But the $64,000 dollar question is, “How do we determine who is a ‘nut job’ and who is not?” Yes, the "how" seems to be the fly in the ointment. The Las Vegas shooter used to be a Postal employee, and his father: Neither of which has anything to do with anything, just interesting.

I honestly don't know how to solve this problem. All I DO know is it's a deadly and very BIG problem that other civil countries don't have. This is one of the things that doesn't make me proud to be an American no matter what the gun manufactures or the NRA spews. I know, same here.....I'm sad to say the list of things that doesn't make me proud to be an American seems to be growing.....add the climate change denial and of course our (cough) leader in Washington (cough cough).

now we have the 'build your own 3-D plastic gun' Thank the state dept. for settling earlier this year with Defense Distributed, permitting them to make this available tomorrow. Trump stated this doesn't make sense...instead of inquiring from his state dept., he calls the NRA. Yea, the NRA...what the hell!

In an address to Kady’s quoted post above, this is a classic case of where the law(s) cannot keep up with the technology fast enough and there are those that will exploit that loophole to the max and as quickly as they can before legislations are enacted.

I must confess that I had never read anything about his father. I just concentrated on Jr. and all the rhetoric surrounding the event trying to figure out what would drive someone to commit such a heinous crime. Seems the apple didn’t fall far from the tree after perusing several informative articles about the father.

Would you believe someone on that other site used a quote from Malcolm X to justify such kind of violence and when I call them out, at the time of Malcolm making such a quote he was a radical Muslim who hated white people and long before his death reformed his views. Of course they didn't like that and another posted in a round about way tried to say I was the real racist. That I think the latter poster's feelings had more to do with some earlier videos i posted in a different that triggered a bad reaction for them and they didn't have any other outlet for the feelings so they used that opportunity to vent.
Oh well, black people problems, white people problems, when does it ever end. LOL! Can't we all just get along.
