It's looking more and more that Tim Pawlenty is coming back to run for Governor.

This clown is now very beatable.

If the FBI had done their job instead of being so politically biased and neglecting other more important items... we would not be talking gun control today!

So.. who did this?... who is responsible for 17 youth’s deaths? Meuller’s FBI!

The FBI had been told about this gunman... they came to see the source but never went to see cruz.. they were aware of cruz and did nothing.

“if you see something, report it” went on deaf ears... someone alerted them... the police had been called to the home numerous times.. and they did nothing.

I’ve been wondering that too,

Stories are all over the place from him not being close to him being shot while armed. and everything in between.

“U.S. Rep. Tim Walz, a Democratic candidate for Minnesota governor and longtime gun-rights supporter, has proposed an assault weapons ban in the state.”

Walz is a neo-Nazi snake. Crush the leftist pig in the next election.

Not so much the FBI....if the local sheriff had done his job and the local school board theirs this might not have happened.

the D’s have SorozNazi funding, unlimited it seems, and more and more and more (remember HilLIARy’s reported $200 million from foreign Muslim dicatorships?)

what do the conservatives have going on now, money and organization and activity?

the D’s are working hard....big time... getting election districts gerrymandered in their favor, getting secretaries of state (who certify any election results) elected, smearing almost everybody and everything that’s at all centrist or moderate or conservative.....publishing incredible blizzards or communistic, socialistic propaganda in ‘news’ and ‘entertainment’ media... not just on the OpEd page, but permeating the front pages every danged day, plus 24.7 radio and TV propaganda

what are the conservatives doing?

He was”sheltering in place” like all the other targets.

Nothing yet, that I can find. It’s just Tim reminding us that he is running for Governor.

It looks like he went mealy-mouthed after the Vegas shooting: https://www.newsmax.com/Politics/tim-walz-donate-NRA-money/2017/10/05/id/817929/

“A gun ban here in Minnesota?”

You’ve got a moonbat governor who said anyone uncomfortable with Somali migrants should leave.

Minneapolis has or had a moonbat mayor who actively recruited Somalis for the police force and as a result an innocent woman is dead with no repercussions for the Somali.

I visited Minnesota to take my wife to the Mayo Clinic & we went to the Mall of America. Never dreamed it would become a jihadi killing field.

Denizens of Lake Wobegon may indeed vote for a gun ban, and Swedes & Norwegian bachelor farmers aren’t your greatest advocates for gun rights.

But at least you’ve got Garrison Keillor & Powdermilk Biscuits.
