That sound you’re hearing is the media wrenching the steering column onto a new narrative.
Suddenly there aren’t any sociopolitical angles worth discussing!

If he had been a Tea Party or trump Supporter the Media scum suckers would be on it all week long but since is is Islamic Listen to the Crickets everyone
Just saw the idiot Biden on television pretending to care about the cop that was killed. I guess he is jealous of Cuomo’s Emmy. Of course, all of the idiot Biden’s performances are scripted.
He mentioned a “modified” rifle. It is illegal to modify a rifle. I guess he doesn’t see the relationship to all their draconian “common sense gun control” proposals. Maybe if the FBI spent more time TRACKING terrorists that INVENTING them, this kind of attack could be prevented.
He had a history of violence.
Do I get to file a “hate crime” in a Muslim country if they tell me to convert or die?
No.
Such violence, hatred, and anger just seems to be the pattern of Trump loving thugs today. Plus, they’ve been primed for such (“punch them in the face” “”don’t be nice (to police cadets)” etc.), “go liberate (states he recommended to not liberate and follow CDC guidelines).
And once we heard “suspect taken into custody”, well, we pretty much new the guy was white.
The pro-school shooting GOP has brought this reputation upon themselves.
Obama is finally right about something. He said the shooting was caused by “disaffection, racism and misogyny”.
@Ronald J. Ward: So, you are right even when you are wrong.
Got it.
“And once we heard “suspect taken into custody”, well, we pretty much new the guy was white.”
Oops!

“Del origen Sirio y fanatico del Islam”
@Ronald J. Ward:
He is SYRIAN, you complete racist idiot.
@Ronald J. Ward:
I’ll be kind and let you eat your words, admit your ignorance for us all.
Stop spreading propaganda. What you are doing ends in one way: genocide of whites.
White people have paid their dues. It’s done. Get over it.
@Ronald J. Ward: Funny you should mention pattern of hatred. Go look in the mirror. You should hate you are wrong so often and display it on a public forum. But I think I’ve found your crowd.

@Mully: All people like AJ and those other morons making those idiotic comments without even CARING if they have any facts prove is that all they care about is promoting their ideology’s agenda, which in this case is racism.
Can you figure out why you don’t see ads that promote greater availability of assault weapons?
Veterans For Gun Reform Public Service Ad
It’s simple. No one could make one that makes sense.
@Greg: What’s an “assault weapon”? A weapon used in an assault? Wouldn’t that be just about ANYTHING?
I’m tired of hearing that particular argument. It never did make sense.
Anyone who has served in the military should be able to make a clear distinction between the rifle that’s hanging on my wall six feet from where I’m sitting and the rifle I carried in Vietnam. They’re both lethal weapons, but one was specifically designed with combat effectiveness in mind. It’s a matter of functionality, not of appearance. The functionality of a certain class of combat firearms is different than that of sporting firearms. Capability of an extended high rate of fire has no place in a civilian setting. We have too many irresponsible, unbalanced, and impulsive civilians for that.
@Greg: Sounds like you stayed in Vietnam, after we lost…then headed north to PCR.
It all makes sense now.
There is no logical argument for gun control. Period.
Pull of the vid of the “Raz” handing out assault weapons to minors.
That’s you. That’s the people you support. They love guns.
@Greg: So… evade, dodge and scurry.
It is a term to demonize. Induce fear. LIE. An AR-15 is a semi-automatic rifle. Nothing more. If someone decides to assault with it, they could do the same with an ax. This is about disarmament, not safety.
@Deplorable Me: Look, it doesn’t matter in the end. We are unique in that we allow citizens to have guns. Real guns.
Of course a Party who rigged and election and has taken millions, if not billions, from the CCP (who knows very well how to disarm a population in order to subjugate it) is going to stand on the backs of dead people in order to get it’s agenda through.
They will kill many, many more if they have their way.
Facts.
P.S. -Now the greg persona is back to that Vietnam B.S.?
If he did serve, he was certainly a coward. No one could do through that war and have the backwards, and ignorant views greg seems to have.
@Deplorable Me:
In terms of capacity and rate of fire the design of an AR-15 is that of a combat weapon. They’re not much different from a Vietnam era M16 or a contemporary M4. The main difference is the lack of a selector switch. The same can be said of the LESOCOM or civilian versions of the Kalashnikov. “Assault weapon” is just a generic term referring to combat functionality. Uninformed people may think it’s vague, but it isn’t. It’s generic.
@Deplorable Me:
Your sophomoric specious and non sequitur babble exposes your continued rejection of critical thinking.
I’m not going to Google the statistic but I’d wager that more people are killed each year from being assaulted with a kitchen butcher knife than aircrafts being assaulted and knocked out of the sky by civilians launching ballistic missiles.
Regardless of the numbers, it’s illogical to suggest we make butcher knives illegal and allow civilians to purchase and horde ballistic missiles in secrecy and with abandon.
But yeah, just about anything could be an assault weapon.
@Ronald J. Ward:
Wow! You really outdid yourself on that little bit of psychobabble bullshit.
And you would be correct. You would also be correct (a rarity for you) if you said that more people in the U.S. were murdered with knives, of all kinds including kitchen knives, than they are with the evil rifle that Democrats want only the NG protecting them to have. As a matter of fact, if you said that more people are murdered using “personal weapons”, i.e. hands, feet, fists, than are murdered with the evil rifle, again, you would be correct.
As ususal, you are just blathering bullshit. How about we save lives and ban all knives, fists, hands and feet? Don’t forget to ban the deadly hammer, as well.
As proven by the FBI.
@retire05:
Funny that exactly what England has done, seems Ward is ignorant of facts, such as murderous intent. They cant attack the shooter, so attack the weapon of choice.
The entire household of this shooter should lose their refugee status and be deported back to Africa, as an example.
He was another known wolf.
@retire05:
So you approve of the average American buying stock piles of weapons capable of taking aircrafts out of the sky?
@Ronald J. Ward:
I have never heard of any average Americans who even wanted to take aircrafts out of the sky. The interest in that activity has seemingly been limited to those of the same faith as the Boulder shooter.
@Greg:
The rate of fire of an AR-15 is no faster nor more lethal than any other semi-automatic weapon. The rate at which a spent casing is ejected and a new round loaded is constant. I see you don’t know what you are talking about.
Any firearm could be used in combat. It it spits out a bullet, it is combat worthy. Others may be superior. An AR-15 is a semi-automatic rifle. Nothing more. It merely looks cool. My father used to have a .22 magazine-fed semi-automatic rifle that had a fold-down fore-grip. It would be deemed just as scary as an AR-15, by liberal standards. Absolutely absurd.
The term “assault weapon” is propaganda, intended to strike fear in the minds of the ignorant.
@Ronald J. Ward:
Before you put more of your stupidity on display, why don’t you Google how many are killed by “assault weapons” compared to killed with fists or feet? Your Democrats don’t care a bit about “public safety”. Anyone that believes their lies are simply stupid.
Yet, in Britain, where their gun ban has failed to end violent crimes, that is exactly what they are considering. Logic has nothing to do with gun control. The goal is subjugation.
@Ronald J. Ward:
Do you?
@retire05:
My comment to Deplorable, which you intruded on, pertained to what classified as assault weapons. Obviously, it isn’t within reason to take away butter knives, pool cues, hammers, cars, fist and feet and so forth. This ploy of the radical right is no more than cowardly evading a reasonable limit, since, well, as you say, Americans aren’t targeting the airlines.
This is simply the obedient indoctrinated abiding by the playbook that all’s fine and dandy, nothing a few “thoughts and prayers” for the uptenth 100 times can’t fix.
@Deplorable Me:
No. I do not believe average American citizens should be able to randomly buy weapons of mass destruction such as something that could take a jet out of the sky.
Do you?
The cognitive dissonance is dizzying on this case.
A Syrian “white man.”
But, for years now, the Lefties have been trying to make a big point of the fact that Middle Eastern-born Jesus Christ was a “man of color.”
This guy was on the radar of the FBI for terrorist leanings, paranoia and other extremist leanings of the Islamic kind.
So, now he acts and is, POOF!, he’s transformed into a white boy!
PS, on May 5th all of Utah can freely conceal carry without a permit!
@Ronald J. Ward: No. I don’t. Do you think someone is actually wanting to own anti-aircraft weapons? If so, who?
Oh, look… I showed AJ how easy it is to answer a question.
OK, if AR-15’s represent a miniscule number of violent crimes, why ban them? Why do you Democrats lie about gun control?
@Nan G: ALSO, that opposing the immigration of un-vettable people from failed nations rife with terrorism is “racist”. If they are considered “white”, how is it racist to not want them immigrating here?
The alternative of banning assault weapons, and all guns (the real goal) is a genocide.
We could help to destroy the CCP just by smuggling weapons in.
Why is that, then?
Because and armed population is a safer population.
Period.
CHAZ in Portland, and now the Floyd Zone know that well. First step they took?
Get some guns.
There is no rational argument for gun control…at all.
@Deplorable Me,
The problem is that you don’t know what I’m talking about. “Capability of an extended high rate of fire” isn’t a reference to theoretical cycling rate. It relates to how many rounds can be quickly fired before pausing to reload and how quickly reloading can be accomplished. A Colt AR-15 will accept a 30-round magazine and fire as quickly as the trigger can be pulled. Dropping an empty magazine, inserting a loaded magazine, and chambering a round might take 4 seconds. You could probably fire the rifle continuously 30 times per minute for several minutes before overheating shut it down. The foregoing are characteristics of “assault rifles”, not of traditional hunting or recreational firearms. Contrary to the NRA’s line of bullsh*t, the AR-15 isn’t actually well suited to either hunting or home defense. The projectile isn’t really adequate for deer and is silly for birds or rabbits; it has too much velocity and range to fire indoors or on your front lawn, posing a risk to others besides a home intruder. The design is appropriate to a light and agile battlefield weapon. The NRA is defending a profitable product, not the wider public interest.
@Greg:
The recoil being minimal it makes the rifle an excellent equalizer for a female home defender.
How many do you know that fire their weapons on the front lawn or indoors? Most go to the range to practice, or where there is acreage enough sight in.
The NRA is just the boogyman of the left with much less lobbying power than the biggest serial murderers PP. Will new laws help, no because the mentally ill and criminals dont GAF about the stinking laws.
@Greg:
No, the problem is YOU don’t know what you are talking about. An air-soft gun can look EXACTLY like an AR-15. While it doesn’t fire real bullets, it is heavy and hard enough to beat someone to death with. Should they be banned? It’s scary looking and it CAN be deadly.
False. ANY semi-automatic rifle has those characteristics. Also false, the AR-15 is well suited for hunting AND home defense, especially in these days of violent BLM/ANTIFA mobs that only operate in great numbers, surround and swarm their targets. If you would recall, ONE MAN with an AR-15 stood down an entire BLM mob that was moving across his property and into his neighborhood, and they weren’t there to “peacefully protest”; they rarely, if ever, are.
I would argue that the conditions created by Democrats, lying about deaths in police custody, inciting violence, accepting violence, promoting violence, excusing violence (as long as it is of their approved variety) and ignoring enforcing laws to end the violence, citizens in certain areas (Democrat controlled) are in true need of effective self defense. Those conditions are not getting better; they are continuing to deteriorate. Democrats have destroyed the argument that “no one needs an AR-15”. Hell, to anyone not a liberal and that believes in this country, there should be an income tax deduction for buying one.
If you see anything but leftist propaganda, you would see that Democrats have turned much of this country into battlegrounds. The NRA knows that all the left needs is a beginning; ban one weapon, others will follow. We’ve already seen the proposals, to ban ANY semi-automatic weapon. No, thanks. Democrats have demonstrated that they are not to be trusted and when they control the government, the government cannot be trusted. Obama’s abuse of the FBI, DOJ, FISA, ERA and IRS, any intelligent American that cares about their rights knows not to submit to any further erosion of them or to trust them with “registries”.
In fact, your latest fanatical reaction to the 2020 election, suggesting Trump supporters be imprisoned, “re-educated”, doxxed and banned from making a living pretty much disqualifies Democrats from suggesting the government or any leftist be the arbiters of mental health to prevent more left-wing nuts from purchasing and owning weapons.
I am against ANY and ALL additional gun control. You Democrats have totally made it all suspect.
@kitt:
You fire it where you NEED to fire it. That’s what the left wants to eliminate; having it when you NEED it, because THEY would most likely be on the other end.
@Greg:
You’re not he majority. The interest in keeping the Constitution as our founding document, and the 2nd Amendment, is vastly supported by THE MAJORITY of Americans.
Your using guns as a strawman.
Your argument is invalid, and can’t stand up to rational thought.
Yes. For armed citizens to fight a corrupt government, or to defend from invaders.
That’s why the gun is appropriate and any move to get rid of it is treason.
@kitt, #31:
That’s the “battlefield” on which home defense generally takes place.
@Deplorable Me, #32:
Uh, NO. That’s the reason armies are not equipped with just any semi-automatic rifle, but with weapons that are specifically designed for battlefield condition.
The NRA and right-wing delusion and paranoia might be pushing things in that direction. So far the “battles” seem to consist of innocent civilians regularly massacred by armed lunatics in what were formerly safe settings. This is what happens when you flood a country with guns and diminish controls to the point where anybody who wants one has little trouble finding one. You can’t let market forces control that, because some people will happily sell poison if there’s profit in it. You can’t let every individual decide for himself, because “every individual” includes a huge number of people who pose serious threats to everyone around them. You have to impose reasonable controls. If you want evidence of any of this, turn on the news.
@Greg: “The design is appropriate to a light and agile battlefield weapon.”
You are really making a fool of your self today. No military has ever been issued such a weak weapon, they would laugh and throw it away, demanding a WW2 M1 before using it.
Meanwhile, Biden just completed a fake “news conference” in which he read his answers since he already had all the questions ahead of time. He said he entered the Senate 120 years ago. No raising of hands to be called on, everything scripted.
His crowning moment was reading a 3 minute answer about infrastructure as an answer to a question about gun control.
@Nathan Blue:
We have ballot boxes and courts to fight corrupt government, and trained armed forces to protect us from armed invasion. We got a glimpse of what self-appointed defenders and protectors of the Constitution look like on January 6th. Thanks, but no thank you. They’re a solution to absolutely nothing. They’re the domestic threat that the Founding Fathers were talking about.
@Greg: Like all of your sort cant pull your head out of your ass.
You have never studied the founding you parrot utter twisted garbage of the insane.
BTW seems the shooter chose his target very carefully…
King Soopers, a kosher friendly supermarket in Boulder, Colorado. King Soopers is known by Jews as a place where they can purchase their food easily due to their extensive kosher items. A Radical Islamist, and ISIS member drove 25 miles out of his way to get to this specific store just to shoot everyone in sight. Yet, not a single mainstream outlet wants to talk about the fact that the location of the attack is a Jewish store, with a majority Jewish clientele.
@kitt:
Isn’t it ironic how the left wing press had hounded us about white “supremacy” and made it almost seem as if those white “supremacists” are rampaging neighborhoods of color slaughtering anyone whose head pops up? Now we learn that a man, who the left press would normally refer to as a person of color, has all of a sudden become quite white and not one word how every damn one of his victims were extremely fair skinned white people.
@Greg:
Um, yeah, and so does Venezuela.
Um, hum. Like those armed forces protected David Dorn, right?
Remind us again about all the property damage, the looting, the burned down buildings, the destroyed businesses that we watched as the videos showed on CNN from January 6th.
ROTFLMAO. All the years you have been here and you still don’t know jack shit. The Founders were warning us about the “domestic” threat that our Federal government is rapidly turning into.
You’re an idiot, Comrade Greggie.
@retire05, #41:
Perhaps there’s nothing here to be learned from, other than the recurring object lessons in abnormal psychology and examples of what traditional conservatism has degenerated into. Unfortunately you have no more insight into that than you do into your own hostile behavior.
@Greg:
So, which nation’s army equips their soldiers with semi-automatics?
While we all wait for your data, I’ll provide this. In the past couple of decades, MILLIONS of citizens have bought guns. Yet, until very recently, crime was on the decline. So, most definitely, MORE guns did NOT result in MORE crime. Quite possibly, more citizens legally armed has REDUCED crime.
Enter Obama. He inflamed racial animus. He encouraged riots and conflict. He made excuses for rioters. He let violent criminals out of prisons. Democrats provided sanctuary for illegal immigrants, many of whom are violent criminals.
Then, enter Trump. Leftists go totally mad. Political violence skyrockets. The left characterizes EVERY minority death in police custody as a racial murder, inciting riots, looting, injury and murders. Random people are beset upon by BLM/ANTIFA thugs. Democrats appease, excuse, promote and ignore the violence, so it continues to increase. In short, Democrats are creating MORE violence and are expecting citizens not to seek to defend themselves.
It took 20 minutes for the police to respond to the Boulder shooter.
Democrats are turning our country into a war zone. Currently it is primarily in Democrat areas, which doesn’t currently affect me, but under the idiot Biden and as politicized law enforcement seeks out boogie-man threats that serves a political end, citizens become more and more at risk.
The ballot box has been compromised. Looking at HR1, we can all see the existential threat to our free society. Democrats seek a totalitarian police state and HR1 would get us there.
That was a direct response to the left wing violence that is STILL going on in the west. Funny how you think destroying cities based on lies about a police killing is justified but people outraged over Democrat abuses of our laws and government is not. Either both are wrong or both or justified. You can’t simply ignore the one you want to continue.
No, there are simply too many here your ilk cannot bullshit.
