I hope there were finger guns. He’s best when he adds in some finger guns.

Like a lot of posters have already said, I don’t think progressives like a 24-hr news channel, especially one that provokes outrage. I wish fox news didn’t exist. It’s making everyone insane.

Yeah exactly TV news is like so 90's. Aside from Maddow and being trapped in waiting rooms I don’t watch it and neither do any of my peers. The people I do know who watch it are boomer aged and/or republican. It’s a dying medium of news. Like newspapers oldsters and conservatives are the only ones keeping it alive.

MSNBC made the decision last year that they needed to compete with Fox. The lower rungs were told that they were going to seek more “moderate” programming, but the upper rungs were already planning a Trumpalooza. I hope they fall on their face (except for Maddow, long live Maddow.) There’s already a glut of white,

It also ignores the fact that the only reason why pre-Chavez Venezuela wasn’t “on the verge of bankruptcy” is because, while the old pro-capitalist regime also stole wealth left and right, it wasn’t simultaneously trying to maintain social welfare systems to benefit the public. People who piss about post-Chavez

Speaking of Venezuela, is anyone else seeing their conservative relatives constantly post on Facebook about the chaos going on there and saying that’s exactly what America will be like if SOCIALIST BERNIE SANDERS gets elected president?

He doesn't just need to resign, he needs to be brought up on charges of extreme criminal negligence. This guy shrugged his shoulders while tens of thousands of people were poisoned.

This goes much higher up. She wasn’t the one who put emergency managers in place. Rick Snyder needs to be recalled since he doesn’t have the good graces to resign.

Because all nationalities are like that, everyone around the world has violent idiots. But by giving people access to a weapon that can fire 16 bullets in as many seconds you are making it so easy for people to kill people.

In all honesty, one of our closest family friends was murdered in a mass shooting two decades ago. He was a random victim of an angry white man on a rampage over a “dispute” with a former employer. I do not think it’s overly cynical to call this the normal. Not the new normal, but just normal full stop. I’m an upper

Oh, I forgot about that one. Never mind, the US has no problem with gun violence. The US has had more gun violence this morning than the UK has in 10 years.

Sure they could have. But 355 so far this year? 30,000 deaths by firearm this year. Not admitting America has a problem with gun violence is sticking your head so far in the sand it surfaces in Australia.

By that logic, there’s no point having laws against any crime because criminals don’t care about them.

This. The American public decided then and there that the right to bear arms without infringement is worth the occasional bloodbath of young children.

Is there ever going to be a point where the gun lovers say “you know what, enough is enough” and support stricter laws around gun ownership, or will this just continue on and on with people being indiscriminately gunned down while the gun lovers say “meh, my freedomz trump your right to life”.

It never ceases to amaze me how far people will go to explain away incidents like this that don’t fit their definition of terrorism when we have more than enough concrete facts to say that this was a targeted attack on a group of people who did not fall in line with the shooter’s beliefs.

I get you. I don’t think it will stop.

My adrenaline was already up because someone that I thought I could trust to be a rational human being started trying to tell me that the PP shooting from last Friday was not as bad as it’s been made out to be and that the bank was the actual target and then I fucking refresh my Facebook and this is the story that

Honestly, that might be the best thing at this point. Maybe if we ignore them the behavior will stop? Like how you ignore children acting out for attention in the hopes that it will extinguish the behavior? I realize that this is unrealistic, wishful thinking but I think my brain is starting to shut down.

And then they will cease reporting them at all. It’s the new normal.
