    For anyone wondering about Georgia’s gun control laws:

    -No background checks

    -No purchase permit laws

    -K-12 teachers are allowed to carry

    -No red flag laws

    -No bans on high capacity magazines

    -No secured gun storage required

    -Open carry / no concealed carry permit required

    -No ghost gun regulations

    -People with assault or violent misdemeanors can carry guns

    -Colleges and universities must allow guns on campus

    -Minors can possess rifles and shotguns

    But Brian Kemp is urging all Georgians to pray for the safety of those in the classroom!!

      I thoroughly despise living in Georgia. There are so many gun-fetishist, uneducated, redneck morons who live near me that I have, at times, felt like I was literally suffocating.

      The moment I can move, I will get the hell out of this hell-hole of a state. The only good thing you can even say about it is that it’s not as bad as Florida — where there are just as many idiots, but also sweat running down cracks you didn’t know you had.

      And having a kid in school, this is one of my worst fears as a parent. The sheer helplessness those parents must feel right now, it’s both mind-boggling and maddening.

      Fuck Georgia. Fuck the USA. Fuck the piece of shits who value their guns over children. And fuck anyone who believes that the cost of their own freedom is watching as children are murdered in the classroom.

        What city do you live in if you don’t mind me asking? I know a few folks who adore Savannah.

      So you’re telling me the good guys with guns prevented the entire thing right?

      I’m willing to bet this 13 year old didn’t walk into a gun store and make a purchase. I see this as a failure by the parents for being negligent with their firearm(s). Maybe one of those laws would have prevented them from making a purchase though.

      Red flag laws will open floodgates of abuse to accuse anyone of being unstable based merely on perceptions. Not sure I trust those. But in general you made a great list.
