Arizona, huh? Maybe he should think about running for the Senate.

Since you are pushing, you might look up Audrey Hale. He/she was a transgender individual with some serious mental issues. Transgender people tend to lean more to the Democrat side.
Lots of finding out happening lately. Like the longest sentence yet for a Jan 6 insurrectionist.
And the Oath Keepers looking to break that record en masse.
Enrique Tarrio might need a fresh pair of pants after that news.
âIt would be very nice if you could and would back up your claims with some evidence.â
Does that answer your question? What do these people have in common?
They were all able to get extremely destructive weapons far too easily.

Anything else they have in common? Maybe being non binary or transgender? Which political party is the most receptive to that idea? Banning guns will be of no help. Anyone who has mental problems and intends on doing harm to people will do so whether it is illegal or not. Do you think they care if something is illegal if they want to kill people?
This is so ignorant. There are angry people with mental health issues all over the world, likely in the same percentages as in the US, yet here, we basically give them weapons of war.
And your foray into transgender killers is also ignorant: both selecting out people from an unstated numerical population (is this a large % of killers, small %, or do you even have a clue), and then assuming theyâre all Democrats.
What the LITERAL FUCK does gender or party affiliation have to do with this? Why do you keep banging that drum? Itâs idiotic.
It seems that nobody wants to do anything unless itâs an immediate, 100% solution. Thatâs never going to happen, and itâs why we stay stuck in this tragic situation. The âcriminals wonât follow lawsâ trope is tired and hackneyed. We need stiff penalties for those who obtain guns illegally AND for those who abet them. That probably wonât fix anything immediately, but over the course of years (unfortunately) it will make it harder for people who shouldnât have guns to get them. If Republicans have a hard-on for minimum sentences, they can start with straw gun sales. And we should have chain-of-custody records for all weapons deemed to be sufficiently dangerous for such record-keeping. Iâd start with all semi- and fully-automatic weapons.
Want to buy a handgun for self-defense? No change. Want to buy a shotgun or hunting rifle? No change. Want to buy an AR-15? Youâd better be able to show us that youâre 21, not a felon, not under some sort of restraining order or mental health order, AND that the seller is clean (and, transitively, that the seller himself obtained it from a legit seller, all the way back to the manufacturer). Anybody who buys a restricted weapon without a clean history gets locked for a long time, and so does the seller. Letâs cut down the population of sketchy sellers.

Semi-automatic rifles have been banned before, and the world didnât end.
Thereâs a lot to debate about guns, but we should at least be able to deal with the low-hanging fruit.
In 2014, The Onion first ran itâs famous headline âNo Way to Prevent This,â Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens" in response to a mass shooting.
This is the 34th edition of that article:

The whole 21-year-old thing makes me question just how smart the Republican strategists really are. Multiple polls indicate between 70% and 80% support for restricting sales of AR-15-style guns to those 21 and older. Proposing such a restriction would affect a vanishingly small number of their supporters and would give them a trump card in future discussions: âHey, look, we made a concession; what are you willing to do?â (Added plus: it might actually do some good, although I doubt thatâs high on their list of goals.) Why not take such an obvious win? I donât get it. I assume it must be the mindset that says any concession will open the floodgates to others.

Except the Republican definition of âcompromiseâ is âdoing things the way we say toâ.

What I posted are facts. I was asked to cite proof for my statement so I did. I canât help if you donât like the facts.
Theyâre craven, so they will tie this to raising the voting age to 21 and then - when Democrats kill it - they will make hay on that.

I am not so sure you are a fair representation of what it means to be republican. For the last 30 years, my world has been completely full of church-going, republican-voting conservatives. Measured in the thousands. The vast majority of them, like 80%, love on and respect non-binary and transgendered people. Just as Christ did. Regardless of what the screeching baboons that fill the airwaves with divisive hate preach to the slimy underbelly of the party.

On his profile, he posted photos of himself showing off his Nazi tattoos, and a number of photos of the mall that he chose for his massacre.
Not surprising, right?
