Yeah, we could go all year putting up various gun stories, well I could. I bet you'll run out of your type first. Another couple days, another mass shooting in the USA. I already have plenty of guns and ammo, I'm good. Send them my way, things are different on the dio23 autonomous zone.

The thing I will never understand is why anyone accepts the idea of somebody calling himself (or those who think like him) a "good guy with a gun." Shouldn't it be someone else's responsibility to call him that? Isn't there a bit of self-selection and self-validation going on there? A credibility gap? Crazy people generally believe they are the sane ones, you know. Now if someone who does not use guns calls somebody else a good guy with a gun, I'll likely give that opinion a little more weight.

I don't have any good guys with a gun. Unless I consider myself, my personal gun control is excellent.

Your slipping. The article made reference to more violence over the last year. Is it part of Maxine Waters 'More Confrontational Plan' ?

the further off center you are politically, the harder it is to distinguish between the center and the opposite extreme. I showed this about 10 years ago on a thread called "Was Stalin A Liberal".

Like the post office shootings in the past, you're seeing collective behavior being glorified by the liberal media. $$ takes precedence in 'for profit' media companies, while utilizing common human behavior. Blood sells.

I read it as the media is making a big deal about something that should be, at most, a local "In other news today, ..." story. It is just human nature to kill others.

I guess you're just not supposed to care that shootings and mass shootings are really happening? Honestly his post made absolutely no f'ing sense, so who knows.

When the NRA arms every black person in America, I will believe it is really about guns. If that's what it takes for you to believe it's about the guns, your belief will never happen. The NRA doesn't arm anyone, you have to go out and buy your own weapons. Case in point, 7 million new minority gun owners in urban areas, the NRA didn't buy one of those guns. The best they can do is attempt to reduce regulation, and that applies to everyone. One of the things they work on is lowering/preventing onerous taxes being added to firearms/ammunition, such as in Chicago. Those increased taxes prevent the lower income groups from exercising their right to own a firearm/protect themselves, instead forcing them to rely on city police forces and their systemic racism. BLM cares about this, however might they have a new elitist in training, don't want to be living too close to the 'peaceful protests'. A Black Lives Matter co-founder and self-professed 'trained Marxist' has raised eyebrows by purchasing a $1.4 million Los Angeles home, in a largely white district.
Patrisse Cullors, a 37-year-old 'artist, organizer, and freedom fighter', has bought a three bedroom, three bathroom house in Topanga Canyon, complete with a separate guest house and expansive back yard, reports
The home is described in the real estate listing as having 'a vast great room with vaulted and beamed ceilings'.
The realtors write that the large back yard is 'ideal for entertaining or quietly contemplating cross-canyon vistas framed by mature trees'.
The AP reported that Black Lives Matter took in $90 million in donations last year. It's not clear if or how Cullors is paid by the organization, as its finances are opaque.
In her new zip code, 88 per cent of residents are white and 1.8 per cent black, according to the census.
www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9456145/Shell-pick-white-people-complain-BLM-founder-buys-1-4M-LA-home.htmlIs your point that the neighborhood is too white and she shouldn't be allowed to live there? She needs to stay in a black neighborhood, where she belongs? Should all people who believe that Black Lives Matter not be allowed to buy a 3 bedroom house in a nice neighborhood, or only the black people? I'm curious why you seemed to think that people here would find the information that this woman bought a home so shocking and upsetting?

Awww, somebody's fee fee's get hurt by a BLM elitist, reality check ? I hope you didn't donate to the 'cause'. Other than patiently waiting for this to happen, and I knew it would, I can verify that this evil conservative had nothing to do with it, nor Trump. A grown man using baby talk is a repulsive thing to witness. I thought about trying to comment on the rest but as usual, it's non-sensical.

Colorado governor signs two gun measures into law nearly a month after Boulder shootingColorado Democratic Gov. Jared Polis signed two bills tightening gun regulations into law on Monday, nearly a month after the mass shooting in Boulder, Colorado, left a police officer and nine others dead.
Both measures were introduced before the mass shooting occurred on March 22 at a grocery store, but the tragedy added to the public pressure and urgency to act on legislation, lawmakers have said.

Troll 23 lives in BF Arkansas where $1.4 gets you the governor’s pad. Of course she has numerous income streams and used -0- BLM money. How dare a Black Woman Of BLM buy a house there!?!? Dude has issues...

I'm sorry your honor, I didnt know the gun was missing. Activist judge, "you're guilty". Case is appealed, ruled unconstitutional due to vagueness, as there is no duty to check your firearm supply, nor is it in the law as a duty. It will work however, as one more nonsensical regulations only the law abiding will follow, for a while until the proper charge is challenged in court.

A grown man using baby talk is a repulsive thing to witness. I thought about trying to comment on the rest but as usual, it's non-sensical. That's what happens when I spend to much time talking to Bob, Happy. It rubs off a bit. I'll try to keep it more in tune with their maga heads and psychic vampires, so you're not offended. See, now is the time where you chastise them also, no ? I'm only guessing that you're taking the high road on partisan insulting ? In fairness I'll watch what you post next, everyone deserves a chance to show they're 'true' position on this. Just look back on reply #34, on the Trump Russia collusion thread. You've been there already. I hope your fee, fees aren't hurt with this, lol.
