It has happened again.

So when it comes out this was a transgender will they ban TRANSGENDERS?

Well, you called it.

Propaganda media is the true culprit.

Propaganda media causes school shootings?

Too broad a rant. Nobody is actually calling for the banning of all guns - just the most frequently used ones in mass shootings. So now, which alcohol do you want to ban? Might I suggest working on your rant a bit more before clinging to it and thinking it's the pov of genius? 

They are calling for the banning of guns that they claim are most often used in mass shootings - but those *aren't* the so-called "assault weapons," nor are they long guns in general.  In multiple victim shootings, a handgun is used most often.  Long guns are used in about 3% of all murders in the US.  For that matter, mass shootings themselves represent less than 5% of all murders in the United States (2020 statistics because they popped up first -see https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2022/02/03/what-the-data-says-about-gun-deaths-in-the-u-s/).

Of course, there was an organization out to ban handguns when I was younger - it was called Handgun Control, Inc.  It changed its name and is now the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.

There's really no point in arguing with that guy.

Regulating guns is clearly stated, -tt-.

I mean it even says well-regulated. This thread should be entered into the Slippery Slope Hall of Fame.

And we all know they meant “Bear” arms… as in you kill a bear, you keep its arms. Family guy was pretty clear on this.

Don't make this about me, -tt-. Stick to your guns but make a decent argument.

What militia units do gun owners report to?

What militia units do gun owners report to?

Could be 'Billy Bob's hold mah beer and watch out fer the guvment detachment eleven-fourst.'

Could be 'Billy Bob's hold mah beer and watch out fer the guvment detachment eleven-fourst.'

Only for as long as Billy agrees to be well-regulated. That part seems to get left out a lot.

Propaganda media causes school shootings?

When they constantly use rhetoric about how racist, misogynistic, nazist, fascist (but not communist), xenophobic, transphopic, on and on and on. Then eventually you are going to have emotionally charged people do something stupid. They are also pushing the anti AR narrative which goes right into their narrative "how many more children have to die" rhetoric which sounds like more of a threat.

Nope, the identity of the shooter and then eventually the story will disappear from the main news because the shooter doesn't fit the narrative of what certain groups are claiming on why there is so much gun violence
