The Buffalo shooter, a white supremacist, was taken alive.

If he was white they did take him alive about a week or so earlier, why even go there when it’s literally just happened.

White kid surrendered.
Not the same at all.

At least 18 children, 2 adults dead after shooting at Texas elementary school

At least 18 children and two adults are dead after a shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

The 18-yea ...[text shortened]... allegedly shot and killed his grandmother before entering the school and again opening fire.

Yeah, he came, across state lines,
armed and looking to shoot someone.'
True fact, what they used to call, an 'outside agitator.'
So let me check if you judge motives consistently.

If a woman goes out late and is dressed provocatively and is sexually assaulted, you can (A) read her mind and know that she asked for it and (B) has forfeited her right to use self defense.

Also curious, did you watch any of the trail?

Seems like a national coordinated effort to take "white" murderers alive, but not non-white murderers. I'm sure all police agencies have secret meetings and lots of policy documentation that they've kept secret from all news agencies. Somehow they've prevented any whistleblower from sending a single written policy document to any news agency. Or maybe they tried, but CNN ignored such documentation.

Or, it could be that circumstances were different between the two events.

But who knows?

The former sounds a lot more plausible.

How does a woman "ask" to be sexually assaulted?

You're comparing someone who deliberately brought a deadly weapon across state lines to engage a crowd of protestors to a woman wearing a sexy dress.

Kyle was a pussy. No wonder he thought his life was "in danger". But he was a real man with that gun in his hand, that he brought across state lines with him, fully expecting to shoot people.

He might've gotten beat up, but he deserved that after shooting the first man.

His life wasn't in danger, just his pride.

Diminish my credibility my ass. Kyle diminished his own credibility doing what he did.
Fully expecting to shoot people?

What about the other people who brought guns, including one of the guys who got shot? Did they also fully expect to shoot people? How is it that they didn't shoot anyone? (Incidentally, one of the guys who got shot was trying to pull a gun on Kyle. HE was illegally carrying that gun).

And he crossed "state lines"!!! Whoa!!! Kenosha is roughly 3 miles from its neighboring state. Believe it or not, some people cross state lines literally every day. On some roads you can cross state lines and not even know it. But you'd probably treat Kyle worse than someone illegally crossing the southern US border.

And did you watch the trial? I'm guessing not. You probably just watched the left leaning news who lies regularly. It is a myth that he brought the gun from out of state. See link: https://news.yahoo.com/kyle-rittenhouse-didnt-illegally-bring-043226324.html

Also, even the prosecutor got schooled on the law. They charged him with illegally carrying the gun. It was shown in court that it was not illegal and Kyle cited the law while testifying. But you are forgiven because you only have heard the lying left-leaning news.

12 jurors agreed that his life was in danger.

They did not have the benefit of your extra keen knowledge. They were limited to looking at the actual evidence. And they probably understood that mind-reading is not real.

Ahh
This guy is exactly where he should be but the white kid will probably become a folk hero of the base with a book deal to look forward to. Just saying

One: You are repeating a myth. But you probably got that from lying left-leaning news. The gun did not come from out of state.

And this phrase "across state lines" has been repeated so often that feels like it means something. Why to you repeat buzz-phrases as if they have any implications?

If a woman wears a sexy dress she brought "across state lines", does that change how you view her actions?

Yes, I am comparing two things. It is my opinion that the woman has not "asked" to be assaulted and that Kyle did not "ask" for trouble.

I am trying to figure out how you think what you think and why you seem to not judge conistently.

Yeah, Democrats hold a lot of sway in Texas.

Just last year:

"Texans can carry handguns without a license or training starting Sept. 1, after Gov. Greg Abbott on Wednesday signed the permitless carry bill into law."

Do you possibly imagine that the
gun violence will decrease?


@techsouth said
Everyone seems to have forgotten the lessons learned from the BLM and Antifa protests of 2020. It's a good idea to be armed because the police can't protect you from angry mobs.

Any gun in my possession has a 0% chance of being used to shoot up a school, but a non-zero chance of being used to save my life.
You need a 30 round mag and body armor for that?

Can we at least agree an 18 year old shouldn't be able to buy an AR-15 online?

Texas is paying the price for their idiot ways with weapons, that 18 year old murderer got his 2 assault rifles on his 18th birthday and now we see yet another Sandy Hook.
But that won't sway the idiots on the repub side of the senate, they just dig in deeper to keep their hold on power, like Michael Moore said, they love their guns more than they love their children.
They mewl and cry and such when something like this happens but the NRA lobbyist crowd hands out money and they fall over like a hot snowman, not at all caring children die at the hand of guns more than any other killer now but these dudes don't give a rats ass that people WANT gun controls by a wide margin but those senators are too deep in the hands of lobbyists with deep pockets showing just how much they care about their own constituents and how much they DEEPLY care about maintaining their own personal power.
I wonder when republican voters will put two and two together and get those basstards out on their pathetic asses.

And they did that because they are actual humans not these repub zombies who care MUCH more about their personal power base than ANYTHING else.
