Based on your histrionitcs, I'm gonna go with ignore, and figure there's a reason the banhammer hasn't come down on you just yet.

Damn, you're a persistent one. Where did you come from? Breitbart? 4chan? Stormfront? What kind of demons do you have that you feel the need to flog this?

First of all, learn to spell the word you pretend to understand to characterize my comments by, which would still make you wrong in using it to begin with. But I suspect you are wrong a lot about a lot of things in life and in thought, but I digress.

Second of all, there is zero reason to ban me other than what I've said, but that would be typical of you overly sensitive types who can't deal with reality so it's better to make the those you disagree with go away vs. actually trying to learn things, which shallow thinking leftists like you have a hard time doing. You know because of preconceived notions that you get from your daily instructions on how to think from places like Wonkette.

Why are you obsessed with where I come from. None of the places you list is even remotely accurate, but try harder. Why is it what I say illicits such a vehement need for you to act like a douche. If you disagree with me, then move on, there is nothing for you to see here or are you one of those people that can't let go whenever you are presented with thoughts or ideas counter to your preconceived notions?

The gross misinterpretation of the 2A, plus the USAF not documenting his discharge properly, put that AR-15 in his hands, doofus.

And no, he is not a "radical marxist atheist democrat antifa scum", he's your garden-variety domestic abuser who took his domestic sitch to his in-law's church.

FFS please read before not-commenting. We don't deal with Fucks Nooz talking points here.

Please, you have zero clue on the meaning of the 2A. You can't even get past its actual wording without twisting in knots over it. Also, He was radical Marxist antifa scum. His posting of a picture on 4chan with him in it standing in front of an antifa flag with his cohorts saying something big in Texas is going to happen tomorrow as a caption. The fact that the motive was a domestic abuse situation doesn't take away from the fact of who he was, what he did, and what his ideology is. He wasn't a garden variety abuser, he was typical Marxist atheist humanist scum who just happened to also be a domestic abuser, who believed he was better than others because of his ideology.

The USAF not documenting his violations has zero to do with the NRA. Your argument has zero to do with blaming the NRA. Your apparent lack of understanding of the 2A by proclaiming it a gross misinterpretation has nothing to do with the 2A. All the USAF did was prove that another massive government bureaucracy failed again to provide a modicum of protection against innocent citizens, but lets say they did put in the violation notice into the gun registry database and he wasn't able to acquire an AR15. He most likely would have acquired one elsewhere or some other firearm illegally, which in reality still proves that your anti-gun control zealotry fails for the various laws to stop illegal acquisition of firearms. Chicago and New York being the great examples of gun control there is so far. The 2A is quite simple in its explanation notwithstanding and you want more government to create more laws to control guns?

Of course your argument is illogical The Samaritans were a bit late on the scene to save 26 people, including a baby. That's a piss-poor excuse for an intervention. Isn't your god supposed to be all-knowing and all-powerful?

And bad things happen to good people, but a minority of those bad things involve guns. We may not be able to prevent hurricanes, but we could do something about guns other than advocating prayer.

I don't take all opportunities, but the current hateful state of "Christianity" in this country certainly supplies plenty of ammunition--to coin a phrase.

Much of it is also an example of how fear can be used to control people.

Still works, especially when the GOP throws in a few scapegoats to hate.

I think I understand your "logic." Clearly you decide first what you want to believe and then believe it without any supporting facts.

For example: All atheists are evil people. This guy was evil. Therefore this guy was an atheist.

Actually Trump and the Repubs plan to cut funding for both mental health and opioid treatment.

Technically that is doing something.

Too many liberals play Russian Roulette with their vote. I'm not sure what the payoff is--feeling good about being too pure to compromise?

That is bad thinking. When the choice is between a mild ego buzz and a President Trump, don't take the risk. Trump is America's bullet through the brain.

If we have to elect mediocre or even Blue Dog Dems to win in 2018 it's the smart thing to do. House and Senate control are determined by party headcount and even Blue Dogs have heads.

Thanks to the death cult that is American conservatism, the goalposts on this issue have shifted into dismal territory. When a situation like this occurs, the first inclination for a whole ton of those inhuman degenerates is to talk about the whole thing in terms of military tactics, divert discussions into needless esotericism about the attackers' equipment, etc... What's truly harrowing is that this increasingly passes for 'sanity' in a society that's collapsing into oblivion because its constituents are less human than they are consumer.

They were heading this way for years.

Fascism 101: One's enemies are simultaneously evil geniuses and cripplingly weak/incompetent.

American conservatives spent their whole lives with their brains being pickled inside of their television sets. It's no wonder they view the likes of Clinton, etc... the way five year olds view Skeletor or Cobra Commander.
