This is all about repressed feelings. Simply come out of the closet and stop being so angry

Where are they?

No where that helps kids. They don't go to school board meetings, protest drag shows targeting kids.

They don't say anything. And so the straight people are left to defend their kids by themselves. Which means that they are bigoted racist homophobes.

The BEST thing these gay people could do? Go to a school board meeting. SHOW that they are not happy with the agenda.

Yes, the "bans" that never banned a dang thing. There is a ban in CA right now and any legal person can buy whatever they want.

Bans have always been symbolic but the gutter level information types believe bans were in place and worked.

Anybody surprised? Intolerance breeds intolerance.

That's a stretch all across. Guy was a mayor of a very small town, population not much. The shooter threatened to kill his own mother who wanted him treated for PTSD.

I love it when people have such a poor command of the English language that they took an obviously rhetorical number seriously. When I'm using empirical data to prove a point, you'll know it. Of course, when one has no valid counterpoint, some people resort to being pedantic, speaking of failing miserably.

Ok so let say parents are responsible for the behavior of their children. By your definition you accept that Hunter Biden the Drug, perverted sex addict who is very likely a Pedo was made so by his Father the President of the United States. And take into consideration that Joe's own daughter feared taking showers because daddy would sneak into the shower with her.......


As you say PERVERSION breeds PERVERSION

What did this kid have PTSD from?

His mother certainly was trying to get him help, and by "help", I mean making sure he wasn't prosecuted for felonies. Make sure he was free to roam about the cabin.

And Aldrich's grandpa was also State Assemblyman, under the Republican Party, and made several extremely insulting remarks about Jan. 6

The mainstream media is reporting that the motive for the shootings isn't yet known. Do you have access to some sort of inside information the rest of us don't? Or, are you just making up random crap because it validates some whacko left-wing inspired agenda you've come to embrace? I'm pretty sure I know the answer. Let's see if you're self aware enough to answer accurately.

But I still think if you isolate the random, non gang related or criminal activity related mass shootings, the USA has a significant problem. And that discussion is important. And we can argue mental health issues...but often we don't know until AFTER the mass shooting. Sure sometimes there is a sign, but nobody wants Red Flag or to enforce Red Flag......I don't know.

I guess we just accept life in the USA.

And I will wonder off topic a bit...one way to stop criminals from getting guns is to stop leaving a gun bought legally in an unlocked car.

It's a problem in our town. Responsible (cough, cough) gun owners leave their guns in their unlocked cars overnight and then complain when they are 'broken into' (they don't have to break anything -- they open the door and look there it is). Our community police have a whole campaign of "It's 9 o'clock time to secure your vehicle and your valuables and guns in your car."
You really hit on the key point when you say "enforce".

That's really the problem imo around the country and that pertains to red flag as well as other serious crimes.

Frankly, I'm concerned that with surging crime there is political pressure to downgrade charges so that they don't show up in crime stats. Dropping charges, downgrading felonies to misdemeanors etc. Hard to get red flagged when they won't even prosecute you with stuff to get you listed as such.

The shooter has been charged with bias-motivated crimes causing bodily injury (Colorado version of hate crime). No mention of evidence underlying the charges as of yet.
