At Petrozza: Without even clicking, I've been on that train forever. It's a media feeding frenzy, and then you never hear about it again. Period. Ever. As in never ever. I'll give you an example. Remember that teenager who carried around her dead decomposing infant in a shopping bag in Victoria's Secret in NYC? She got busted on suspicion of shoplifting - and the cops found a dead baby. "I didn't know I was pregnant because I had a birth control implant." So you carry around your dead baby in a bag and go shopping? Anyway, evidence was pretty clear that the baby was born alive. She was up on 2nd degree murder, not even a peep after that. She's in jail somewhere, but good luck finding out what she was convicted of and what her sentence was. I do recall people saying that if she was a white girl the charges would've been dropped. Just stop it. White impoverished trailer trash probably commit the worst fckn abominations ever known.
Brown people kill each other every day in Chicago and the media doesn't say boo. So much for that bullshit narrative.
There's also people out there who don't believe in using the actual definition of the word terrorism and instead live in a warped reality where they use their emotions to decide what the word means.
Not really. People don't want to admit white people commit terrorism because they might have to take meaningful action. But if it's Middle Eastern people, then they can just point fingers at the Middle East and continue on as normal.
But in the case of Las Vegas there is actually no proof at all that it was terrorism, just because a lot of people dies does not make it terrorism.
Meaningful action? Unless you can prove that there is an ideology that paddock adhered to that is likely to have more followers .... what do you take action against?
Why would you think only people with radical ideologies are the ones we can take action against? Why can't we pass reasonable gun laws in this country like mandatory waiting periods or actually holding gun shops responsible for allowing straw purchases or a real system for registering purchases so we can track down murderers and such? Why are law-abiding citizens so worried about these things if they aren't planning on committing murders?
Why don’t we start by enforcing stiffer penalties for illegal gun possession before taking action against legal gun owners?20 years minimum for illegal possession of a firearm. As for registering and waiting periods, mist states have that already for handguns, I assume somewhere is a bunch of records of long guns purchased since they collect that data when you buy the gun. Not sure what straw sales you are referring to but ok,feel free to hammer the gun dealer if he is not doing things accordingly, get the guy he sold the gun to too.
I have no problem with reasonable gun laws. But guns are not as much of a problem as intent is. Anyone with an imagination and motive can cause just as much if not more damage without a gun. I'm not sure why the left is so obsessed with objects at the same time blatantly ignoring ideology
The government can’t really regulate based on ideology. Which is a damned good thing. Some of us would be posting from a gulag somewhere
