Democratic lawmakers on Saturday responded to shootings in Buffalo, N.Y., and Milwaukee, Wis., that together left more than 10 dead and dozens injured, decrying the violent attacks and issuing calls to action.

In Buffalo on Saturday, a gunman walked into a Tops Friendly Market wearing body armor, pulled out a rifle and opened fire, The Associated Press reported. Authorities said the shooter livestreamed the attack.

The suspect killed at least 10 people before he was taken into custody by the authorities. Authorities said they are investigating the incident as a hate crime.

‘It doesn’t have to be this way’

In Reality (”Where I live” ~ I Miss You, Rush!) if you MORONS would stop voting for Socialists, things WOULD improve!

Put some God and Law & Order back into a town and watch what happens! Stop ACCEPTING this, and elect those that want Law & Order and watch what happens.

STOP destroying families (Family = 1 Dad, 1 Mom, MARRIED, with children) and make it easier to lock up the mentally ill!

How many false predictions of doom are you going to make? You just do it over and over and over again.

The filibuster won’t be nuked. AR15s aren’t going to be banned.

NYSRPA is going to come down any day now and it will put serious handcuffs on both the State and Federal Government.

I’d offer you a bet on the outcome here, but you cower whenever anyone offers you such a bet. I’ll just bookmark this and come back and feed you your claim chowder, just like your national mandatory vaccine nonsense that you were blowharding about.

No panic just like the last bill Clinton ban it will be full of holes. The left has been waiting for the political capital to gin up their base. This guy just handed them that capital big time. I would expect Congress to put up a bill in the next week or so. Cornpop will sign anything that is sent to him. So much for the diesel crisis or formula it’s now going to be 24/7 white supremacists and assault weapons the media is already in a frenzy. NY state already has the laws they want to pass at the National level so it’s already proven to be ineffective it’s the optics and to be able to “do something” they need to keep the base in a frenzy until midterms. It will be interesting to see what wins for most important abortion or assault weapons.

The problems he is helping clean up would possibly not be an issue. There were plenty of negros living in non-slave status.

You think they and their descendants are causing much of the turmoil and demanding the nation kiss their @ss and give them free sh!t?

Abortion is ten times the importance to the left as guns are.

Abortion is their religious sacrament.

If only New York had really strict, even punitive, gun control laws!

Oh wait, it does!

Gee … almost like they … planned it …

Like clockwork when the drum needs beating, some NGO activates his stooge.

Been seeing this since the Clintoon days.

You are an idiot I was right about the vaccine mandates even called it down to the exact month from months in advance. I also was right about when the FDA would approve the vaccines again to the month. Are you old enough to remember the Bill Clinton AWB or are you 24 and have no clue. Congress has been waiting for the excuse to do another ban with this administration it’s surprising they haven’t already since they have all three branches of government only the filibuster stops them from passing their dream list. Two things have enough base support to nuke the filibuster abortion and guns if you can’t see that then it’s on you. Talk to any Democrat pick one every one of them will tell you abortion and guns are two of the most important issues more than the economy ,more than Ukraine, more than inflation. Leave the echo chamber and talk to some real democrats their hill to die on is 100% abortion followed closely by assault weapons. Inflation is not a huge issue for government GS level workers they get COL adjustments every year. State workers too and city plus municipal employees. None are going to jump ship for the GOP just because the party is having inflation issues.

You can tell the perp was a left wing nut when the commies are already talking about getting rid of guns..I skimmed over the perps manifesto, he was NO Conservative, No Republican..and never mentioned Trump’s name once..instead he said that since he was 12 yrs old he was a Communist, than became a left leaning moderate authoritarian..so when you see the left focusing on guns you know he was one of theirs

No you weren’t. You kept citing Jacobsen, which had nothing to do with a federal mandate and then “guaranteed” that there would be a national forced mandate by “November.”

Not only wasn’t there one, SCOTUS struck down what you claimed was OSHA’s “airtight” employer mandate.

Just like you were wrong there, you will be wrong about the filibuster getting nuked and a national AR15 ban.

I’m calling you on your doomer post. Put your money where you mouth is.

Let’s pick a date, how about July 1? If the filibuster is still there and no AR15 ban has passed, then you agree to leave FR forever. If I’m wrong, I’ll leave.

If that’s too steep for your blood, how about a 50.00 donation to FR?

What are you afraid of? (Other than your track record of making false predictions of doom.)

Be interesting to find out if the suspect had ever been in that store and if he was local to that area.
