Second cup of Coffee Talk

[puckhead]

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick says there are too many entrances and exits to schools, and that is why shootings are able to happen. Quote snippet: "Had there been one single entrance possibly for every student, maybe he would have been stopped"

the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is fewer doors.

Does he though??? lol

Trump Tower fire is second 2018 blaze in sprinkler-free residential tower

Obviously - he tried to prevent its improvement lol

President Trump's centerpiece Manhattan skyscraper opened in 1984, but does not have sprinklers on its residential floors, a measure required in new buildings since 1999.

President Trump, then a private citizen and property developer, lobbied to try and prevent the mandate at the time.

Police: Suspect in Texas school shooting used father's guns

Let the father also be held accountable since he didn't properly lock his guns.

Sadly people on the responses are already calling her a crisis actor and reading from a script.

I sat downtown this morning and watched the sun come up and the rain wash away both the hope and despair of the previous day. And also what looked like half of chocolate eclair. The rain almost washed it to a sewer drain but at the last second a rat grabbed it. Well done rat. I nodded in approval and he nodded back.

Finally my friend Jones Falls showed up, slightly dragging his right leg - his body beginning to give out after almost seven decades. I pushed him his coffee and he sat. I caught a whiff and it was not pleasant. Old Jones Falls doesn't know much or care much about hygiene, but he does know horses.

Gonna be a muddy one today he told me, but also told me it don't matter - they can't stop Justify. Only one who can is Quip because he's been seeing Robinson Cano's doctor. Allegedly. He told me to keep an eye on Lone Sailor because he's a sneaky horse, whatever that means.

We shook hands and he got up and said he would see me again before the Belmont. I drank my coffee, got up and left.

The figures ... do not suggest schools are more dangerous than combat zones. After all, there are more than 50 million students in public elementary and high schools and only about 1.3 million members of the armed forces. So far in 2018, a member of the military has been about 40 times as likely to be killed as someone is to die in a school shooting."

Only 40 times more likely?!? Sounds awesome! Obviously there is no problem here.

Only hundreds of kids being killed. They're safer than combat personel so we're all good.

Seriously though, lots of these kids are probably pretty bad kids, some may even be minorities.

Statistically safer is the best kind of safer!

As Mr. Patrick greeted parishioners at Arcadia First Baptist Church on Sunday morning, he got an enthusiastic greeting from Robert Ross, 69, who has lived in Santa Fe all his life and has a nephew who once played football with the gunman. Mr. Ross said he believed the solution to school violence was not gun control, but faith. He blamed the shooting on what he called a cultural decay exemplified by legal abortion, gay marriage and the separation of church and state.

“We wonder why this is happening,” he said. “Satan’s right there. He’s always putting his foot in everything.”
