Current Affairs The " another shooting in America " thread

[tsubaki]

100% there will be more complaints from the right about the cop giving the news conference speaking in Spanish (briefly) than the availability of firearms.

A manifesto has appeared on the usual sites, which claims to be that of the shooter. If its genuine, Trump is going to find it very difficult given how many phrases of his it incorporates.

He’s the Teflon President - nothing seems to stick!

I think this might - there isn't just the manifesto (if its genuine), there is the fact that this bloke was captured and will be put on trial soon - and by soon, I mean probably during the 2020 Presidential campaign.

His supporters will think it is conspiracy by a left wing democrat, after sandy hook it’s clear no mass shooting will ever matter

It’s not even news anymore .... let the thick yokel yank bastards shoot each other until there’s none of their ilk left

Oh look, a MAGA nutjob goes on a gun crusade.

I'm shocked I tell you. Shocked.

If ONLY this happened in a state where the people are fanatical about gun ownership, this OBVIOUSLY wouldn't happen in a place like that!

I'm genuinely convinced that Trump can get away with anything at this stage

His supporters are just so blinkered that they'll never concede anything

It will get spun that "only 40 people shot, would have been much worse if the good guys didn't have guns".

WHY DIDN’T OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST STOP THE BULLETS .... IT MUST HAVE BEEN GOD’S WILL

Does that idiot know about the shooting?,he's tweeting about some UFC fight.

 

[The binman chronicles]

I used to get upset, now just angry that a 'first' world country can have such a massive issue like this. A place where cops who are meant to protect might end up shooting you because the risk that you might be armed and dangerous is too great to take and where guns are handed out like confetti. It only takes one nutter to kill tens of innocent lives. It could be someone who lost their job, their partner had an affair, someone pulled their pants down at school and in a state of rage with no time to cool off reach for their legal semi automatic firearm.

They should pick a state like Texas and say if you want to live like the wild west then that is where you go, if not move out and the rest is gun free.

 

[Del-boy]

They will never give up their guns, and thus, this will never stop happening.
