Give it a rest dude, no one thinks that.

"Thoughts and Prayers" ™

good ol' 8chan/4chan BS...

will Fox ever acknowledge that white supremacist groups are responsible for the vast majority of terrorist attacks since 9/11? doubt it...

Trump will undoubtedly use this as his dog whistle to his braying base in the days to come - guarantee he'll jedi mind trick his base into blaming the Dems for this...

If there is a god, I'm pretty sure that the politician's offering thoughts and prayers aren't going to like his response when they could have done something instead of empty prayers.


I'm disgusted that this kind of garbage just keeps happening and we get thoughts and prayers.

Happens all the time, there's a group in here that can't wait to show that domestic white terrorism is worst than Islamic terrorism.

Someday, maybe it will be just pathetic terrorism

You're right, We've had presidents of all different stripes and they've done shyte. You want change. Have the President's family shot up or a mass murder of Senators or Congressmen and you might see some minor change.


The system is too corrupt, too owned by corporate entities, too owned by lobbying groups and the money that they can throw around.


At this point, maybe the solution is for the government to buy everyone a gun and announce a annual purge.

Well, America needs to be introspective here a bit instead of the useless, “don’t blame guns” routine. No other country experiences this at the same magnitude or regularity.

...the “attack is a response to the Hispanic invasion of Texas.”

All that was missing the "make america great again" Trump special hat

He lives in a city called El Paso. I am pretty sure that isn't an English name.
Who invaded whom?

I get your point but this guy lives in Allen (near Dallas)

If he knew history he would see it was the Spanish Conquistador's that started Texas, so yes he as a white guy is the invader

Another mass shooting.

This time, in Ohio.

Another 9 dead.

Time to dig out those thoughts and prayers out again.

Is it too late to offer thoughts and/or prayers for the last one?

No just do what the controlling senate will do and put them all in one tin hat.

I'm not even talking about here, I'm talking about the US. They are way more concerned with Islamic terrorism than they are this sort of thing. That is obvious. Get your head out of the sand.

[TheScorpion]

Oh, America: the only nation with more guns than people, more shootings than days in a year, and more prayers than policy.

What a terrible place

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Cops were at the scene and stopped the shooter in about 1 minute. Still managed to kill and hurt that many people.

The next time you hear someone say that there needs to be more guns or that if someone there had a gun they could have stopped it feel free to kindly ask them to stfu.

Domestic terrorism from white supremacists is a bigger threat than Islamic terrorism is the U.S. but you hardly ever hear anyone bring that up in the news.

An obvious result of the government/military building up Islamic Extremism as some large centralized network of cohesive individuals working to take away ARE FREEDOMS by any mean necessary, while White Supremacist terrorism is only conducted by "lone-wolf" "quiet boys" who "had a tough time after high school" and have "lost their way".

Everytime this thread get's bumped you know that it's a 9/10 chance the shooting took place in the US.

This topic should not be around. This quote is one I have kept. I believe it is about 5-6years old.

-@DPJHodges: In retrospect Sandy Hook marked the end of the US gun control debate. Once America decided killing children was bearable, it was over.

Yep.
