All of them?

Maybe better security at their school?

1940's 220,000 ss killed 11 million unarmed ... ask any jew

ignore any petitions.

Ok I truly feel horrible this happened and the cops are the weak link. How is this the companies fault. I have been to areas where people walk right out a bar/restaurant with families jumping into the car and no one says anything. While watching this.

Desperate to point the blame towards anything but the shooter.

Don’t believe that !

And where did he buy the food he ate, the car he drove, the clothes he wore?

That should achieve FA. Unless gun violence is turned on the sellers & supporters there will be no end to the insane distortion of the right to bear arms.

Retrieved? Or Purchased?

The rifle that the shooter used was not made by Armalite. It was made by a company called Daniel Defense (DDM4 V7) & is more related to an M16. And you are not defining “assault weapon”. Your laziness is embarrassing.

This is not right! You can’t blame an inanimate object for a mass shooting🤨 they should be suing their first responders…they should be suing the PERSON who actually did it😡 they should be trying to get better mental illness care for people😡 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

No such thing as an 'assault weapon'

I would refuse. If he capitulates to their request, he is agreeing that his business and the law protecting our ability to defend ourselves is wrong and should not exist. Never give in to peer pressure.

It was the shooters fault Commies not the gun store owner 💯🔥🐒

After the Robb Elementary shooting, some Uvalde parents are choosing private or online educationUvalde parents are now trying to plan for the back-to-school season and facing tough choices over their children’s education and safety. Some are keeping their public schools. Some are choosing homeschooling and others are looking at private schools. This is exactly what GovAbbott wants. He's trying to push people into private schools where the republican party invests. This is exactly what GovAbbott and his funders want: public school failure so they can replace them with private “Christian” madrassas and suck up all the public school funds. Dead kids are part of their design.
