Cont: Today's Mass Shooting (part 3)

I tend to agree. None of these freaks wavered even a little when some guy with a rifle sprayed the Republican softball game.

Scalise was shot and will probably have permanent quality of life loss as a result and it didn't shake his faith. Commendable, in a very sick sort of way.

If the Second Amendment is "unlimited" then I suppose prisoners should be permitted to own and carry guns. I don't see the Founding Fathers saying they couldn't.

Along with felons and anyone who appears before Congress or The Supreme Court. Also curious how many of these politicians hold events that don't permit firearms.

I do wonder if they could be shocked out of their attitude - normally I would say "shamed" but we know they have no shame.

If a parent of a murdered child was debating with him, would anything change if the parent held up a photo of their dead child showing the damage of the weapons he thinks are worth the death of that child?

I've said it might be time to make Republican legislators pose in front of crime scene photos of children killed with high power rifles whenever they want to talk about their interpretation of the 2nd Amendment. But there was a time when I'd have thought that simply knowing that such things were happening with alarming regularity would have been enough to make a demand for change virtually unanimous. I'm so sick at heart of this ******* ******** that I honestly fear that it would just be the first step to normalizing such horrific images.
 
Back to our regularly scheduled mass shootings.

14 wounded in Clarksdale, Mississippi in a dispute that began at a "concert" and escalated after "two groups" stumbled onto one another on the street a short time later.

Judging by the security camera footage, these 2 groups were not composed of members of White supremacist terrorist groups the the federal government keeps warning us about.

Another mass shooting in a state with very loose gun laws. Oh well.

Why stop at guns? If nukes are outlawed, only the outlaws will have nukes. And who's the government to tell me I can't drive down the freeway in an M1 Abrams?

Who has argued that the second amendment is unlimited and immune from any and all regulation?

Can you deny that the "second amendmendists" aren't actually working towards this?

Can you prove they are?

If so, why even ask the question, just present the evidence. If not, of course he can deny it if there's no evidence for it.

Well the fact that most red states seem to be keen on expanding access to guns and diluting restrictions on purchase and carry laws seems to belie your shock/horror at my calling out Hercules56 statement.

Oh yeah...you need to have them actually verbally state it in those exact same words.

Yep, otherwise it just looks like a leading question asked in bad faith in order to castigate another poster who's views you disagree with.

In the California case, U.S. District Judge George Wu, who was nominated by President George W. Bush, appeared to take a dig at how other judges are interpreting the Supreme Court’s guidance.
The company that brought the challenge — “and apparently certain other courts” — would like to treat the Supreme Court’s decision “as a ‘word salad,’ choosing an ingredient from one side of the ‘plate’ and an entirely-separate ingredient from the other, until there is nothing left whatsoever other than an entirely-bulletproof and unrestrained Second Amendment,” Wu wrote in his ruling.
