thewhyteboar Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I’ve typed and deleted about 5 different replies. Let’s just say this: this is no reason for anyone to own a gun, and every day that goes on without a ban—a total ban of every single type of gun that exists—is a day that allows evil into homes, schools, and public spaces. The cost of owning this deadly object is paid in the blood of children, and you need to look deeply into a mirror and decide how much blood you are willing to pay for your hobby. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Censorship, etc. If they love dying Jesus they can see dead children caused by their love of guns. One of the most harrowing things I've ever read was an account of one of the survivors of Uvalde. Playing dead while covered in the corpses of your classmates. If you hear about that and still want to justify having your toys.... I don't know what else to say. Everyone thinks they're John McClain in their own head. If someone breaks into your house, they're just after your shit. If they're not after your shit, the gun isn't going to help you unless you keep a loaded gun under your pillow. And if you keep a loaded gun under your pillow, it is like 1000% more likely that if it is ever discharged, it won't hurt some hypothetical intruder. It will hit you or someone you love. I've said it before, there are people who live in rural areas who do need to shoot things like coyotes, wolves, and boars from time to time, but they don't need a glock or an assault rifle to do it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CayceG Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Texas Mass Shooter Posted Neo-Nazi Content, FBI Document Reveals WWW.ROLLINGSTONE.COM A man who shot multiple people at an Allen, TX mall frequently posted white supremacist and neo-Nazi materials on social media, an FBI document says. Rolling Stone reports that the shooter in Allen was kicked out of the Army in 2008 due to mental health concerns. Quote The FBI’s “review and triage of the subject’s social media accounts revealed hundreds of postings and images to include writings with racially or ethnically motivated violent extremist rhetoric, including neo-Nazi materials and material espousing the supremacy of the white race,” the bulletin reads. The document also says the alleged shooter was discharged from the military in 2008 amid “mental health concerns.” Investigators believe the shooter was a neo-Nazi and an “incel,” according to an internal email circulated by Texas law enforcement. The Army said he shouldn't be around and didn't want him having a gun. He was an incel. His social media was steeped in neo-Nazi material. We should be doing far more to identify, track, and prevent these people from doing harm. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CastletonSnob Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Read a Tweet about the shooting to not blame the Texas politicians, but the Texans who voted them in after the grid and Uvalde. Texas has some of the worst voter suppression in the country. The legislature is trying to make it so the Secretary of State can rerun elections in Harris County if they feel like there's evidence of voter fraud. But keep victim-blaming, I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, and Texas all have a small white majority or even a minority.

Mississippi is majority black. Louisiana is slightly majority white, but new Orleans is majority black. That's what I mean, it's the white minority (or dangerously close to a minority) tying to keep themselves in power where you find the most oppressive voting laws 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
