    I only wish there was a right winger there to blow his head off.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with them all. It won't ease their suffering and it won't make a difference but it will at least make us feel less guilty.

    Completely messed up person and a coward wearing large ear protection and talking about going out in his manifesto crap and in actuality doing everything to escape and evade and live. Prayers to the victims

    I wonder where the next will be.

    I am also curious when someone will end up killing hundreds. And if that will have any affect on people.

    The worst thing is how numb your society has become to this.

    We're more numb to the utter helplessness of our government than the tragedy itself.

    He needs to call himself out. He is encouraging people to target brown people

    Don't politicize!!!! Don't Show Their Faces!!! Don't Mention their names!!! Don't mention their inspirations or hatred!!!
    unless it's an undocumented immigrant then let's take the victim's parents on the maga tour and label all immigrants as rapists and murderers

    And then wonder why white nationalists are killing so many brown people.

    Oh, and let's compare this to Antifa throwing rocks

    Our country leads the world in the infamous stats for the highest # of mass shootings. Over 250 so far this year, far more than any other country on earth. Totally abysmal and unacceptable.

    In my opinion, I do not view America as a freedom country because of many mass shootings. The political needs to take an action right now, just remove the guns.

    It is an embarrassment when you compared to other countries. I am proud of other countries that restrict the guns.

    You see, 232 years ago some men got together and wrote down some words that can never be questioned or changed. In their wisdom, they saw the breadth of human possibility. They affirmed the dignity of every man through the US Constitution. They said everyone had the right to a musket to protect themselves against a tyrannical government and bears.

    They also would’ve **** their pants if they saw a telephone. Clearly, their grasp of the word in 1787 should be unchanging for time immemorial. Therefore, we can never do anything to question their ideals and must remain prisoner to the spectrum through which they viewed the world only when it comes to guns.

    I doubt it. Sandy Hook was the metric test on that, children...in school, still wasn't enough to get anything done.

    Ugh... Again, this is about deranged people wanting notoriety in the worst possible way. We have to stop giving it to them.

    Gun laws have become far more stringent in the past 50 years.
    Guns haven't increased in any real way in 30 years.

    Mass shootings have gone up expoentially since the Columbine attack.

    Figure out the real reason why these copycats are doing this.

    And I say this having never owned a gun.

    I was actually at Ft Bliss training last month and went to that Walmart a few times. I was also stationed there for 6 years so I’m very familiar with the area. The locals are overall very welcoming and kind.

    This is the typical white supremacy line of thought that has always been at the core of this nation. Terroristic acts against people of color for perceived slights has always been the norm. Racism is passed down through generations. It will never go away because it is beneficial to those in power.
