Yeah, us evil white men...we've contributed so little to the history of mankind.
When I talk about white males, I am talking about Western Europeans, not Mediterranean Greeks and the Muslims.

Don't you know most everything you listed was not created by the white male and the ones that were were based off of previous work by Muslims who saved a significant amount of intelligence from the Greeks? I don't want to even go into the Chinese.

You definitely failed History my friend.

In what world? Your argument is that the media doesn't report if somebody is a minority but does if they are white. And yet we knew immediately after the TN shooting that he was Middle Eastern.

Now we find out as soon as there are enought witnesses that this guy is white. U mad?

**** you MSM!

https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q...white+male%22+


We all KNOW if it had been a Muslim, or black man, or for that matter almost any "person of color" the MSM would NEVER have made that a focal point about their propaganda, now don't we?


Furthermore, the fact that there were only two fatalities? How many multiple fatality shooting are there every week in Chicago...by a "person of color"?


This just pisses me off.
I wonder if anyone will tell some of those people.... uhm, you do realize "your white" lol

Check out the Knoxville shooter's 'manifesto'. His specific motive is to "kill liberals", and his reasons are nearly word for word what you'll hear DAILY on AM hate radio:

I challenge you to show us anything even REMOTELY equivalent coming from CNN/MSNBC. And when you CAN'T find anything even remotely equivalent- please reconsider your lie.

No kidding! Casual observers wonder: What is wrong with that country when they hate on each other so much? Didn't they learn anything from killing probably 3/4 of a million of each other in the 1860's?

"By combing through newly digitized census data from the 19th century, J. David Hacker, a demographic historian from Binghamton University in New York, has recalculated the death toll and increased it by more than 20 percent — to 750,000."

Now instead of north and south, it's right and left...... Gump's mom had a saying......

Thanks for posting that link. He was one sick puppy but unfortunately his ranting against liberals, democrats and the media aren't much different than we read here on C-D every day. And you are 100% correct about the right wing radio and FOX news (and their fans) needing to take a hard look at the part they play in giving the crazies a playbook for focusing their sick and erroneous reasons to hate.

ETA: I have a relative who talks and posts on Facebook exactly like this shooter wrote in his manifesto. It wouldn't surprise me to see him do the same thing. He blames everyone but himself for his own bad choices.

McCain is a neocon (aka leftist Repub., aka Rockefeller Repub.). Neoconservatism is "neo-" (i.e., 'new-,' 'improved-,' 'lefty anodyne-') for a reason: it is, on record, Trotskyism brought by Bill Kristol's father, Irving Kristol, into the U.S. via Mexico City in the 1950s.

Like with your other post, you prove neocons and the progressive left are indistinguishable from one another.

These theaters are going to have to start providing better security measures. I mean you have all these people in a dark room lined up like ducks, staring at a screen. It's the perfect place for these types go on shooting sprees. Maybe it will take a few lawsuits to motivate the theater chains. But they're going to have to start screening people for weapons like they do at the airport, ball games, night clubs, even some inner-city schools. Can you imagine if they took out the metal detectors at the airports? Would you want to ride on that plane?

They'll be more shootings in the near future. The idea is planted in more minds. The minds of sick men that feel they need to cleanse society of it's immorality by killing young girls at theaters. I guess civil war II isn't happening soon enough for them and they get frustrated.

Just like has been mentioned, leftists/progressives have been waiting years for this so that they can pounce on it in the blame game of entire groups that they depise. Never mind that the guy had been involuntarily committed before.

Yep, one event and they pounce and blame. Yet countless events directly related to radical Islam, for example, and they always deflect. The double standard is amazing.

NO!! This is the thinking that brought us the mess at the airports. Millions upon millions go to the movies and never run into a problem bigger than expensive popcorn. These over reactions don't do anyone any good. Would it be better if someone decided to shoot up a bowling alley?

Bad things will on occasion happen. The answer is not to make life for the rest more complicated. People get killed everyday by simply crossing the street. Maybe we should have an armed soldier on every corner to stop traffic?
