Thanks Coward Sheriff, your sidestepping rant has justified the actions of these students. You're focussing on the wrong statistics, gun crime and not massacres, which, after Yemen, the USA comes in at number 2 for highest rate, per capita, of massacres: http://www.news.com.au/world/middle-east/the-only-country-with-more-mass-shootings-per-capita-than-the-us/news-story/ba8e12b6db0c65ac18ca69c53d97c9c4 Your failure to even acknowledge reforms to gun control as being a very real and viable solution to reducing the occurrence of massacres in the US further illustrates your own ignorance. Children go to schools in 1st World Countries, excepting the US, safe with the knowledge that they don't need everyone armed to the teeth with guns to protect them from being massacred. Same with people in public spaces. If you look at statistics of gun control, access to gun types, and massacre rates, you'd actually see everything else the Republicans are proposing in response to massacre preventions is futile.

Continued 3: Here is a list. ONE of these things is not like the other, Mayors Office Police Department Sheriffs Department City Council County Council Local courts Federal Courts Supreme Court White House Congress State Legislatures The EPA the Department of fish and wildlife FBI NOAA IRS DHHS HUD DOE Public Schools Do you see the pattern? Those are ALL government buildings. Republicans believe they should ALL be protected with Armed Security Democrats believe ALL of them should be protected by armed security EXCEPT public schools. Also, why is the murder rate in LONDON, which has a gun ban higher than in NYC which does not? Why is gun crime UP 45% in London, over 2500 last year in JUST London alone, not including the rest of the UK? Why is their violent crime rate higher than America's Why do 10,000 Sheriffs and police officers OPPOSEgun control? You are the ignorant little s**t getting people killed: http://sunshinestatenews.com/story/listen-parkland-hero-onus-cruz-rampage-bel

The shooting victims and families of the deceased--the REAL VICTIMS, not fame WHORES David Hogg and Emma Gonzales have 1) Told those repugnant fame whores to shut the f**k up and quit using their names for policies they dont support and THEY are placing blame exactly where it belongs and are suing: Broward County, county administrator Bertha Henry, Broward County Public Schools, Broward County Public Schools Superintendent Robert Runcie, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office and Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel. The Broward County School Board, Broward County Sheriff’s Office, the FBI and the Florida Department of Children and Families received a separate letter of intent to pursue legal action from the Berman Law Group, on behalf of Laman and his parents Now seriously, GFY, you ignorant s**t. People are dying because of your cowardice and cowardly policies, while the people you vote for sure as hell protect themselves with armed security. YOU are repugnant!

(Continued)... indeed, the vast majority of ALL gun murders mass and otherwise are gang & organized crime related. Another reason Cruz had not been removed from that school or disarmed is because of Obama's "restorative justice" policies, which Broward had implemented, and which seek to keep dangerous students IN SCHOOLS . Black teachers joined by the NAACP are already suing because of this policy, and it has already made schools less safe! Teachers and students are being assaulted because they know that the school are punished if they suspend too many students. 5) NOBODY DIED because the 2nd Amendment has been protected,. The students and families of the students who were SHOT are putting the blame EXACTLY where it belongs, on the Sheriff and on the School and School superintendent who knew and had been warned over 50 times, but DID NOTHING because they were following Obama's MORONIC policy, which keeps dangerous kids in schools, & because they cowered outside

1) THERE IS NO "increase in gun related massacres". The incidents of "mass" shootings (4 people or more) is DECREASING, as are school shootings, and the VAST majority of "mass shootings" are GANG and drug-trafficking, human-trafficking, and sex-trafficking related. 3) I DO KNOW, and you clearly havent even been following the story closely or you would know too. Witnesses confirmed it. Stop shooting off your mouth about subjects about which you clearly haven't even bothered to get informed. Like the fame whores Hogg and Gonzalez, standing atop dead bodies to meet famous people and promote an agenda those heroes OPPOSED. 4) They SHOULDN'T had to have died. And they wouldn't have had 1) the Sheriff done HIS job and responded to the dozens of incidents they had responded to regarding Cruz. 2) The school officer and the deputies had not cowered outside, and entered the building to stop the shooter. But more importantly if 3) Cruz had been taken out of that school and disarmed but

Really these stupid backpacks are a joke. The gun issue is a bully issue. My friend just took her kid out of school cus of bulling wake up American it's not a gun issue they can make bomb's off the internet.. so get some medal detectors & cameras all the way AROUND , the kid the mother pulled out was dreading to go to school, And his grades were failing. You ppl will never get it.

What the hell?!(not you)
