No, let's ban hate altogether. We can also ban violence, but that will hardly be needed once there is no more hate in this world. Man, why didn't someone think of this sooner. Surely if the law says we can't feel hatred, then it will just magically go away.

Of course, 99% of all political ads will have to be reworked to talk about a candidate's strengths instead of their opponents weaknesses, but all that rework will be good for the economy, right?

as soon as i heard that it was a rifle (sounded semi auto) i knew today would be an immediate push to ban them before anyone even has the facts of the case and who the shooters were or how the weapons were acquired. for all we know they came from mexico via fast and furious, no one knows anything yet.

Obviously open carry was the main reason this shooting happened. There is no way the shooter could have pulled this off if he had to keep his rifle concealed.....

Do they realize that the suspect expressed sympathy for BLM and hatred of white people (white cops in particular) according to police? Are they going to push for a ban on gun sales to folks with BLM affiliations? Of course they aren't. But that would be the response if this was someone sympathetic to certain other radical groups.

I am prepared for a AWB push. I am thinking about getting even more prepared, but might need a new safe to do that. My current one is getting pretty full.
