“The great replacement”?
What is wrong with these cowards?
@CrayLuv take that gun from him and then what would you call him??
@Captain Obvious you’re mentally ill and not even worth dignifying with a response you lunatic. Just driving it home w/ the caps I see….
The great replacement theory originates from Nazi propaganda, later “recycled” by the far right wing party in Europe…total BS for the sole purpose of making people scared …same applies to pushing US citizen to purchase more firearms
They work for three letter agencies … bosses are sociopaths
Hispanic Invation of Texas? When Texas was annexed from Mexico in 1840s, 100% of the state’s population was Hispanic!
Damien INSANE-O America is a white country ????? Since when???? Your ridiculous.
Shou-Chien Shih will still be garbage state, run by garbage.
Invation? Que? Cabrone
@Tony Garza stolen is what the weak cowardly side calls it.
Trump is going to deny his rhetoric has anything to do with it, pretend to have sympathy for the victims, and continue the same racist speech as always.
@In Season why what was so notable about that speech?
Damien INSANE-O Explain how Frank is a racist. Define racism.
ye ye s orange man bad so bad super bad an also orange
The color of a person’s skin…hated because of being “sunkissed”.
@-Ultraviolence – lmao! How is that even a thing?
Garrett Kelsey well if you compare your pfp to the other shooter faces. Iβm sure you would fit right in. I mean come on you have all the features.
ye ye s yes orange man bad super bad really really bad I mean bad ..an also orange
I don like no stinking orange poeple
Every gunner owner should have to go through 2 months of therapy before hand.
@Ruben Gonzalez IT’S AN AMENDMENT, IT CAN BE REMOVED AND IT SHOULD BE REMOVED. YOU CRETINS CANT BE TRUSTED WITH GUNS.
@ABC 789 YOU’RE PART OF THE PROBLEM
Sounds like something we can actually accomplish. Unlike some that just want to take the guns away
My prayers to the families of the victims. BAN ASSAULT WEAPONS AND IMPEACH TRUMP.
Not happening. Neither one.
@joe Domjan explain to me how Trump is linked to this.
Went to Walmart this morning. As I was leaving, a crazed looking old white guy wearing a Trump shirt walked into the store. I was so afraid he was going to start shooting. Trump nuts are everywhere!
Yea. But he had the label/tshirt. At least anger is labeled.
Registered dnc member, shot up both places, side note, 95 percent of blacks shot, are shot by dnc members.
But if you said a couple black guys dressed as thugs walked in you would be labeled in every way…..
I am sickened by what is happening in our country with mass shootings. Regardless of the motive, this needs to stop.
@some guy The only real thing to do is start hunting nazis, We’re under attack and they won’t stop until someone stops them.
@Kip McEwen You still got some work to do on your English skills comrade.
@Tom Towers Not more or less than yourself, comrade.
motive matters.
Dismantle the FBI ……that will stop it temporarily …..until another agency takes over false flag duties.
These white nationalists are no different than ISIS and Alqaeda, and they should be treated as such.
David J they were leftist democrats and Antifa members Dimwit!
Damien INSANE-O I know they all say this nasty hate political stuff. When seriously they are the ones that create this divide
Captain Diggler basically a hate speech
This shows how stupid liberals are with ISIS and that terror is political rule. This white nationalist global warming thing you are starting is following this liberal hatred of the country.
Terrible human beings, πΉTrumpf and his Red Cap Racist KKKlan.
Mick Mulaney enabler tooβπΉ
Liberal immigration policies are to blame.
@Michael Dominick , right, and native Indians and old Mexico natives should have stopped the Europeans from ruining their territory.
DNC registered shooter, and 95 percent of blacks shot, are shot by,,,,, dnc members,,,, you might want to look in a mirror before blaming others,,,,
The right to bear arms vs the right not be shot. Reform your gun laws America and educate your people properly so that ignorance doesn’t allow the Trumps’ of this world to come to power and preach a doctrine of intolerance and hate.
@J Juarez Childish, churlish response espousing the sort of ignorance that takes no account of the slaughter of innocents. Grow up and actually engage with what’s happening in your country or you are culpable in the deaths of victims of such dreadful massacres.
um,,, might want to reconsider that, , shooter was a dnc registered person, same with most of these shooters, just like the one in vegas (largest mass shooting), 95 percent of all blacks shot, are shot by dnc members,,,,,, you might want to look in a mirror before talking next time,,,,,,
It’s time shutdown these white nationalist websites, and it’s time to ban assault rifles.
Assault rifles have no place in any civilized society. If you allow them into a civilized society, that society will become uncivilized real quick. A weapon like that serves only one purpose, mass carnage. And that’s exactly what it was used for in El Paso, Dayton, and other incidents. And it performed exactly the way it was designed to perform. Allowing assault rifles to be sold to the public is the height of Irresponsibility.
Here is a question, what advantage does an assault have over other rifles?
Here is a question, what advantage does an assault have over other rifles?
Umm, excuse me but, can anyone define what an assault rifle is? The reports are that this wacko used an AK47. OK, I know what that is, basically a piece of junk. AK 47s are easily copied and made in many countries. In countries where gun laws are strict, mass killings go on without the use of guns. What is the difference between being shot or being poisoned with a colorless gas? Either way you get seriously hurt. What about that wacko that ran over a bunch of people with a truck? Should we ban trucks? The truth is, and I know it hurts, we have a country of freedom, but freedom has always had a price. βAnyone who gives up freedom for security, deserves neither freedom nor security.β
ζΎη°γγγγγ
All you need to know, is that they are the preferred weapon of mass shooters, because of its ability to inflict mass carnage in a short amount of time. And the 2nd amendment doesn’t give you the freedom to own any gun you want. These assault rifles were banned once before, and they should be banned again, permanently this time.
You want a rife to hunt, a pistol to protect yourself fine…but the general public should not have weapons only military and law enforcement should have. Not phucking rocket science.
They are regulated, but 630,000 are legally owned in the United States!
We don’t need permission from you, or anyone else for that matter. Several people die every day on our highways due to cell phone use…better turn YOURS in.
Shame you take their logic all the way
We should all have icbms
I did not hear. The dude had a full automatic? I thought it was only a semi-auto.
More AMERICANS were murdered in 5 days in America than any where else in on the planet as far as we know . What if some of those folks were familt members are part of Trumps Base .
@bull moose The founder of the bull moose party, Theodore Roosevelt, is the most avid gun enthusiast we have ever had as President. A hunter, sportsman and shooter, he carried a FN Model 1899 every day in office. Your name fits you ONLY because you are full of bull crap.
@bull moose FYI …..McCain was a traitor, who should have been tried in a military tribunal and executed for treason. A modern day Benedict Arnold, his misdeeds did far more damage to this country than any benefits from his military career.
@Captain Diggler well said
From now on, GOP is a terror organization
The shooter was registered dnc,,,,, and by the way, 95 percent of all blacks shot, are shot by dnc members…. might want call the dnc a terrorism org,,,, it would be more accurate.
Like the democrats terror under Obama when those mass shooters targeted school children.
#Truth!
This is sad ., they told trump that
His words will get ppl hurt
… and the lies just keep on spewing from T rump – USA’s 1st fascist racist dictator! And then there’s Moscow Mitch – T rumps favorite .itch next to Barr that is… Imho, if the current scenario does not change, expect yet another FALSELY ELECTED potus in 2020!
The trumpsoldier at Walmart killed a US ARMY veteran. Explain that nationalists? I thought traitor trump was pro vets!
