Gun Legislation, Crime, and Events

[Mr.TaterSalad]

So the alleged shooter is not transgendered? Not a lesbian? Not a person of color? Not Muslim? Not an immigrant? You mean to tell me that Donald Trump, Nancy Mace, and a bunch of Republicans irresponsibly rushed to make a judgement on this?

From zero presence on the ground to suspect in custody in under 48 hours is a job well done.

The guy turned himself in.

I believe your words earlier were couldn't care less. Never thought about him before and don't plan to now. I would say indifferent not happy.

Has any democrat claimed it was a gay lover of Charlie that shot him? I seem to recall GOP leaders saying that when Paul Pelosi was attacked.

Didn't Tyler Robinson used to pitch for the Tigers?

I'm not one to question the mods here, but a guy says he is buying up ammo because things are going to get spicy and is still posting? After a personal attack my way a few weeks ago, I really did feel threatened by that post.

Isn't this story sad enough without bringing baseball into it?

Not sure what your neighbor being African American has to do with anything. It doesn't give the impression you think it does.

Am I remembering correctly, did Charlie Kirk call for the Epstein files to be released a few months ago?

Wish there was a way for me to give two thanks on this.

Anyways, gonna be interesting if this guy skates because Trump or Patel may have accidentally violated protocol and subsequently violated Bill of Rights in the process of their overly public showboating of this process.

No fear of that. This SCOTUS would happily reverse even Miranda to make sure the death of one of their stars is avenged.

Maybe some patriot should bail out Kirk's killer?

Can you point out any examples of this? There’s a clear difference in being happy someone is dead, and thinking someone doesn’t need to be lionized for their decisive, harmful rhetoric.

Of course they did.... for as much as they complain about "identity politics", nobody is more obsessed with it than they are.

[Motown Bombers]

The obsession the right has with people’s genitals is weird.

Did anyone see the shocking quote in this story?

Quote

Trump repeatedly warned throughout the interview that his information was preliminary, saying he is "always subject to be corrected."

That might be the only honest self assessment he has ever made.

Read the last 4-5 pages of this thread.

A Harris FBI would have this dude in custody already.   Some serious doge dip****tery and asshattery on full display from this crop of onion pouches 

I don’t think it’s as much dip****tery and asshattery as it is a bid for narrative control about the shooter.

But seriously, that's exactly why what a guy like Kirk preaches is so terrible. The trans person I happen to know the best does more selfless good work out in the larger community than Charlie Kirk probably ever dreamed of doing in his life. He has(had) no right or standing at all to impugn that person's existence or their value.

 

The one trans person I know best is a selfish jerk who’s unpleasant to be around. But even so, so what? She has a right to be as unpleasant as anyone else does. Everyone should be allowed to actualize their true selves on their own terms.

So true.  

This reminds me of a recent conversation that I was having with an African American buddy who was discussing something with my Mexican accountant, which is interesting as you don’t think of them as being accountants, which is even funnier as my black friend is a pilot and you really don’t think of them as that.  Rapper or athlete sure, but definitely not pilot.  I joke with him all the time that if I didn’t know him,  there’s no way I’d ever fly on his plane.  We all get a big chuckle at that one.   As I was saying…shoot,  I forgot my point.
