I had this guy figured all wrong. I thought it was going to be a gay/sex change/cross dressing military rage thing. C'mon the guy's name sounds fake like maybe a Chippendale's dancer's stage name.

I still want to know what he was doing in Thailand for a month.

My assumption is that since he was former military, his gun rights were held sacred and no one questioned them. Clearly, he shouldn't have been allowed to own guns.

I don't even understand the point you're trying to make.
You don't understand the OP's point because it was incredibly stupid. As you said, this is yet again another case of a severely mentally ill person who had access to guns going on a shoot em up.

A. who cares? The guy is dead & he killed 12 other people. What does him going to Thailand have to do with anything? And Aaron Alexis is a perfectly normal name. I think you need to check out some actual strippers & their names if you think Aaron Alexis is a stripper name.

It's a tightrope these folks aren't willing to walk lest they be accused of racism.

Diane Feinstein pretty much made your lame argument moot. And what is verocious?

Sen. Feinstein (D-CA) calls for even more gun laws after DC Naval Yard shooting

So, who's the one speaking in a vacuum? Maybe it's the shows YOU watch (Limbaugh, Hannity, etc.) that are being quiet on the issue of gun control, because it is all over the liberal media.
The tempo of MSNBC represents the tempo of liberal outrage? The media is but one component. Have you already forgotten the national gun control discussion of just a few months ago, of which Senate Democrats handed Barack Obama his ass? Of which led to two recent recalls of elected state officials in Colorado?

You are mistaken if you think that the national discussion of today is anything closely resembling that of the immediate aftermath of Newtown, Aurora, etc. Not even close. The President himself won't even wade into these waters with any substance. Wanna take a bet???

Dude, you've been pawned. Your entire thread is a joke, just give it up. Every single post on here has proven your wrong. I actually almost feel bad for you.

I heard they he was working in a Thai restaurant for a few years and had learned the language. He was also practicing Buddhism. Is there something strange about traveling to Thailand?
