Sounds like you might be right:Anger coupled with entitlement.
Even more so working at one.It's getting kind of dangerous to go grocery shopping these days.
Why should it be hard to exercise our rights?Hey, just open carry turned criminal...
"I signed constitutional carry because it shouldn’t be hard for law-abiding Tennesseans to exercise their second amendment rights," Gov. Bill Lee said in April. "Thank you members of the General Assembly and the NRA for helping get this done."
You don't need a permit for concealed carry in Tennessee, but there are rules you must follow
As of July 1, Tennessee is now a permitless carry state. However, you still need a permit in certain situations.www.wbir.com
It's a lot more likely you'd have been severely injured in a car accident traveling to/from the grocery store...and exactly...it wouldnt have gotten much, if any, media attention. Because 'that's' normal in America.There was a time when something like this would have gotten everyone's horrified attention, but now it's just another day in America.
Imagine, you're in Kroger's picking up some baking chocolate and plan to go home and bake a batch of brownies to surprise the fam for dinner. And you're shot in the stomach instead.
Js, this isn't normal.
Good point.It's a lot more likely you'd have been severely injured in a car accident traveling to/from the grocery store...and exactly...it wouldnt have gotten much, if any, media attention. Because 'that's' normal in America.
Tons of mass shooting in the USFrom Associated Press
A gunman attacked a grocery store in an upscale Tennessee suburb on Thursday afternoon, killing one person and wounding 12 others before the suspect was found dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound at the store, authorities said.
Collierville Police Chief Dale Lane said the shooting broke out at a Kroger grocery in his suburban community about 30 miles (50 kilometers) east of Memphis. He said the gunman shot 13 others and himself, and that 12 of the victims were taken to hospitals, some with very serious injuries.
One Kroger worker, Brignetta Dickerson, told WREG-TV she was working a cash register when she heard what at first she thought were balloons popping.
“And, here he comes right behind us and started shooting,” Dickerson said. “And, he kept on shooting, shooting, shooting. He shot one of my co-workers in the head and shot one of my customers in the stomach.”
Lane said police received a call about 1:30 p.m. about the shooting and arrived within minutes, finding multiple people with gunshots when they entered the building.
COMMENT:-
I'd be rather interested to find out what "serious issues" this arrogant, stupid, pathetic, piece of garbage, loser had that he felt justified him in killing other people in order to exercise his freedom of expression.Wouldn't you?Well, at any rate he won't be doing it again.
How would you know that?I get pissed when I hear people make excuses for these people with the he had "problems", "mental issues" and that type of mess. His issue was he didn't have any regard for other peoples lives.
I know how hard it would be to be a swat officer and go into that building and not shoot a person like this after you see all the wounded.
Knowledge of why can lead others to identifying some one off the deep endIt matters to me. I guess I'm nosy, but I like to know why a person murders (or attempts to murder) a bunch of innocent people.
He won't, but there are plenty of more guns around for the next one.From Associated Press

Why should it be hard to exercise our rights?
Do you agree with legislation that's making voting harder? IMO, that's a lot more dangerous.
Every other industrialized nation on earth: Medical care is a right. Owning a gun is a priviledge.Hey, just open carry turned criminal...

Yep. It's Right Wing Utopia...meaning that in reality, it's a nightmare.Every other industrialized nation on earth: Medical care is a right. Owning a gun is a priviledge.
America: Medical care is a priviledge. Owning a gun is a right.
What a sonnuvabitch. Getting fired gives you the right to shoot everyone in sight? No, it really doesn't.
WREG-TV reported the shooter was an employee who had been fired on Thursday, citing an unnamed law enforcement source.
Brignetta Dickerson, a Kroger employee, told WREG that she instructed fellow employees and customers when the shooting broke out to follow her to the back of the store and closed the door behind them, but the gunman followed.
"He kept on shooting and shooting and shooting. He shot one of my co-workers in the head and then shot one of the customers in the stomach," Dickerson said, adding that the shooter appeared to have a military-style rifle.
Gunman kills one and then himself at Tennessee supermarket, 12 wounded
A gunman killed one person, wounded 12 and then apparently killed himself at a Tennessee supermarket on Thursday, pursuing panicked shoppers and employees as they fled down the aisles while some took refuge in store freezers, police said.www.reuters.com

A car crash with 12 people carted off to the hospital and two dead would certainly make the news in our town. Remember the limo crash in NY? That was news for weeks.It's a lot more likely you'd have been severely injured in a car accident traveling to/from the grocery store...and exactly...it wouldnt have gotten much, if any, media attention.

OK. But I responded to her, a single person, being shot in the stomach.A car crash with 12 people carted off to the hospital and two dead would certainly make the news in our town. Remember the limo crash in NY? That was news for weeks.
Please explain how it was illogical, specifically, in the context of her post?LOL. Wow, now there's some "logic".
Good lord.
If you'd answer my questions first, I'd appreciate it.I would be okay with registering every gun owner just like voters.. Is that your suggestion? How about having just a few registered gun shops (like polling stations) that you can visit a couple of times a year to exercise those gun rights... We can do audits of the registrations to make sure nobody has slipped through the cracks and let any citizen challenge the registration of gun owners like they do with voters... See, we can find common ground....
Now remind me what point you are trying to make here?
It matters to me. I guess I'm nosy, but I like to know why a person murders (or attempts to murder) a bunch of innocent people.
Could we find out who this guy is and what he was up to before the endless gun control debate starts?
Please explain
I was referring to the case in TN today, 12-14 shot. A car wreck with 12-14 victims makes the news too.OK. But I responded to her, a single person, being shot in the stomach.
You moved the goal posts, I'm ok with that. Now remind me what point you are trying to make here?
THese shootings are not rare. In fact, they have become quite common.Is it about the rarity of such occurrences with commonly owned, legal objects?
How do they compare to the car accidents where 12-14 people are killed? You moved the goal posts from a conversation...so stick with it.I was referring to the case in TN today, 12-14 shot. A car wreck with 12-14 victims makes the news too.
