No, there is only one side that has shown all that. They have shown they care about one right wing YouTuber getting killed more than all that.

I said we’ve shown all that “as a society.”

Dems have been ineffective at making a case. They’ve been ineffective at playing the game that has put us in this mess. Just as with many other issues, Dems have talked the talked but haven’t walked the walk.

Not sure what Dems are supposed to do when Pubs don't care and have control of Congress, which is in part because of gerrymandering by the Pubs. The both sides are to blame stuff is bull.

The Southport shooter's Facebook page is full of examples of his mental illness with lots of court cases he has tried to file that are full of paranoia and conspiracy theories. One of them is for suing Kellie Pickler for trying to poison him as part of a white supremacists pedophile plan laid out in his social security number, and something about the LGBTQ community trying to kill him in sync with Bin Ladin in Iraq.

And after looking at his Facebook page it is easy to see there is now way this guy should have been able to have any guns. But somehow he had an assault rifle, of course, to commit the shooting.
 






[The Trump Vance sign is above a Stop Sign, so could be anti-Trump or an easy spot to stick the sign. Sounds like he had a broken relationship with his mom and had a grudge against the VA]

“… Sanford, a US Marine veteran, according to his mom’s Facebook page, rammed his Chevy Silverado truck into the building before unleashing the assault on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, armed with a semi-automatic rifle.

… Cops said there were hundreds of worshippers inside when the attack began, and that an unknown number of victims could be found inside once the building is safe to enter after a massive blaze consumed nearly the entire building, aerial footage showing an enormous plume of choking black smoke rising up from the structure….”

Setting aside the obvious lack of political value, we have so many mass shootings now the POTUS doesn’t have time to comment on most of them.

With this President, there could be multiples of the number of mass shootings we have now and he’d be online enough to comment on all of them. Trump not commenting on a shooting is a choice, not due to time constraints.

That has been repeated often here and at ZZLP when posters trying to take a shot at me and I have never answered as I will now. We are a county with 7O percent POC, lots of poverty, the effects of Jim Crow etc. Obviously crime is an issue because it's attached poverty. So, yea, sad place but it seems to garner scorn not sympathy. I've worked in many ways to make this place better.

What else is there to do?

We’ve shown that as a society we don’t really give a shit about addressing gun violence. We don’t give a shit about addressing underlying causes like poverty or mental health. We don’t give a shit about kids getting shot in schools or people getting shot at concerts or at church.

We. Don’t. Care.

So what’s left but to toss out a few jibes at “the other side” and go on about out lives until the next tragedy happens?
