    No, that is what Trump wanted to do as well, and now people are denying he ever said it. They don't even know what is due process.

    Which, of course, is still law. Obama wanted to target people that doctors had not determined to be dangerous.

    To deny race is not an issue when a guy murdered more than twenty people to stop an "invasion" is simply irresponsible.

    Then why can't you answer my simple question? You painted the right wing as racists. Your statement is false and only reveals your own brand of bias. How does that make you different or better?

    Many of the right wing are indeed racists, as you have admitted. Your statement otherwise is false. My bias is on the welfare and safety of all Americans. That makes me more aware and different than those that place the sale of guns above the safety of people.

    The fact that you have to put it extra effort to see beauty reveals your initial, true reaction.

    Yes, of course. I recognized that my view/attitude toward black was not what it should be, so I took steps to adjust it. Can't you see any negative aspects of your own view/attitude toward blacks?

    And we can see what happens when people don't put any effort into it.

    What would the left have without their race card. They obsess about race. There is a word for that.

    Let me get your logic straight here.
    Multiple killings aren't a gun problem, they are a mental health problem but there is no reason that a person with mental health problems shouldn't be allowed to have a gun because that is there "right".
    Please, pray tell, just where is the bar set for someone NOT to be able to have a gun.

    No, but I can relate on a different issue. I was raised religious and have grown into an atheist.

    Trump has unleashed it. The same crazies will fight for military guns .....guns that can kill many in seconds. No one wants to take away all guns but they do want to regulate. These are the same people who go crazy about fetuses but don’t give a damn about people being shot

    You are incorrect. Both sides care about preventing murder. Its just that they are unwilling to work together.

    Renee, of course, is correct. Trump has released the hate on the far right, and once again they country will have to, as it did in the 1950s and 1960s, confront it and put it back in the genii's bottle.

    Explain. Precisely what can be done to confront the problem, if the individuals who are filled with hate are left in society, rather than being removed? How can the hatred be removed from the equation of the haters are not removed themselves? Will not any effort at address ultimately be nothing more than trying to hide the underlying problem?
