Maybe if the Good Guys wore white cowboy hats?
Fully loaded, I would presume?
And 28 dead (so far) in the latest mass shooting. No doubt the gun filth are circling the wagons as I type.
I wonder if it’s still too soon to talk about gun control. Hmm, I think I see a pattern here. Keep up the mass shootings at intervals, and it will always be too soon to talk about it.
It was the perfect time to talk about gun control and then this guy went and killed 28 or so more. Time to reset the “time to talk about it” clock again.
God, I hope the Congress offers thoughts and prayers. What would we ever DO without them offering thoughts and prayers every time a mass shooting occurs. Of course, for many people a couple dozen deaths every week or two is the price they’re all too willing to pay for the right to masturbate with their guns.
Too bad, four weeks seems like a respectful time until it’s no longer “too soon” to talk about gun control and just about to become “too late to talk about something that happened that long ago”, and no sooner is the four weeks up than bam!
Gun nuts are obviously beyond the reach of logic. They probably won’t even bother telling us that the answer is “more good guys with guns” because that’s still floating around in the air from last time, like the stench of burnt gunpowder. I think the new tack will be “answer to what? Is there a problem?”
The comments on Infowars are split between “false flag/crisis actors” and “arm yourselves, they’re coming to get our guns!”.
Some think it’s real, some think it’s phony. They won’t admit it’s one of their own.
Wonder how quiet Trump will be?
No worries. President Chump is said to be monitoring the situation from Japan. No doubt action is imminent … NOT!!
Directly proportional to the Whiteness of the shooter.
White guy guns down 58 people in Las Vegas: Eh, what you gonna do? Sucks to be them, but gotta have guns.
White guy guns down 25 people in Texas: Eh, what you gonna do? Sucks to be them, but gotta have guns.
Muslim runs down 8 people in New York with a rented truck: OMG Muslims! Send him to Gitmo! Execute him! It’s all Chuck Schumer’s fault! Gotta seal the borders! OMG, Muslims!
“I send both my thoughts and my prayers, out to those effected by this latest unpredictable shooting. Now as constitution supporting Americans they knew what the founding fathers’ signed them up for, but I guess it still hurts. So we condemn, in the strongest possible terms, this egregious display of hatred and violence… on many sides, on many sides…”
You forgot to mention that they are the best thoughts and prayers. Ever.
White guys just had mental problems: “I think mental health is the problem here. This isn’t a guns situation.” said our Commander in Cheetos.
The brown guy, however, was radicalized and evil. Mental health issues had nothing to do with that animal!
Well, plus it was a gun vs. a truck. Crazy people use guns, terrorists use trucks.
The (failing?) New York Times editorial today contains a count-up clock since the Sutherland Springs shooting–and the Vegas shooting and the Dallas shooting and the Orlando shooting and the San Bernadino shooting and the Colorado Springs shooting and the Roseburg, OR shooting and the Chattanooga shooting and the Charlestown shooting and the Marysville, WA shooting and the Isla Vista, CA shooting and the Fort Hood shooting and the Washington Navy Yard shooting and the Santa Monica shooting and the Sandy Hook shooting. Maybe that can help is determine the right time to talk about this.
Seems to me the appropriate time is before we add more shootings to the list.
Well, in Festering Anus’ defense, the white guys are dead, so no need for Gitmo.
And even it would have a hard time trying to spin Chuck Schumer et al as a source of the gun violence problem. But I bet if it did, its base would believe.
The Texas shooter:
1-Beat up his wife
2-Beat up his girlfriend
3-Spent a year in Air Force jail
4-Got discharged from the Air Force with a Bad Conduct discharge
5-Clubbed his dog
6-Spent an hour in a standoff with the cops
And then got a gun permit.
But at least he was turned down for concealed carry.
Oops, 2 should be “beat up his daughter”, not girlfriend.
See? He’s not *that *bad. At least he didn’t cheat on his wife.
