Morocco's fine. It's not really doable as a day trip though, so budget an extra 3-4 days. Also, one way international flights are expensive as hell, so budget time to get back to whichever airport you flew in to unless you want to pay 2-3 times as much. e: My phone's about to die. Sorry dogs.

Fredo Fredoed with multiple countries. https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/997882835716493315 quote:Erik Prince, the private security contractor and the former head of Blackwater, arranged the meeting, which took place on Aug. 3, 2016. The emissary, George Nader, told Donald Trump Jr. that the crown princes who led Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates were eager to help his father win election as president. The social media specialist, Joel Zamel, extolled his company’s ability to give an edge to a political campaign; by that time, the firm had already drawn up a multimillion-dollar proposal for a social media manipulation effort to help elect Mr. Trump. I haven't heard about any of this poo poo, so it's really surprising how far ahead of everything the Mueller team is. facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 18:06 on May 19, 2018 |

Seriously I have made this argument face to face with several texans, wrt "what about all the schools that get shot up, easy accessibility of guns to people who would use them to do evil" their response universally "guns aren't the problem it's bad people that are the problem, guns don't kill you, people do" See also the Good Guy with a Gun fallacy.

Even the toughest background check on the books wouldn't stop a teen from stealing his dad's shotgun.

You cant control for bad people, but you sure as gently caress can control guns to make it harder for bad people to get access to ways to do bad things.

And before someone goes background checks should be more stringent, a lot of school shootings are kids stealing dads guns, and going and lighting up the place. They didnt buy poo poo so background checks would be wholly ineffectual at stopping the problem.

I don't see why it's so hard for people to say that it's possible to let people own anything they want if they prove themselves responsible and still regulate those things tightly enough that some kid can't go buy one in 20 minutes. We can really have the best of both worlds if we want to.

They didnt buy poo poo so background checks would be wholly ineffectual at stopping the problem. Permitting and storage requirements. Hold owners severely accountable if their kid steals a gun and uses it in this manner. Canada, New Zealand, etc. would be good models for US firearm regulation without having to ban specific guns.

It doesn't help that there really isn't a reliable mass shooter profile. Most of them don't have a diagnosable mental illness, just behavioral and anger problems that half the teenagers in America have.

Nik Cruz, Stephen Paddock, and the guy whose dad promised not to give his guns back to him (but did anyways) all personally owned the weapons they used.

Paddock might have been a lot harder to stop since there apparently a lot of warning signs. Of course just because a safety measure doesn't stop 100% of mass shootings doesn't mean you go and discount it completely. Any time a mass shooting happens it pushes other would-be spree shooters a little more over the edge and gives them a pretty clear idea about how they can achieve some notoriety.

Smart guns could probably prevent a lot of these school shootings with dad's guns, but the only store in the country that tried to sell them so far got a bunch of death threats so yeah. And yes, I know that the current one is just a handgun, but I'm sure demand for smart-gun technology would bleed over into retrofit kits that would allow people to secure non-smart firearms.

Smart gun tech would be cool, but it’s all finicky bullshit vaporware for now. Pay a premium for a shittier gun? Nope.

It doesn't help that primary and secondary schools don't have licensed mental health practitioners on staff the same way they have nurses and a cop or two plus various first aid/safety training for teachers. They have counselors, sure, but they're often one person dealing with a whole school and they're focusing on everything from dyslexia to physical disabilities. Having a trained MHP on staff who can evaluate at-risk kids and approach not only the kid but the family on addressing those risks would probably go a long way towards identifying and treating mental or behavior issues before the kid comes to school one day with a gun and a list.
