Once again Schoollord is out here pointing out what needs to be done. Once again, I ask, How are you going to do it? What are you going to do about the black market? Next come the CDC statistics, except for the ones that show the murder rate has actually been pretty stable over the last few years and that those numbers are down from the numbers we saw in the 80's and mid 90's.
The rapidly increasing gun violence and shootings in the society with it's numerous possible causes has a potential of being a persistent societal threat.
Gun violence is already a persistent societal threat. For decades around 30,000 Americans are killed with guns in the US each year. We are shocked when a single gunman kills three or twenty but more than 80 Americans are killed with guns each day. This must stop. Guns are a huge part of the homicide and suicide problems.
Anticipating the event is the best way to prevent workplace violence. The article does not go into the details of why they employee was let go nor the circumstances. Was he violent? depressed? combative?
All companies are going to have turnover. Small companies probably can't afford a full time security guard at the front door. But when an employee is terminated under "difficult" circumstances, there should be some sort of enhanced security put in place, at least for a few days.
Colt said "Anticipating the event is the best way to prevent workplace violence" as well as preventing it. Do not hire gun owners is a good prevention.
Please link where you get your information. From what I have read from the CDC and Uniformed Crime Report from the FBI, your numbers do not add up. They are completely off and you have not been able to back up what you say. Working in law enforcement everyday and dealing with society contradicts your arguments.
Educator...close to 70% of all homicides and close to 60% of all suicides are gun related. Less than 0.05% of the homicides are people pushed out of windows so what is your point?
This was just a horrible shooting...Has NOTHING to do with Obama of the Left or Right. Why do some defile the memory of victims by bringing politics into such things?...
