Why are Dems attacking our great President for nothing while kids are being gunned down in their own Dem-ruled cities? Why are they going after legal gun owners while reducing sentences and enforcement for violent crimes? Serious questions Dems. Why are you passing laws to let killers of kids like this basically go free while accusing Trump of “treason” for not staring a war with Russia?

I've seen some stretches in my life, but this one takes the cake.

Post of the day. The media cherrypicks stories to keep people fighting.

The whole carp-fest of news inciting violence??? Zuckerberg needs to criticize the MSM. They do it all the live-long day, race baiting, gender baiting, class baiting ... all day long, inciting violence. If anyone needs to be accused of inciting violence it's the MSM. It's their ENTIRE PLATFORM.

They love to layer on more useless laws to the already law abiding. That way they can think they "did something" even if something is nothing.

I just have to shake my head at the sad irony of any Obama or Hillary supporter that says they care about children.
Its like saying you're a vegan as you chow down on a cheeseburger and bucket of KFC.

I know it drives me crazy too.



The bleeding hearts are shedding tears for the poor "migrants" that are flooding the border seeking asylum from abusive men, gangs, cartels and economic problems yet is there a single tear for the poor people that populate the inner cities?



Doesn't a mothers son face the same pressures to join street gangs and turn to a life of crime?

Doesn't a mothers daughter face pressures from gang members to try drugs in exchange for sex and a chance to hang out with the "cool kids" ?

Doesn't a mother face economic issues otherwise she would move out of that dangerous neighborhood where her family faces a daily threat of robbery, mugging, harassment by gangs and addicts and a chance of catching a stray bullet?



Where can these people seek their asylum?



What is really sad is that this 10 year old girls death will not be used as a rallying cry to get tough on criminals but her name will be added to the list of statistics of gun violence and serve as an example that guns should be banned from the law abiding.

Losing the 10-year old child is sickening, and I'm sure her mother has to suffer the agony of losing her child for the rest of her life.

And that is heading for a monumental, epic fail.

But it’s California, they won’t learn from results.

I agree. This stuff is getting out of hand, on both sides. I thought this would be about the actual shooting, but it turned out to be about gun control and some people wanting to abolish prisons. I guess that’s why it was posted in POC instead of Current Events? At any rate, I don’t believe people are going to want this to go unpunished.

Poor girl. The issue with gun violence affects all political parties, obviously.

How so? Give specific logical factual links of this supposed claim that the news incites violence.
