It's Not Just The Guns. It's Republicans.

1. It's no longer about guns, abortion pills, etc.

It is about the GOP need to control, kill, torture Americans.
Establish fear, terror in the population to make it a docile one.
Necessary prelude to establishing a fascist government.

They do this for the sake of power, control, votes and money.
They will kill and torment as many Americans as it takes.

Plus the GOP/MAGAs enjoy their hatred, love tormenting and killing people.
Making people suffer. Just like Hitler and Putin.

13. The object of power is power... 1984 (nt)

[Irish_Dem]

32. Yes and power is about control and money.

17. mass shootings are the whip of the dominator

The art of domination is to get people to repeatedly say or do things against their instincts for self-preservation. The more risk, or in this case, horror involved, the tighter the grip become at each iteration.

[Akakoji]

44. Agreed

They don't even try to conceal it anymore.

[no_hypocrisy]

2. Every time Republican yell, "They want our guns!",

Democrats should scream louder, "They want to shoot and kill us!"

[JanLip]

15. Another good one!

Joe The Plumber: ‘Your Dead Kids Don’t Trump My Constitutional Rights’ To Have Guns

Ironic how he chose that verb back in 2014

[DENVERPOPS]

41. Perfect Keith

It isn't just the Republicans, they have gained control of a huge group of far right religious and evangelical fanatics driving their agenda via the Repub Party......

4. Every Republican is complicit in the destruction of American democracy.

These are not just nice people with whom I happen to disagree- these are selfish, juvenile cock roaches who have demonstrated their indifference to the destruction of justice, equity, and decency in our shared geographical location.

[SouthernDem4ever]

11. +1

[DENVERPOPS]

30. And all my Dem friends

thought I had gone mental for wiping out every friend, acquaintance, neighbor and client who was a Republican, starting back when Cheney installed W in the white house................

Hillary said it best during the debates when she said: "there is a giant right wing conspiracy" and even the Dems thought her statement was out there in the Universe somewheres.......

Best Title for a book about the last 40+ years would be: WHILE THE NATION SLEPT

5. Repigs want to turn gun kooks into Brownshirts V.2

And they want them to take action when they toot the dog whistle.

‘Proud boys stand by and stand down.’

Etc.,

[multigraincracker]

6. Because the rePublicans and the NRA love Putin so much,

we should have the same restrictive gun laws as Russia.

[multigraincracker]

7. and abortions are legal there too.

[SouthernDem4ever]

12. All repuglican gatherings and rallies

should allow and encourage participants to bring their assault rifles - but they don't. What a bunch of hypocrites. (I know that's redundant at this point)

[DENVERPOPS]

31. THE biggest farce ever pulled was

the so called Russian Branch of the NRA........................The Russian Oligarchs donated heavily to the Russian branch of the NRA.
The Russian Branch of the NRA, sent the money to the NRA headquarters here in the United States. The U.S. NRA flooded the Republican Candidates election/re-election campaigns with tons of that money.

It was a real piece of work, to try and create a legitimacy of the Republican's Corrupt Campaign Money......But in reality, it was just a humongous "Money Laundering" to give Republican Candidates across our nation, a bottomless slush fund for their campaigns in 2016.........financed purely by Putin/Russian Gov't.........

It is the reason that the Republicans in the Senate, House, and governors are still in lock step behind Trump. They fucking damn well know where the money came from, and how they were installed in office. The corrupt financing of the 2016 Republican Campaign would be made public and they would all be out of office. "IF TRUMP GOES DOWN, WE GO DOWN", so we need to continue with the charade of backing Trump to this day........

[DENVERPOPS]

37. there was also some reporting

floating around about O'Connell's wife, (the Secretary of Transportation???), is the daughter of a Chinese Oligarch Family, and they were funneling their money and other Chinese oligarch friend's money towards OConnell and other Repub Senators.

[DENVERPOPS]

40. Sir Walter Scott said it best:

“Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive "

And without a doubt the Current Repub's, Trump, his spawn, Jared, and his entire administration are the epitome of that quote for sure.....

10. AMEN!

[Initech]

23. I will never, in a million years, ever, understand a country...

That values its' guns more than the victims they take from us. It's truly insane. Honestly when Sandy Hook happened, I would have thought that would have been the end. But nope, that fucking raging asshole conspiracy theorist had to go shoot his mouth off that it was fake and it didn't happen, and now things are worse than ever. The cruelty is the point of modern conservatism.

[LoisB]

28. I, too, thought Sandy Hook would be THE line in the sand.

[republianmushroom]

27. Yep

agree with this posting

29. ANd while they have our attention on that Amendment...

they are slowly and quietly reinterpreting and changing the others to kill women's rights and minority voting rights and any other items they don't like we aren't paying attention to.

[calimary]

33. So what do we DO about it?

So what do we DO about it?

[SYFROYH]

34. It's the votes. And we don't have enough.

[Jughead]

35. Gun solution?

The DNC should be running ads with transgenders holding guns like the AK.
Results would be like Bud Light ads….lol

[GoodRaisin]

42. Exactly. I don't know why it's so hard for some people to state what is the perfectly obvious.

It’s the fucking Republicans dammit. Say it. Say it every time. Every shooting is ANOTHER REPUBLICAN SHOOTING.

K&R. Thank you for posting.

43. THIS!
