So you’re plan is to try and tackle something that’s written into the constitution… that’s your goal? Say it’s nearly impossible to do everything else on that list which isn’t written into our constitution…but guns… they’re easier to fix…fucking hell you all are really naive.
Those are all fantastic suggestions. In my opinion we absolutely should be taking much more drastic measures to decrease school shootings in the meantime, as nearly everything you suggest would still take at least ~15-20 years to see results. Any dead kid is too many and there are way too many school shootings.
So you’re ok with SCOTUS and other judges being appointed and no term limits? What about the POTUS, are you saying it’s ok if Trump won and kept being president as long as he continues to win?
Please tell me the good sides of having no term limits. Laws shouldn’t be straped to a single person.
Nothing will improve the situation until we make a concerted effort to shut down gun manufacturing and distribution, even forcibly removing them from the hands of criminals any way we possibly can. And since the kid-killers at the NRA won’t allow that, the answer is - this problem of mass murder in schools is only going to intensify until everyone’s child is at risk and can no longer attend public schools of any kind. And that’s only the tip of the horrific iceberg of a shitshow that’s coming to our country.
Wow you’re really off the deep end aren’t you…I thought most conspiracy theory nut jobs where mainly right wing…but shit you just went into over drive and leaned hard left on that one…
I am as leftist as any human being ever could be - and damn proud of it. Saying the truth always seems like “going off the deep end” to people who aren’t able to comprehend. I consider your remark proof of that.
So what do you think is going to decrease school shootings? What are you proposing or support that will improve the situation?
We can start with:
Single payer healthcare
Ending the War on Drugs
Ending Qualified immunity
Properly funding our schools and not just rich white suburb schools.
Build more schools and hire more teachers for proper pay so the class room sizes aren’t 30-40 kids for one teacher.
UBI (at least start talking about it) once AI takes over most of the blue collar jobs.
End for profit prisons
Enforce the laws already on the books
Make sure there are safety nets for poor families so the kids don’t turn to violence/gangs to survive.
Increase the minimum wage
Recreate our mental healthcare so kids don’t turn to the internet for support. And to help veterans not end up as a suicide number.
Actively make a law to solidify Pro-choice rights. More unwanted children do not help our situation.
Banning Insider Trading for Congress
Term limits
Ranked Choice Voting so we can move away from a 2 party system
So basically… Fix every other nearly impossible to fix problem first before even deciding to do anything about the actual guns, if anything at all?
And to be clear, by impossible to fix, I mean politically, not that these problems are actually unsolvable.

And you can end with bringing your gun regulations up to speed to every other developed nation.
Or not because it’s not the guns… it’s our society that needs fixing.
Lol fantastic response. And its crickets from everyone else being critical
No, not crickets. Those things sound great, let’s do them. We should do everything we can, and that also includes stricter gun laws.
Not term limits though. It may sound like a good idea, but I implore you to research issues with term limits.
Term limits need to happen, otherwise you end up being ruled by politicians who are in a perpetual cycle of trying to stay in office.
Term limits will seal the deal to the end of our Democracy.
Either you’re arguing in bad faith, and know this, or you’re refusing to inform yourself of the downsides.

Buddy, I’m not going to do all the work for you. This is a well researched subject with a ton of information, it’s not some brand new idea.
I was mainly referring to elected positions, I’m not necessarily against term limits for Supreme Court Justices.
Edit: See my reply to the knob below for a few sources.
Lol that’s a cop out for, I don’t have anything other than shit from life long politicians who say it’s bad. You’re the one making the claim not me.
