Gun control debate (merged)

He is a racist. And he committed a terroristic act on citizens of his own country. Therefore he is a racist domestic terrorist.

Why is that so hard for some to admit? There is no argument against it.
I wonder if they have ever done a study to see if racism is a mental disorder? I am not asking this to in any way to normalize or minimize the behavior, I just can't rap my head around how a person could be that way and not have something misfiring somewhere.

I think that replacement theory propaganda is certainly a right-wing political aim. Tucker has made it his newest piece of BS. Fostering hate among the followers is a major component of Trumpism and has been from day one.
It's the Bannon/Stone way. Are you guys still refusing to realize and accept that obvious fact?
Terrorism:
the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
Terrorist:
a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
 
Everyone seems to be glossing over the mental health aspect of this. The man was flagged as a threat and was evaluated for mental health issues years ago. He was on police radar, but someone appears to have determined he was not enough of a threat and was walking around freely and was even able to arm himself. Liberals keep wanting to expand their powers over us in response to their failure to even properly use the powers we have already given them. Why was this obviously mentally ill person walking around and obtaining firearms right under the gaze of the authorities?
He’s obviously mentally ill

Is that supposed to have meaning? Of course there were political aims.
 
Replacement theory? What kind of liberal BS is this?
I’m simply going by the definition of “terrorist”. The guy was a mentally ill, racist a-hole.
It's Hannity's big thing now that he picked up from the far-right. It evidently played well enough to that crowd that Fox and the repubs felt that mainstreaming it would be beneficial.
Video of Tucker Carlson repeatedly touting 'replacement theory' goes viral

Google............Fox replacement theory

And behold
 
I told you, I brought up race because that's the only time the obes on the left ever post. If you all spoke out against all gun violence the same, then it wouldn't be an issue for me. It just makes me wonder.
Silent on Monday when the Chicago shooting numbers come out. Clutch the pearls when something tragic like the recent shooting, but skim the article as no big deal when another 50 people shot over the weekend in Chicago.
 
More than 5 million people in the US have diagnosed bipolar disorder, about 1.5 million with schizophrenia, almost 50 million with anxiety disorders.

1 in 5 U.S. adults experience mental illness each year
1 in 20 U.S. adults experience serious mental illness each year
1 in 6 U.S. youth aged 6-17 experience a mental health disorder each year
50% of all lifetime mental illness begins by age 14, and 75% by age 24
Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death among people aged 10-34

What would you recommend doing with these people? Do you want to disallow them all to have firearms? It sounds like it, so get to work recruiting your buddies for that mission.

Better discipline as children and stop excusing bad behavior as mental illness.
 
A lot of "you guys" statements in there. First off, you clearly haven't seen my 2nd amendment posts in here. I was raised in the gun culture and probably have more guns than you do (unless you're one of my close friends that has 200+ guns, KPD investigator said he was better armed than the KPD). But my point is you made a broad statement that liberals never comment on black on anyone shootings and that's just not true. Most of those shootings in Chicago are gang related and the motivations are turf and money, not racial.

And if the press and liberals don't ever talk about those, then how does everyone know about them, it's not like everyone watches Fox.
Feel free to quote any liberal here condescending any shooting that wasn't a white person doing the shooting, without being called out for it. You jumped in to a conversation I was having with someone who admitted they hadn't seen the shooting by the lady and school bus. You all see them, you just pick and choose which ones you pitch a fit about, that's what I'm questioning. To me, they're all wrong, to some, only certain ones. You trying to make mass shootings sound okay because they're "gang related"🤣🤣. Okay, if that makes you feel better about just condemning it when it's bubba from a red state 🤣.
 
So after reading the article there are fewer victims, and none dead, compared to the Buffalo shooting.

Seems like that's a much easier reason there isnt any outrage.
They are treating it as a hate crime. Due to his views on Asians. Seems like a black Supremacist. End results shouldnt make a a difference to the reason for the crime

Unless you think hate crimes are bs like I do.

10 murders >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 3 attempted murders.
 
Unless the there is proof of hate. Then yes they are BS... and yes 10 murders are worse... but why does 1 get a pass for being terrible at murder??
Where has anyone given him a pass? Sounds like they got him and will likely end up in jail after his trial. We could have dozens upon dozens of pages of attacks like Dallas. Not too many like Buffalo, despite what luther thinks.

What’s the root cause ? To fix any problem you have to find the root cause , fix it and the result will change . I haven’t looked at the stats but I’ll bet anything that those are numbers that we havent seen before , I didn’t grow up with those numbers or these problems in society , so how did we get here ?keep in mind when I was going up you could order a firearm from the sears catalog and they would deliver it to your house , we went to a giant flea market and bought rifles , pistols and shot guns , every “ first Monday “ . None of those w toons resulted in what we see today … ITS NOT A GUN PROBLEM.
