Mass Shootings
Just a little something to think about on this Monday morning…….
Since about 1990 NRA has had a full court press to save our “gun rights”…….and the enablers at the GOP have been pushing more and more “gun rights”….you know kinda like open carry, easier acquisition, shoot first laws. etc etc……..
In case you were wondering….how have the mass shootings fair during this full court press by NRA………now with the most recent mass shooting in Louisiana got me asking a question…..is it just me or are these incidents become commonplace?
Take a look at the graphic below and ask yourself if there is a correlation here……
Does anyone else think that these shootings are occurring way to often?
It’s the worst kind of synchronicity: A website that tracks mass shootings in the US had logged 203 through Wednesday. It hasn’t caught up with last night’s rampage in a Louisiana theater, but when it does, that will be No. 204—and yesterday was the 204th day of the year, notes the Washington Post. The Mass Shooting Tracker is a crowd-sourced tool from an anti-gun forum at Reddit called Guns Are Cool, and it defines “mass shooting” as incident in which at least four people were shot. Not all of the incidents resulted in deaths.
A post at Quartz digs in a little deeper to the numbers and finds that 40 of 50 states have had at least one such mass shooting this year, with New York (16), California (14), Florida (14), Texas (12), and Georgia (12) at the top of the list. In its coverage, the Post quotes a barb from the Economist, written after the Charleston church massacre, that has been in wide circulation of late: “Those who live in America, or visit it, might do best to regard [mass shootings] the way one regards air pollution in China: an endemic local health hazard which, for deep-rooted cultural, social, economic and political reasons, the country is incapable of addressing. This may, however, be a bit unfair. China seems to be making progress on pollution.”
Sad that a great society has come to this!
Let The Bastard Rot!
I have written many times about those people with dual citizenship that choose to fight for the other country…….I think these people are traitors and should be dealt with harshly. Then there are those Americans that spy on this country for another country……these people should ROT in prison or better yet ….shoot the bastards.
This brings me to the meat of this post…….Jonathan Pollard….and American that was convicted of spying for Israel against his country……
The US is getting ready to release one of its most high-profile prisoners. The Wall Street Journal reports that Jonathan Pollard, the former Navy analyst who is serving a life sentence for spying on behalf of Israel, could be released in a matter of weeks. The 60-year-old was convicted in 1985 and is up for parole in November for the first time. The Journal‘s sources say he may be released even before then, in part to soothe Israel’s anger over the Iran nuclear deal.
There’s no official confirmation, and after several similar media reports surfaced earlier this month, the Times of Israel spoke to one of Pollard’s attorneys, who sounded skeptical. “We have not received any word, and I would expect that either I or my client would be the ones who would be notified,” said Eliot Lauer. Pollard got caught passing along classified information to Israeli operatives and eventually pleaded guilty. Supporters say his health has been deteriorating recently.
I say screw his…..he is a TRAITOR and deserves no0thing but to rot in prison…….even if he was working for our ‘friend’ Israel…..matters not…..he should receive the harshest punishment we are allowed to administer.
Here is a thought for you to chew on……this is a screen grab from FOX News that was later deleted…….
This from our “good friend” in the Middle East!
Let Pollard rot in prison and shut down the access that Israel has in this country. This is a false flag friendship…….I want NOTHING to do with these people…..PERIOD!
Enough Said?
Where Would Jesus Settle? « Antiwar.com Blog
We all have been exposed to endless WWJD (what would Jesus do), right?
We also have heard a wide array of false prophets tell us what Jesus would say and what God would say about whatever topic is important to Bible thumpers……
Consider the Holy Land these days……and now ask ……….”where would Jesus settle” (WWJS)?
This is an interesting piece….well interesting to me…….
Nine reasons Obama is going to win on Iran. The first: Netanyahu – Mondoweiss
Is Texas still in the hands of the people? The pending takeover must have hit a snag.
This past week has been one of the most boring times…..the MSM had a couple of shootings that they could milk but after that there was nothing but gossip and silliness…….the world is on fire, literally and the best the American MSM can do is some tiff between a couple of overpaid entertainers and some loud mouth politician that has NO hope of a nomination but yet is how news…….
I think I shall forgo stupid and embrace the seriousness of the world’s condition……..
Israel and its Neocon lackeys are in full court press to defeat the Iran deal…….the problem is they have no facts and plenty of misinformation at hand to push……
They are pulling NO punches and no lies…..they will say whatever it takes to defeat the deal……but with all their antics and tactics it seems that Obama and Iran will probably win the battle of bullshit…….
There are 9 reasons why Obama will win the debate…..
