    I don't give a **** about El Salvador. They can solve their own damn problems.

    When MS13 walks in here and does the same thing, then we can talk.

    You're just a chicken with your head cut off when you talk nonsense about immigrants pulling off the same **** as what limp dick gun nutters does to our schools every 3-5 weeks.

    Well then stfu about MS13 then, I said criminals are pouring into this country... Your reading comprehension is way off, no one is talking about immigrants... I wasn't responding to school shootings, I was responding towards a comment that we have more gun violence... Well yeah we have more gun violence, this is the #1 destination in the world for everyone whether looking to start a new life and fulfil your dreams to criminals who are running away from the cartels in their countries that are after them. How hard is that to understand? Common sense is not very common these days.....

    You're the one that mentioned them.

    BTW I've read your lame arguments in the other thread.

    You might as well blame gun violence on terrorists in the US, naturalized or on greencards, because "terrorists are more likely to commit a crime than a law abiding citizen". There's your weak numbers for even you to follow.

    And what a willfully dumb and negligent post for a 1st or 2nd gen immigrant... No one else gives a **** that YOU follow the law when you look just like the "criminals" you're trying to distance yourself from.

    Next thing you'll boast is "try living in a cave like a terrorist and claim that it's better than gun toting shitbirds, but you won't because you're a coward". That's the same weak connection you're getting at.

    No one saw it coming.

    Which of the 213 mass shootings as of THIS YEAR are you talking about? How many were criminals in their past? What is that an overwhelming percentage compared to shooters without a prior criminal record?

    That home grown connection is what most sane people are getting at.

    And obviously you don't give a **** about these victims when you're too worried about being a victim yourself enough to oppose a ban on assault weapons... Most adults don't even want a ban on guns, and as a start a ban on rifles that can easily start mass casualty events.

    These are not the times to be discussing gun control anyways, that's the very 1st post I made on the subject.... From either sides, pro or against. I said it because children lost their lives and parents lost their children. It was a tragedy, it should not ever be taken advantage of for political reasons. On either side, the same way I don't think taking guns from the people as is our right I also don't agree its the right time to be discussing lose gun laws and arming teachers.... Its disgusting for either side to push their agendas on this tragedy.

    It's the 213th mass shooting of the year. 692 last year.

    Mass shootings are defined as 4 or more victims. Even if you whittle it down to the big ones, there's never a right time to discuss these tragedies because they happen far too often.

    Nothing is hidden about that. You're not listening as usual. Their power is the passion of the people for their right to bear arms. If the NRA told its Texan members to vote out Abbott, Abbott would be gone without a dollar spent.

    The last statement isn't about membership numbers. It's about their solitude around gun rights being above everything else

    Why aren’t people blaming the state or New York for this kid like they are blaming Texas ?

    My guess is that Gendron purchased the guns months before the shooting, modified his AR, and possibly obtained illegal magazines for it as well. He also purchased guns in his possession from Pennsylvania, a state with more permissive gun laws than NY.

    Ramos legally purchased guns a week before said shooting.

    From what I can see, it looks like Gendron had to do some work, visit multiple states, and possibly did illegal things through the process but Ramos did everything completely legal within a week.

    Also in New York, they already knew he made a threat about killing his schoolmates.
    I don't think these kids are dumb, they will find a way to get a gun if they intent to use it.

    Also what's worrying is the 3d print guns.

    Lol, ok, if you want to believe that go right ahead, But you've been hoodwinked. The NRA isn't about protecting your right to bear arms, it's about protecting the bottom line of gun companies. All the other stuff is fluff. Sorry to burst your bubble.

    Fatherhood is important .

    https://nypost.com/2022/05/26/salvador-ramos-father-he-shouldve-just-killed-me-instead/

    The father told the Daily Beast he had not been in his son’s life much of late due to his job away from Uvalde.
    He said he had also been away from his son due to the pandemic as he did not want to expose his own mother — who is suffering from cancer — to the virus. The COVID-19 restrictions strained the duo’s relationship, with his son refusing to speak to him about a month ago.

    The two hadn’t seen each other since, he said.

    BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — Law enforcement agencies in Buffalo are investigating whether a former federal agent knew in advance an 18-year-old white supremacist was going to attack the Tops on Jefferson Avenue, multiple sources told News 4.

    This story was first reported by The Buffalo News. Law enforcement sources with direct knowledge of the investigation told News 4 the former federal agent was among a small group of people to have regular interactions online with the gunman.

    About 30 minutes before he opened fire in the Tops parking lot, the shooter posted a racist diatribe and invitations to watch the massacre live on the social media site, discord.
