“If this individual turns out to be mentally unstable” It was in my original post...
“possibly deranged person” It was in my second one...
I qualified my statements based on the assumption of the guy being crazy.
That said, he turned out to be a bit off... didn’t he?

I don’t like dealing in absolutes, although everything I’ve read indicates that he’s a loon.

I see you’ve missed the point.
My comment has nothing to do with banning private ownership. It has to do with this specific congressman pushing specific policies that allowed a possibly deranged person access to the weapon that was used to shoot said congressman. If this congressman pushed policies that allowed easier…

I didn’t read that as deserved to be shot, I read that as partially responsible for the shooters ability to purchase their weapon.
If I hand my car key to someone who is untrained or visibly drunk, I’m liable for the actions that occur. If this individual turns out to be mentally unstable then Scalise and his politics…

Poo made me laugh (hence his star), you’re the telling truth (hence yours).

No. There were not “good guys with guns”. There were trained professionals there tasked with the safety of these politicians. It’s disingenuous to make the “good guys with guns” claim, it minimizes the importance of professional training, and makes it seem like this would have been prevented if there were a couple of…

Does this view apply to Latinos as well?
How are your feelings any different than those held by the individuals in the article?

You’re one of those... got it...

Or so that it’s visible and gives us all the opportunity to light this ass-clown up and then block them (I would hope)

What needs to be said about “whites marrying POC”?
What are those “obvious reasons”?
You’ll have to extrapolate a little more before we can decide which side of wrong you are.

If you paid enough? Yes it would...

Depends on where he blocks them.
If he’s blocking them from the @realdonaldtrump you’re correct
If he’s blocking them from the potus address then they might have something. That address is for official government based statements, and silencing someone whose commenting on a official statement is a bit slippery.

So you’re ok with a teacher hitting a student with a broom?
A student who was apparently hit with the broom first by another student (according to the article)...
Yes parents need to assume the responsibility for raising their kids correctly, but it’s not the teachers job to levy that sort of punishment.

But they will, and are already....
Big oil is one of the leading investors in green energy.
I mean, shoot, if they see the writing on the wall why can’t we? (the royal we, not most of us in this thread)
