    This has by far got to be the stupidest most hateful post in this entire thread.

    It was a sawed off shotgun, which does not fire bullets and typically holds 3 to 4 shells in the magazine tube. The killer's motive is unknown, but he was not going to massacre a lot of people with that gun.

    Nobody supports the idea that anyone should be able to buy a gun. That is why there are so very many disqualifiers on gun ownership in Federal law.

    Evidence is clear the killer was in illegal possession. The fact that it was a sawed off shotgun is defining of a criminal in illegal possession. There is a massive mountain of law and case law that says so.

    It is a Federal crime in all states and all states add their own laws prohibiting a user of illegal and addictive drugs to buy or be in possession of any firearm by any means.

    As for your reference to Trump, he is an amoral narcissistic anti-gun anti-woman anti-American pro-dictator loving sniveling obese man-child piece of **** who's dumbass campaign slogan is entirely off topic here.

    It's the name of the town, probably given to it originally in the Comanche language by Comanches.

    You act as if those are mutually exclusive... the event is a tragedy and we are lucky no more people were hurt... see how that works?

    gun grabbing in VA is the will of the majority, Jeff Bezos opened up a new Amazon there and provided many jobs.

    ordinary Americans let them have the house, so it will take a few decades for them to see it after its too late.

    If this had turned into a mass murder, progressives would mockingly ask "so contards... where was the good guy with the gun?!".

    My avatar is an example of this sort of method. It was just a troll, until organizations like the ADL and SPLC decided that they could just declare it a literal hate symbol. As I predicted, and shortly afterwards, "journalists" (progressive propagandists) followed suit and started making the same claim, citing either the ADL or SPLC.

    So yes, if the narrative that the NRA is a terrorist organization is pushed hard enough by the right people, their constituents will be whipped into frenzied protests, and the media will be more than happy to oblige. At some point, the narrative will stick be widly accepted until there's real pressure for the right administration to make it official.

    Are they in compliance with their own biblical doctrine? If they were, they would gladly welcome the chance to die for their faith. It is obvious that they don't really believe it. Ancient Christians would bravely face charging lions because they believed in their religion. If Jesus wants you dead he will kill you. Isn't he supposed to be God? So why resist his will?

    It looks like your unaware that the same gun laws you advocate against made it possible for an armed church member to stop the mass shooting.

    Why is that?

    I am an athiest. I know that there is no such thing as any god.

    I find your heartless cynicism to be brutally offensive.

    The discussion is about religious people getting killed in church. The Bible plainly says that the souls of people who get killed for their faith are kept under the altar in white robes and that the killing will continue until the magic number is reached. If you don't believe that then why in the hell would you waste time going to church praying to a character that you don't believe in? Jesus said not to resist the evil man = Matthew 5:39 = https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matthew5:39&version=CEB;CEV;ERV;TLB;NKJV

    So, it is obvious that there were very few, if any, real Christians in that church at that time.

    If it was a true gun free zone — zero guns — it wouldn't have happened at all.

    Uh huh. We're right up there with New York and California...despite the massive differences in gun control laws.

    I'm just glad it was put to an end quickly. I'm sure details will follow, but that much should be celebrated on all sides.

    I am also an atheist but I am knowledgable about various religions. The Bible is very specific on this issue. The Jesus character demands that a magic number of believers MUST BE KILLED before he returns. It has been 2,000 years and there's no indication that he is on his way but, if the story is true, the next victim might be that magic number. And since the victim will go to heaven why get upset because an evil angel blew his brains out? His soul will endure so there's no harm.

    What is offensive is people who claim to believe in ancient ethnocentric Middle Eastern religious fairy tales but don't follow them. If I was a believer I would simply stay in my seat and if the perp killed me I would be glad because I would believe in the promise. In any case I wouldn't go around shedding tears and whining about how guns should be banned because people kill each other with them. Samson killed 1,000 people with a donkey's jawbone.

    The bottom line: I have no empathy for anyone of any religion who is killed while worshiping his favorite deity.
