Shootings! Shootings! Shootings! Today's and tomorrow's shootings! — Page 38

You PalJoeyBaby are the only one referencing and exploiting the Holocaust to support your view and THAT is highly offensive.

Just Stop

Madbrian's response is what one expects from many here if they disagree with you. They want your voice silenced. They do that in dictatorships - they silence those who disagree with them. So much for free speech which, sad to say, no longer exists in this country.

Mr Matt, i agree with you, there is no place for machine gun guns.

How is that agreeing with me? And do you only support the loudest gun clutching protestors? Do you believe the loudest far right rednecks represent the majority thought on the pro-gun owning debate. If so, you've got WAY more to worry about than the myth of Lib'rals a-takin' yer guns.

So much for free speech which, sad to say, no longer exists in this country.

Then how were you able to post that? 99% of your posts are doom and gloom and baseless assumptions of misery. What makes you think that's not free speech? Who do you think wants to see it all the time???

The family of the kid whose father accidentally killed him at the gun range has set up an on line account to help pay for the funeral and other matters.

I saw the video tapes of both events. Downright disgraceful! Castile did what he thought was the right thing and informed the cop he was licensed and had a gun on him. Four-five bullets, really?

I am beyond disgusted. I AM OUTRAGED!

For every person who bemoans technological advances and people's "obsessions" with their phones, these would continue to be isolated regional stories that would never make the national news if it weren't for the easy access most of us have to phone cameras. This is nothing new, we're just talking about it as a nation...finally. So, we'll wring our hands, just like we do after mass shootings like in Orlando. We'll sign petitions and demand some quick solutions from our elected leaders. Perhaps some symbolic legislation will actually be passed. Perhaps. And then we'll all move on until the next black person is gunned down by police. At the end of the day, this isn't just a police issue. This is a systemic, institutional issue and it can't be solved by DOJ investigations or largely ineffectual legislation.



So, as much as "social media activism" is bemoaned as meaningless, ego-serving, social-justice-warrior'ing, I do think these conversations - in the media, online and, (hopefully) with friends and family will be part of the solution. You don't raise consciousness and address bias overnight.

And now Dallas.

There is just no justification for any of it. Except, there is too much fear which is justified. There is too much hate which is justified. There is a lack of fairness, a lack of education, and a lack of hope.

So it is not justified; it is just perfectly reasonable.

Why have no BLM leaders come out to express their condolences and/or support for the five police officers so viciously assassinated last night? Radio silence. Hmm... Interesting.

I'm not surprised by it cause they are trash but the daily news and NY post covers are absolutely disgusting. They should have some sort of respect.

The people who are saying "why have no BLM leaders expressed condolence" (when BLM leaders already have) are the same people who say "why do no Muslims object to terrorism" when millions and millions of Muslims do.

As Shakespeare said, "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your narrow-minded bigoted mindset."

Why? Because he's black?
