Four armed deputies hide in fear while 17 innocent people are murdered. Then we still have mouth-breathing fuckwits arguing against the right to keep and bear arms.

And the other mouthbreathing fuckwits that think arming teachers would be a better solution than passing background checks.

But then after it became obvious to everyone who knew him and this same Sheriff's Department, as well as the FBI, received dozens of complaints about him, including complaints that specifically said he was going to shoot up a school, nothing was done.

There's actually a 'Red Flag' policy which would have restrained him from obtaining a firearm. Unfortunately Florida doesn't have one.

That are obviously insufficient and not “universal”. Which is kind of the point of people wanting better background checks and to close the background check loophole that allows people to get around them.

Not only that, but the chickenshit moron who had a gun and refused to do anything with it is the same chickenshit moron who had the nerve to insult 2nd Amendment defenders on that CNN circus.

It's called the United STATES of America and any restrictions on the 2nd Amendment belong to STATE control.

Now let's talk about the real solution, which is putting armed citizens in schools who actually know what the fuck they are doing and want to provide this security.

He is not (as far as I am aware) a trained soldier with combat experience, so likely this is the first time he experienced a life and death situation, none of us know how we will react to such a situation, as an example in war situations many soldiers are unable to take a human life. This guy found he was unable to, and is probably very traumatised by that, shaming him in a public forum will only make things worse. Never mind the argument that a uniformed deputy with a pistol against an opponent with an automatic rifle and who does not stick out will only result in the deputies death.

Even the Sheriff said it was the guy's job. There was no automatic rifle. The killer's rifle fired one shot with each pull of the trigger just like the deputy's weapon, the weapon he should have had much more training with than the killer had with his. I'm often left wondering where people get their ideas about guns.

If that had any relevance to this case you wouldn't have failed to quote the next sentence of my post.

But that is not the point, the main point is that none of us who have not been there know how we will act under fire, this guy may ahve failed to act but to shame him in addition to the other guilt he no doubt has is pretty bad. You know I predict he will kill himself, how are you going to feel about that?

Had he done his job the death toll would have been lower. He should be charged as an accessory to multiple counts of murder. Instead we have ignorant people all over this country brazenly taking the opportunity to try to make gun-owners in general feel guilty. My guns weren't there. The only ones that left my house that day were the three that my niece, her girlfriend and I carry with us.

I don't wish to make gun-owners feel guilty at all, in fact I am in the process of getting my license so am in favour of soem gun ownership. Look I agree he failed at his job, but calling him out like he is getting does no one any good, and none f us know how we will react in that situation so it is a little hypocritical I think. It also feeds into the whole failed masculinity thing, the people in question on FB were having a circle jerk about how they would have been perfect and this guy was not fit to like their boots. It's all just big dicks and rambo impersonations and treating someone like shit because you think (not you the people on FB) would have been perfect and are therefore more manly than the deputy is frankly abhorrent.

It was HIS JOB. If he couldn't act under pressure then he should have never taken a job which requires a person to act under pressure. Teenagers died because he was the person in that position instead of someone who would have acted.

But that is my point about soldiers, we know that a fair number cannot kill when the time comes, but we forgive them, why is this guy not given the same courtesy. Don't get me wrong I wish there had been a way to find out he could not do it before hand, but to shame him afterwards is really wrong as far as I think.
