Clearly, citizen heroes now need to open carry RPGs to thwart future attacks and help us feel safer.
Nope. It was an act of pure white NRA ideology and just “watering the tree of liberty”.
“Pure evil” is a great linguistic construct. By assigning it, you don’t have to give any further thought to motivations, circumstances, what might cause a person to act out in such an appalling way, how society might have facilitated that acting out. How a somewhat different society, a different set of circumstances, might not have produced such a terrible outcome. How we might change our society, change the circumstances our people live in, to reduce the frequency with which such events will happen in the future.
'Cuz it’s, like, evil, man.
(Trump by no means invented this one. It’s been with us since at least 1946.)
That was like listening to Jay-Z in slow motion with all the rests and stops.
No. You don’t get to blame God or Satan. The carnage was predictable. Perhaps not the location or the precise body count. Now what are you going to do to mitigate this fully predictable barbarism?
They will ban outdoor concerts
Assault rifles NEVER
I think the speech writer should be allowed to deliver the address
Do your job, DOTUS.
No, Trump’s parents conceiving him was an act of pure evil … I’d wager that most Americans won’t be turning to him today to help make sense of this. He’s just reading what someone else wrote. I also suspect that he wishes the shooting had happened sooner so he could have dedicated the President’s Cup golf trophy to the Las Vegas victims.
Says the guy who in February signed the bill allowing mentally ill individuals to buy weapons, no questions asked.
Words are meaningless. The people of Las Vegas, this country…the world demand a golf trophy be dedicated to the victims. Mr. President, the world is watching.
Nevada’s gun laws are pure evil!
And I wonder what type of ammo he used Frag? Armor piercing?
You know he just dances to his own beat. There are some people who don’t even know as yet if their loved ones are living or how badly they’re injured some people have an even been contacted and he’s out there doing his thing. He’s the most on believable person on the face of this earth.
I defy anyone to define “evil” with any precision. It usually seems to be applied to acts which cause death and suffering, but there are a lot of those we excuse for various reasons.
Was the bombing of Baghdad in April 2003 an evil act? It killed and maimed thousands more than any serial killer or terrorist ever could. And it was in retaliation for - what, exactly?
Speaking of pure evil, mass death and planned attacks!
After all the self inflicted scandals this year, I’ve been dreading what would happen if this administration had to deal with a real problem. We now see that nothing will be done.
Huckabee-Sanders is going to be dancing like a marionette on strings this week.
When he started quoting scripture, I gagged. I also noted that he thanked the first responders - you know, the people he used to justify his outrage at those “take a knee” people [read: black men] before he bothered to offer his bullshit thoughts and prayers for the victims.
