Wild74 Posted May 26, 2014 Author Share Posted May 26, 2014 Elliot Rodger Shooting Prompts Feinstein to Blame NRA ‘Stranglehold’ on GunsRoll Call ^ | May 25, 2014 | Steven Dennis Posted on Sunday, May 25, 2014 4:29:01 PM by Cincinatus' Wife Feinstein questioned why Elliot Rodger was allowed to own guns, and ripped the NRA’s “stranglehold” on Congress. (Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call File Photo) Elliot Rodger’s shooting spree had Sen. Dianne Feinstein lamenting the “stranglehold” the NRA has over gun laws. “The deadly shooting in Isla Vista is heartbreaking,” the California Democrat said Sunday in a statement. “Schools should be places of safety, not where students fear for their lives.” Feinstein questioned why Elliot Rodger was able to legally obtain and keep his guns. “We must ask ourselves if an individual whose family called police with concerns about mental health, who is receiving therapy and who has had several run-ins with police should be allowed to own multiple firearms and hundreds of rounds of ammunition. When anyone, no matter their mental health or history, can so easily obtain any gun they want and as many as they want—we must recognize there is a problem. “Unfortunately the NRA continues to have a stranglehold on Congress, preventing even commonsense measures like universal background checks that have overwhelming support. Americans need to rise up and say enough is enough. Until that happens, we will continue to see these devastating attacks. Shame on us for allowing this to continue.” Separately, Rep. Tim Murphy, R-Pa., pushed for Congress to pass his mental health legislation in the wake of the Elliot Rodger’s rampage in Isla Vista. An effort to pass background checks and a package of mental health initiatives was torpedoed by a GOP-led filibuster in the Senate last year.

DaveTV1 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 One thing that I agree with many of those that commented on this tragedy in California (not on this site) is where were the parents ? They were worried enough about their son to call the police, but they didn't make an effort to contact him. When I was growing up, the last thing that a parent wanted was their child to have any involvement with the police, and if they could stop it they would. I've seen no mention of prescription medication, but I actually wonder if this kid had been already under a doctors care for some sort of ADHD problem.

DLine06 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 The boy was depressed because he wasn't getting any....pitiful....give it a little time, don't go slaughter people It's sad that he didn't have a friend like me...because I would have whipped the tar out of him. I get that feeling of at times not feeling wanted by others of the opposite sex but, too start killing others is an extreme. Man is becoming more and more into themselves lacking empathy and restraining their emotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your attention FOCUSED, Everytime, Guaranteed! LOL! True that... Truthfully, if we look back before the labeling of "ADHD" not to mention the "medicine" for same being a part of the problem...how many kids did we go to school with who had ADHD... now just think about it...were there kids who couldn't keep still, couldn't/wouldn't learn? I can't think of a single one! But one kid, the class clown...I'll never forget this - in 8th grade, we had to recite a speech - he got up, apparently some of the other boys had paid him $1 each to do it... he said... "Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me a beer..." that's about as far as he got before the teacher exploded...and it wasn't a good explosion. There again, he graduated, and in the top of the class.

KirtFalcon Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Back in the 90s there was an American teenager in Singapore who got caught vandalizing cars with spray paint. He was tried and convicted by the local authorities and part of his sentence was to be caned or beaten with a rattan cane as part of his punishment. I remember part of his defense was that he had ADHD so he shouldn't receive the punishment. He was suppose to get four lashes. I remember my CMSgt telling everyone ... "maybe they should give him eight lashes instead of four ... that way hopefully he can concentrate on half of them". :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
