    Shooter was a republican

    Shotee was a republican

    Enablers of shooter were republicans

    Peddlers of political violence are all republicans

    Mainstream Media: “DeMoCrATiC RhEToRiC UnDeR ScutiNy foR PoLitiCAL VioLenCE”

    It’s like they are not even hiding their intentions to bring about Nazi regime in power anymore

    Frankly, I think they should get sponsored by Glock or HK and just hand out a loaded 9mm to all attendees at the door, 20 round extended magazines too, none of those factory 15 round or pussy liberal 10 round restricted mags. When everyone has a gun, I bet they would feel so safe.

    Edit: another thought; no safeties, just double action triggers. Hell, no safeties and single action triggers, bet they’d feel so damned safe.

      Been in a few places where everyone had a gun. Feels like walk in a land of fools, and it only takes one.

        SOME are well trained. Others not so much so then you have a ton of people self taught in terms of marksmanship going offer the fist gunman. I am sure there will be not collateral damage.

          It’s like driving down a road at 130 mph. Blow out one tire and you’re toast. Doesn’t matter which tire. Old one or new one. Doesn’t matter.

    What’s the matter Evers, are they dangerous or something

    The schoolchildren seem to be dealing with them without any kind of problems, I feel like full grown adults should—

    Oh wait

    Hey hang on I think I do see what you’re getting at

    And hear me out, I might have a CRAZY idea

    (Honestly man I feel like it should be some kind of constitutional amendment general rule or something, like the “It was fine when it was someone else’s loved ones on the line so go fuck yourself” act or something)

        Just this morning, a guy in my neighborhood was arrested because the bullets in his gun went on a killing spree while he was asleep. It was pretty wild hearing about inanimate objects doing murdery things with no human interaction whatsoever.

      Honestly man it makes perfect sense. We gave the Republicans guns and got them all amped up on violent lunacy and now it’s turned up all the way to 11; they shouldn’t be allowed to have guns anywhere NEAR the convention center, in a sensible world. However we do not live in a sensible world and whose fault is literally 100% of all of that

      I SAID WHOSE FAULT IS IT EVERS

      YOU FUCKIN HYPOCRITE

    Legally, he can’t take away people’s guns and besides, Republicans hate that entire concept. Instead he should focus on keeping out and removing people with mental health problems.

    Then it’d be a quiet and quaint little get together “under the tent” as it were with just a handful of Republicans present. Then maybe we’d see a sane nominee!

    Surely, just like their rhetoric to arm every teacher in schools, giving every person at the RNC a gun when they enter will make it the safest place in the world.

    I don’t like that they can create a perimeter and inspect peoples’ possessions outside the event area at all. People shouldn’t have to give up their right to be free from unreasonable searches in public places.

    It is, of course hilarious that Republicans created an exception for guns and suddenly don’t like it.
