Yeah, the appeals alone could take 5-10 years.

Amazing how these white male shooters always get arrested without a scratch on them.

Your hunch will most likely be wrong...

Average on death row is 10+ years... a lot of them are on death row for 25.

Puleeze.

The only reason people haven’t trotted it out this time and/or are trying to pretend that they believed it would have always been a bad idea is because this happened in TX.
We sure heard a different tune last week when it was CA.
And would have heard that same tune if this had happened in NY or some other “liberal” state.

Interesting how common sense rears its head when faced with reality.

"In 2018, domestic extremists killed at least 50 people in the U.S., a sharp increase from the 37 extremist-related murders documented in 2017, though still lower than the totals for 2015 (70) and 2016 (72)."

I don’t care if he was registered as Obama’s son. That manifesto speaks for itself.

Ignored or manipulated by both sides?

It's a win win for the 2 headed beast.

One head says "See that, we all need guns so that we can be safe."

The other Head says " See that we need to ban gun so that we can be safe."

Our elected reps love a good tragedy. It took Rahm Emanuel to fess it up.

The solution? Start by Registering all fire arms and transactions. No more private sales. No more private gifting. Shrinks must report questionable patients. Background checks to include the Shrink data base.

You left out part of my post. Why?

People who otherwise would keep these feelings to themselves now think they have license to maim and kill at will because their hero, Trump, says it's okay. At least that's how these unstable people see it.

Also, where were all of those good guys with guns to stop the shooter? This was TX.
Did this one make you sick and tired?
