“What a waste of skin. These people really should kill themselves BEFORE going on their rampages.”

Well said. While we all wait to see if this was SJS.

I can conceive of a construction on reality where they are compatible.

I used to hold that view.

But I can’t find data to support evolution regardless. Just doesn’t fit the scientific facts. Period.

And I’m not a young earther.

Why does it have to be all or nothing... with all things conservative? Most other countries have a much lower homicide rate than the USA. That is just a fact. Why is that?

Good question. But the murder rate went north in the USA and not in other nations 20 years before any western nation changed their lax gun laws so it's not that.

Maybe the rise of religious Fundamentalism in the US?

We currently have a decided shortage of information about what has happened but, we already have a dreaded excess of opinion about what will happen.

And we are being proven right: So far, just flipping through the stations in the last hour, I've heard guns, videogames, and Hollywood are to blame for this. I've heard reporters say "so anybody could own a firearm like what the shooter had", and "why did he have so much ammo and equipment available to him", among other things (Dr. Phil had a really retarded quote about tomorrow's mass murderer's are today's children).

This is the tip of the iceberg. This tragedy will be used to further certain agendas and many careers.

Your opinion is far less than worthless.

Mussies are always a good bet when it comes to random acts of violence. They are over represented as a demographic, you might say. Probably because their religion advocates our death....might have somethin’ to do with it.
