    Sandy Hook, Roseburg, the Joker-movie-theater case - anything linking these three cases? How about the home/family life? How about the mental health state of all three young men? What activities - if any - did these young men have in common?

    no he isn't

    yes, it finally got here

    the broken home article finally came across your desk

    an even more absurd angle to argue

    is that how every other frist world country that has similar or worse divorce rates practically got rid of mass shootings? by not getting divorced?

    but go ahead and get to your point if you want cause your leading "i'm curious...." is really boring and time consuming

    Yup, his segment was great.
    What do they actually do to help fix mental health?
    They sure as hell don't want to ask their buddies to help pay for it. Just a deflection for them.

    right because you consider early-term fetuses humans and many others do not.
    yet when a grown child is starving, or lacking quality education, or not able to afford clothing, you couldn't care less.
    see what I did there? we can all play the sturg game of hyperbole and bull****.

    Just seems really silly, misleading, ignorant, and political to try to deflect blame of a mass shooting to an organization that had nothing to do with it.

    By the way, if the federal government is funding the NRA, it should be defunded yesterday, same as PP

    i really don't think yall understand Trevors point (even though yall say yall do)

    he isn't comparing them or distracting them

    he is taking their words saying all lives are worth saving and that we should do whatever it takes etc on one issue

    and then somehow there is this other issue that people are dying over and they fall silent all of a sudden

    it's a weird road imo to try to navigate but Trevor does a good job of showing that they really don't care their line that "all life is worth doing whatever it takes to save"

    We get it. It's hypocritical, a lazy assumption and just plain illogical. It's just a pointless smart ass comment that adds nothing to the debate, except give goldfly a meme to post on the internet to help his ecred a bit with the board libs.
    thank you weso1!

    I don't disagree. Really very few people have a desire to do anything about this, but very few people are actually calling to change it. Instead we're arguing that maybe a guy should or shouldn't be able to buy a slightly less lethal gun and a couple less bullets. I mean it's so stupid when you really think about it. Should be pushing mental health, prison reform and getting guns away from inner city criminals. Instead we're arguing over absolutely pointless tweaks to current gun laws for mostly law abiding citizens.
    thank you weso1!

    adds nothing? it shows that the other side in the debate isn't genuine in their words and shouldn't be taken serious

    Yeah... same thing when the left are "pro-choice" when it comes to abortions, but anti choice when it comes to businesses and personal property and whether or not we're allowed to buy a soda or not.

    The fact that you couldn't infer the question really just makes you either a troll or mentally retarded. My guess is a mix of both.

    Here, I'll add a question mark to the end of it so it makes nice and simple for you.

    Which organization is directly responsible for more deaths of living beings in this country, the NRA or PP?

    Over the course of 3-4 years I have yet to see anyone advocate proposals to deal with mental health, prison reform blah blah blah.
    Or any of the empty alternatives ( along with prayer) thrown out everytime the conversation of regulating weapons comes up.

    Ok Wes, what do we do about mental health?

    City criminals ?
    what that has to do with mass shooting not really sure . Plus with limits/regulation/ restrictions on the manufacture of weapons -- wouldn't it hinder a "thug" access??
    Is "city criminals" a wink and nod for the "n" word ?

    Prison reform ?
    What does prison reform have to do with mass shootings?
    Why not include VW doctoring emission reports ?

    that seems like a legit comparison to use when talking about death
