More like he was also TRAINED, EDUCATED and Also EXPERIENCED to be fair. All the Parkland Kids "EXPERIENCED" could be descreibed as Extreme School House Bullying.
But that did happen. It was the Corrupt Government Leaders on each side that put an END to Peace.

That would never happen in this day age. For the second it begins, morons would go to social media and claims Christmas is racist or phobic to the other races in the world. All this would be happening while those morons are safe in their little underground bunker.
Imagine if the British Empire was a tad more paranoid a few hundred years ago.
Paranoia is not a bad thing. It’s only bad when it’s all you can think off.
Am I paranoid to believe the US government can become a dictatorship in my lifetime? No I don’t. But do I believe it might happen? Nothing is for sure. It might happen. Should one be ready? Yes. Why? Because the government is an entity being run by human beings, and human beings are corrupt, or essay corruptable.
Real people are being hurt today by the guns you need to defend yourself from fantasy fears.
It's like the guy digging a radioactive bunker to protect himself from a potential nuclear fall out and unintentionally sabotaging the underground water supply while doing so.

Yes real people are being hurt by guns, but it's not unreasonable to be hesitant to pass legislation restricting the liberty and property rights of the entire US population.
It's not just a matter of you can stop people from being killed without having to sacrifice anything of value to do so. It's a matter of to pursue some of these policies you would explicitly necessarily have to restrict the liberty and property rights of every American citizen (and in the case of say a proposed ban on semi-automatic rifles you'd actually have to take people's property by force or threat of force), and that isn't an insignificant cost. Beyond that point there's also the uncertainty of potential other costs that result from the legislation, such as the hypothetical of a tyrannical government, or even on the smaller scale of what if certain people have a harder time getting weapons and then confront genuine threats to their lives they are unequipped to deal with. And furthermore the intended benefit of the legislation isn't even a given, it could be passed with the cost of everyone's liberty to the effect of minimal impact on gun homicides.
I don't think it's irrational or paranoid to approach the subject of what we should get our government to restrict from us with serious hesitancy.

Then explain how knives kill more people per year than AK-47s.

Too paranoid... really? Just think about how many people have been slaughtered by tyrannical governments in the last 100 hundred years. It's not like people are worried about something human beings as a species have actually evolved beyond.
Firefly has 100% faith in the government. BTW, he also thinks that the Trump admin is full of morons, racists and probably Nazis.

What about all the guns deaths that aren't from mass shootings, why don't you care about them?

Yet more Blacks are kill in Chicago related to illegal ownerships of handguns? Yet you’re side are nowhere to be seen! Why? Because Blacks killing other Blacks, the innocent ones also, doesn’t fit you’re agenda!
It IS a practical concern. Think about the rights we've already had stripped from us by things like the Patriot Act. Giving up our ability to effectively fight back in a worst case scenario is a horrible idea because once we do that we're screwed if/when the impending threat of a true tyrant presents itself.

Admittedly I haven't given this one much thought, though I honestly don't think it'd be much of a deterrent. Logically finding away around that seems like something that would be a pretty easy thing to do.
"Enhance" is a vague term, it depends on what enhancements you have in mind. Also I don't disagree with universality of background checks, but at the same time it seems virtually impossible to regulate hand to hand transactions in any seriously effective way.
Again that's a vague sound good statement with not a lot of substance as to what specifics it's actually proposing.
Yeah I definitely don't agree with that one. I think it partially defeats the purpose of accessible self-defense if you're going to institute something that would significantly bump up the cost of owning a fire-arm. I don't think it's reasonable to charge someone a monthly insurance fee for a rifle they keep in their house and only use in the situation that someone tries to break into their house, or that someone whose poor enough that they're stuck living in a high crime rate area would have to dedicate that much of their income to paying insurance monthly, as opposed to making a one time purchase that will help them secure their safety in their own neighborhood.
I can understand gun owner's apprehension to expanded government intelligence on their gun ownership when you have politicians and political activists calling for the government to restrict and confiscate certain type of guns. To someone seriously concerned with protecting their property, I can see why they wouldn't want to consent to something that would make it easier for the government to disarm them if they chose to do so.
