Thoughts and prayers may have prevented millions of shootings.  You just can’t know because you can’t count things that didn’t happen. 

[LonghornSean 3994]

Nope, nothing can be done to stop these incidents from happening.

Fortification for soft targets huh? Schools (elementary through college), churches, malls, Walmart, movie theaters, festivals, bars, restaurants, night clubs, private residences. But sure it’s us who are not serious.

This is insane:

It’s not insane. It’s the gloating of the victor. She’s not even serious about the “solutions” in her second post. The first pair was the point.
The gun nuts look at each shattered body as a sign that they’ve won. The broken corpses are actually trophies. An undeniable piece of proof that victory is theirs.
And she’s right. They’ve won. Not only can we not do ANYTHING to reduce the dissemination and use of weapons of mass killing, the gun nuts are ensuring that the proliferation of those weapons is increasing at an astonishing rate. And then, they blame THE REST OF US when the inevitable happens.
It’s evil, of course. But that’s the game these days. Just unbridled evil.

This is what got me. She somehow is blaming the gun control advocates for the proliferation of mass shootings. Just wow.

The increase in AR-15s is a horrifying indictment of America, in the grips of a malignant madness. Megyn Kelly's comments show that.

There's an entire army of kids being groomed for a fanatical future of religion and ultraviolence—via religious warrior propaganda from firms like Daniel Defense and MAGA-Christian politicians. Note the prayer emoji. 

By ignoring the "no law" establishing religion part of The First Amendment and the "well-regulated" part of Second Amendment, both Amendments are being distorted to further MAGA militant fanaticism. They want a violent militarized society. It's obvious. They believe that is a winning strategy. Not peace. Violence.

guns, relative to other consumer products like cars or fridges or phones, essentially last forever.  it's not like you need to replace a 1911 every few years because the new one has leather and laser cruise control and air conditioned seats.  but every once in a while the gun manufacturers happen upon a new category, and, in this instance, it was a semi-auto carbine that could accept a lot of accessories.  *eventually* there's a saturation point.

This is pure doublethink, which Orwell warned us about. Surly friends, we must realize doublethink is not mere lying or hypocrisy or gaslighting.

From the book 1984: 

"Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory thoughts in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them as true. The Party intellectual (Megyn Kelly, et al) knows in which direction memories must be altered. He knows he is playing tricks with reality, but by the exercise of doublethink, he satisfies himself that reality is not violated. The process has to be conscious, or it would not be carried out with precision, but has to be unconscious, or it would bring a feeling of falsity and guilt."

Doublethinkers like Kelly (and zillions of others) literally stand astride two realities, taking great pride in their conscious ability to be unconscious. That's how they can argue for no gun controls and blame mass shootings on those who want gun controls.

I just retweeted the video of that kid and his mom running toward the camera.

Do we have a list of these folks that we can innundate with these things every time they tweet?

That interview was particularly brutal. It’s like listening to a WWII veteran talk about what they saw on the beaches of Normandy or in Bastogne.
 

Except in 2023 America it’s a family shopping for jeans at the outlet mall. 

[Hermanator 7039]

I live in Allen. I knew it was only a matter of time before it happened here locally in this northeast part of the metroplex. 

Thankfully I hate the outlet so only go once a year for Christmas shopping but only on a Wednesday and only after 8 pm. My wife and the girls like to go there occasionally though and could easily have been today. She got me a shirt at that H&M not too long ago. 

It's all just shit. As long as millions keep voting republican it can never change.

Honestly, when does it become time to target them? How bad is bad enough to justify it? To make their lives and the lives of their families as disposable as they've made ours?

Yep. We've been there multiple times as a family as my wife goes to the BR outlet up there. I have a distinct memory of taking my girls there after a soccer tournament. We ate at one of the fast food places around there. It was mid-November 2015. Wife and I were going to Paris for her birthday the next year. Read on my phone about the Bataclan terrorist shootings while my kids were finishing up their meals. Had to pause a bit and say do we really want to take a trip to some place that could be that dangerous? I mean they are so close to Muslim fundamentalists who want to kill Westerns. Of course we went and it was perfectly safe. Little did I realize the terror I was worried about would be a commonplace thing in this country and I had to just hope our number would never come up here. We're such a broken country. We make it so easy for angry people to unleash massive amounts of destruction on the most vulnerable. I'm sure if you could do a study on these shooters, you'd find out pretty easily why they target our children, the most vulnerable of all of us. Maybe it's anger over their own childhoods. Maybe it's anger that some kids are doing well or have parents that love them. Or maybe they just want to destroy something pretty. The real sadness is why we let them do this. Our society created a vaccine in under 6 months to stop a virus from killing multiple millions. Yet we can do absolutely nothing about firearms that kill hundreds on a daily basis.

Keith Self can go fuck himself

It's always politics you jackwagon. Didn't Newt tell you?

 

[Hermanator 7039]

Oh they want to talk about a lack of mental health institutions in this country?

Well let's see in 1980 democrat president Carter signed the Mental Health Systems Act of 1980 to bolster the funding for mental health institutions in the US. A year later republican president Reagan signed the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981 that repealed pretty much all of it and cut budgeting for mental health even further. In the 42 years since republicans have been responsible for further cuts. 

So that's on you republican fucks too. The entire problem is on you. 

[Gengs1 2583]

Did we check on the immigration status on the victims yet cause if they are here illegally then they don’t count? Or if they didn’t come here they wouldn’t gotten shot?

Putin appears to be thinking about the blowie he got from Megyn the night before.

[MonkeyDoughnut 10232]

IMO There is plenty of room to define AR15 style weapons as "destructive devices" to not have to overcome 2A.  I never thought Roe v Wade would get overturned either so I'm not against pushing for 2A modifications either. There are plenty of weapons we are currently not allowed to possess. At the very least these weapons should be made cost prohibitive.

Think about that.  Mass shootings can be ignored because some people don't know what "AR" stands for.  The mind rot is real.

[Brisketexan 105095]

Yep. Like clockwork, the right has come out with their standard trio of responses: 1)) it’s too soon to talk politics, BUT…. 2) thoughts and prayers, and we need more God and Jesus, and 3) the solution to there being so many highly lethal guns out there is…we need more people with more guns.

We are the worst fucking society. I hate it. I hate that they’ve won. That they’ve created their dream, and the inevitable result is a little girl with her face blown off. Oh…who am I kidding. “A” little girl with her face blown off - no, it’s been dozens of them. We’ll get up to the hundreds, probably in the next 5 years. Every one of them a trophy to put on the shelf as a symbol of their victory. It’s over. They’ve won. This is who we are, and what we will be, forever.
