    1) Punish murderers (and rapists) with death within 30 days. No more waiting 25 years to be executed.
    2) No nationwide publicity for people who do shocking crimes. No fame. No 'glory'.
    3) No appeals to U.S. supreme court, only to state supreme courts. The U.S. supreme court should not rule on state laws, only on disputes between states. And federal judges should only to be able to rule on matters that happen in their own district, and their rulings only be valid in their district, not the whole region or country.
    4) a judge who exceeds his or her authority should be sent to prison for 20 years.
    5) Mentally ill people should not be out walking around free. They should be where they get help, or at least not a danger to everyone else. Take the people out of the house, not the guns.
    6) Let prayer back into our schools. And teach respect for law and order.
    Any more ideas ? I would like to hear them.

    I don’t think we have a mass shooting epidemic
    The media is hyping up these rare events to achieve their goals
    Humanity has always been violent
    Always carry when you can and protect yourself and your family
    How many of these mass shootings did we have in the 1950s ? None that I know of. The first one that I recall was Charles Whitman at the University of Texas tower August 1st 1966. They are nothing more (!) than a part of a campaign to take away our guns. I believe that our country was fundamentally changed when the Communists/Illuminati/Rothschilds/Mafia/Cubans/Russians/CIA/persons unknown killed JFK in 1963. That is when the BAD GUYS, whoever they are, took over our government and started the campaign to make America over in their image/to their liking, ie: to destroy it. America was started as an experiment to see if a nation could govern itself without Kings, Emperors, dictators, Royalty, and tyrants. The elite have hated the experiment since it started, and are fighting to exterminate it. They are using the central banks (The 'Fed'), the culture war, communist infiltration, the education system, the news media, the entertainment industry, drugs, congress, judges, and even some Presidents to get the job done.We are still in that battle. But I believe that it is coming to a head soon, and it will turn HOT. We will win, but I still dread the day when it comes.

    Behavioral and life pattern analytics. That’s the future.

    We use it at work. It can ID and profile personality types more accurately than a building full of shrinks and a library of DSM’s and research.

    The problem is obtaining sufficient data and DNA/gene profiles on everyone from early in life.

    What would be sufficient data? I'm a bit skeptical on that one.

    That doesn't really answer the question of what would be sufficient data. I don't like the data websites collect on us, let alone a collection data from early in life.

    I edited the original post but you beat me to it before I finished.

    Think of it this way. If you can get served pop up ads based on some minor search you did a week ago, what other habits or interests do you have that are known in the wild.

    Do you carry a cell phone. Location and positioning data, beacons, and various other telemetry watch you 24/7. Is your microphone or cameras blocked on all the gizmos you use....

    That’s a sample of open source data analytics. A tiny fraction of what’s collected, excluding bio metrics.

    I deal with these oddballs. They aren’t even allowed to defend themselves in school if bullied. That might toughen them up.

    But:
    If they fight the bully, they will be placed in alternative school, cost their parents thousands of dollars in legal fees and have to interact with the legal system for years on end. The school has zero tolerance for any of that, and they also won’t do ANYtHING about the bullying. So the kids are not allowed to learn to cope in a natural way.

    In my day, you threw down. You might get "licks" but it was always worth it.

    My son got bullied by two older kids. He had never been in trouble, but was attacked by two adults (he was a minor). He sent one kid to the hospital to get his face sewed up, and was required to attend anger management class, which was a huge laugh to all who knew him. He was a comic. The adults never faced any consequences of the attack.

    He got a pat on the back from me and respect from everyone else.

    It's just me but getting rid of gun free zones and killing the bastatds and flying their rotten corpses from the state capitol is a good start.

    1) Punish murderers (and rapists) with death within 30 days. No more waiting 25 years to be executed.
    2) No nationwide publicity for people who do shocking crimes. No fame. No 'glory'.
    3) No appeals to U.S. supreme court, only to state supreme courts. The U.S. supreme court should not rule on state laws, only on disputes between states. And federal judges should only to be able to rule on matters that happen in their own district, and their rulings only be valid in their district, not the whole region or country.
    4) a judge who exceeds his or her authority should be sent to prison for 20 years.
    5) Mentally ill people should not be out walking around free. They should be where they get help, or at least not a danger to everyone else. Take the people out of the house, not the guns.
    6) Let prayer back into our schools. And teach respect for law and order.
    Any more ideas ? I would like to hear them.

    Right about now would be a bad time to be shopping at the Cielo Vista Mall in El Paso

    What about all of the folks who were freed just in Texas after DNA cleared them?
    2) No nationwide publicity for people who do shocking crimes. No fame. No 'glory'.
    3) No appeals to U.S. supreme court, only to state supreme courts. The U.S. supreme court should not rule on state laws, only on disputes between states.

    No. See above.
    4) a judge who exceeds his or her authority should be sent to prison for 20 years.
    5) Mentally ill people should not be out walking around free. They should be where they get help, or at least not a danger to everyone else. Take the people out of the house, not the guns.
    Can’t even begin to describe this slippery slope.
    6) Let prayer back into our schools. And teach respect for law and order.
    Any more ideas ? I would like to hear them. Again, no. Which religion do you suggest?
