3. 3 yrs ago my comment you responded to would have been considered WAY TOO FAR

on this site and others.

Problem is WHEN I said this 3 and 5 and 10 years ago it was NEVER too far, many of us have said this stuff for years but we were ALWAYS screamed at for being inappropriate and unfair to the reasonable GOP members.

We now know what the "reasonable" GOP members are willing to stand up for, as in nothing! Liz Cheney aside. And Adam something. Kinzinger?

NOT JUST ban assault weapons and make guns more difficult to attain.

PROFILE these 200 murders and their posting to social media ahead of time, so we can classify VIOLENT EXTREMISTS as Domestic Terrorists and stop them from planning more of the same, which they already are.

Extremists are praising the Uvalde school shooting online and encouraging copycat attacks, feds warn
