Gay Clout

Yawn. Irrelevant to the facts of the matter.

Not really. 30-plus thousand gun deaths a year in the US for decades. One Senate filibuster and House sit-in over the gun issue ever---and, by chance it happens right after a few gays get shot.

Again, you claimed that after Sandy Hook, there were only 'crickets'. That was a lie.

Deal with it.
 
Really? Members of the House had a sit-in and the Senate saw a filibuster after Newtown? Provide us a link on that, please.

So if they don't use one specific method it doesn't count? All of the other stuff, and there was a **** ton of it, is meaningless?
 
Was there a Kumbaya sit-in? Didn't think so.

Do they ever do anything like this when 30 people are shot on Chicago's streets in a single weekend? Right. I didn't think so either.

That's completely irrelevant to the fact that what you said in the OP was a falsehood.
 
I agree. That's why nobody should talk about Muslims or terrorism whenever a Muslim radical kills anybody. We wouldn't want to "misuse the misery and the horror" now, would we?

He wasn't a Muslim terrorist. He was a gay guy pissed off that he may have been exposed to AIDS. Pretty dumb considering only a moron would think that HIV wouldn't be a potential outcome when having sex with other men.

According to Miguel, Mateen was angry after one of his alleged partners revealed that he was HIV-positive after they had sex.

“He was terrified that he was infected,” Miguel said. “I asked him, ‘Did you do a test?’ Yes. He went to the pharmacy and did the test. … It came out negative, but it doesn’t come out right away. It takes four, five months. When I asked him what he was going to do now, his answer was ‘I’m going to make them pay for what they did to me.’”

Of course, no one is really going to bring this up. It's un-PC. Better to blame it on "Hate."

Congressional noise back then was nowhere near what we are seeing today. Nothing like it at all--crickets.

Yes it was. There were several bills proposed that failed. Tons of passionate speeches in favor of gun control. They didn't have a literal sit-in but if that's your criteria for what counts, then literally everything Congress has ever done has been crickets.
 
Out priorities are ****ed. And the "couldn't wait for the bodies to get cold" response is a bad argument. But so is using a shooting as an emotional appeal in support of policies that wouldn't help prevent that shooting. Let the argument ride on its own merits don't use the shooting as a crutch.

Closing the gun show loophole would not have prevented that shooting.

Yes, that's the line for everything. Bought the gun legally? Gun control wouldn't have prevented it. Bought the gun illegally? Gun control wouldn't have prevented it. The guy was a lone wolf? Gun control wouldn't have prevented it. The guy was part of a radical terrorist group? Gun control wouldn't have prevented it. It was just a gang crime thing? Gun control wouldn't have prevented it. Domestic situation? Gun control wouldn't have prevented it. It's extraordinary how no matter how the circumstances vary, no gun control measure could possibly work. Where is the energy to address a solution for over 8000 firearm-related homicides per year as exists with 49? And the fact is there is that energy, only it's devoted solely to shutting those discussions down in their entirety.

1.)You too. Please provide a link showing a Senate filibuster and House sit-in after the Newtown shooting. Should be easy enough to find for a confident guy like you.

don't need too since i never claimed there was one, your straw man gets owned and your post completely fails again :laughat:

A little lip service and few new gun laws proposed is nothing compared to the pandering we've seen this past week.

Sure you do. You're the one who's implying that Congressional reaction after Newtown was similar to what we saw earlier this week.

WHy do you post such obvious lies :laughat:
please quote me saying that?. thanks!!! :)

this is gonna be awesome watching you quote me NOT saying that and then you explain to us how you THINK it really means the lie you just made up :)
:popcorn2:
 
Since it apparently escaped your estimable powers of observation, when 30 kids were killed, there weren't 'crickets', but people tried (and failed) to get laws passed.

Try reality some time. You might like it!

And then, just like now, the emphasis is on the wrong thing....guns are not the problem....people are. And I don't think that old fart Black guy ever smiles. He's just an old civil riots, protesting poop head.

Laws that would disarm law abiding citizens. Brilliant!

From so called edjeeecated adults. What a ****ing joke these people are!

Ummmm no? All anybody could talk about for a month after the Lanza shooting was gun control. I rem because it was really annoying.

Yes it was....

Wow that is the fastest Ive seen an original post fail and be completely proven wrong in a while. Could a post be any more factually wrong and dishonest as the OP LMAO
Crickets? thats a flat out fallacy and lie
Gay agenda? there is none, thats a fallacy too that nobody honest educated and objective takes seriously
50 gay adults? heck unless another victim died wasnt it 49 victims and the gunman died also . . .and we dont know all 49 were gay.

Theres literally nothign true in the OP

And there is nothing valid in the Demo sit it. The only truth in that room is that a lot of people passed a lot of stinky gas!

Peee-Uuuuuuu

LMAO another straw man goes down in flames. :lamo
 
Gay murders make the news and sells newspapers.

Chicago has as many shooting as Orlando in a 3 week period and it has been going on for a very long time.

Black youths don't really matter to liberals and the supporting media cast........................ unless the news gets slow.

So unless there was a sit-in and a filibuster, the response was "crickets"? LMAO...
 
Meanwhile......................many of these very same liberal blowhards continue to ignore the inner city mass killings that go on in their own districts every week?

In this one specific circumstance, gun control wouldnt have prevented it. Not speaking on anything else.

Yes, and that is the explanation given to completely dismiss any discussion on gun control. Every time.

Let them kill themselves if they choose to live that lifestyle.

I would prefer to get the kids hearts and minds before they enter the lifestyle of gangbanging.

I knew your response was going to be stupid, but admittedly I underestimated just how stupid it would be. Bravo.
 
I'm sure the parents of students in Sandy Hook were really annoyed by all the talk of gun control as well. It must have been simply tedious.

And ...............misplaced!

Gun Control is about Power and Control over the citizens....nothing more.
