    What's your source for him having a violent nutbag history that "they" should have imprisoned him for?

    I just checked half a dozen stories, and while it's early days, all I have seen dug up to now is an arrest record with a couple of traffic violations and marijuana possession.

    On this basis UA clearly can't be trusted with guns.

    Sigh. Fine, gimme a gun - I know some cunts need killing.

    Around 90% of the species, in point of fact.

    Are we sure the 2nd Amendment lets me have nukes?

    I forgot to mention, the truck that the shooter stole, I walked right by it when I was in the parking garage. I remember the truck only because I thought it was weird that a truck with branches and tools for landscaping would be in that parking garage. The building it's underneath is mainly apartments. There isn't any real need for landscaping by that garage and building. There are restaurants that are within easy walking distance, and I did think that maybe the driver was getting lunch at one of them.

    This is Jeff Leach, co-author of the 2021 Texas Permitless Carry bill -- the #txlege State Rep. who represents #Allen, where 8 people were just killed in a mass shooting. With all due respect, @leachfortexas, you're a state legislator -- & TX needs you to do more than pray.

    So this shooting shit at the stadium and cobb center is done now, right? I need to check if there is any interference with momocon at the end of may considering it is right in that area.

    I do hope CNN had some good coverage considering their headquarters is right around that area. Seriously, they could have waited and sent don lemon down there to do something with the end of his career.

    I notice that all the republicans trying to claim mass shootings were trans kids have been drowned out by the news stoiries about cis males killing people with these guns. Where were those idiots saying it was all trans kids fault today?

    Oh yeah, they drank a giant cup of shut the fuck up when they should be apologizing.

    Here's a quote from a press conference by that fucking piece of shit asshole Texas Governor Greg Abbott:

    “There are questions that are lingering that the families want answers to,” Abbott said, such as “‘Why did this happen? Why did the gunman do this? How did this happen?’ And I know that those families need an answer as quickly as possible.”

    For the learning impaired, I'll answer Gov. Abbott's questions.

    "Why did this happen?"

    The second amendment.

    "Why did the gunman do this?"

    The shitty state of your mental healthcare system and the second amendment.

    "How did this happen?"

    The second amendment.

    Fuck the fuck off, Gov. Abbott.

    To go a step further it comes from a 15 year old reading of the 2nd amendment.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_of_Columbia_v._Heller

    I say this because many of the pro-murder crowd act like 2nd guarantees the right of everyone to a machine gun on demand when this is a VERY new interpretation of the 2nd. It can be interpreted differently.

    Heard that he "consumed a lot of white supremist propaganda on his social media".

    Y'know, safe bet the death caused by Storm's meme swill either isn't zero, or if it is zero, won't stay that way for long.

    Every time there’s another one of these appalling shooting, I think about what the public policy reaction would be if there were a low-grade terror campaign by a foreign enemy that, every week or so, had suicide attackers assault schools, religious institutions, and malls.
