I wasn't surprised to find that out as it seems to take a LOT for someone to actually receive an actual "dishonorable." However he also had a domestic violence conviction which should have made the record and flagged him. There was a pretty extensive laundry list on his domestic sheet. More than enough to have him on the no buy list. Any domestic conviction, even f there's no physical abuse involved kills a persons gun rights.


That this creep didn't pop up on the BC radar is a scewup of Biblical portent. Obviously.

More guns make us less safe from mass shootings. It's, as they say, as plain as an ass on a goat.

Ouch- facts pls?
I seriously doubt Mr. Texas church shootings was a democrat.

Or that many of the victims were either- why are we bringing party denomination into this anyway?-

(I go to make dinner and now I see that a flame war has erupted- o well I am going to enjoy a nice walk in the park with my dogs, y'all can keep entertaining yourselves while our country goes to pot)...

Or church, or a concert, or a mall, or school, or movie theater, or dance club-in a decent non-ghetto area.
Face it- America is a warped culture, and will bring itself down, without an enemy firing a single shot. Americans are their own enemies.

The White Supremacist who murdered the Black people in the church was a Democrat?

And they aren’t going anywhere...,despite your wishes.

Now that we’ve established that point, answer the damn question in the OP!

The politicians seem to have no motivation to stop inner city violent crime.
Sutherland Springs, Tx isn’t in the inner city.

Why didn’t the fact that we’re the most heavily armed nation in the world, stop that mass shooting from happening?
