They had the White House and the Senate as well as Congress for the first two years and did nothing.


This is nothing but political fodder for the Leftists.
Jesus...

What are the Democrats supposed to do about that?

I'll leave it at that.

I could go on a rant about how utterly stupid you have to be to think that this is a only being used as cannon fodder by the "leftists" but I won't for. For now. I will childishly add in, it wasn't the Democrats who pointed out Mateen as a Democrat. And those same people failed to explain why that's so important, but why Trump receiving an endorsement for everyone's favorite dictator (not Vladimir Putin), Kim Jung Un. But whatever, only the 'leftists' are stupid because I'm not one, right?

It's hard to believe they don't know the killer was a registered Democrat and did it for ISIS.
Just shows that pure hatred sill exists in this country.

You don't have to agree with that point, but don't start throwing around 'He was a registered Democrat' as if that has anything to do with the overarching issue this little sign is trying to make.
And after Boston, they wanted to ban pressure cookers. What do you want to be killed with a gun or a bomb? Hard to believe it was the guns fault. Anything to deflect from saying radical Islamist.

But they aren't really blaming the gun. They're blaming the policy that made it possible for this terrorist to get a gun.

WHAT POLICY?

The 2 separate investigations by the FBI that deemed he was "no threat".

What are the Republicans supposed to do about that?

How is that the Republicans' fault?

Are you kidding? Just because they're gay doesn't mean they're smart.


We are living in herds now. Instead of having individualism and personal freedom we have sides.

How did the terrorists in Paris get FULLY AUTOMATIC guns when France has the strictest gun laws on the planet?

How do Chicago gangs get their hands on weapons when they have the strictest guns laws of any city in the country?

Why is it so hard to understand that anyone with evil plans care nothing about laws. Tying the hands of law abiding citizens will solve nothing, and make it even worse.

FBI deemed it "islamaphobia" or bigotry against a muslim. Would like to know exactly who determined that. I'm thinking that avenue is closed. We'll never know.
