After the seeing the Dayton mayor’s flippant response I thought to myself “I bet most of the victims were black”. It may have been a crime of opportunity & that’s just who happened to mostly be out there at that time, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was racially motivated.

Dayton police called out the names of 9 dead and their race with 6 of 9 dead being black, 3 whites killed.   So maybe racism.

I think it's extremely telling that the only twitter response Cruz has is a few retweets asking for donations of blood, and that he seems to be trying to avoid talking about the issue.  He's not even up for reelection for four years.

He should just put a bucket under his hands and start collecting the blood dripping off them. He's letting it go to waste just running off onto the floor.

It's too hard to solve.

He goes on in another tweet to talk about mental health, blah, blah, blah.

Not sure what Cornyn and his team are trying to achieve with this tweet.  I don’t even understand the meaning of the first sentence much less agree or disagree with it.

I believe the white supremacists see the writing on the wall that says they will have to share power and control of the country with women and people of color.  They feel they are at a tipping point.  So instead of letting it happen gracefully, they feel some need to go down fighting, pry it from my cold dead hands kind of mentality. 

They had no problem with Barrack Hussein Obama II, a Kenyan Muslim Atheist Socialist Marxist Communist Community Organizer from Chicago, Indonesia, being in the WH for 8 years.

But one thing did change in 2016.

The thing is, they don’t realize they’re doing it. It’s a systematic built in feature of the forum and their community.  It’s like how racists don’t think they’re racist.  

 

TexAgs staff know exactly what they are doing when they allow the Qanon shit, the racist shit, etc. go on there, and they are just fine with it.   Billy Luigi is completely fine with all of that, otherwise he and the others would have cleaned it up before now.

We are also seeing more younger people that have grown up with the online hate that comes at them 24/7.  If you truly believed some of this online hate and junk, add in some leaders passively endorsing some lesser hate, I can understand why you might take up arms.   In their mind, they’re patriots trying to return America to some level of past greatness which actually never existed

no shit, deleting makes him even more guilty. Every single Trump tweet, even pre 2016, has been captured.  lol at the dumbassery. 

 

The dumbassery is in thinking it matters. Trump lies about everything, nobody calls him out, and the GOP and right wing media brainwash the rubes.

I never tweeted that, show me on my Twitter where I said that. The screen cap is fake news, you don't really believe that do you?

I know Texaggy is something else, but I have somehow been absolutely floored multiple times since these recent shootings with their board. 

 

My take is that the Left Wing Democrats are at fault by refusing to close the Immigration Law loopholes allowing this illegal alien invasion. If one of these Democrat Loons gets elected POTUS, the border floodgates will become wide open and then, God Help Us !

Part of it is that posters that recognize the hatred should also speak up.  Shaggy had many more extreme posters that fed off each other to post some questionable content. If you spoke up against them, they would group troll that person.  Luckily that behavior wasn’t as tolerated here and many of those posters are gone or switched over to non-political threads only.

Guns don’t kill people — violent, hateful bigots that are validated and motivated by our hateful shitstain of a President kill people.  Whatever your motivations may be, if you support this President, you are supporting the elevation of white nationalism, it’s validation as an ideology and further atrocities like what just happened in El Paso.  There are no grounds on which a person of any moral or ethical standards could support anything related to Trump when this is the ancillary cost.

And I know if you still support Trump after this, you couldn’t care less about my opinion of you. Thus, I can only hope you are dark enough to be mistakingly included in a future culling.

Personally I don’t hold out any hope that we will ever pass federal gun control laws with the gop in charge. 

  • They did nothing when elementary school kids were murdered by someone with known mental health issues
  • They did nothing when _____ (list any of the dozens of large scales shootings, or 100s of “lesser” mass murders)
  • they did nothing when their own were shot at during their baseball practice 

I don’t see how this weekend changes anything.  The same script will be followed: lay low, promise to address the problem once the emotions have calmed down, and then never talk about it.  Of course the nra wins in this situations because semi automatic sales will skyrocket this week.

Kasich talking a strong game with Tapper, but also somehow managing to "both sides" this.  I usually like him, but that's some bullshit.

Kasich is awful.  I used to like him a lot but his both sides false equivalency shit got old real quick.  He’s another Susan Collins Republican trying to always have it both ways.  Kasich is worse than Jeff Flake.

I know you’re right.  I was just giving them the benefit of the doubt because I’m not as familiar with the TexAgs owners as I am with the TD owners, who, by the way, are New Orleans frat boy racist pieces of shit.

Well, the guy was 17 before Trump was nominated.  We're all assholes when we're teenagers.  Just so happens Trump comes on the scene, starts inciting violence, all at the same time it becomes legal for this "young man" to turn 18 and start buying gas-operated assault rifles. 

Yeah White Supremacy was also around before 1933, but then---shit happens.

8chan and 4chan need to both be shut down. And Gab.

Shut them down for stuff that's already illegal, but beyond that, nope.  Imagine if Trump could have websites shut down.

I remember when Slashdot melted down when Howard Dean was talking about how we should have an ID system to login to our computers and post online, so that people couldn't post anonymous stuff.  Those were fun days.

They should, but they value their stupid little badges/flair too much.  

Plus it's TexAgs.  There's a reason why they love Qanon and why Qanon and 8Chan/4Chan are linked - they are Qanon's target audience.

Have you received your talking points yet? It’s been 24 hours. 

Well see, it’s Sunday. Rush and the Fox News regulars aren’t  on until tomorrow and the president is playing golf.  So they are struggling to try and recycle some old talking points today.  They’ll be told what to think again tomorrow, so you’ll see all the coordinated messaging on point then.

Video Games, Thoughts and Prayers.  That's the best they could come up with on short notice.

Don’t you have some lawbreaking to enforce?  Why are you sitting around posting?  Tell ya what, Gomer, why don’t you run down to the Fiesta Mart and make a few citizens arrests?  Or maybe one of Trumps golf resorts/grift lodges?

I don’t think you thought that through.  So then only well off people could afford them?

dirt poor people can't afford certain types of guns right?  It's like cigarettes tax, only the wealthy can smoke.  Besides, guns are quite expensive already, why not raise the price point?
