Other State Active shooter in Texas

[GWS]

So you are say turn all of the law abiding citizens guns now in the United States? That's what it sounds like to me. The fault lies with the Texas Legislator allowing property owners to post signs on the mall that it is a gun free zone. In Texas if the signs use the correct font signs have the force of law behind them.

NO!
The fault lies with the maggot and only the maggot. Little boy who couldn't cope had to take his anger at having a tiny winkie or getting turned down by the hot chick or being generally stupid and weak, out on innocent people.
The fault is his and only his.

and @arakboss was only quoting the latest blather for the anti-gun opportunists

Theres some reports coming from other people that the social media presence of the murderer was being scrubbed and edited to paint him as a right winger in real time.. as well as unconfirmed reports that the Antifa had publicly posted up to 4 days ago plans to show up in El Paso, and do something, andTwitter is attempting to quash any and all instances related to the Antifa/El Paso connections
Things that make you go hmmm

....The event is being spun a certain way in the media though and even I, one the token liberals on this site, can see....

Really nothing new there. I've watched that for years. Especially when it comes to guns. I no longer consider them "news", just propaganda.
Their saying anything is pretty much prima facie evidence of it being a lie or at minimum a distortion.

I think it was Mark Twain who observed "if you don't read the newspapers, you'll be uninformed. If you do read the newspapers, you'll be misinformed."

All you Trump supporters have my empathy for the undeserved bubblegum you're about to receive.

I'm more worried about 2A supporters.

Hard to believe that there was not at least one CHL in a WalMart, in TEXAS.

Meanwhile in Chicago Chicago Crime 2019 | Chicago Murder, Crime & Mayhem | HeyJackass!

Meh... Thats a pretty tired cliche these days.... Texas aint what it used to be and never will again. Every day more and more liberals move there.

El Paso is a joke too. Its a cesspool of liberalism where Clinton won with 70% and that fool Beto won with 85%... There is little sympathy for the Constitution there and I doubt there were many around who were armed, if any.

We are a dying breed... and these dickheads are a product of this transitioning society.

This dip weed should be publicly drawn and quartered, even that may be too good for him. Timing is suspicious, wasn't there some kind of federal gun control introduced recently?

Many great posts here, many filled with truth. Folks, we have a mental health crisis in America and neither political party is addressing it. We need to bring pressure to them now, in light of this incident. It's not about gun control, we as a nation must demand something be done about the crazies amongst us. It must be addressed, now!

Prayers and thoughts to those who lost loved ones in this tragedy, our have kin that was wounded. Pray for Gods strength and blessings to be upon them...

Let us refrain from naming and giving publicity on this forum to these fame seekers. We know that when they are recovered by Law Enforcement that it's not for some personal issue, it's to seek fame.

Northwest Firearms is not their shrine.

Earlier comments were edited to remove the name of (if it's correct or incorrect) of the murderer.

Whatever turns your crank... but I seriously doubt that these asshats are in it for their 15 minutes of fame.

There are deeper issues here besides access to guns and glory seeking.

Thoughts to ponder from an email I received from a friend:

How to make the perfect false flag (like this el paso story)
1. shooter must be white- check.
2. shooter must be young male- check.
3. shooter must like trump- check.
4. shooter must be racist- check.
5. shooter must use civilian type semi-auto rifle that the media will label as "assault weapon" and "military weapon of war"- check.
6. far left politicians will immediately use this to say this proves that all semi-autos must be banned- check.
7. multiple witnesses say there were multiple shooters, but police say the 46 casualties were caused by one 21 year old punk- check.
am i missing anything??

Allegedly the live news had one of the police officers involved claiming "gang related shooting". Of course that got scrubbed within hours.

everything about this fits anti gunners narrative

o

It all fits the narrative perfectly. Perhaps too perfectly?
What's missing is we have no way of knowing if ANY of that is true.

just like las vegas... sandy hook....etc.

 

[CamoDeafie]

Remember when media and FBI Behavorial experts swore up and down that the Beltway shooters had to be white men, in a van?

I think the real conspiracy here isnt the shooting or that its a false flag or that he was really antifa and the MSM is painting him as a righty, etc...

The real issue is what our society has become and what it is doing to young people, especially young men. The way they are raised, educated, entertained, etc...
Add in a little bit of mental illness or instability to that mix and you have trouble.

This doesnt only manifest itself in mass shootings, but in drop out rates, unemployment rates, depression, addiction to drugs and internet/gaming, failed relationships or the rise of the "incel", lower rates of marriage, etc.

This is an extreme result of the societal and cultural decay in America. These incidents as terrible as they are... are only the tip of the iceberg.

In many ways, we have created these monsters and then set them loose upon ourselves.

Mall full of mom's and kids shopping for back to school.
Guy walks across the parking lot .
Carrying a AK with ear protection on.
And nobody engaged him.
Because why .
Because Mom doesn't carry a gun.
Dad is at home .
Watching on TV.
Wishing he would have told Mom to start carrying a gun and take a class on how to use it.

It's Texas and WalMart, the most gun friendly state and the largest seller of firearms and ammunition by volume in America.

Everyone here is falling over backwards explaining this one away when the answer is right in front of you. What do the New Zealand shooter and this one have in common?

I take issue with the assertion that Texas is the most gun friendly State in the "Union".... Open Carry had long been illegal in the State of Texas up until 2015, and even then, still requires license. Unlike say... Wyoming... Vermont, Alaska, recently Idaho, few other States with Constitutional Carry laws...

Also; there's practically no "public lands" in Texas that one can hunt or fish or camp on.... to the best of my knowledge?

El Paso is Solid Blue. More than half the interviewees spoke no English.

So what do the New Zealand shooter and this one have in common?

There is supposedly a "manifesto" attributed to him posted online somewhere that rails against immigrants, globalization, etc as well as praising the NZ shooter.

I havent seen it and I dont think it has been confirmed as his yet... but I suspect that it will be the case no matter what.

 

[Nick Burkhardt]

Oh yeah, supposedly he posted it on 8Chan, which is twice as racist as 4chan according to the News Media.
