Ask yourself why the whole country of England has less murders than the city of Chicago (where guns are easy to get on the black and out of state)? You can't blame it on culture, both countries watch the same movies and video games.

As a liberal never-Bernie Dem, I'm not surprised that one of his white male supporters went around the bend.

That said, I don't blame Bernie or his politics or his regular supporters. Screwed-up wackos will always find a forum to vent their rage. When that happens, we can only hope they don't carry.

"The Play" is a classic western morality tale about why assassination is NOT a good idea, it always only leads to more upheaval and treachery and grief.

But then neither you nor the shooter ever actually watched and comprehended Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, so you get a pass.

What you are missing is those Cites Like Chicago has broken all record in Crimes and these crimes are not from Law abiding Citizens. The cause and effect is the strict Fire Arms Laws that the city has has made. California has the same issue with dealing with the dirty Secret on how the gangs create the violence.


If one would notice most crimes are committed by Criminals who have not regard for any law. It just a matter of the time before the Fascist dressed in black will bring firearms to their next Hate Meet.


Here in Arizona, we like to think a well armed society is a more respectful one.!

WE should not Insult Shakespeare work with some crazy director twisting such a classic work. For the record It was mandatory reading and as a student we had a filed trip to see the play in Downtown St. Louis. (Forest Park)

And this play was done with Obama in the role of Trump back in the day and didn't receive half as much fuss -- I wonder why?

Shakespeare's Julius Caesar has been performed with the title character being transposed to JFK/LBJ, Castro, various African dictators, and probably to every other major 19th and 20th century political leader.

But it didn't become an issue until the Trump snowflakes went all

Who was that Senator from Chicago who presided over the huge jump in Killings there?

Well, you Conservatives have claimed for years that liberals were soft. You've characterized our whole group as a bunch of stereotypical Birkenstock wearing hippies that will fold like a sheet if challenged. You've been pushing that narrative for 50 years. You've said that liberal women were shrill feminists, and liberal men were effeminate pushovers.

But now, you Conservatives are realizing that you were far off the mark, and you definitely don't like it.

Meh, the "Arizona tough guy with a gun" thing is overblown. Most folks here won't shoot a damn thing.
