    ATF originally stated that they had to do a DNA test. You just proved my point.

    The very last thing that these politicians want to get out is that the weapon used was a fully automatic rifle that a cartel member used while guarding a drug shipment that crossed the open border.

    Innocent until proven guilty. If you don't take them to court to 1) convict them of a crime 2) have them civilly committed because they're a psychotic who is dangerous to themselves and/or others or 3) have a protective order brought, they haven't been proven anything.

    We have these things called rights. They depend on people not being profligate pieces of **** who so neglect their own child's mental state they miss something as obvious as this dude being crazy as a **** house rat and wanting to kill people.

    Patrol rifles go in the car dude. They used to keep shotguns there, but now most of them are packing an AR. You telling me there isn't 1 ****ing squad car watching that parade route? Not even a traffic puke directing traffic? FFS, you want to talk about a failing look no further.
    Any cop gets full auto that cares to fill out the paperwork. Cop is a cop is a cop, don't need to be swat.
    Cops in my tiny podunk town have the giggle hole : I have no idea why cops in that podunk town would not.

    They did not state that they had to do a DNA test! You do like to make things up, don't you

    Liberal news outlets have already dropped this story like a fart in the wind since they realized, yet again, it’s one of their own.

    Pistols are sidearms used to get you to your rifle.
    Normally in their squad car in the front seat in an upright locking clip ready to be grabbed. Same place they used to keep the shotguns. Now they keep the patrol rifle there, and leave the shotgun in the trunk for when they need to load a bean bag round if they even keep a shotgun around at all.

    "Please provide reference for your statement that this guy is a member of a gang. Or you can admit that you are just making up crap and throwing it to see if anything sticks. Which will only confirm what we already assume: that you are incapable of contributing any serious arguments to a debate."

    There is where you accuse him of claiming this clown was in a gang, which is a lie.

    WHAT is the "lie"? He DID claim that he was in a gang. This is what he responded when we were discussing how my proposals might pertain to this case (quoting him): "Gang bangers are going to turn their guns in? "

    Now, your retraction has to be explicit! And next time, I would advice that you DON'T jump into a conversation when you don't know what it's about. Especially not making unfounded accusations.

    I expect your unequivocal retraction in your next response.

    The death total went to seven. and the shooter known as Robert Crimo also dressed like a woman to escape from the crowd. What is he? A weirdo or something? This SOB ought to be locked away forever and I mean it,

    The death total went to seven. We also know the assassin was a guy named Robert Crimo he did the shooting and dressed like a girl to escape from the crowd. To me this guy is a real weirdo and looks it too. This SOB ought to be locked up and throw away the key, so he never gets out.

    Killing seven people at a special 4th of July parade I believe was uncalled for. no one and not even the seven that were killed deserved to die. I just wish future inmates, beat this weirdo to a pulp forever.

    Yes he should be locked up and studied. Maybe then we can find out what makes lefties like him tick.

    Personally! for the suffering he has caused to so many people, I'd prefer to see this POS slowly inserted feet first into a meat grinder, but if he rots in Prison for life while being the defenseless sexual servant to some Prison Bucks, I'll accept that. Such a Sickening individual who is deserving of absolutely no mercy from the public.

    Yet another violent young man, I bet he's a heavy habitual marijuana user and has a long history of mind-altering SSRI drug use.

    We've just come through a period when every school was pushing psychotropic drugs on any males that were more difficult to handle in the classroom than unpenised girls.

    If there is a connection between young men, marijuana use, prescribed psychotropic drugs use, SSRI or antidepressants and these mass shooters, shouldn't that inform any developing Red Flag laws, and if so, shouldn't that also bar military, police and armed security service?

    "Eric Harris, the columbine killer was on Zoloft and Luvox. A year earlier, a 15-year-old called Kip Kinkel shot his parents and dozens of classmates. He was on Prozac. In 2005, a 16-year-old called Jeff Weise killed his grandfather and ten kids in Minnesota. He was on Prozac, too. So was 27-year-old Steven Kazmierczak who murdered six people at Northern Illinois University. In 2012, 25-year-old James Holmes walked into a movie theater and shot 82 people. He was on Zoloft."

    "The list goes on and on and on and on. It includes the shooter at the Washington Navy Yard in 2013, 34-year-old Aaron Alexis. It also includes Dylan Roof, the 21-year-old who shot up the church in Charleston. He was taking SSRIs."

    "The Journal of Political Psychology once assembled a list of dozens more mass killings, all committed by young men on prescription drugs. So, is there a connection? Well, we don't know definitively. We do know there are a whole lot more of these drugs being taken by kids than ever before and by the entire population. Between 1991 and 2018, total SSRI prescriptions in the United States rose by more than 3,000%. 3,000%!"

    "3,000%. This change was to make Americans calmer, saner, happier. Take these drugs and your problems will go away. Yes, you will become numb. You will lose part of yourself. You no longer experience deep joy. You'll become part robot, but at least you won't want to kill yourself or harm other people. That was the promise."

    "3,000%. Did it work? Over the very same period, the suicide rate in the United States jumped by 35%. Millions of people got on anti-suicide drugs and we wound up with many more suicides. Mass shootings also increased dramatically over the very same period."

    "We know that SSRIs are dangerous. It says so right on the label. They increase "the risk of anxiety, agitation, irritability, hostility, aggressiveness, impulsivity and mania." According to one meta study by the FDA, young people who've been prescribed SSRI have an increased rate of suicide."

    I'm unfamiliar with "America's DP"...what is that? Directors of Photography, or double penetrated?

    Urban hell holes seem to exist in Red States too, so I don't know what travel trauma you've had that would warrant such a blanket description.

    But you appear to be under some distorted vision of Americans' right to concealed firearms. For most of America's history, concealed weapons within town borders was frowned upon. Even the infamous Dodge City of the western era required travelers to hand in their guns at the sheriff's office until they left Dodge.

    Kamala Harris' Statement On The Highland Park Shooting Has Everyone Saying The Same Thing (msn.com)
    Perhaps Vice-President Harris may have had a few right ideas but there wasn't of interest for the grieving families that had lost their loved ones. Harris was right about it being senseless. There must have been some motive to this and a reason to go along with this. We've seen too many killings and this has to stop. Robert Crimeo I don't think is sorry for what he did. In fact, he isn't sorry at all. This was intentional and he'd do it again, again and again. His reward will be life imprisonment. That all I'm going to say on this matter for now.

    They have an election to win! Nevermind that Biden's agenda has been rejected by the majority in the polls.
    So they toss **** at the wall and hope it sticks. It just makes them look desperate, as you said.
