Gun deaths? What's that? Did the gun die?We had over 45,000 gun deaths in 2021-- do the math.
Or are you talking about people killing people?

So what is the problem?Whoosh!! Another point going over your head. There was no denial about his intent to be a mass shooter. He qualifies even if he shot and killed only two because his intent was clear. That was not why that example was very poor.
No, you can't just make up new traditions. If you don't believe in the truth of scripture you aren't even qualified to have this discussion.Scripture is part of tradition as it doesn't emerge just out of thin air.
Your mistake is thinking a linear relationship betweenYes, and my point is that if the proliferation of guns is supposedly making us safer, then why are the figures much, much lower? Common sense has it that the more guns, the greater likelihood things could go "south". We have an estimated 410,000,000 guns in American society for roughly 340,000,000 people, and then we wonder there are so many homicides and accidental killings?
It's like them saying "If we have more cars, we will have fewer accidents".
Really? You don't understand? Going to a gun range with the intent to shoot others is a form of suicide. The man knew that he would be killed. When your sources only example is one that amounts to suicide you know that in reality that they have nothing.So what is the problem?
More bad faith politics. Republicans are already working to lose more elections in 2024. Democrats just need to let republicans destroy their party, and voters will see these people are not electable. Oddly even the conservative base wants more MAGA chaos and bad faith politics, because they learned nothing a few weeks ago.Soon to be Speaker of the House McCarthy has said that he will not allow squad member Ilhan Omar to be on the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Kevin McCarthy wants to block three Democrats from committees if he becomes House speaker
He did say that this is what he wanted to do before the midterms. Pelosi opened the door to this when she ignored the Republican House leadership's choices for the January 6th Committee and forced her own selected members instead.More bad faith politics.

She should have kept with precedent and accepted all five McCarthy proposed, that's what. But she chose to break the precedent for a momentary advantage on the January 6th Committee. Now that the tables are turned she and the Democrats are reaping what they sowed.McCarthy offered five members. Pelosi rejected 2 of them and asked McCarthy for alternatives. McCarthy retaliated by withdrawing all five choices.
What was Pelosi supposed to do at that point?

I see you are keeping with the Democrat precedent of being inconsistent. "Republicans are petty but the Democrats weren't." The fragrance of cognitive dissonance and duplicity, the very flower of Democrat precedence.McCarthy should have kept with precedent and proposed competent, impartial Representatives.
But thank you for confirming the GOP's agenda of petty vengeance.
She said no to the far right nutcases, Jordan and MTG. MTG was kicked off committees because she is crazy and dissruptive. Jordan has shown himself in herings as going off on the wall tangents that are irrelevant to the purpose.He did say that this is what he wanted to do before the midterms.

It's a shame that you value human life so little, so go play with your guns, I guess.Gun deaths? What's that? Did the gun die?

So, you're the one making the rules here?No, you can't just make up new traditions. If you don't believe in the truth of scripture you aren't even qualified to have this discussion.
Why would anyone want an inefficient tool for any job?

People are gonna kill people. It's been going on since Cain and Abel.It's a shame that you value human life so little, so go play with your guns, I guess.
So, because he wants to die that doesn't make taking him out to save others worth while? What?Really? You don't understand? Going to a gun range with the intent to shoot others is a form of suicide.

The topic was mass shooters, not suicide attempts.So, because he wants to die that doesn't make taking him out to save others worth while? What?
