found this while i was surfing -------------------------------------------------------------- please stop the war on pain meds and transfer it to war on abusers of pain med industry quit making restrictive laws infringing on the right of medical care for pain. start punishing those that abuse the pain med industry for personal gain. punish the abuser not the patient. if a doctor over prescribes put them in prison for 20 years and put thm to work in prison hospitals and if a patiant sells their meds they should be in prison along with the crack and heroin abusers. govt needs to sop making laws that infringe on and hurt the law biding citizen and increase the punishment of law breaker enough to deter them from committing the crime. no plea deals allowed. the over restrictive regulations need to be lifted because true pain sufferers are being reduced to nearly nothing more than a blobb of flesh and bones curled up somewhere because of those that have abused the pain industry and the govt regulation that have become over-restrictive and the lax punishment of those same lawbreakers. punish the abuser and permit the chronic pain sufferer to have their meds and also let them travel again the over regulation also prevents those with chronic pain the ability to travel because of the fear doctors have due to over bearing regulations --- expand the computer data base of pain med distribution and link it to state id and drivers license and each dr can have access to the data base before prescribing any pain medication http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/242/062/280/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- i dont know if it will do any good what do you think does it sound like something you would support |

there is no way you can know that after all most swat teams store their
weapons in a vehicle or when not in vehicle behind a locked door in a building for all you know he may have a hidden safe room in his basement with a 3"steel plate door hidden behind a bookcase or some kind of cabinet with a monitored alarm w/video system and if not opened properly the basement is then secured so you can not exit the facility ![]() First of all, we're not talking about swat and where THEY store their weapons Second, anyone with 500 deadly weapons and a crap load of ammo, should be made to prove their killing pieces are safely locked and stored and prove they could never be stolen and used in crime. No, your glove box is not considered safe storage ![]() no we were not i was responding to how the swat team stores their weapons and that he may be storing his which may be more secure than the local govt tactical weapons team |

I seem to recall a saying about lions writing history,,,,,,, there is a tendency to simplify humans into either heroes or villains, maybe recognizing their actual complexity is too much intellectual work,,,, to the victor go the spoils one of those spoils is the wide spread distribution of the writing of the history of the event |

Honestly,it's wrong of people using the skin color to solve problems,I feel very bad about this whole thing because these are people irrespective of their skin black or white no one deserve to be killed in such cold blooded murder.People need to understand and value each others life.If this is about religion then,without judging anyone but is it the Will of God?Why use the name of God in such atrocities? The same could be said of every other religion. Although the leaders don't need to be that smart when the followers are so gullible. religions don't yell,, people yell... ![]() sew dew animals lol |

I cluster 1" at 500 yards and have 26 years experience...you shot 50 rounds and couldn't hit the target every time and can't accurately describe the weapon you were firing...you are no longer worth the time...in this country right now the media breeds hate and brings focus to race... the tensions racially are disturbing then add religion to the mix...there's always been hate for no real reason and it's sad it's at the level it is today you missed it the hate is there for an astounding reason as long as people are distracted by media induced hysteria the elites can fulfill any number of plans to control the masses and enrich their fortunes |

I didn't even know what the battlbox forum was...thanks that's definitely my type of site...as far as gun restrictions etc. there is a staggering correlation between mass shootings and gun free zones...gee wonder why there is a staggering correlation between gun owners and mass shootings ,,,should I wonder why? ![]() shooters are not choosing sites because of gun laws,,, they choose political or personal targets and many times with an expectation of dying,,,, and in this case, which happened in DOWNTOWN fresno,, I doubt the shooter researched gun laws either Strict California Gun Control Impotent to Stop Fresno Attack http://www.breitbart.com/california/2017/04/19/strict-california-gun-control-impotent-stop-fresno-attack/ --------------------------------------------------------- laws do not stop criminals they only infringe on the law biding Ca has some of if not the most stringent gun laws in the country but not 1 of them helped stop these murders but they may have helped them occur due to the infringement those laws had on law biding citizens |

wow really?? u don't think a criminal who wants to kill people isn't aware of gun free zones?! most of these people are cowards to begin with so wouldn't it make sense that they would shoot up a place where they know no one is shooting back??? gun owner doesn't equal mass murderer....I own A LOT of guns and have never once so much as pointed one at another human being... talk s%*t on guns all you want but you better hope you're never in a situation where you need one and don't have it...pencils don't misspell words, cars don't cause accidents and a trigger isn't pulled by the gun no, I dont believe people unstable enough to commit mass shootings have researched the gun laws first,,, noone has argued that gun owner equals mass murderer and noone has talked anything about guns there is a lot of projection happening in this thread from a simple statement that violent people do violent things even though many tangents have tried to lay blame on anything from Obama, to BLM, to muslim names, the analogy that PEOPLE kill is apparently lost,,,,unless you mention guns,,, violent people are under estimated because of the preconceived notions of those that feel they are unstable just because one is unstable does not mean they are not able to process thoughts many unstable people can plan and execute sophisticated crimes |

least restrictive gun laws by state http://www.deseretnews.com/top/3430/0/The-10-states-with-the-least-restrictive-gun-laws.html the restrictiveness of their laws and how they rank on gun deaths compared to other states are all over the chart,,,there is no clear correlation that lax gun laws reduce gun death,, not that this thread was making any argument about gun laws and what are they i said nothing about gun death i said crime rates somehow i thought it was about behavior and i thought someone wondered how and why this happened ---- thus it is all related |

statistically mass murders in america are fractional... very very low especially considering how many gun owners exist in america...typical liberal bs blaming the gun for the shooting...and this guy wanted to kill as many white people as possible yet only got four total...an avid gun enthusiast could've done that with a bb gun...the good ole msm at work again let's blame guns for shootings and make sure racial issues remain a problem for everyone... kind of my point,, blame race or guns or religion,, the same distraction violent people do violent things very good so lets punish the violent people and leave the law biding people alone taking a gun from a law biding person only increases the chances you will be shot by a violent person because if the law biding citizen cant shoot back and the violent one knows it they will become even more violent and shoot more often the states with the least amount of gun control has the lowest crime rate if you don't believe it prove it wrong i know it and if you dont then do your homework and disprove it |

how odd and sad, people are snapping for no apparent reason,,, I hope the victims families receive justice for their loss the apparent reason is that compared too a lot of countries the so called free world and most of all the U S does not have very harsh penalties for major crimes you could import someone from a 3rd world country to kill anyone in a non-death penalty state and they get life so lets see they have steady safe shelter much better medical care 3 meals a day and they are no longer starving and having to hide from political faction that are committing ethnic cleansing to over throw the ruling party basically compared to home they may be in prison but they have it made |

the old cry from the ignorant was better off red than dead well it is better to die free than be squashed to death by overburdenious regulation as how one must live their life problem is too many expect others too fight for that right and refuse too help by standing up for their rights even tho it is someone else's that are being oppressed one of the most idiotic statements is what difference does it make if you are not doing anything wrong --- what they are doing is not the point what is the point we the people were given inalienable rights and they are not to be trampled on... one of these examples is drug testing .... violation of illegal search if no warrant is obtained violation of can not be forced to incriminate yourself both are rights guaranteed be the constitution too many said oh if you are not doing them what does it matter well now you get attacked for saying the wrong thing so free speech is being taken away by the manners police you have to make a cake for someone living the lifestyle your religion does not condone or no religious articles on your desk if you are a govt worker so much for freedom of religion the part of amendment everyone forgets about the state may pass no law establishing a religion, NOR PROHIBITING THE FREE EXERCISE THEREOF the discrimination of one group is ok but dont discriminate on theis group .... oh you have o do this because it discrimination if you dont (bake a cake for a lifestyle you disagree with) but you can openly discriminate against others that are not breaking the law either (you are not allowed to be here because you are legally carrying a firearm) there is much hypocrisy in this great country and the more it crows (grows) [it was a typo but it fits] the less great this country becomes so when the bathroom bills keep getting defeated (as they should the way they are worded) that same defeat should allow anyone that is a law bidding citizen to go anywhere (the correction for bathroom bill is one must use bathroom that is anatomically correct) [get the surgery to change your anatomy and then use that bathroom but idiots in govt are to stupid to know how to fix it |

From McClatchy DC Bureau: Science and technology students at the nation's historically black colleges could get a boost from President Donald Trump's executive order aimed at altering a visa program that brings highly skilled workers to the United States.
Leaders and advocates for historically black colleges and universities have been monitoring the immigration and jobs debate, telling the Trump administration and congressional lawmakers that so-called science, technology, engineering and math graduates from HBCU schools are readily available to fill high-tech jobs that are currently going to foreign workers. http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/white-house/article145320174.html that is a misleading title not only does that haelp black students it helps any student that is an American that is qualified to fill a post they are qualified for |
