Calls for stronger gun control laws in the U.S. have flooded social media after three people were killed and at least 15 others injured in a mass shooting at a food festival in California.
In a statement, California Governor Gavin Newsom said the incident was"nothing short of horrific," while President Donald Trump took to Twitter to urge people to"be careful and safe." Others, however, questioned how the shooting could have happened in a state that already has some of the strictest gun laws in the country.
Others took a stronger tack, asserting that Sunday's shooting was a sign that gun control legislation doesn't work.
We have rules for driving because of the few idiots that make it dangerous. As it should be for guns.
Hmmm, I wonder if law abiding citizens were allowed to bear arms and protect themselves could have saved lives?
Nevada doesn't. Arizona doesn't. The internet doesn't. Domestic terrorists and ammosexuals don't care about state lines on a map.
GunControlNow trends after GilroyShooting as people point out California has some of the most restrictive firearms law Read your text again, hypocrites. Slowly.
It's a lot of Trump trolls throwing out whataboutism and every other logical fallacy in the sink.
California has tightest gun control in Nation- besides Chicago, I suggest you folks in California start arming yourselves so at least you can defend yourself and family!
How many SANE people go on shooting sprees? The answer, none! No SANE person would ever do this but a SANE person should have the right to protect themselves. The issue is MENTAL HEALTH! GunRightsNow
Mexico has tough gun laws and is run by drug dealers. Let’s hold the public more accountable. Search ppl. No bags or backpacks. Suck it backpackers.
It's ConstitutionalRepublic with BillofRights among them 2ndAmendmentRight Liberals always play the anti-2nd A. card when there is a shooting. How about poor/no parenting?Family breakdown?Mental Illness? Drug/alcohol misuse?Sociopaths? LIBERALS DON'T WANT TO DISCUSS CAUSES!
Perhaps the USA needs walls around all 50 states to keep out all the dangerous Americans who are constantly shooting other Americans? Having an angry POTUS who verbally attacks other American leaders and entire cities, is not helping. 🇺🇸🔫
What good are state gun laws if other states don’t have them. Federal gun control is the only solution.
People can't even let the bodies be removed before they politicize evil.
