Mass shootings began only in the mid 1960s. They’re not a product of American culture. They’re a product of the postmodern culture of decadence and death.

I am struck by the similarities between Dylann Roof and “Bryce Williams”.

For both of them, race war was the goal.

Neither was a conservative, and their victims were among constituencies that traditionally vote Democrat, blacks and journalists.

Both were products of politicization of the race issue. Neither wanted the races to come together, they wanted to foment further division. Kind of like Obama.

One wanted to be photographed wearing the Confederate flag, the other an Obama sticker.

In the end, neither Roof nor Williams will precipitate the riots they both sought. Neither gives the MSM what it craves when incidents like these occur, the crazed white male card-carrying conservative racist killer.

Right you are, like that kidnapping and execution of 50 plus student teachers on a trip to Mexico city by a local public official with cartel help in 2013.

It’s called democide and these ignorant Leftists better open up their history books and realize that authoritarian governments killed over 100 million people in the 20th century.

Just think what this country would look like today if we didn’t have gun owners defending the 2nd amendment? I’m certain that without the 2nd amendment, the concentration camps would be filled with government dissidents in this country.

IT CAN HAPPEN HERE!

Mix narcissism, entitlement and no accountability and you get what we saw yesterday. Of course, as a black gay the shooter had the double bonus victim status to rationalize his murderous behavior.

The daily slaughter around the world in the name of allah or marxism or purely for fun & profit far exceeds the relatively few mass murders in the USA.

Virtually all mass shootings in the US can be attributed to a mentally ill perp. Lacking a gun, these people will find other ways to satisfy their sick fantasy. If you want to kill a lot of people at once there are other ways than shooting them.

The Live Science reporter must have missed the many mass graves found in Mexico. I guess mass murder by bomb, a daily occurrence in the Middle East & elsewhere, doesn’t count, either. Those that have moved beyond just guns to do their killing are conveniently left out.

#shotlivesmatter - the same thinking as #blacklivesmatter

No matter. Gun grabbers will never get beyond the common sense fact that when guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.
