Gunman: 'kill as many republicans as possible'

The title clearly states: Gunman: 'kill as many republicans as possible' to make it seem like the gunman said it when in fact it was an opinion by someone. To be more accurate, in accordance with the link itself, a better more honest title would have been something more clearer: Rep. Mark Walker says gunman targeted congressional baseball practice 'to kill as many Republican members as possible'.

You can disagree and think the title is rightly referenced but I disagree.

His OP was spot on.
The gunman was also out to kill as many R's as possible.
You can read the title two ways, but if there is any question, he accurately quotes the Representative in the OP.

I understand why the attempted diversion though. It's a terrible story. And the Bernie Sanders supporter trying to kill masses of R's is tough to stomach.

Yes, he does but he knew exactly what he was doing with the title. I think you do too.
 
You asked about the 2nd Amendment.

Try sticking to your question. I answered it, and seems I did so in a manner where you see the validity, but are so welded to your POV that nothing will penetrate deep enough to have you contemplate you changing your opinion.

So much for being open-minded, and correcting bad logic with better logic.

That's why I am a former Leftist. I once believed virtually the entire palette of fare sold by the Demokrats. As I grew, asked and analyzed, I could see the massive holes in their logic.

I changed... because I was open-minded. I still am, but there hasn't been anything logical that would have me change back. Fact is, the Left has become crazy and dangerous in the pursuit of their goals. A shame for the country, and those sucked into the poisonous vortex.

So what was it you wanted to correct about my defense of the 2nd Amendment?

When has a good guy with a gun ever worked out? Meaning a civilian. I know it fulfills a Byronesque hero syndrome, childish desires and fantasies but in the real world a heavily armed population is risky.

You cannot be serious, but you are.*

This time for example.

Had there not been good guys with guns, the chances are all of them, or close to all would be dead.

If Congressmen had firearms with them, and there was no security detail, those guns would have helped save lives.

A disarmed population is risky. You ever heard of the Communists? You know how many 10's of millions died because the entire population was disarmed?

You following Venezuela?

I detest the march towards cultural pandemonium that we are headed towards. It's sad to think kids may be raised in an environment where GOP and DEM are used as slurs against one another.
 
Yes, he does but he knew exactly what he was doing with the title. I think you do too.

Hopefully he changes it to: Demokrat Bernie Sanders Support attempted massacre of Republicans.

That make you happy?
