So many ways to bypass this.... Better to do something with the guns themselves....

Specifically.

Banning magazines with more than 10 bullets is a good start.

I'm great with banning specific configurations - but soft bans such as age, gender, will always find a way....

Banning men from guns does nothing..women buy em, too.

People are venting. Moderation can't come when emotions are at their peak. But, the truth is that we do have to address the issue of toxic masculinity in this country and guns are a BIG part of that.

But, by all means, proceed with the "emotional reactions to massacres are hysterical" hysterics.

Why are so many people spending so much time proposing so many answers to a problem they are unwilling to actually study?

Thanks for the heads up on that thread.

anatomy, hormonal medicine and female psychology through the childbearing years?

Funny, that.

As far as allowing only women to buy guns, my only question is, "Would that have included Nancy Lanza?"

Apologies if I'm wrong but I infer that your sarcasm focuses on the seriousness of mass shootings and how suggesting some reactions are "out of control". I find it helpful in most cases for people to express their feelings without having to be experts in the topics of their love or hate. I've learned the difference between posts aimed at expressing heartfelt emotions and those expressing serious ideas on legislation and politics.

Some of that is a bit personal but my wife had various difficulties in conception and delivery of our oldest and the post delivery complications. For the last 11 years she has been a cancer patient involving specific female anatomy, related surgery, radiation, chemotherapy and the side effects. She is a warrior.

female biology. Though, I take it you never expressed an opinion about abortion before your extensive education in that subject.

Those who fail to learn all they can about the life and death issues affecting them, IMO, are not the wisest owls in the tree. My wife and daughters have exceptionally high IQs and have studied at post grad levels in a few areas. They look to me for my opinions and input. I absolutely support and defer to their decisions on such issues.

All of my "extensive education" has been acquired through self-study and learned from the females in my family. My undergrad degree was in physics.

I generally put my money where my mouth is and have offered to finance an abortion for a family friend.

I'm not seeing how your tangent here has any relevance to the topic of this OP. If this is some half assed purity test, leave me out of it. I solely support Democrats. Period.

Have a nice day.

I did not intend to ask anything planned to be a purity test. I have no doubt you are a genuine Democrat.

You have a nice day as well.

it has happened but I don't recall ever hearing about one.

Sure thing, ban guns to men!

Phil Hartman was shot and killed by his wife. (Girlfriend?)

Does that mean it makes it ok?

And men are the vast majority of hunters,

…and responded to every gun control post asking for something that clearly has no chance of passing, I wouldn’t even have time to get up and relive myself.

They like to vent. When you read something like “ban them and let the military bomb them”, just smile and move on, as what they want isn’t going to happen. We aren’t going to ban men from buying guns, the US isn’t going to drop bombs on US Republican towns to scare the rest into handing over guns, any of the other crazy things they WOULD LIKE to see happen but is all just mental masturbation.
