Another killer from the last year wrote in his manifesto that guns should be controlled. May have even said that he hoped his act would change things. Wasn’t the “call for gun bans” supposed to kick off civil war 2 in one of these nuts violent wet dreams?

And immediately the Left called to implenent his requested gun ban.

Have to wonder what school administrators knew of the bullying that the Florida shooter endured. The girl who made the rounds with Hogg was allegedly one of those who bullied the shooter in school.

Antifa also held a memorial for their terrorist member who died firebombing an ICE facility (with the intent of maiming and killing people in an explosion).

i had an increasingly violent and irrational cousin who no one ever, ever made reports on. My aunt was embarrassed and all hell would have broken loose if any one in my family had called a cop.
he got a gun. did not hurt anybody but alot of talk.
and I never even knew until it was over (he’s dead now)

Just wondering. If it’s for real the Chan monkeys will find it.

The more I read about it, the more convincing concealed carry becomes.

And what exactly are the cops supposed to do? Arrest Betts from bringing guns around his friends? (FYI: I always carry a gun around friends.) For speculating about the damage that could be done if someone started shooting in a crowded place? (I do that all the time -- Its call situation awareness.) The only crime is pointing a gun at someone's head -- for fun --- but without a witness, the cops are not going to make an arrest.

About 2% of this country are homosexual, yet their control over the culture, language, schools, media, business, and such is overwhelming.

“See something, say nothing”.

Political correctness has made wusses of society.

Please let’s discuss nationally some way to put away people - in hopes of rehab and release - who show EVERY SIGN of becoming a mass shooter. Freedom is not freedom for people who can’t handle it.

Problem is that after One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1962) and the Community Mental Health Act of 1963, that even if the law were changed, the mental health resources don't exist and aren't likely to exist, at least in our lifetimes. There is a severe shortage of psychiatrists (gov't "experts" underestimated the need for psychiatrists) and inpatient psychiatric hospital beds.

After they forced deinstitutionalization, the liberals then burned the bridge.

The closed/abandoned Fairfield Hills State Hospital in Newtown CT is a 2.8 mile drive from Sandy Hook Elementary School.

The bigotry is informed and well-earned, and if you don’t agree, you don’t know enough about Islam.

If you point out that a FRIEND of a killer (one friend of several identified, who did absolutely ZERO wrong) is a person of color, shall we presume you are a racist because you noted it? Yes, I would say you are.

A kid that happens to have an arabic last name. Who could be Christian for all you know. This maniac shoots and kills 9 people in cold blood, and we start pointing out that “hey, ONE OF HIS FRIENDS HAS AN ARABIC LAST NAME??? Maybe he’s in on it!!!”.

Its insanity, and racist to the core. “The killer pointed a gun to his head and he didn’t do anything!!” What whats he supposed to do? Call the cops? What exactly would they do with no witnesses? I’ll tell you what they’d do. Nothing.

Sorry, I don’t throw around the “R” word because it is so overused it basically has no meaning at this point. But this thread shows a level of paranoia that is ridiculous.
