Jon Steward had the most moving dialog about the hypocrisy of republican crocodiles tears over crimes committed by refugees/immigrants and Americans:
One of the best he did in a while
Yup watched this the other night, it's a really powerful way to put it that shows just how much tragedy is being brushed off.
Apparently that's just the price to be paid so that some feeble excuses for men can make up for their inadequacies
Because there are no gun-loving women, right? /s
There are gun loving women, but it’s the men who do the most military-cosplay and commit the most mass shootings. Not to say that woman can’t be violent or crazy. It’s just that it’s so much more prevalent in men.
Could state policies really kill more US children than guns?
I misread that as "state police" and had almost the same thought.
But we can't make it difficult for law abiding citizens to get lots of guns and ammo. That would go against the 2nd amendment and Jesus.

“If jesus were alive today, he would want you to own a bump-stock” - some fucking redneck who I heard yelling at the Iowa State Fair.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!
