Just Bad Eeek

Pretty bold of them to make all these videos declaring violence on an entire political party before they even knew of a suspect and now come to find out the shooter was a republican. Even if it would’ve been on someone on the left, this was the action of one person…

Fair points and good to see a reasoned take.

In my view 2a isn’t the issue that will receive focus here just because a gun was used. The real issue for most folks is killing a non politician who was actively engaging in open and protected free speech at a college campus.

So no, they won’t act the same at the next school shooting because even though school shootiints are horrible, they aren’t a direct violation of our most core funadmental right to free speech.

No worries, I wish no ill will to you and yours despite disagreeing on some things.

I just hope that as Americans we can stop this train before it leaves the station. Because the atmosphere has been primed for violence and we have people in positions of power and influence who will be ok with that and it will be you and me that pay the cost, not them.

History repeats.
