50 dead in a Gay bar in Orlando.
We don't know what the motivation was of the shooter. All we know is that they used an assault rifle.

IMO you can directly tie Stalin's killing of 20 million of his own people as an act of deranged atheism. As was Mao's 45 million and others such as Pol Pot. Committed communists/atheists fear organized religion and sought to eradicate all believers.
However, you could argue to leave atheism out of this discussion and put all the blame on communism.

RE: Two Mass Shootings in Orlando in Two Days
It's important that Americans have access to assault weapons and other high capacity rifles because even though you might get a lot of mass shootings, what if Obummer and his army tries to invade your house, to take away your assault weapons and other high capacity rifles?

Do you even know what an actual assault rifle is?

I pulled it down. While Dan Patrick put that up on his website this morning, There's no comment that I can see that directly ties it to the shooting.
While I think that he did it that way, and many LGBT people do too, its not confirmed at this point. Either way, completely crass of Dan Patrick to put that up there this morning.

We don't know what the motivation was of the shooter. All we know is that they used an assault rifle.
He was an Isalmist terrorist. We know what his motive was. When will you people on the left wake up to reality. San Bernadino and now Orlando. Obama will come out and blame the NRA or he will blame not letting people use a certain bathroom. Reality is that Trump has no problem calling this what it is, so get ready for people to sign on with him.

RE: Two Mass Shootings in Orlando in Two Days
If it's 50 dead, it's the single worst mass shooting in U.S. history. Current 'record' is 32. A dubious record to be sure. So sad. My oldest brother is on the last day of an AIDS ride in California - I'm sure all the bike riders out there are devastated.

What a shame .The wake of Muhammad Ali's passing and the worldwide out pouring of Love shown as well as a small healing with the Islamic community this week, 2 days later a possible Islamic Terrorist destroyed all of that in one blow.

The problem is that every time a mass shooting happens, conservatives give their boilerplate condolences and say "now is not the time" to talk about the gun issue, then after a few days it fades from the news cycle and memory.
Rinse, repeat. Time after time, month after month. It's a diversion tactic, but it works for them.

Sure, it's real easy to come to that conclusion... if you just ignore the millions who have been killed by atheists.

yep...
and I could also counter that humans are animals regardless....
blah, motherfuckin', blah....
these stupid fkrs aren't the face of any country....
these are rogue individuals with only one very stinky motif.....
also, communism is only viewed in the same vein as atheism.....it's unfortunate that too many people bought into 'that' propaganda since fdr....that's one of my main points why this country has become what it has....

These Islamic Fu@ks will always have weapons. If You think a stupid Fu@king ban on guns will stop criminals and terrorists then You will have blood on your hands when there is no one allowed to own guns for self defense to fight Them back.

RE: Two Mass Shootings in Orlando in Two Days
Lazybrook = just intellectually lazy
"Assault Rifle" is a military term referring to a medium sized caliber, shoulder-fired rifle that allows the operator to freely select between semiautomatic mode and either fully automatic or three-shot-burst mode. That means, you hold trigger it keeps sending rounds down range putting lots of steel on target. What all military uses for good reason. Thats never been what law abiding citizens have access to. Semi auto is one pull, one bang. Regardless of his much plastic is molded and shaped to look like the real thing, these are just run of the mill hunting platforms. But they are the libtard boogie man.
BTW gomers, assault rifles are already illegal under federal law unless the weapon is registered, stamped and permitted through ATF which is relatively rare, arduous, time consuming and dang expensive.
For liberals, "assault rifle" is just dog whistle message for "all rifles." What happens when you take your talking points from MSNBC.
