19 children dead in a landslide, failure to find guns in the debris...

[max]

Another politically opportunistic, totally pointless news post....

A desperate search for three people missing in a landslide in southwestern China ended on Saturday when their bodies were pulled from the mud, taking the final death toll to 46 — many of them children.
Authorities in Yunnan province said that the last three bodies were recovered on Saturday morning after a night of frantic efforts by more than 1,000 rescue workers to locate the final missing residents of the remote village of Gaopo.
Xinhua said those buried included 27 adults and 19 children.

Hey, lets not waste dead children vs guns opportunity....

Maybe if they all HAD guns, they'd still be alive?

Y'know, cuz guns save lives...

There are certainly instances where they have and do.
Addressing the instances for minimalization makes a lot more sense that spewing ad hominem logical fallacies like so many other internet bullies.

The only way to stop a countryside with bad landslides is with a countryside with good landslides.

If this place is going to become All Dead Children All The Time, then we need a third forum for that bullshit. Maybe we could have one daily Dead People thread for EVERYONE to use, instead of all this axe-grinding FROM BOTH SIDES about dead kids. BOTH SIDES are making a mockery of what happened in Newtown with this technique.

Bingo. You did get the point.
The OP is making mockery of those who do use Newtown for their own axe grinding, of those who truly should be ashamed....

Is it really axe grinding to bring attention to child gun deaths? It's far easier to ignore them.

Also, do you need to refer to yourself in the third person? mick e gets a pass, but one per forum, please.
