Pretty sure nobody except maybe Seran is denying that there are crazies on all sides, and no I'm not going to go looking up mass shooter political leaning statistics, primarily because I'm lazy.

I also agree that it shouldn't be about left or right. It also shouldn't be about guns, because the real problem is mental illness, which everyone on all sides seem to be hell bent on ignoring beyond lip service.
Remember the LGBTQ++++ person who shot up a school and has a manifesto that was never released? This guy, if he's "on the right" will have his fucking grade school report cards on the internet in 2 days.
