    This is what you wanted, conservatives. No sense in hiding the cheers you know you want to do. So come on now….

    Let it out. Show us you’re not afraid to be called the racist pieces of shit that you are.

    Otherwise- start openly standing against this shit for a change.

        The only people who want this are the most fascist politicians like Marjorie Taylor Greene. and pundit Tucker Carlson. Stochastic terrorism is a very niche career! But I can excuse other American voters from reaponsibility for this shit, yeah.

        I didn’t say it was wanted- I said it’s not cared about if their right to fuck their guns is threatened.

            Do you honestly think I meant that conservatives WANT dead children? It’s implied that they want lax gun laws- and this is a RESULT of what they wanted.

            Form now on, I’ll do better to underestimate people’s ability to decipher meaning from context.

              You didn’t even use the word “gun”, and then just called them racist.

              So you want people to just ignore the hateful stuff you actually write and imagine some other meaning?

                Dude; you’re all over the place here with creating your little strawmen. They’re shit strawmen, but recognizable nonetheless, so…

                I’m going to just go ahead and ignore you from this point forward as you have nothing meaningful to add to the discussion.

                  I’m responding to exactly what you said. If anything it’s you bringing out the strawmen

        What’s disgusting is the lack of support from the right to stop this from happening. The predictable silence from those that think a few dead children is worth the price for their rights.

        And political points? Are you serious? Seems more like a projection on your part than an accusation, as you’d need to know me before you made such a stupid assumption. And if you did- you would have made it.

        What politics?

        Conservatives say black people riot and cause problems for everyone. People do things in reaction to that. That’s not politics, that’s cause and effect.

        What the fuck is wrong with you? People die and you decided to defend those that did the shooting rather than the victims. Even if you are a troll there is something deeply wrong with you.

    I grew up in Miami. The first rime I saw a confederate flag outside of a textbook was driving up to DC when we stopped to get food in Jacksonville. This was in the mid 90s.

    hopefully the FBI can figure out what insane online groups this guy might have been a part of & whether he was a copycat shooter.

      Would be crazy if they said “yeah we found the online communities that are radicalising terrorists, and here’s a list of subreddits / twitter handles / tv stations we’re investigating for people who might have encouraged the shooter”
