I think Charlie says it best and I feel the same. [video=youtube;R1lW044MFcI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1lW044MFcI[/video]
It would be hard for her to use it as an argument for gun control when the head of her party provided semi-automatic weapons to Mexican criminals; 1 being used to kill an American Border Patrol Agent.
The fact that the guy armed up with guns and ammo in the last 60 days through completely legal means really sucks for conservatives. The gun control folks are chomping at the bit on this around here.
Just saw this post on twitter. Thoughts? "If James Holmes was Arab, the shooting would be 'terrorism'. If he was Black, he'd be a 'thug'. But he's White, so it's a 'mental illness'."
Rick Warren thinks I am responsible for the shooting: Rick Warren: The Teaching of Evolution is to Blame for the Colorado Shooting My bad guys. I wonder if any Christians will rebuke him for this? I wonder if a Presidential candidate will stop courting him for favor? Of course not.
That's just typical garbage that, unfortunately, lots of people agree with. To me, to actually buy into something as dumb as that, you'd have to be nearly brainwashed. I've seen smart people say shit like that. It's kind of scary.
I'll be honest, I think most people think terrorism when you hear of an Arab guy committing mass violence in America. With other races, I think we all lean toward mental illness. This isn't the behavior of a thug. Thugs are bad guys that look out for themselves. There is no personal gain in shooting up a movie theater.
not many black dudes commit these type of acts. It's almost solely white loners and extremist Muslims.
