Will Connecticut school shooting spur gun control action?

Police audio recordings from Newtown, Conn., reveal a chaotic scene as a gunman opened fire on students and faculty at Sandy Hook Elementary School in one of the deadliest school shootings in American history.

Soon after the horrific elementary school shooting in Connecticut Friday, White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters that "I do not think today is [the] day" to have "the usual Washington policy debates" over gun control.

Yet even before he spoke, the debate was already being revived on social media sites and cable news. The arguments from both sides are familiar enough at this point that we need not re-air them now - you recall them from the conversation that took place after other recent mass shootings: Aurora, Tuscon, Virginia Tech, the temple in Wisconsin, the mall in Oregon earlier this week. The question in the wake of the latest shooting spree - in which the 27 victims included 20 small children - is whether this will be the incident that spurs lawmakers to pass gun control measures that have long languished.

Gun Control Debate Sparked Again

During his 2008 presidential campaign, then-candidate Barack Obama vowed to renew the assault weapons ban. Like many other Democrats, he then effectively dropped the issue. In recent years, members of the president's party have made a tactical retreat on gun control issues in an apparent attempt to boost their prospects in areas of the country with strong support for gun ownership. (Watch a discussion of the dynamic, which took place following the Aurora shooting in July, at left.) 

In an October presidential debate against Mitt Romney, Mr. Obama was asked what his administration has "done or planned to do to limit the availability of assault weapons." He opened his response by stating, "We're a nation that believes in the Second Amendment, and I believe in the Second Amendment." Mr. Obama went on say that "weapons that were designed for soldiers in war theaters don't belong on our streets."

"And so what I'm trying to do is to get a broader conversation about how do we reduce the violence generally," he said. "Part of it is seeing if we can get an assault weapons ban reintroduced. But part of it is also looking at other sources of the violence."

The president can prioritize gun control legislation, but it is up to Congress to pass it. And there, gun control advocates have repeatedly been frustrated. Despite controlling both houses of Congress and the White House after the 2008 election, Democrats declined to re-introduce the federal assault weapons ban, which expired in 2004. (When Republicans took control of the House in 2011, the chance for passage dropped to near-zero.) In 2009, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., was among 58 senators to back an amendment allowing a person holding a concealed weapon permit in one state to hide his firearm when visiting another state.

Schieffer on shooting: "We are going to see some change"

After Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., and others were attacked in Tucson in January 2011, Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, D-N.Y., whose husband was killed in a 1993 shooting, introduced legislation to ban the high-capacity ammunition clips used by the shooter. (Those clips would have been banned had the assault weapons ban been reinstated.) The measure garnered more than 100 cosponsors but was not brought up for consideration by House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. Indeed, the only movement in recent years on guns has been in the opposite direction: They include measures that allow guns in bars in Virginia and New Mexico, expanded concealed carry in Michigan and elsewhere, and a Supreme Court decision striking down a ban on handguns and a trigger lock requirement in the District of Columbia

Details of the weapons used in Connecticut are still emerging, but CBS News has reported that there were two guns found with the shooter: A Glock and a Sig Sauer nine millimeter. Both are handguns, but both have the capability to be used with the high-capacity clips that McCarthy sought to ban. In the shooters' car was a .223 caliber semi-automatic assault rifle. It is not yet clear if that weapon was used in the massacre.

Remote Neural Stimulation and Recording

The type of "mind control" we talk about at MoFK has nothing to do with subconscious messages through advertising and television. It's not related to flickering lights, or "brain wave entrainment." For the effects we have noticed, these things are really, really stupid suggestions as mechanisms.

Real mind control involves the activation and suppression of action potentials, the firing of an individual neuron, in a pattern which creates a real effect in the brain of humans. It can so subtle, you might not even notice it happening to you. Neurons fire in patterns, and in groups, and the result of these firing patterns is thoughts, feelings, movements, etc. It is scientifically possible to cause these firing patterns to be activated remotely, without the use of an implant, by "injecting" electricity into individual neurons using advanced technology.

This is done by teleporting charge via entanglement, something that has been alluded to in recently published research.

For the last 5 decades, U.S. intelligence has done a significant amount of research and development into a technology called "TEMPEST." This technology was originally used in order to reconstruct usable information from monitors, integrated circuits, etc in order to remotely surveil electronic devices. Later, technology was developed which was able to do the reverse, and cause these machines to act in a certain manner.

Human brains are, for all intents and purposes purposes, advanced computers whose mechanism of action is the product of electrical impulses, and the technology surrounding "TEMPEST" could be modified to take control of, and remotely surveil the thoughts and feelings of human beings.


Throw in a "bit" of neuroscience research, and you have the proverbial Manchurian Candidate... and with a bit of infrastructure build out, Orwell's prophesy fulfilled.

There's proof that this technology is perfected, and it's all around you. A Lockheed Martin researcher spoke about it publicly in 1999, and it may have gotten him killed. John Norseen had a lot to say about mind control. NASA has talked about its potential use in airports. There are a significant number of victims complaining about it all over the world.

If the technology is sufficiently advanced enough, it can be so subtle you won't even notice it. If you look at the big picture though, you'll probably agree it might be happening.

It appears the United States Military used it to cover up the existence of a network of spy satellites.

There's a significant amount of public research in the field, imagine where the military is.

We are trying to save the world from a tyrannical intergovernmental organization that is hell bent on destroying our species. Please help by reading the links below, and then acting. I'd like it if the first action you took was telling everyone you know to read the same thing. This will start what has been called an awakening at which point public knowledge of something really insidious might help to stop it from happening.
It's also possible to destroy entanglement, which might be the equivalent of a modern day exorcism, or 'freeing yourself from the matrix'. More about that here: http://unduecoercion.blogspot.com/2012/12/the-science-of-satan.html

A pattern in history, we believe it is a map and a signature, proving that the 'voice of god' technology, has been given to humanity.

Well if teachers had guns none of this would have happened. A ban will only stop law abiding citizens from obtaining guns not criminals they have guns illegally anyway.More guns to good citizens makes for a more secure America.Think about it no one that follows laws has guns then criminals that still do have them can rob and kill anyone they want knowing they will not be shot back at.

Keep selling weapons to just anyone, I guess 20 children and 7 adults is not enough. Frustrates me the fact that there are still people defending their rights for carrying a gun after this. How many lives does it take for self centered people (in the name of protection) to realize that if there is a complete disarm, they only way bad people can attack you is with a knife or a baseball bat. So yeah... keep them coming, let see how many more will it take for the people to realize that weapons is not the only way to preserve peace. If you they want guns so badly, at least sell only none lethal ammo or something.

Yet another case where many innocent people died because of one person's obsession with guns. I think gun owners in this country have proven to be undeserving of the freedoms and access to weaponry they currently enjoy.

Gun owners should be required to have insurance for each gun they own. The more powerful the gun, the higher the insurance premium. When a tragedy like this happens, the insurance companies would be required to compensate the victims. This means that it would be up to the insurance companies to determine the risk of insuring each gun. I am going to go on a limb here, but I would suspect that having unstable teenagers in the home of a potential policy owner, at the very minimum, would require a hefty insurance premium for each gun. The high insurance premiums would probably have made it prohibited for this woman to own so many guns. That would have undoubtedly either prevented this tragedy from happening, or at the very least, it would have greatly reduced the number of victims. This way, the government is not preventing anybody from owning guns, the government is simply requiring that they be properly insured. Much the same way, the government requires that each of our vehicles we drive be properly insured. I personally would love to own a few more cars and trucks, but it is always that monthly insurance premium that discourages me from doing that.

Hey danny boy, since you 'think' you need an assault rifle for self-defense at home, here's a good question for you:

What will make you less likely to ever have to use lethal force to defend yourself or your family?
A. Being alert and aware of your surroundings
B. Being mentally prepared to defend yourself
C. Being armed with your gun
D. Being skilled with your gun
E. All of the above
F. A and B Only
G. None of the above: Hire a body guard
