Alt left shooter

Clearly the 2nd amendment saved the day.

It's sad how fractured this country is.

Look how ready PB is to use this situation to prove some sort of political point. The guy is a crazy old white dude, this is not part of some vast 'alt-left' liberal conspiracy. These types of people can unfortunately come from all walks of life, political ideologies or religious backgrounds. Pointing fingers only serves to break the divide even wider, let's talk about how we treat people with opposing views like human beings again.

I lost what?

a. Yes, there's an alt-left.
b. Violence is extremely bad. Also, political violence is much more prevalent in America amongst first world democracies, historically.
c. "Trump Assassination" play is Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. Obama was used in Caesar's place in prior staging in 2012. Also, the point of the play is that assassinations are bad - the populace turns against the assassins later on.
d. Shooter was a Sanders supporter, and hated Clinton, the GOP, and Trump. (checked his FB page myself)

I agree guns are the problem though; we should be allowed to bear arms as afforded to us by the 2nd amendment but for city dwellers by law all guns should be kept at your local Police station, who on demand 24/7 will give you access to your guns.

I'd say it's both ways. The perpetrator having a gun ruined the day, the capital police being present with guns saved the day.

I don't disagree.

Crazy people having unrestricted access to firearms is also a problem.

Who gets to determine who is crazy is the problem.

If you can't see that, you're part of that first problem.

Yes, yes.. if you don't agree with MY opinion, YOU are the problem.

Great.

Creates a nasty catch-22. It's a mental health problem, not a gun problem, but we don't want to limit access to arms for fear of government overreach. So in the end, fingers are pointed and nothing is done on either end of the spectrum.
