Presidential candidate Jeb Bush made an eyebrow-raising comment in the wake of the Oregon school massacre -- saying "stuff happens" in response to a discussion about gun violence.
Bush called the shooting in Oregon "heartbreaking," and said he also had challenges that he faced during his tenure as governor of Florida.
"Look stuff happens, there's always a crisis and the impulse is always to do something and it's not always the right thing to do," Bush said at the Conservative Leadership Project in Greenville, South Carolina, referring to taking away rights.

The real answer is to eliminate target rich environments for mass shooters and to ensure that Americans (and, only Americans; not crimigrants) have the opportunity to exercise their second amendment rights wherever they go.
“Go Yahoo! Take Bush’s comment out of context and destroy him!”
Works for me!
George P. spent millions to buy his seat. His opponent spent something like $10,000 on a statewide seat.
And still, with no visible opponent, 28% of voters said no.
I agree, more should have said no. But. He essentially ran uncontested.
The Constitution of the United States is only applicable to citizens of the United States.
It’s ridiculous to segment out those two words from the rest of his statement. It makes look like he made a single statement, “Stuff happens.” Which has a totally different meaning. What he actually said, there’s nothing wrong with.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

This won’t help him (good). But it was a correct comment.
Jeb Bush is not ready for prime time.
According to the latest polling, he is.
He is becoming nothing more than background noise in this race.
I understand, and agree with what he his saying (on this).
BUT - one does not equate ten people dead and many others seriously wounded by a nutcase shooter to “stuff”. Obviously that was not his intent - but that’s what it sounds like.
Obamanation lies and peoples die. From another article today concerning the shooting in Oregan by the liberal shooter Chris Harper Mercer
[The Federal Security Services (FSB) is reporting today that an American black-Islamist terror suspect, who yesterday committed an act of mass murder in the State of Oregon (United States), had been included on a list of 87,000 “known/suspected” Islamic terrorists that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) refused last month to accept from the Federation due to its not being “politically viable in the present atmosphere”.
According to this report, the black-Islamist terrorist who committed this act of terror, Chris Harper Mercer, had previously been indentified by electronic intelligence specialists within the Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) as being an Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) adherent after he had attempted to gain passage to Syria via Turkey during the first week of September, 2015.
By the Obama regime refusing to accept this terror list from the Federation, this report continues, Mercer was able to accomplish his terror act when yesterday he killed 9 people and wounded 7 others at the Umpqua Community College prior to his being shot and killed by local US police forces.]
Yes, he is correct, but as usual he gave a weak defense in reaction to the Democrats attacks.
If Jeb has been paying attention, he would know that backing down to those attacks to any degree is the wrong thing to do. So when he defends this, in part, by claiming he wasn’t talking about Oregon in particular, but incidents in general, he basically comes across as a weasel.
What he should have done is to man up, since it’s obvious that he was talking about Oregon - and to say something like this:
Guaranteed, if he reacted that way, he’d move up a few points in the polls. But since he continues to act like a typical politician, his slide will continue. So sorry Jeb, but sh$t happens.
It’s probably the best thing I’ve heard him say yet, but he managed to say it in a way that seems to trivialize a tragedy. Not ready for prime time.
I was wondering about why the posts online weren’t picked up. Was on another thread last night that is correlated...
Thinking the unthinkable: A case for orchestration

I am increasingly suspicious — almost convinced — that these spree-shootings are orchestrated. Let us consider: Only days after Boehner resigns (but stays around through October, able to defy his base) TWO mass shooting events occur within hours of one another: The college in Oregon, and a lesser-publicized Inglis, Florida mass-shooting.
If Obama seemed angry, I suspect it was because the second shooting was so small. Note how the two shootings make a perfect diagonal across the country, symbolically book-ending us with violence.
It’s really hard to be the point-man in this controversial subject — that the mentally-ill and medicated can and are manipulated to commit acts of mass murder for political gain — but point-man, I shall be. I’ll take the catcalls of “conspiracy theorist” and “tin foil hat wearer” and so on. So long as the dialogue is started, I’ll take the heat.
It is actually well-known that low-level microwave radiation can cause deleterious mental effects on the brain:
