-Quite a lot of these people are known to be mentally unstable.

Yep...In many cases, from around the time they start kindergarten...

The dems will try to keep this in the headlines, milk it for all they can, and use it come election time.

We need to get our facts straight.

Where did you get the idea he followed MSNBC? I did not see that in his manifesto. Do you have him confused with James T. Hodgkinson, who shot up the GOP baseball practice (Steve Scalise)? The kid who shot all those people in Buffalo hated the media, TV news, etc., claimed it was all “controlled by Jews”. He got his news off reddit and his sick racist neo-Nazi nuttery from the 4chan sewer.

The old guy who shot up the Taiwanese at the church was not affiliated with the Chi-coms. He was born in Taiwan to anti-communist parents.

Something tells me he would not regard the lefties who want to break into the Supreme Court and murder the conservative Justices to be “domestic terrorists.”

Post-17th Amendment ratification Sen. Schumer unsurprisingly doesn't seem to understand (blatantly ignores?) the following about the federal government's constitutionally limited powers.

Regarding his unconstitutional (imo) bill, the delegates of the Constitutional Convention (Con-Con) made the Constitution's Article IV, Section 4 (4.4) to prohibit the distrusted federal government from helping to stop domestic violence without a formal request for assistance from the elected government leaders of state where violence is taking place.

"Article IV, Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence [emphasis added]."

In fact, Justice Joseph Story had explained that the delegates had made the domestic violence part of 4.4 as a check against the untrusted feds dreaming up any excuse to interfere with a state's affairs.

”§ 1819. It may not be amiss further to observe, (in the language of another commentator,) that every pretext for intermeddling with the domestic concerns of any state, under colour of protecting it against domestic violence, is taken away by that part of the provision, which renders an application from the legislature, or executive authority of the state endangered necessary to be made to the general government, before its interference can be at all proper [emphasis added]. On the other hand, this article becomes an immense acquisition of strength, and additional force to the aid of any state government, in case of an internal rebellion, or insurrection against its authority. The southern states, being more peculiarly open to danger from this quarter, ought (he adds) to be particularly tenacious of a constitution, from which they may derive such assistance in the most critical periods.” —Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution, Article 4, Section 4.

The bottom line with 4.4 is that Con-Con delegates made keeping the big nose of the feds out of the affairs of the sovereign states a higher constitutional priority than possible federal assistance in dealing with domestic violence imo.

Sen. Schumer needs to first successfully petition the states for a constitutional amendment that would give Congess the specific new power that Schumer needs to justify his bill imo.

"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.

Otherwise, Schumer's bill is another example of unconstitutional expansion of the already unconstitutionally big federal government's powers imo.

We need to ensure that federal law enforcement has the resources they need to best preemptively identify

Preemptively means: throw the Bill of Rights in the trash.

Notice how quick they put this together (because it was prepared ahead of the false flag action). I bet it has gun bans in it.

Shooting in Buffalo NY, and Congress' LIGHTNING response with an anti-white bill. WOW. Things never get done THIS quick.

The shooting and the Dems PUPPET media response along with Schmuck Schumer's talking points and Biden's "white supremacy" alarmist BS and Merrick Garland's TOTAL BS.

This is all a PRODUCTION, ALL planned with perfect choreography by all involved INCLUDING THE SHOOTER WHO WAS PROBABLY GROOMED TO DO WHAT HE DID WHILE IN PSYCH WATCH. After all, WHO knows WHO ALL THE WOULD-BE SHOOTERS ARE BEFORE THEY SHOOT?: THE FIB, THAT'S WHO!

As for the media... HOW ABOUT YOU ALL SHOW US YOUR CIA, FIB, DOJ, DHS, NSA, OR WHATEVER BADGES YOU CARRY because you sure as hell ARE PUPPETS for one or more of these agencies!

I'm sure Biden & Schumer will condemn this racist for targeting white people in a deadly hate crime right?

Yawn 🥱 I could not care less about the opinion of an INCEL Mentally Damaged individual who has no plans on being a productive member of society.
The real problem is that our kids are not taught anything and sure seriously lagging far behind in comparison to the rest of the world.

“..Schumer is a lot more dangerous to this country than another terrorist....”

Smucky and his flying monkeys are the real terrorist threat to the USA.
The SOB should have been jailed back when he threatened those SCOTUS judges.
The sooner this vile POS assumes room temperature and becomes worm food, the better off this country will be.

This bill. which includes “white supremacy” 15 times with no mention of other skin colors, should not pass, but what if it does (mainly because cowardly senators are afraid of “racism” smears)?

"The bill, H.R. 350, would create dedicated domestic terrorism offices in the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice and the FBI."

These additional resources aren't intended for mass shooters. They are intended for US.

So they traded the Ministry of Truth for the Ministry of Love. This is nothing more than the democrat party gestapo. Please God let this fail. BUT of course Mittens will help drag it past the finish line.
