white supremacist who mama said was the shooter, and after the two black gangbangers were found to be the shooters, the MSM is turning this into a gun control issue. Who owns most of the LEGAL guns and joins the NRA? Whites do, No matter what, they will find some way to blame the whites for this horrendous crime.

    I'm thinking about starting a petition to demand that mama LaPorsha be charged with: filing a false police report and obstruction of justice. She should have to pay for falsely accusing a white man for this when she knew the shooter was black. She saw the shooter. She's a racist, hater.:dual:

    You forgot to include the human factor. How many homicides happen between 100,000 mature, responsible people? Zero.
    The real question- How many of our people are mature and responsible?
    We have more low-lifes per 100,000 people than most of the countries you chose to list. That is a hard number to statistically verify, but you don't have to be very bright to realize that it is the nature of the people that creates homicidal potential, not the number of guns in existence.

    Sadly America has failed to properly raise our children over the last 50-60 years. Junk psychology started telling people that bad behavior was a mental syndrome and the kids were not responsible for it- and the proper treatment was drugs, which a good number of those children still use as a buffer for life problems. We failed to provide them the role models of responsible people, of good character, of self-discipline and respect. In addition, and we have failed to properly hold people accountable for what they choose to do. It's no wonder we have hostile, undisciplined people- and it is still going on,increasingly, as we continue failing to teach children how to be responsible adults.

    The problems and the answers are both within the characters of the people involved.

    And you read that in the post, when absolutely nothing was said about political parties on either side? When it was not political in any way?
