Catholic Church, Falwell Ministries and now the Southern Baptists, all powerful, politically active religious organizations hiding sexual predators from the law. It's sickening that these religious leaders would use their faith to protect those amongst them from being prosecuted for heinous sex crimes. Clergy, corporate officers, political figures and everyone else must be held accountable for their actions equally or we have no rule of law.
https://apnews.com/article/baptist-r...8f854c3dae3fd5Report: Top Southern Baptists stonewalled sex abuse victims
The report asserts that an Executive Committee staffer maintained a list of Baptist ministers accused of abuse, but there is no indication anyone “took any action to ensure that the accused ministers were no longer in positions of power at SBC churches.”
The most recent list includes the names of hundreds of abusers thought to be affiliated at some point with the SBC. Survivors and advocates have long called for a public database of abusers.
Another mass shooting in Texas by assault weapons, weapons of war, this time killing most of a classroom of small children and their teenagers. Three police officers on scene didn't even bother to stop the shooter before he entered the school and begun his massacre. What a sad day for our country, another black eye for the idiots on the Right who believe gun control and background checks are wrong. And a horrible tragedy that the Texas police couldn't defend it's citizens.

Stop acting like a partisan dipshit.. you don't care.. you just care about the talking points such an incident provides you.
Thankfully good men with "assault weapons" were able to stop the deranged, mentally insane man with an "assault weapon".

Yup.. "assault weapons" are the really, really dangerous ones.. They use the term "assault weapons" to create a fear in peoples minds, so they can first outlaw those.. then they'll go after the "handguns".. then the "shotguns".. then every type of gun..
If you don't care about statistics, facts, and can't compare and contrast actions.. then you are a partisan, uncaring, ignorant piece of shit... and your opinion doesn't matter one bit.

Firearm deaths are the highest cause of unnatural death by crime in the country. Preventing high capacity magazines, assault rifles, the mentally unstable, children and felons from owning firearms would reduce that dramatically. Look at the EU, Japan, Canada, they don't have a fraction of our firearm deaths. Stop being a witless NRA schill.
A. An 18 year old is not a child, maybe we shouldn't be treating them as such.
B. It's illegal for felons to own any firearm.
C. The NRA is funded by private individuals. Why is the anti-gun crowd unable to beat out the NRA with it's own private organization?
A. Do you really want to compare the EU's history of mass genocide to America's gun laws? (There's literally a major war going on there now. Right on schedule.)
B. Do you really want to compare Japans history of fanatical violence?
C. Canada has 1/10th the population of the US.
