Mass Shootings in the United States - 2019 (to date)

Sweet Old Bob supports the "right" of lunatics to commit mass murder whenever they've been watching too much Fox News, or when they're fed up with life. (He doesn't understand that the Second Amendment does not grant the right to kill hundreds of people.) I would expect that when a shooter opens up in his neighborhood, he'll stand right there in the middle of the street and not run for cover. After all, it's the shooter's Second Amendment right to kill random strangers.

 

And Sweet Old Bob may not want to acknowledge that the NRA's appeal is waning because of their extremism and their culpability in dozens of mass shootings, but that's the case nonetheless.

More straw men. 

 

...the shooter is never responsible for his or her actions...it is Fox news, or Trump, or the NRA, or conservatives, but never the shooter. 

I didn't say the shooter wasn't responsible. I said that the NRA had culpability. I never said SOLE culpability.

 

To give you an explanation you obviously need, if you want to kill a bunch of people you don't like, and I give you a gun to do so, I share responsibility with you for the result.

 

And yea verily, Fox news, Trump, and conservatives share culpability for many of the recent mass shootings wherein Hispanics, Muslims, gays, etc. were targeted. Hey Bob, remember when Trump encouraged his supporters to shoot Hillary? You were properly outraged, right? Or were you turned on?

You didn't say the shooter wasn't responsible until just now. 

 

Trump "encouraged his supporters to shoot Hillary"? Making up shit doesn't make it true.

You know, and I know, that he encouraged that very thing. Denying something doesn't make it false.

 

And I did NOT say the shooter wasn't responsible. I said he wasn't SOLELY responsible.

 

In any event, Sweet Old Bob, I'm not going to engage in further discussion with someone who supports mass shootings of innocent people.
