    Iran has a terrible history with crowd control. This is clearly a police and civil administrative error of underestimating and improper managing of the crowds. This has happened in the past and they certainly have not learned their lessons.

    I didn’t deny it.
    Do you deny that these people viewed him with a vastly different worldview, and in their eyes they weren’t mourning a terrorist?

    I think it makes me capable of empathy. A skill you clearly lack.

    As ye sow so shall you reap.

    What we call Christians hope that is BS.

    Blessed are the peace makers. Of course what Christ actually taught is ignored by people who call themselves Christian. You can also tell what kind of tree you are looking at by the kind of fruit it produces.

    Both left wing and right wing beliefs are fast tracks to hell. Both put mammon above people and the right wing despise the poor that Christ embraced while worshipping the rich.

    Wont be many people in heaven. And the ones who will be there will be the poor. I dont say this but Christ said it.

    All that I did to get this idea was to read the red script in the KJV of the gospels. Unless of course Christ was a lying bastard .

    Blessed are the peace makers. Yup, blessed are those who seek to reconcile people together. He's talking to individuals. This is about personal behavior, not politics..

    Reaping what you sow is not the same as karma, however it's relatively close but lacks the eternal aspect.

    Yes you can tell a tree by it's fruit, why i am desperately anti socialist.

    Every thing but trusting Jesus is a fast track to Hell.

    The right wing does not despise the poor.
    That's simply untrue.

    Christ said no such thing about the poor being the only ones in Heaven. Though it is harder for a rich person.

    You did much more than read the red words. You twisted them to promote your agenda. You got the idea from Satan.

    If Karma was real we'd all be dead.

    I get that people who sympathize with mass murderers and their supporters need to get their moral compasses fixed, and so do you.

    Mass murderers and terrorist sympathizers don't deserve my empathy.

    Karma only kills you if you got away with murder:) I personally have never broken any laws worse than speeding, or did anything where death would be a legit punishment. I don’t know about you.

    Celebrating a mass murderer isnt worth dying over but it’s close.

    I see you avoided my question ---- would you be equally sympathetic if Klan members were sad because their Klan leader was killed?

    If the "average Iranian citizen" was supportive of Soleimani, then that reflects poorly on them, and makes it harder to have sympathy for them.

    Did you feel badly for the terrorists who died (killed themselves) crashing planes on 9/11?

    Yeah they've been raised from early to hate infidels, western values and freedom. There value system probably placed little value on the many persons Soleimani has slaughtered. And with their government not allowing freedom of press the impression they would receive of Soleimani would be controlled by the state media. There are many however within Iran who reject the oppressive and evil government and these trampled are not among them. I would prefer they see the light but I'm sure you appreciate how it is difficult for some to feel sympathy for persons who are chanting death to America and promoting world-wide terror.

    And they say no one "needs" an AR 15. Wish the same people could go hunt those with a single shot or even bolt action!

    Sounders can number in the hundreds. Only one I ever shot was with my cap n ball revolver, but there were only 2. The other ran off, it could have easily charged me, instead. AR 15s are great for thinning the herd. PS, I bet your cousins were in a tree stand.

    It doesn't count for people who are not Buddhist or Hindu.
