I assume they sent Trump there to charge in and save the day? -- HoosWillWin 03/20/2018 12:49PM

If only the other students had been armed this wouldn't have happened. ** -- FfxStationHokie 03/20/2018 11:09AM

If the resource officer hadn't been armed, there'd be one less dead teen. -- Hokie5150 03/20/2018 11:46AM

Wait, are you suggesting disarming the school resource officer? -- Freddyburg Hokie 03/20/2018 3:49PM

It does illustrate why assault-rifle bans will prevent mass shootings -- Fuzzy Dunlop 03/20/2018 4:19PM

Sarcasm ** -- HokieDan95 03/20/2018 4:10PM

Or if John McClain had been teaching English class. ** -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 11:32AM

If you need a teacher, it has to be Samuel L Jackson in 187 ** -- WahooMatt05 03/20/2018 11:52AM

If there is one, good chance he/she already has. But, as a non religious -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 10:46AM

Best part is all your foaming at the mouth and hyperbole -- TomKazanski 03/20/2018 11:16AM

LOL, got any support for that assertion? Even by the NRA’s claims, there -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 11:22AM

Only 5 million? Surprised that the Lib/Progressives cannot just completely -- Tuckahokie 03/20/2018 11:25AM

It's not their dues-paying members that buy congressmen. It's the -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 11:29AM

Or you could actually look something up - link -- 111Balz 03/20/2018 11:44AM

...a second opinion (link) -- Tuckahokie 03/20/2018 11:50AM

It is easy to poo poo the possible influence of $200 million+ in spend; it -- 111Balz 03/20/2018 12:26PM

It's also easy to ignore the possible influence of the roughly 150 million -- Hokie5150 03/20/2018 12:38PM

Why do you think the NRA spends so much on influence ads? ** -- 111Balz 03/20/2018 12:40PM

I would submit that while the NRA has influence...it is the much larger -- Tuckahokie 03/20/2018 12:34PM

How so? How much strings attached money do they give politicians? -- 111Balz 03/20/2018 12:39PM

And the main thing is any Republican in a rural district that compromises -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 11:47AM

Or the citizens of the district -- hoothat 03/20/2018 3:43PM

No. I'm talking about the NRA and gun industry drumming candidates out who -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 3:53PM

And there lies your problem -- hoothat 03/20/2018 4:00PM

97% of Americans support expanded background checks. Pretty sure that's -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 4:10PM

Two things -- hoothat 03/20/2018 4:13PM

I suspect it comes from here (link). I honestly don't understand why anyone -- Hoodafan 03/20/2018 4:38PM

You should take a look at that poll -- hoothat 03/20/2018 4:50PM

I did briefly. Odd that link is slightly different than the one linked in -- Hoodafan 03/20/2018 5:08PM

I am not against background checks for gun purchases -- hoothat 03/20/2018 5:19PM

So is your question...."got a link"? :) -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 4:21PM

Cool -- hoothat 03/20/2018 4:49PM

No, it's more that gun voters were more likely to be single issue voters -- WahooMatt05 03/20/2018 11:35AM

I was watching the Ken Burns documentary -- Lupos 03/20/2018 11:03AM

Very different in crucial ways. -- DanTheFan 03/20/2018 11:52AM

Banning all guns is not the goal for most people ** -- WahooMatt05 03/20/2018 11:12AM

No, but it is a great scare tatic ** -- FfxStationHokie 03/20/2018 11:15AM

Lagavulin? Easily my favorite scotch, but you gotta like smokey ** -- hoolstoptheheels 03/20/2018 1:04PM

Someone once gave me a bottle of Ardbeg... holy smokes (pun intended). -- BocaHoo91 03/20/2018 1:49PM

Ardbeg's Corryvreckan is pretty damn good, but you do have to like the big -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 1:54PM

Yes, Lagavulin 16 and Laphroaig Lore are my go-tos. -- WahooRQ 03/20/2018 1:21PM

I recommend Bowmore if you haven't tried it. -- hoolstoptheheels 03/20/2018 1:39PM
