Was this really necessary?

As far as I can tell, two of the greatest factors in nutjobs going off and realizing their objectives are:

A. A prior history of criminal violence.
B. Easy access to firearms.

There could be many others, but your post just seems pointless.
 
So much like the violent righties.

How quickly we forget. Maybe it isn't political orientation but rather political prejudice that is the issue.

But what do I know? I hate all Trump supporters so who am I to judge? :mrgreen:

But prejudice is totally fine for you, isn't it? What's the purpose of the emoticon? Are you not quite willing to admit you're dead serious about your hate for those with differing political leanings?

C. The internet doesn't filter out unreality, which is vastly different from most prior information provision systems.

Not pointless, just amusing.

Oh, I absolutely despise Trump supporters. But I won't hurt them. Why would I do that? Look at these Trump supporters who once defended right wing media and rhetoric through atrocities perpetrated by right wing assailants now condemning left wing media and rhetoric with a left wing assailant. Is that the level of thinking I want to aspire to? That sort of glorious lack of self awareness? Nah! I can hate just fine without being violent or a hypocrite.

Good to know that hateful dick is sufficient for you. :lol:

More and more, posting on social media does seem to be the common denominator in many of these shooting sprees. It's likely that's where they indoctrinate themselves, too.

After the shooting of one of their own, it looks like the GOP congress is starting to think their speech might have something to do with it, too.

what do you consider "easy access to firearms"? this guy apparently was from Illinois which has the sort of gun control laws that gave sarah brady wet dreams. Since he was a resident of Illinois, he couldn't have legally bought any firearms in Virginia

Quote a single Trump supporter that was defending atrocities by right wing assailants that are now condemning left wing assailants.

Just one.

LOL Like all the posts about how lefties are the violent ones aren't about hate? Right now the ratio is about 50 to 1 in favor of the righties having the most haters.

Nobody's defending atrocities. However, I don't recall too many righties who are now demanding that lefties "own" this shooter who were rushing to accept, say, Pizzagate Guy as part of their ideology.

And yet the Leftist remedy to those problems always is to disarm legal responsible gun owners.

This shows how desperate the Left is: 3 examples and none are actually politically motivated, First is an antiabortionist, which is so rare that you can almost count the number of incident on both hands. The second is a crazy guy who thought he was protection kids and accidently shot his gun into the floor. There is no evidence Roof had any specific Right Left ideology.

On the other hand Leftist motivated violence has become quit common over the last year.

What President trump is pointing out is the only real evidence od election fraud was by Democrats not the Russians.

I'm unfamiliar with IL gun control statutes, but someone with a history of DV has, IMO and to my experience, no business possessing one.

You Fact Based Partisan Hack ..You :mrgreen:
 
I'm unfamiliar with IL gun control statutes, but someone with a history of DV has, IMO and to my experience, no business possessing one.

Also...why do state gun control laws matter, when one can just go to another state that has more relaxed gun laws? What's to prevent them from just bringing it back with them? Just asking because I'm curious...I see 2nd amendment folk bring up state laws, but unless the law is same across all states, what difference do they make to criminals?
 
Easy enough to take out members of congress.

that's worthless given in Mexico its almost impossible for people to legally own firearms and dozens of police, judges etc have been murdered by armed drug cartel members.

in other words, passing laws don't prevent bad people from having access to firearms

this demonstrates the paucity of knowledge we usually see from anti gun posters.

1) you cannot buy a handgun in another state-even from a licensed dealer

2) you cannot buy any gun from anyone in another state who is not a licensed dealer. So private sales that are INTERSTATE are BANNED FEDERALLY

3) its a state violation to buy a gun in another state and bring it to a state where that gun is not legal

so how many other laws do you want-let me guess-you want to ban people from owning guns?

under FEDERAL LAW-pursuant to the idiotic Lautenberg Amendment, even a MISDEMEANOR DV conviction (which could have been a guy slapping his daughter for getting knocked up) creates a lifetime federal ban on legally owning or possessing firearms

Err, Turtle, maybe turn down your angst a few notches, we've already established I'm not anti-gun between you and I in another thread, you even liked my comment. I was just asking the damn question because I *don't* know...see my location. Calm dafuq down, brother! lol...

I recall pretty much every time there is a rw shooter there is always somebody rushing in to say that he's not rw. When that fails it's "he's a lone nut". Same voices generally rush to tell us that this last shooter is emblematic of the left or a significant portion of the left.
