Well I am sure the Hillary camp will call for me gun control and tolerance for the Muslim religion as the past attacks over U.S. and Europe are the past 8 years are all just lone wolves who had access to guns and were not right in the head.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

Was wondering how the Neanderthal lobby would spin this. Yes, you had a Sand Nigger as the shooter . . . But he killed a bunch of faggots who deserved death for their fudge packing. Mixed emotions for Team Trump.
No, the spin is you have a political party(D) where one group of constituents (Muslims) wants to kill another group of constituents (gays), but the targeted constituent group just has to take it because the leader of their party sympathizes with the other group.

Banning guns would likely just as unsuccessful at preventing this type of attack as trying to ban gay nightclubs would be.

Yes, this is indeed a conundrum for the sophisticated identity politics algorithms of the Dem's. Who is the greater victim? Muslims or gays? That must be toughie for them.

If the violence routinely committed by Muslims has nothing to do with Islam, then the violence done to gays must have nothing to do with their orientation, right?

Well, when in doubt, just remember to default to the one-size-fits all explanation for everything: it's all Bush's fault.

I did Wiki searches of mass shootings, mass stabbings, mass bludgeonings and mass strangulations.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Mass_stabbings

There have been two mass stabbings so far in the USA in 2016 - one was a robbery gone wrong, with 5 killed. One was a terrorist attack and the lone fatality was the attacker.

There are no recorded mass strangulations or mass bludgeonings to date this year.

There have been 138 mass shootings in the USA this year, with 200 killed.

So if we just ban drugs, and vow to confiscate all drugs, then all the drugs will just disappear, since everybody who traffics in drugs will all dutifully turn their drugs in, and then all the drug problems will be solved, right?

What?

Just kidding - deleted the OD reference. The point is: it's easy to kill with a gun, compared to killing with a knife, a bat or bare fists. It's hard to shoot someone when you don't have easy access to a gun. We have 340 million guns in a country of 310 million people.

So if the liberals' ultimate wet dream is realized, and the government decides to ban all guns, and orders mass confiscations of all guns, like they did in the UK and Australia, what percentage of those 340 million guns do you really think will be obediently turned in? Probably not a very high percentage. And what percentage of those 340 million guns will remain in the hands of people who are crazy and/or intent on mass murder? Probably a very high percentage. That is indisputable.

And if so what was the point in invalidating the second amendment and depriving law abiding citizens of gun ownership in the first place? It just made a bunch of liberals feel good about themselves as they soil themselves after yet another mass murder in a post-gun confiscation America.

Mass bludgeonings? Mass strangulations??

"There have been 138 mass shootings in the USA this year, with 200 killed."

Well, if 50 were killed in Orlando, that leaves 137 mass shootings with 150 people killed. That's basically one death per mass shooting. I'm sure I remember several where far more than one person was killed, which would leave the rest with well below one person (on average) killed per mass shooting event. Somehow this isn't adding up...

What up Meatload?

Mass shootings are routine in Chicago (BTW, home of some of the nation's strictest gun laws, but I digress). Like last Memorial Day weekend:

http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/31/us/chicag ... -violence/

It will be the same on Fourth of July, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Tree Day, etc. But nobody cares. Black Lives don't Matter in Chi-Town.

You can own a rifle or shotgun in the UK with a license. They have about 50 or so homicide deaths from guns a year...1 a week. I think we had two while I typed this out.

I don't do the gun debate thing because it's a pointless exercise for the most part. Even the obvious stuff like restricting no-fly-list people from purchasing guns isn't doable. Just clean up the carnage and wait for the next one.

Luckily, this nutjob was stopped from being the next one.

He had anti PAH and pro Bern posts on his Facebook page.

From AP: "The page's most recent public post, from June 3, shows a photo comparing Adolf Hitler to Hillary Clinton. An anti-Clinton, pro-Bernie Sanders photo was posted in February."

Fuckin' radical left wing nutjobs.
