Makes you wonder.
Big difference is I have no access to guns.
There will be another mass shooting in the USA soon. And a white USA policeman will shoot an unarmed black guy.
Trump is mad.....

Christians who Kill
Trump has asserted that this was not a 'guns situation', no, once again it was ' a very deranged individual with a lot of problems over a very long period of time'
(so how could he get hold of guns then? This is a guy court martialled and given a bad conduct discharge for violence against his wife and child, apparently this is no impediment to his constitutional right to tool up - he had no problem at all legally acquiring 4 guns).
*It wasn't a 'guns issue', but :
somebody else had a gun that was shooting in the opposite direction, otherwise it wouldn’t have been as bad as it was, it would have been much worse.
The answer is clear: an M1 semi-automatic behind every altar. I reckin that's just what Jesus meant to say ….Trump’s defence of the retaliatory use of use of guns echoed comments made earlier by the Texas attorney general. American churches should be “arming some of the parishioners” or hiring “professional security”, Republican Ken Paxton*told Fox News in an interview hours after the shootings*at Sutherland Springs First Baptist Church. “It’s going to happen again.”
If more churchgoers were armed “there’s always the opportunity that the gunman will be taken out before he has the opportunity to kill very many people”, Paxton said.
The Texas governor, Greg Abbott, said on Sunday: “There are so many families who have lost family members, and it occurred in a church, in a place of worship. That’s where these people were mown down. We mourn their loss.”
Two years ago, Abbott lamented that the state’s population were not buying enough guns. “I’m EMBARRASSED: Texas #2 in nation for new gun purchases, behind CALIFORNIA. Let’s pick up the pace Texans @NRA,”*he tweeted*in October 2015.Last edited by pjclarke; 6 November 2017, 20:03.

Saw one on face book claiming it was another leftie attack on democracy and linked to the "attempted assassination" of Rep.

When I go over to Vegas it's surprising how much of this type of stuff you hear at the poker tables. What's strange is how some of the others will actually engage the person making these outlandish claims in serious conversation over it. Obviously the majority will roll their eyes and attempt to bust him out to get rid. Still surprising how 'acceptable' it appears to be to make these statements and actually enter in to a discussion about it.Originally posted by stek View PostYank guy just posted this on an unrelated forum about the latest shooting;

The report on the BBC says a citizen engaged the perp causing him to flee. Perp later found dead having crashed his car.Originally posted by WTFH View Post20+ killed in a mass shooting in Texas.

I wonder what the US law stance will be if it's found the citizen killed the perp? The argument for citizens to be armed is for just such a situation so will be interesting to see if the citizen is seen as a hero and not charged. I expect the NRA will be out in glee at their policy working.

But isn't that the point of General? A safe space where cretins can abuse sexual harassment victims and spout their bile without being troubled by you know what.

That is obviously a euphemism. I have little doubt you are proficient at "handling your weapon".Originally posted by vwdan View PostI've spent a good amount of time doing live firing
Now you have gone and made sas all excited too. He is still dealing with failing the medical for the Brownies too. Bless.

Yes, it's remarkable, except for the fact that the number of US citizens put on opiates is staggering due to them not being able to afford the appropriate healthcare to have their conditions treated, instead they can get the pills cheaply (or prescribed cheaply) and they never get cured.Originally posted by OwlHoot View Post
But staggeringly, more than 300,000 US citizens die prematurely each year of opiate overdoses!
No wonder Trump declared it a national health emergency, or whatever he called it.

Oooooohhh you've had it now. He'll be frothing at the mouth.Originally posted by vwdan View PostIn very casual conversation by the uneducated, perhaps, but you know as well as I do that they are most definitely not interchangeable. If you're going to pedantic and sexist then maybe you should be more careful not to make a twat of yourself?
Incidentally, I've not served with the British Army, no - but I've spent a good amount of time doing live firing and it was always drilled into me what was what. *shrug* But then I've always assumed you were in a fairly special section anyway.
SB's biggest achievement in his life was being accepted into the Catering Corps.
He's inordinately proud of it.
