Texas shooting: Senator who represented Sandy Hook 'begs' for gun action after massacre

"I'm here on this floor to beg, to literally get down on my hands and knees and beg my colleagues. Find a path forward here. Work with us to find a way to pass laws that make this less likely."Pic: AP"Sandy Hook will never, ever be the same and this community in Texas will never, ever be the same," he added.

MARJORY STONEMAN DOUGLAS HIGH SCHOOL, February 2018 Attack leaves 14 students and three staff members dead at the school in Parkland, Florida. The 20-year-old suspect charged with murder. VIRGINIA TECH, April 2007 A 23-year-old student kills 32 people on the campus in Blacksburg, Virginia, more than two dozen others are wounded. The gunman then kills himself.

He asked:"As a nation, we have to ask, when in God's name are we going to stand up to the gun lobby?"Tuesday's attack in Texas was the deadliest shooting at a US grade school since Sandy Hook.

The GUNMAN DID NOT ACT ALONE! He was enabled by all current & former Republican members of the Congress & Senate for the last 50 years, by the NRA, by the gun industry & money donating lobbyists, by the 74 million who voted for Trump, by G. Bush, McConnell, Cruz, Cornyn, etc.

What has he been doing about it for the last 9 years?

It isn't the guns. What do both of these incidents have? An unstable person involved. Control freaks have an issue with actually getting involved with actual problems. They don't want to get their hands dirty with being involved on a personal level. It's difficult for them...

The 2nd Ammendment is needed more than ever in the face of a tyrannical Cultural Marxist Government.

I think we have a serious mental health problem with criminally ill people loose on the streets. Action is needed there.

Yeah, but we have all seen this 'movie' before...the media circus, the politicians outraged, prayers and vows by the public and still nothing will happen and there will be no change!

The only thing he should be begging for is more armed security in our schools.

no blood, no bodies, no crime

Texas school shooting: Children as young as 7 killed ‘horrifically, incomprehensibly’ in America’s latest mass homicideEchoes of Sandy Hook massacre as Texas shooter opened fire on primary school pupils, reportedly with an assault rifle Gotta let be that 2nd amendment bill of rights. Never a 'good shooter' there when u want one. Should disarm the population is only answer. Should've had an armed guard in every school and the women teachers armed too as part of a women's militia. So blame the school authorities for not having an armed guard and the state authorities for not having a women's militia. Women Rule!

Salvador Ramos as: Everything we know about Texas school mass shooterThe 18-year-old Uvalde high school student carried out the worst mass shooting at a US elementary school since Sandy Hook, officials said We did it with the TSA after Sept 11. Before that many airports had little or no security at all. Passenger searches were not standardized. I hope we learn a lesson here. Guns arent going away any time soon. Too many people own them. We need a national security for all schools. These incidents happen even in states that have passed strict gun controls. New York is an example. We need security and/or police officers at every school in America! The same way there are armed guards at every airport, bank, casino, etc...this is a massive security failure!
