    What? Is Biden going to call that lot in Vegas a national memorial? How about the Walmart in El Paso? The Boston street where the bomb went off? Why this place? We know why, pandering.

    And he never mentioned the religion of the shooter or that he was a jihidist who professed his“allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the Islamic State. But Biden is going to do what he's told like a good puppet.

    Biden is the virtue signaling President. That is the nature of his administration, but I will grant him that it's probably the least toxic of Typical Washington. It still means we lack the reform we as citizens have desperately been wanting for Washington.

    Well, in all fairness the victims of Las Vegas were by and large white country music fans, thus hardly a huge Democratic voting bloc....don't think of them as "deplorables", the new and improved Democratic Party considers them "disposables". But it don't bother me...skunks can't help how they smell, they were born that way.

    I agree the intent of it is pandering, but it's not a bad idea in itself.

    Biden commemorates Pride Month, names Pulse Nightclub a national memorial
    Biden signed legislation honoring the 49 people killed in the mass shooting after a gunman stormed the gay nightclub with an AR-15-style assault rifle and pistol on June 12, 2016.

    We the taxpayers will foot the bill to build the national memorial, and it's not gonna be as el cheap-o as this one in NY

    [​IMG]

    Here's a memorial that will soon be build in Sandy Hook CT, and the town residents will foot the bill. No legislature involved, so it is not a National Memorial.

    [​IMG]

    The conclusion have to make is - children are not as important to Democrats as gays.

    What the Las Vegas event, Pulse and Sandy Hook all have in common is that they were staged events.

    It is no wonder that Sleepy Joe has been instructed to declare them National Monuments. Reminiscent of Shanksville PA. They put a marble monument there to commemorate a flight that did not crash there.

    When everything the American people believe is false, we will know the success of our misinformation efforts.

    no we’re not footing the bill
    The project is estimated to cost $45 million. The new law dictates that no federal funds can be used to establish the memorial, but county and state governments, as well as various corporations, have donated millions of dollars to the project. The memorial won’t be a unit of the National Park System.

    What's better, remembering bad things that happened in the past, or remembering good things that happened in the past? Should our strategy for the future be to remember how not to behave, or to remember how to behave?

    Fair enough. Though I do think that the nation spends far too much time on one than the other.

    Most memorials and monuments are for positives. If anything we sweep too much bad under the rug and end up repeating mistakes we forget.

    I guess the Pandemic is indeed considered a "staged event" when these same Right Republicans can think the slaughter of children, wholesale shooting of automatic weapons, and individual killers cutting down young people at a party club.

    Much of these events have been televised by multiple sources. There are 600,000 graves from COVID.

    Yet these enemies of America still claim all legitimate medical authorities, policemen, and FBI are supposedly ALL faking reality.

    Indeed, the crazies do know the success of their misinformation efforts. Trump, Qanon, rabid antivax losers and White Supremacists enjoy the lost people they manage to recruit, but I am happy so many of the young people see through their false claims.

    Whoa... you're all over the map, so lemmi do a bit of it myself - Omar Mateen, a gentleman who killed all those gay people was a devout Muslim who pledged an allegiance to ISIS.

    This National Memorial should, among everything else, mention that all those people who died in Pulse nightclub, died fighting Islamic radical terrorism and bigotry.

    No, not privately. Public and private money with taxpayers footing at least some costs.

    Just go up 14 posts.

    Along with his insistence that COVID is a hoax, the Sandy Cook slaughter, the Pulse Nightclub slaughter and the Los Vegas Country Music slaughter are all hoaxes too!

    As far as I am concerned there should br a national monument to every mass shooting in America and it should read “The NRA was responsible at least in part for this tragedy”

    What about the religion of peace, do they get any credit?
