Neither do you. If you did, the photo would outrage you. But it doesnt, because you dont give a ****, unless you can use it to your advantage
Yes, it hat is true The media does in fact look for headlines that generate emotions rather that; clarity I just think that we should be clear in what we are saying in our discussions
Why distinguish them at all? They're people being killed by gun violence. So some gun violence is unacceptable but some of it is just eh? Figured.
Its true - some gun violence is more acceptable than others - and you claiming otherwise is lying to yourself.
The President defines the culture? What about Hollywood and the media? Given that Donald Trump has been President less than three years he hasn't had much time to change anything cultural.
He has embolden white nationalists, bigots and uneducated slobs living in the Red States...3 years has been plenty of time
So you're just going to ignore the op and keep parroting illogical and dishonest liberal talking points?
Now you're getting into more serious areas than the simple minded 'let's blame Trump' crowd, and that's a good start. https://futurism.media/millennials-are-aliens-and-they-are-alienated
You'd have a point if it was me that start these kind of threads. As it is, all the righties start these kind of threads as a mean to bash Democrats for political points. You don't really care about the cause or how to solve the issue otherwise you would offer some solutions. So excuse me if I don't buy in to your nonsensical moral outrage.
|You should avoid trying to be clever. Testosterone is a contributing factor but obviously not the only one.
Take that BS List (made only to Deflect from the FACT that Trump's RACIST Rhetoric CAUSED the El Paso Massacre) and do THIS: Eliminate all Shootings the were Gang-Related, Domestic Disputes, or Less than 4 People were Killed. Do that, Get back to me, Post your results. Thanks in advance. Do THAT, and then we will see if that BS Narrative still holds water. Btw--Maybe you are just a big fan of RW Confirmation Bias? No matter how ludicrous the source (or "methodology")?
Thing is, its what’s said AND reported repeatedly. When there are “292 mass shootings” and mass shooting this, mass shooting that, well here you go. Here is who and how they get that “292 mass shootings” this year alone. If they want to use that figure to try and remove civil rights, then that figure needs to be explored thoroughly. Come to find out, dang, it’s a lot of gangland crap and domestic incidents as opposed to active shooter situations like we had this past weekend.
You obviously haven't been paying attention. That "narrative" in that BS List has been DESTROYED several times over. Next time, Read before you Post. ^Nothing personal, just some friendly advice
Do you have an easy explanation of how he accomplished this fantastic feat in just 2.5 years? Perhaps when he's re-elected he can change them back again.
Yes, that is good context My point is why not start the discussion saying that.... So that THAT is clearly the topic Rather than starting by ignoring that question And then struggling to identify what is the point
I posted that originally when Obama was President. OK, then explain to me why these so called "assault rifles" have been sold to the public since 1963, yet mass shootings with them didn't start till the 1990's? What's changed? The guns have always been there.
I would say the common denominator, and the real "disease" is what would cause a person to want to kill a bunch of strangers in a public place. The access to weapons is a symptom, not the disease itself. I feel that denying law abiding citizen their rights because of the actions of a very few....even if those actions are very heinous, should be a last resort. So, are you ok with the MSM misrepresenting the facts (number of mass shootings this year) in order to make the issue larger than it is (not saying it isn't already at critical level)?
I'm sure that by now, progressives in the media, and those of an anti 2A persuasion who work for orgs that gather these stats are trying to figure out how to backpedal away from the current definition of mass shooting... and it's because the truth is that it's not just a bunch of crazy racist white dudes
In my observation white liberals don't care about gang shootings because they feel they can stay out of bad (liberal code word) neighborhoods.
The "Definition" in the OP is a Complete Joke (and Nobody takes it setiously). That said, if you are a fan of FAKE Narratives and Confirmation Bias, the OP will probably fit your wheelhouse.
