    Hm. He turns his phone sideways when filming a video. Maybe he is a liberal.

    We need to keep the focus on what’s important. All those people running and looking for shelter for their children aren’t important. All people shot and killed and all the families destroyed by it aren’t important either… what’s important is that the shooter have the right to buy guns, and that old men get to be strapped.

    Remember, that’s what’s important and that’s the valuation made.

    When these daily tragedies happen they say nothing because they want it to blow over and people to forget, because to them, their need to have a gun outweighs the 100+ Americans that die every single day from gun violence.

    What are you complaining about, the SCOTUS said you have the right to strap up when you leave the house.

    That’s what is important.

    I support a gun in the home for home protection. Outside the house….

    The problem about pulling a gun on someone else that has a gun… the odds of a bullet being fired probably increases exponentially…. So I’ll pass and take my chances.

    Sadly, I am not horrified and shocked anymore, I am not numb but this is becoming so common I almost expect it. When you have one side spouting garbage and lies like Alex Jones all the way up to trump then your going to have some fringe section of society that will do these types of things. Sad day for America when we should all be celebrating our freedoms or lack thereof

    There is no way I would sell an assault rifle to a guy who looked like this person. He looks like he just came from a satanic prayer group meeting.

    Illinois GOP Governor nominee: “The shooter is still at large so let’s pray for justice to prevail, and then let’s move on and let’s celebrate the independence of this nation.”

    Pray and then move on... while the shooter is still out there.

    It is the handguns and the Assault rifles, stupid. Anyone note that the gunman was 22 so the bridge too far law backed by the moderates that would have banned these weapons for folks not 21 would not have helped.

    video from the shooter's youtube page showing him mixed in with a crowd watching the presidential motorcade (not clear if it was Trump or Biden)

    not good to over rely on credentialism, random people on twitter often give better information

    It is because they don't care. They have decided that the ability to play G.I. Joe is more important than people dying from gun violence. Not only do they not care, they are angry that people are talking about it.

    "Thoughts and prayers" is code for "Shut up and lets move on".
