Are you suggesting jerry brown and prince cuomo are Conservative/Republican?
I'm suggesting that liberals aren't uniform in their beliefs about guns. There is no "liberal logic". That arguing that all liberals believe the same things is specious.

Yet, the over riding DNC position, and the position of most vocal Democrats is rabidly anti legal gun ownership.

President Trump, cut-off any federal monies to any sanctuary cities. You can do this .
As I understand it so far, Schumer did support the Diversity law in 1990, and it was signed into law by Bush, so you can blame him, too. But it was later revoked and Schumer supported the revocation. It takes a house and senate to pass a law, and to revoke it, so you can blame a lot of people if you want, or credit them with getting rid of it. But instead, you just got so political, that you couldn't even look at the big picture and make a reasonable and accurate assessment.

Ha! Didn't know that.

Obvious my post was dripping with satire, but there's truth at the core. People get fixated on the outer shell - religion, race, etc. But what every man whose planned, plotted and executed the mass killing of innocent people has in common is a deep-seeded fracture of the mind.

You can take 100 people and expose them to 1,000 hours of jihadi rhetoric and maybe one will actualize the words. Not because of the rhetoric itself, but because the person himself was already in a weakened mental state.

Thousands of people are born and in die in poverty and never take up arms against anyone. So poverty isn't the root cause. It exacerbates an underlying mental problem.

What irks me however, is when an obvious "outer shell" can't be identified, the blame is placed squarely on the individual - as it should be.

But when skin color is detected or religion or socio-economic status, then the problem is a pandemic subjecting every member of said group to vilification.

In a nutshell - rich, white killer - looney tunes, can't do anything about it. Muslim terrorist - kill all the muslims! Black crime - liberal policy or racial inferiority are clearly the issue.

Pshaw. I know very few Democrats that are opposed to legal gun ownership. You're spouting propaganda at the expense of truth. Gun control advocates run a gamut of positions, from gun registration, to screening gun purchases, to outlawing certain types of weaponry. The simple fact of the matter is that this country chose an armed citizenry centuries ago. Trying to take away guns is simply unreasonable. The argument isn't about disarming our nation, it's about what is reasonable and justified gun restrictions and what is unreasonable and unjustified.

And why are you ok to politicize this and blame it on Dems, but you didn't give a crap about the rich, white guy that killed 59 and injured hundreds?
Bingo! When it is a white guy doing the killing, there are infinite excuses like "mental illness" and that "guns don't kill people ..."

Who cares who is more popular in the liberal cesspool of NY? How about America? Oh yeah, it's not even close.
