    When can we expect a Trump tweet?

    *checks the skin color of the perpetrator*

    Ah, ok - never, got it.

    And here's an interesting quirk - this event does not qualify as a mass shooting because only three people were shot and injured/killed.

    Congrats on the fresh bodies! I'm sure you'll use them to your advantage.

    Indeed. On average, around 23 people are murdered with a firearm each day in the US.
    And, for every gun used to commit murder in the US on the average day, around 16,000,000 are not.

    Murder is still illegal... So the logic behind this thread is that since people kill people we should have no issue bringing in more people that... kill people...

    Brilliant logic from the ahem lawyer.

    What a truly, truly, truly pathetic attempt to discern the underlying logic of my post.

    What was bogus about the OP? Did he not kill several people in a walmart? Has Trump tweeted about the killing? Is this considered a mass shooting?

    Given the complete lack thereof, you can understand the difficulty.

    Do you expect a President to tweet about every killing? Mass shooting has a definition does it not? Hmm think we have had this conversation before... Oh yes in every ****ing thread about that even mentions the word gun...

    Trump immediately politicizes every tragedy...when that tragedy involves someone that isn't white.

    Again. An accusation based on your hatred instead of facts... Its messed up you honestly believe you can utter what ever nonsense and then expect people to take it as factual.

    Wasnt that long ago ( for those with no short term memory) that Trump commented about the Vegas shootings... Have you forgotten that? Have your handlers told you to move on?

    Hateful people making hate filled claims to further an agenda that believe their own nonsense are dangerous.

    It is full of historical proof though.

    And I disagree. He has a logic. It is to constantly demonize immigrants and minorities because his base consists of white terrified little ******* who need to be scared in order to support whatever tax cut for the rich he is pushing.

    He commented on Las Vegas.

    And then said that we may talk about how to respond, but not right now because it is too soon.

    Like I said, he won't politicize an event unless that event involves a minority as the perpetrator.

    Notice the Las Vegas shooting has disappeared from the network radar screen. The story has changed three times. Campos was allegedly allowed to leave the country during an investigation and traveled easily after being shot. Campos has had one interview where the interviewer scripted the timeline, not Campos. The shooter's hard drive was missing from his PC and the police now claim they went in to the room shooting which doesn't make sense if he killed himself.

    Shortly after the NY plow down and the Walmart shooting we know who did what.

    Since you've been less than honest before and, since you constantly post racist posts, I doubt your veracity.

    Because as many think what laws would have stopped that shooting?

    However in the NY case the guy should have never been here to begin with. Certainly not to appease some wierd thought that "diversity" Trumps logic .
