Trump protesters smash door, break through barriers - 2 views

  •  
    Despite initial word of gunshots, Albuquerque's police department said on Twitter that there was "no confirmation" of gunshots. "There is no confirmation that any gunshots were fired, contrary to reports. Possible damage to Convention Center Windows by pellet gun," the department tweeted.

    I think it is ridiculous how Trump rallies come to such violence and in some cases Donald Trump even supports the violence by saying in one of his rallies that is someone says something negative about him to throw a tomato at them.

The Tale of Two Second Amendments - 0 views

    I think that this article, although biased, gives a good overview of how divided the conversation of the Second Amendment really is in the united States.

    Cruel and wierd world we live in!
  •  
    Some people these days are crazy. Resort to this crap when they get "mad." Ridiculous.
  •  
    This goes to show that banning guns or putting more restrictions on them does not stop people from killing one another and seriously injuring people. Weapons are just tools in the hands of killers.

unarmed man gunned down by cop - 2 views

  •  
    yeah, this story doesn't seem right through and through. What did the man do to provoke the shooting? Could the woman see he was hurt?

    This is not right first off 1 shoot was enough,and he was in need of help.He wasn't looking for any trouble
  •  
    This is absolutely outrageous! I believe that police officers are over armed and they need to be trained correctly. I don't feel bad for the police officer at all, he had no reason to shoot an innocent man. And to think, the football player was transferring from him school in Florida to a school In Charlotte so that he could be with his fiancee. It's just cruel and terrible what our society has come to.
  •  
    You can never trust anyone anymore. The government is suppose to help benefit and support the people, but they only care about themselves. The people who are suppose to protect us shoot us down in a time of need. We go against one another and fight over unnecessary things. We aren't the Worlds greatest country anymore.
  •  
    This is crazy. The officer had no reason to shoot that man. He was already hurt, couldn't they tell? Police officers need to know what's right and what's wrong because they obviously don't.

South Carolina Officer Is Charged With Murder of Walter Scott - 6 views

  •  
    I just don't understand why deadly force such as a gun was used against man who was unarmed, not verified as dangerous and stopped for a traffic violation. I know police are trained with other tactics to stop an unarmed person from fleeing. Fears for his life? I didn't know someone running from you was so scary.
  •  
    I agree that this officer should be charged with murder. Its shocking because police officers never get punished for things they do are are unjustified. Weather the man took his taser or not, it didn't have to go to extent of being shot and being killed. But from the reading, it says that the taser fell to the ground and to police officer still fires at him 8 times. I completely agree with what happened, it's not usual that police get in trouble for some of the things they do.

Cat saves kid from a dog! - 7 views

  •  
    This dog just randomly attacks this kid and a cat saves him wow that cat is brave.
  • ...7 more comments...
  •  
    This changes my view on cats a bit. As much as I like cats, I didn't think they would defend for someone like that. It's pretty cool.
  •  
    I saw the video on the news the other day and I thought It was cool that the cat had saved the kid form getting hurt even more, the dog attacking the little kid out of nowhere wasn't really cool though. Its a crazy story.
  •  
    This is pretty crazy considering cats are usually scared of dogs. I'm just curious as to why that dog would just randomly attack a little boy. The owners need to do something about that.
  •  
    This is crazy! I didn't even know that the dog got the little boy! I didn't think cats even did that. But, thank gosh it was not as bad as it couldnt have been. If that cat wasnt there then who knows what could of happened to that little boy.
  •  
    I heard that the dog is going to be put down because of this. But I am kind of wondering if the boy did things to the dog before, like throw rocks at it or other things. But that cat was pretty loyal and brave for saving that boy, and probably pretty fearsome too. That dog just ran like it just heard a gun!
  •  
    it was so cool how the cat saved the kid but i think the owner should get in to truble.
  •  
    Exactly why cats are better than dogs! Imagine if the cat wasn't there, the kid possibly could have died!
  •  
    That is pretty brave of a cat to do that but dogs will always be better!
  •  
    So amazing like to watch the video.

    "Transcript: President Obama's address to the nation on the San Bernardino terror attack and the war on ISIS"
  • ...7 more comments...

    I feel like Obama is actually trying to help us because America has done a lot of snooping and getting in other's business these past few years. The bombs in different cities are a huge problem and he's trying to resolve it, but not in war. America is trying to make peace with everyone, but we really can't when there's so much fighting and hate in the world.
  •  
    I agree with what president Obama said, I think that since the attack its finally opening his eyes and realizing that were in danger to snd they need to take action and do something about it.
  •  
    I think that Obama is taking very good steps in the fight against ISIS by showing the international community that we are willing to help and that we need the help of other countries to be able to defeat a force that affects everyone. I think he is doing the right thing with our defense against ISIS getting agents in our country with focusing the fight online and in our immigration process.
  •  
    I agree that Obama should at least act on the threat because of the attack. Its bring violence to his doors that he needs to act upon before its to late that terrorists are running up and down our streets. ( ZAC OLSON )
  •  
    I think that Obama is doing a good job to comfort the concerns of the U.S., and I also think why so many people think the government is doing nothing is because they have to keep some of it secret for our own safety and so ISIS does'nt known our plan.
  •  
    i think obama should act on the threat
  •  
    I believe President Obama has the right idea in taking on terrorists this way because he's not just having us as one country going after ISIS. He's having us as a group of countries go after this group that continues to terrorize for no other reason than for public awareness and publicity on their organization. He also has a good view about the "gun control" with automatic rifles, he is just saying that it's better to make sure that no one who isn't a professional can't use the weapon.
  •  
    In my opinion Obama should take action the way he plans to. How long before these plans come into action?

    doing whats best for it whatever it takes and come out

Great Mills High School shooting: Student gunman dead, two students injured - The Washi... - 6 views

  •  
    The trauma caused through school shootings is spreading across the whole country and it is honestly devastating. I wish that the resource officer wouldn't have had to shoot but I know he did what was best for the school and the other students in the school.

    School shootings are very serious and have gotten worse over time. There has been many shootings to many this year and years before that. There may be something we need to do to make the school more safe so that no one has to get hurt and or die.
  •  
    Reading content like this is very traumatic. Students and teachers should be able to go to school without having to worry about someone coming into the school with a gun. I believe that schools should make an effort to make all schools safer. There have been too many school shootings in America and around the globe.
  •  
    I agree because we should feel safe at school and not have to worry about what might happen, school should honestly be the safest place you can go.

How Donald Trump has enabled the outrageous 'crisis actors' conspiracy in Florida - CNN... - 7 views

  •  
    It's really frustrating to see how grown adults are treating the children that survived this event. Instead of just taking the time to listen to the victims, they belittle them for being young and "ignorant," and are now accusing them of being crisis actors. One of the most important things we need to do during the gun control conversation is listen to survivors of tragedies like this. If anyone knows what they're talking about, it's these kids because they're the ones who lived through it.
