My father always said that you need to be prepared to die at any time. He meant to always be right with god just in case you are breathing your last. Always wearing a clean pair of undies is important too. Undertakers get enough to laugh at. My mother always told me that one! 🤣

Macho men should pull their head in, and allow virtuous woman to have a greater say in politics. It seems totally unfair that in the procreation process men have the pleasure and woman have the pain. Mothers are special. They are a gift of God.
I am grateful for Godly women. My life has been inestimably bettered by the help and influence of precious Ladies. My Mum went through the jaws of death to birth me. I can honestly say that I wouldn’t be here without my Mum. My precious Wife completes my life and has birthed my children.
We see those distraught Mothers who lost a precious child in the Uvalde massacre. Men cannot begin to understand the pain and suffering that those Mothers have to bare.
So that is good reason why we should listen to those distraught Mothers, when they cry out for Gun control.

No thanks redback...you can be sheeple if you want though... Many Christians including friends and workers are conscientious objectors with the notion to not bear arms. Seems hypocritical to carry a gun while being conscientious objectors. I did not enlist as a CO you can only claim CO status if you are drafted.

Christians do you stop to think that if you take someone’s life that you are taking away their hope of redemption, according to your beliefs? Life is about choices and consequences, choose wisely....

As a father, my grief on losing my son was not comparable to the grief that my wife still feels over 10 years later. It was by far the worst thing to have ever happened to me mind.....

I've not been in your situation, but I know how my wife and I would grieve how we had lost one of our children. It has to do with one's love and respect for life, of our own and of others. I'm sorry for your loss.

I'm sorry for your loss. A long time ago now. Not looking for sympathy, but pointing out that mothers grieve very differently to fathers in my personal experience; a.nd according to others I've spoken to. I spoke to one lady soon after getting back to work (one of the friends as it happens) who had lost a baby over 50 years earlier and told me that she still thought about him every single day; that tallies with my knowledge of my wife's grief. Grief does know mothers and fathers differently.

Dan your link is for : after the horse has bolted. Sorry but The defence you put up re mass shootings, is not common sense. Expecting school teachers and preschool teachers to carry a gun in their pocket is ridiculous imo. And I agree with what Bob said re guns in schools. I am saddened to know theres another christian worshiper on here advocating for the abundance of guns in USA. I believe we should be advocating in how to move forward in a society re problems. An attitudinal shift.
I'm not necessarily advocating that every teacher arm themselves, but how about some commonsense precautions, starting with locking the school doors when classes are in session.
The answer isn't to cancel civil rights or change the constitution. That will never happen, guns will not be banned, and most anti-gun liberals can't even define what an assault weapon is. So we're back to square one.
These 2 rifles are nearly identical in function, they are essentially both .223 caliber semi-automatics, and both come with extended magazines. Where's the logic in banning the AR15 while permitting the Mini14?
The real purpose of the second amendment is that a well armed society can never succumb to government tyranny, we saw a little example of that type of authoritarian government with the Australian covid crackdown.

Some American people seem to have a death wish. Does not make sense to peace loving people, who have used common sense and dealt with the problem.

Sure you helped us out in WW2, but that doesn't have any relevance to making sensible Gun Laws to protect people. War is entirely different situation to civil life. The World would be a much better place without War, but that is wishful thinking. But steps can be taken to minimise slaughter in countries where peace is supposed to be. Most important step is ban Assault Rifles, no civilian has a need for one, or own one. Really not rocket science.

They are not banning "assault rifles" they are trying to ban semi-auto rifles. Redback

A ridiculous situation in America, a mass shooting every day. That is not the way a civilised country should behave. It can be corrected, if the almighty dollar is out of the equation.

I don't believe that is accurate redback. A mass shooting is Four or more dead per incident. In America it generally comes in Ones and Twos. gunviolencearchive.org will correct your narrative.

Every day, more than 110 Americans are killed with guns and more than 200 are shot and wounded. The effects of gun violence in America extend far beyond these casualties—gun violence shapes the lives of millions of Americans who witness it, know someone who was shot, or live in fear of the next shooting.
And Wally reckons that people in countries with strict Gun Laws are the victims. This old man shakes his head in disbelief. Perhaps I am becoming old and senile.
