So what's the right wing's excuse this time?

[yardwork]

As yet another mass murder destroys people's lives, I wonder who MTG, Lauren Boebert, Tucker Carlson and the rest will blame this time?

Transgender? Apparently not this time.
Minority? Apparently not this time.
Woman? Nope.

Well, Marge?

1. So by default they must now blame "mental illness."

[yardwork]

3. The perennial go-to.

"A lone crazed gunman" "Nothing anybody could have done." "Thoughts and prayers."

It's almost like there's no common thread but I feel like there's this one consistent variable in all these mass shootings... what could it be....

2. Beer.

Must be the LGBT and beer companies thing. They are putting something in the beer.

[yardwork]

5. Maybe it's President Obama's fault. The tan suit strikes again!

[roamer65]

10. Ah. The old go to one.

Must be Obama and that damn tan suit.

4. The Governor of KY has already mentioned "mental health" a couple of times.

He didn't mention a 1 -800 number to call for help however.

[yardwork]

7. And he's a Democrat. But he wants to be re-elected, I guess.

[Roland99]

6. some on the right point to some post "Liked" by the shooter that implies support of liberals

something about the Aspen Institute and Bernie Sanders

[yardwork]

9. Of course! Naturally!!

[treestar]

8. Lack of prayer in public schools?

They can't blame abortion now (the lack of respect for life that they used to tout)

[yardwork]

11. That's the ticket! General godlessness and disrespect.

[lapfog_1]

12. let's see, must have been a soft target

nobody armed at the location, no hardened entrance / exit, no panic buttons, no cameras... and no secure place for the innocents to hide!

oh wait...

[yardwork]

13. Yeah, a bank does present a challenge to that particular narrative.

I feel sure that there was a good guy with a gun somewhere in the premises.

[lapfog_1]

14. and usually a very hard bank vault to hide in.

not to mention every teller can, at a push of a button at their stations, summon the police.

plus good guys with guns... and sometimes "bullet proof" glass between the lobby and the tellers (but it won't stop an AR-15).

This is literally one of the hardest targets we can come up with ( Well there are places in the federal government with active duty marines, armed with M-16s, man traps, extensive background checks and body searches for anyone that wants to enter, etc. but those places cost a small fortune to make "hard&quot .

This one gives lie to everything the right wants to do about school shootings. or mall shootings, or concert shootings... etc.

15. Antifa socialist striking at a capitalist institution. It's already on AM radio.

[yardwork]

16. Of course. Naturally.
