Louisville’s mass shooting, which left six dead, including the shooter, and another 8 injured, was a devastating and remarkable blow to the Louisville community that won’t soon be forgotten.

  1. Gun sales need to have a proceed before the sale is authorized 3 days to check backgrounds is not long enough to check nation wide. What are you NRA afraid of that your members are not law abiding and care more about 2nd amendment and not children. So it gets a little harder so what it might mean a child’s life is saved because of it

    1. Ok let’s play your game let’s set up a situation, a young woman lets say 23, breaks up with her boyfriend he threatens her life, she goes to the police they don’t do anything (they have done this before.) now she goes to get a gun to protect herself, but is told she has to wait 3 days, you want that woman to wait 3 days with no protection against that man.

      Secondly you have no idea what you’re talking about and how incredibly fast it is to do a background check we are in the age of high speed internet and rapid information if you want to look up how fast is a dolphin is you could have it in a second, oh but it takes too long, yeah what you think they are using carrier pidgin?

      Do you not understand how a high speed connected database works?

  2. Prayers for this doctor.  “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28

  3. Here’s a thought. Maybe if the democrat run cities with democrat DA’s started actually punishing people for violent crime this type of incident would be deterred.

    1. @Scott Eyers once again emotional appeals have no bearing other than personal response. It is a plea on the emotions. Which has no bearing on truth. The doctor claims his human experience. I can just deny/reject his experience. Because I don’t feel the same.

    2. @Why So Religious

      This is true, the doctor claims an experience.

      His experience is “going to medical school”

      But since you don’t have that experience, you can in fact just ignore him.

      After all, you have no logical reason to believe what he claims, since YOU personally don’t have that knowledge.

      Similar to the way you don’t know that the cashier you next meet isn’t going to murder you.

      But you already have a feeling about them. You trust the doctor is telling the truth. You have a personal trust in the cashier, that they won’t murder you.

      The best part is whether you want to or not, you make decisions on a regular basis based entirely on your emotional response.

      You yourself make my point every time you meet another person and don’t immediately fight them.

      Your position has no merit. You yourself don’t even live by it.

      Humans emote. Social interactions are largely predictable.

      Grieving has survival advantage.

      Any particular reason you can’t engage with that?

    3. @Why So Religious

      I assumed “you go to a doctor for a thing”

      Where you DO make an emotional decision.
