Ban assault weapons. They have no place on the streets of America, they were designed for war and combat. The gun manufacturer's should not be allowed to market them to teens or men who need to feel, strong? invincible.? Access to these weapons should not be a "right" when children are slaughtered and have the right to life taken away from them.

[phoenixlight]

He thought the suspected shooter was a 'barricaded subject'? but didn't realize kids were in there too? Really?? Weren't they screaming?!?!?

[ellenbenson]

NONE of us can afford ignoring climate change. Wake up Manchin (and all your Republican pals) look around our country, look around the world - this is the greatest danger to humanity - not inflation.

[ChildPerson]

Did you listen to the children screaming?

[RodolfoLRoiz]

WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH MANCHIN????
FOR EVERYTHING ELSE, VOTE BLUE!!!
VOTE BLUE!!!! VOTE BLUE!!!! VOTE BLUE!!! VOTE BLUE!!!!

[mariobalderas]

accountability for Abbott his not doing nothing to help with guns he rather promote guns

[ernestchacon]

Ppl from West Virginia need to stop their stereotype of being uneducated and vote Senator Manchin out of office, he's in it for himself not for them.

[enterthecarp]

All should be fired. Yep and yep.
Top down TOP DOWN

[thomiempryoriii]

Should they be on Administration suspension and get paid, they shouldn't get paid...

[efrain]

I wish you would talk about Joe Manchin donors and the money he makes from the fuel fossil industry.

[laynepaige]

I don’t think it’s police incompetence, they did nothing ON PURPOSE.

[olakowski]

Fortunately young voters will make manchen accountable

[alfredtrerotola]

Should our police have to go up against rocket launchers too? Where do we draw the line?

[jasonw]

Bernie is dead on. Manchin needs to get on board quickly or somebody's gotta sit him down, have a long chat

[eternalskeptic]

He invited
He incited
They rioted
Then he denied it
Even though he'd implied it
Now he MUST be indicted!

[Omni]

Too bad that Indiana good Samaritan wasn't at Uvalde.

[mmoarchives]

why does the police need a master key to go through a door? were they really going to knock on the door and ask nicely to give up? not buying it, i'm seeing nothing but excuses

[clearfield]

Yes, according to the NRA, the GOP & the Supreme Court we need MORE guns, less regulations and to make it even more exciting - more conceal carry laws. We need many many more guns. Guns for everyone. Guns at picnics. Guns at brisques. Guns at bar mitzvahs. Guns all and everywhere.

[Mushroomstops]

I agree with Grandpa. We ain’t gonna get the truth.

[rolandthethompsongunner]

Interesting that the shooter could lock the door to a classroom but teachers couldn’t to keep the shooter out of the school or classrooms? More than the police in this incident are to blame.
