Why is this happening I hear as the news is announced. Social Media explodes with “what is this world coming to…”
The answer is that the world is no different than it ever was… Except that today, it is just awash in guns thanks to the NRA….
The NRA’s campaign of madness drove everyone to buy a gun. Whether mentally stable or not…they now have guns and are itching to use them… Seeing a cop kill someone needlessly on YouTube, is a good reason as any….
Extreme passions will always exist. But the caliber of weapons in their hands, don’t have to.. WE chose to allow that, and now, finally, it is our policemen who are dying for it…
Ban guns like Australia, and let’s fight with bows and arrows instead… Though crimes of passion may remain, our death toll will go down and that is what we all want..
Right now, I don’t think anyone cares about the 2nd Amendment anymore… Do you know of anyone out there saying these dead policemen are just the collateral damage for keeping our rights? (That is exactly what Wayne LaPierre said of dead blacks; wonder what’s different about “dead policemen”?)
Let me explain the rational behind actively banning all guns…. If you say nothing and the gun owners scream 2nd Amendment rights, nothing will change; guns stay the same… And the exact opposite would occur if you scream BAN ALL GUNS and the NRA stays silent, which is why gun laws do get passed in crime ridden inner cities….So what has to happen is that you work to ban all guns, yet are willing to accept any compromise that allows some to remain safely in hands of people who will never use them in anger… If it appears that having guns banned is really about to happen, the NRA will modify their stance into a compromising position, instead of losing the right for anyone to own a gun forever.
We will have success, in fact both sides will win… But that achievement can ONLY happen if political pressure far great than the NRA’s, lines up to BAN ALL GUNS…..
Saying you want all guns banned is not really to ban all guns….. but to make the NRA believe it is about to happen so they un-harden their hearts and compromise….
On one hand you proclaim noisily that you want to ban all guns, and with the other you craft legislation that compromises your principles and allows some guns, but puts restrictions strong enough to keep guns out of the hands of all but the most trustworthy of collectors…
Instead of posting on social media you stand with the blue, like and share, you should be protecting the blue from being shot by posting you are against all guns… Get it? ALL GUNS…. (but really you aren’t: wink, wink)….
Did they tell us that open carry laws would make us all safer?
You know who IS safer?
Australians
When their Port Arthur shooter targeted and killed 35 random civilians, they banned assault weapons. Collected all of them.
There have been no mass shootings since. Since 1992 there have been fewer police shootings of civilians than there were in March 2016 just in the US alone.
Things seem much calmer in Australia. Perhaps we should ignore the NRA’s lying and do what they did?
They got results. We got bullshit.
51% of the country cheered when they first heard police were shot by snipers in retaliation for the unnecessary shootings making the rounds these past two days. The other 49% reacted with regret.
But those other 49% cheered the two blacks being killed.. Ha, take that, Obama!….. (referring to Tea Party Congressman Walsh’s currently calling for both Black Lives Matter leaders and Obama’s assassination).
Social media today is full of everyone’s pontifications. The point lost however, is that shaming is ineffective when the people you are trying to shame, are proud of what they did. Just as when you are proud of what you do, you care little about how your enemies try to paint you, probably because their reaction, justifies your original action.
True “Wisdom” calls both sides out for being wrong… Because if there is one lesson taught by world history, it is that violence begets violence and the only way to stop it, is for one side to completely disappear, as in down to zero, or… both sides become so tired of the costs they negotiate a solution,… the latter which could have just as easily been wrought WITHOUT all the costly violence transpiring.
War’s only solution is to stop it cold prior to the very first provocation.
To understand this train of thought, one first needs to understand violence. Violence occurs when people become frustrated that justice is being ignored by a majority of the status quo. Whether you are ISIS, black, or a Republican Christian like Timothy McVey, you resort to violence because you can express your anger on that playing field, whereas you are completely boxed up on all others….
In study of conflict after conflict, there is roughly a six month window in which solutions acceptable to both sides can occur. The first violence is a surprise. Neither side is mobilized and interior battles are still ongoing between the moderates and extremists of either position.
If things quickly change for the better, in each group it is the moderates who gain more followers as extremists lose them: “Whew, good thing we didn’t start fighting; everything worked out well”. BUT, if nothing quickly changes, it becomes the extremists who gain the upper hand in each organization, simply because what they offer is something different than inaction: “not fighting the bully” is not working; “fighting the bully” is the only viable plan left.”
It is at these points where controlling governments make their mistake. They respond reactively instead of proactively. They are reacting logically which does nothing to appease the rampant emotions surrounding the issue. If they prosecute these officers and prosecute the police murderers (the logical solution) they do nothing to stem future racist officers from killing other blacks or other angry blacks from killing future police officers… the violence continues which conveys the frustrating message that nothing has changed
When the perception appears that nothing has been done, the attraction to more violence, grows.
Today’s events blatantly illustrate this. Louisiana’s Democratic Governor turned the Baton Rouge case over to the Feds. who we all know could never be persuaded to white wash what happened and lie to protect the police officers. That should had ended the controversy behind the first shooting. Over! Done! Justice will be served… But that reaction was dwarfed by another event, a totally unrelated video shot a thousand miles to the north. And now that video just got overshadowed by the sniping at cops in Dallas. Are we done yet? Or will another video surface today?
To prevent chaos, you have to jump over the crises of today and intercept tomorrow’s crises before it happens. This usually requires an illogical action that is so bizarre, it puzzles the will and stops all in their tracks while they analyze what in the heck you just did. Successful tyrants have done this across history. Imagine for example if we arrested and imprisoned without bail, the Koch Brothers and the officers of the NRA, and shut down Fox News. This shock would be enough to stop the violence. You reacted and stopped cold the root cause of the violence; instead of just treating the symptoms.
Were you to do this, those racist officers intent on starting a race war, would be afraid that doing so would put their superiors in jeopardy, which would be harder for them to live through than going through what has now become the standard acquittal process. Particularly those superiors feeling the threat, would seminar those in the streets with daily reminders to shoot no one for any reason, lest the “real Law” comes for the boss to take him away….
This immediately changes the culture in police departments everywhere. Within hours. You go from being afraid for your life, to being afraid of losing your job which to a police person, is a far greater fear than that of losing ones life, a risk you accepted when you took the job.
Admittedly, this would be difficult to do in America because we are a nation founded on the principle of moving slowly by consensus. But it was quite effective in Soviet Russia during Stalin’s tenure and in North Korea today. That is how autocratic nations are run. Grab someone randomly who is no more guilty of crimes than were those dead police officers or the two black gunned down, and punish them. Since you don’t know who your actions will hurt, you don’t propagate any. Here in America, the equivalent would be to arrest the Koch’s…. and since they’d be a flight risk, … no bail.
But just imagine if the NRA, Koch’s, and Fox News were suddenly leaderless. Silence on the NRA’s part, no secret money funneled to hate groups on the Koch’s part, and no propaganda on Fox News Part.. Instead we would see it for what it is: crazy people doing crazy things and being punished by the calm rule of lawt. We would be told such was the cost of freedom and shown fractions like 7/319,000,000 to drive home the point that 318,999,993 of us have little to worry over… We would be reminded of how there are 900,000 police officers in the United States, and how only 3 of them killed with no provocation these last two days. We could be told that if you get pulled over you have an 899,997/900,000 chance of having no life threatening situation occur.
And if we become convinced that we have little to worry over, the costs of instigating violence to ourselves and our families far outweigh any gain we would otherwise see….
Because when you deal with people who access to weapons, you can’t stop violence with force… Iraq’s occupation was one example. Britain’s domination of Ireland is another. Palestine versus Israel is a third. You only stop violence by making those individuals who are armed, not want to hurt anyone….
And that will require a lot of changes… A police force can offer free hugs in a university town all it wants, but until you stop the posts of: Like and Share if you support Police Officers killing Blacks for no reason, it is just one molecule in an ocean.
When you have a fire, you don’t add gasoline… Arresting the Koch Brothers, the NRA leadership, and Fox News would do a lot to remove gasoline which we all know, shouldn’t even be near a fire to begin with…
As anyone who has dealt with terrorism knows, if you build a hospital to display goodwill and the terrorists come in and kill everyone there, no one goes to that hospital anymore… no matter how sick. You have to take-out those who call for violence and arresting the Koch’s, NRA leadership, and silencing Fox News, would take 98% of those promoting this insanity, off the streets and out of the public eye in 24 hours.
We need to focus on the REAL problem, not the symptoms.
It’s true…. Toddlers with guns killed 21. Terrorists killed 19.
Now add all those other unnecessary deaths by guns,and still tell me we need easier access to guns to prevent terrorism….
Banning guns is not an answer. The answer IS banning people who will kill other people, from having access to guns…
And that is where the Republicans and NRA’s insistence on deregulating all gun purchases so even deranged criminals can pick up a gun for a couple of dollars, is off its rocker…
When toddlers kill more Americans than terrorists, we need to stop worrying about terrorists and start worrying about toddlers. If we aren’t being panicked into fearing our two year olds and under, we should give equal disdainment for any political potty mouth who wants us to spend billions to defend ourselves from the non-threat of terrorists….
Bottom line..
Toddlers in America kill more people with guns and terrorists in America kill period…
That tells you how messed up the NRA is right there….
Three years from the aftermath of an unprecedented expression of suppressed anger, one that was so irrational none of us could comprehend how anyone could have stooped so low, today we now have one similar episode… EVERY SINGLE DAMN DAY OF THE YEAR…
Today is December 3. It is the 337th day of the year… As of yesterday, depending upon who is doing the counting we have had 345-355 “mass” shootings in the United States THIS YEAR… More than one per day. This is above and beyond the normal killings. Criminal, domestic abuse, accidental, malfeasance. This number strictly represents people who plan to kill large numbers of fellow human beings and prepare for it well accumulating military style equipment, then go out and do it…
Let that sink in… Every day we have a potential Sandy Hook, a potential San Bernardino, that due to other circumstances did not have as high a body-count or shock effect as did these two in children’s areas.. But in each daily episode, at least 4 die classifying it as a “mass killing”… Every damn day.
In 11 days from today, we hit the 3rd Anniversary of Sandy Hook… Obviously gun control in America is headed in the wrong direction…
The HUGE problem, the elephant in the room, is the NRA… A group that solicits donations from large numbers of Americans who own guns, and then uses those to buy off lawmakers or threaten them with caustic ads to submit and let gun owner run rampant over the Constitutional rights of everyone else… especially small children who get dropped off in previously thought safe havens by their parents…
There are a lot more people who are not in the NRA than who are in the NRA. They too are a huge problem.. The NRA is only 1% of us (3.15 million)… Which means 99% of us (315 million) are letting them get by with murder.
Content to sit on our own hands and let it go on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on , and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on,
(Count them. There are 345: one for every mass shooting this year in the USA….)
No one is going to argue that we need to get rid of guns.. But 99% of us should acknowledge that the biggest player at the table is not budging on this issue.
For self survival, the NRA needs to come up with their own solution and push it through Congress. The fact they have not, speaks volumes. (They defined mass killings as the collateral damage to having the right to bear arms.)
Seriously. Collateral damage needs to affect the NRA and it needs to come from the other 99% of American citizens who don’t give a damn about the Constitutional right to bear arms; they just want these insane killings over nothing, to stop. They have the power to change it. They have the power through their vote, to put people into office WHO WILL NOT LISTEN… to the NRA…
If you haven’t gone on your social media page and blasted the NRA after this and every past massacre, the real problem is you. You, the coward, are the true problem as to why every day, another 4 people have to die..
“Oh pshaw, I don’t want to look too political”, you may say.. Or “I don’t want to piss off business associates or customers who might own guns”, you may counter. Both are noble reasons. But it seems that you don’t have the same reticence of expressing yourselves politically when it comes to whether or not to allow Syrians into the USA?
The bottom line is you are political just by living here. It’s your responsibility. If you want the killings to stop you have to overpower those who don’t want killings to stop, ie the NRA.. There are 99 or more of you for everyone of them. This small splinter of society, is the reason you must fear your time will come due while Christmas shopping.
If anyone looked up the true meaning of aiding and abetting the enemy, the NRA as an organization would land right in the center of that definition. They are America’s biggest threat; our most dangerous terrorist organization. They assist in promoting terror. Real terror; not the fake kind threatened by beheaders in the Syrian desert.
It is time everyone attacks them on their social media and either argumentatively (if you are dealing with an asshole), or gently (if you are dealing with a reasonable person), demand everyone pressure the NRA organizational leadership to come up with the one workable solution…
The easiest way to stop this extraordinary high rate of mass killings is simple: keep guns out of the hands of potential mass killers… So easy. Just do it…. Everyone else can have guns, if you are safe, no one really cares.. but guns to mass killers need to stop and anyone still a member of the NRA who does not write their leadership and demand they offer the final solution, is the problem…
Pure and simple. If they take too long, the 99% of us who are not NRA members, need impose serious safeguards on access to all their guns… WE don’t care how much they cry.. Boo, hoo, hoo. They had their chance and pissed it into the wind.
Just fix it.
(Today’s event was brought to you by the NRA/ they deserve special thanks for it could never have happened without them)
A. Guns don’t kill people; people do… this is proof right here… Because people kill people, one of the things we have to do, is make it more difficult for them to do so. Again, this is proof right here. America needs to get its grip on guns.
We could do that by registering and tracking every weapon; hint, we do it with cars’ vin numbers, titles, and inspections.
We could make legal only guns sold in stores/ hint, we do it with pharmaceuticals….
We could make legal gun ownership an adult activity, and require state approved licenses to keep and own one; hint, we do it with driver’s licenses and beer.
We could allow the CDC to track and keep records on the number of deaths, so we can see how high up the ladder gun deaths are, and death tolls can’t be diminished when it comes time to change gun policy… hint, we do it with influenza.
But in every step towards rationality, the NRA becomes irrational. “Nuts” is a pretty good adjective. As nuts do (see above photo for example), they scare and intimidate people into doing nothing to curb the illegal trading of guns.
The NRA alleges it has 3 million members. Yet now there are 315 million Americans, which means there are 312 million Americans who now hate the NRA… Were these to pressure Congress the same way as does the NRA, there would be no competition… The NRA would crawl back to 1871 with its head between its knees.
The power of the NRA only exists in a vacuum. That is something to remember. For every NRA member there are 100 who can beat him up if he steps out of line… There is no reason to fear a joker who has a NRA sticker on his truck…. Good news, is that if he is a member, he can probably handle his gun safely.
Why killings are the NRA’s fault can be quickly summarized.
The NRA threatens Senators and Congressmen and state reps anytime someone recommends the wise policy of treating guns like vehicles. (There is a reason we register and track cars; they kill people.)
The NRA threatens Senators and Congressmen and state reps anytime someone recommends the wise policy of closing down open air markets and private sales., whose sole purpose is to avoid tracing from where a gun came. These bizarres are legal and have no record of ownership. The easiest way to control guns is to allow most of them to be only sold at registered retailers, and make them liable so they ensure all checks are properly made, before dispensing the sale of a weapon….
The NRA threatens Senators and Congressmen and state reps anytime someone recommends the wise policy of putting an age limit on gun ownership and making sure everyone is properly able to safely handle a gun, before they can legally use one.
The NRA threatens Senators and Congressmen whenever they find a agency receiving Federal or state dollars which is keeping track of the number of violent gun deaths. This one is pretty silly really. The reason is because if you knew the truth, you would be calling your representatives and tell them to outlaw all guns… It is horrendous….
Forget all the small stuff… This year there have been 247 mass killings in America… Today is the 239th day of the year….AMERICA IS AVERAGING ONE MASS KILLING A DAY….
Why? Of course it is all because of the NRA…. one one hundredth of the rest of us (1/100)…..
America. With each new mass killing, have you had enough? Are you finally ready to do what is necessary to make a change?
Then call, write, or email, but tell Congressman Carney, Senator’s Carper and Coons, to draft and vote for legislation that specifies the NRA is a terrorist organization, and require the seizing of their assets… (It’s in the Constitution; to protect ourselves from our enemies, both foreign and DOMESTIC.)
Then… pass reasonable legislation that keeps all safe… or at least…. safer.—-
——————————–
Addendum. Some have tried to make this partisan. This is not partisan. Common sense is bi-partisan.. I believe there are as many Democrats who vocally support the NRA as there are Republicans… This is addressed to both of them… American’s safety is a non-partisan issue… It is not an emotional issue. It is a rational issue. Emotions have steered us in the totally wrong direction… it is past time that our brains take over our emotions and let childish policies become ineffective.
Then, instead of promoting mass mayhem, the NRA should go back to what they invented themselves for……
As parents we tell our little children they should never use violence to find their solution. Always seek another way we tell them… Violence is bad, disruptive, and creates additional problems.
However, if we do, and we channel those children into non violent opposition which is completely ineffective, and they get slaughtered, imprisoned, or enslaved; did we correctly fulfill our parental duty in preserving our genetic line?
I’m beginning to think our civilized pacifism has completely failed our youth.
We should be teaching them that across history (American history that is), that “might” makes “right”. Teach them that if you are “agreeable”, conducive to find compromising solutions, then you only get what the mighty want to give you, not what they have to give you.
Just ask native Americans. Or former slaves. Or people in poor neighborhoods. Do you have the same rights as a rich white person? No?
The reason rich whites have so many protected rights is because they took them. They took what they wanted from native Americans. They took what they wanted from Africa’s tribesmen. They took what they wanted from East Side and South Bridge of Wilmington… And they gave it all to folks living on Westover Drive… between the Ed Oliver golf course and Barley Mills.
So…
Why does it make sense to riot in ones neighborhood? To burn down buildings of those who live next door to you, meanwhile while they are burning down the buildings you live in?…. What sense does that make?
What does makes sense is to unite all impoverished and poor people (99% of us) and take our torches to the neighborhoods of the 1% and burn down their houses…..
Think about it…. You are so mad cops killed an innocent boy halfway across the 4th largest nation in the world, that you take it out on your neighbors… who are probably as upset as are you?…
When instead, you could effectively take out your anger on those who are directly responsible? The top 1%! They are the reason no laws are on the books protecting normal children from being murdered by bigot cops. They are the reasons you have nothing to your name, and they have all. They are the reason you can’t get a job, while they pocket what should be yours and all your neighbor’s salaries into the Grand Caymen Islands…
They are the ones who paid for and provided all the riot gear to the police. Who passed laws allowing “their” police to bust heads, and kill, with full protection under the new laws they passed, after getting rid of the laws that originally protected, you… They passed those laws right out in the open, and no one effectively stood up against them then… because apparently, you didn’t care enough to vote.
If you don’t fight Republicans in the voting booth every two years, this is what you get. This is what you deserve. Like a farmer who never plants, never weeds, never waters, never reaps, who then goes out a Autumn’s end wondering why he is hungry and has no food, it is obvious he deserves his plight from his own laziness… If you want prosperous fields, you have to work at it and not voting-out Republicans, is like not working your farmer’s field…. It’s a pain. It is work. It is necessary if one wants to eat.
In places where the impoverished of all colors have not been allowed to vote freely, situations such as Ferguson arise quickly . Think for a second. If you can do anything you want and no one can do anything to stop you, how long does it take before you start taking advantage of your situation? One hour? One Day? One Month? One Year? Try 30 years. Thirty years of not voting for your self interests…
Yet. it continues to this day.
Since voting is no longer an option (being that things have gotten so out of hand that a college student gets shot as a thug simply because of the color of his skin and the neighborhood he is found) one must use the rich white man’s ways against him.
Violence is the next step… However it must be targeted to do tremendous good, instead of giving zero relief at great expense to yourself…
So target effectively and take the violence to those who caused your plight… The one percent. Go to Westover Farms and burn down their houses, ignite their cars, and battle police there, not your own neighborhoods. Then come home to your safe streets and house, sleep well, and go back tomorrow to do it again…
You have far greater chance to see the changes which must be accomplished, than you ever will for burning down your own neighborhood, which the one percent, all Republicans, actually enjoy seeing be burned to the ground…. “Ha, ha, look at those stupid poor people,” they laugh, ” burning down their neighborhoods so we can rebuild over-top of it with free 99%’rs taxpayer’s money…. Hope they kill all of each other while they are at it and make the world a much better place…. Ha, ha, ha… Poor people are such a trip…”
But when 15,000 people suddenly show up on their street, then among their fear for their own personal safety, come ideas like: “darn, maybe we should have paid more in taxes so they’d all have jobs now. Darn, maybe we should have paid more in wages instead of cutting them, and making them suffer so. Darn, maybe we should have done more to eradicate charters and invested more resources and good teachers into our existing public schools. Darn, maybe we should have done more to make their lives better too, instead of taking everything we could get, keeping it to ourselves, and sending in armed police to crush their spirit by treating them like the 2nd class citizens we think they are… Gee… Maybe we were wrong to listen to Republicans and not to the party of real people, Democrats…”
It is this change that must come in their hearts before any change is made… It will only come when they feel threatened… and right now, there are so few of them, that the only way to threaten them is to go to their neighborhoods…
And if you really want to hurt a rich guy…. like really, really, really, hurt him where he feels it most… destroy the thing he loves above all else... above his wife (always buy a new one); above his kids ( easily bought off with some coke); above his pets (stupid dog, I’ll have him shot on Monday) ; above his house, (I got 8 more around the country), above his Mercedes (good, insurance pays me more than what I could get on the market)…. tear up his golf course….
If you think it is funny, you really don’t understand rich people… Their local golf course is their heart. They can’t walk away like they do their wife, kids, pets, house and car. They pay their own money to keep a golf course afloat… It is their pride. It is not insured because, insuring a golf course is a waste of money.. What could possibly happen?
Steal one bulldozer. Make something bad happen to their golf course, and they will understand that they need to make things better for you…
SO VENT YOUR ANGER!… GET VIOLENT!… Rob, loot, and set fire to buildings…. just do all the rest of us a favor and do it in place where the 1% live… Cause face it… they already got all the money…. No one else could help you…. even if they truly wanted!….
Having no Republicans may not have saved Micheal Brown from being shot by a pure frothing bigot. But having no Republicans sure would have made sure a grand jury would do what was best for the people, try him, and not deviate to force what would create another joyful situation where the KKK’s bigots in riot gear could bust open some more colored heads and grind their brains into Ferguson’s sidewalks… That is all this trial was about. How to create this opportunity to kill even more black Missourians!
It is their fault… Make THEM pay! Not your neighbors. Yes, their rules say we are supposed to riot in our own neighborhoods… Break them!
Has the Republican Party truly gone so far out on a limb, that they are truly advocating the right of the insane to keep guns trumps the right of a child to live?
I simply have to wonder. Why would anyone ever, ever, ever, ever, ever in this lifetime, after living these past 4 years, ever again vote for a Republican? Perhaps because they really don’t know? Your duty is to tell them.
Fed Ex shooting. A FedEx employee wearing ammunition draped across his chest “like Rambo” opened fire
All legal in Georgia.
In addition to a shotgun, the gunman also had an undisclosed number of molotov cocktails,
All legal in Georgia.
The shooter first shot a security guard at a shack outside the building.. Everything up to the split second the shell impacted the guard, was under Georgia’s new law, completely legal.
He was a white male.
Is anyone really surprised? Guns are more important than people inside the state lines of Georgia…..
In a very sad, sad state of American affairs, a German exchange student, one well known in the exchange community, was murdered in cold blood in a person’s garage in Montana.
Allegedly he was trying to burglarize the premise.
However talk among his pen pals was that he had repeatedly been bullied by this person. And most likely, he was accosted at gunpoint, either driven or walked to the garage, asked to perform some type of insidious act, and then shot point blank because of fear that he would tell and everyone would then know the shooter was gay, and he obviously could not have that….. not in Montana.
Fortunately this was Montana and not some stupid redneck royal Republican locality like Florida…..
This person was arrested….. and will most likely have his secret urges fulfilled in prison.
But it is just sad, as is the death of any child. Someone so full of life and hope, and given the greatest opportunity to come to America, the land of opportunity….
