[Trump Shooting] Suspect was registered as Republican voter, state records show
Thomas Matthew Crooks, the suspectin Saturday’s shooting, was registered as a Republican voter, according to Pennsylvania records.
Already the republicans are dismissing his voter registration as meaningless. Here comes the “mental illness” angle.
Edit: apparently it’s not uncommon to register with the party you oppose in PA. This is going to be a fun ride.

"these guns that are different than a completely different kind of gun that nobody brought up before this particular comment are completely different!"
Your grasp of the obvious amazes me.
Do you always resort to ad-hominem when called out for thoughtless comments?
It's still not a good look, dear.
“these guns that are different than a completely different kind of gun that nobody brought up before this particular comment are completely different!”
You're talking about the fucking 1990s style Assault Weapons Ban.
And suddenly its unfair for me to bring up mass shootings that took place during that ban, and compare them to the AR-15 (aka: how mass shootings happen today).
Got it. You're a dipshit who was hoping that I was some kind of ignorant dumbass. You guessed wrong. Learn history next time before you challenge random people online.
Do you always resort to ad-hominem when called out for thoughtless comments?
I resort to ad-hominem after its become clear that my debate opponent is a dumbass who couldn't follow my earlier words. Because the discussion is over and I'm not debating anymore. You were too ignorant to follow my earlier points and are now fucking pwned.
I directly referenced 90s mass shootings. Of course I'm referencing Columbine, or are you also ignorant of the 90s or some of the most important mass shooting events of my childhood?
You try to say here you shouldn't need to talk about specifics "because we all know..." but in other comments you backpedal and say you're dumbing it down for others.
So which is it?
I think you just hit "reply" before your brain caught up with your fingers and heart.
Given your demeanor, I'd say you still have awhile to go before you exit "childhood" regardless of what your ID says. Keep going with the baseless personal attacks, surely you're one more comment away from changing my mind?
Have a good one I guess. Keep being angry and responding to everyone calling you out, it's going well for everyone involved.
That's a lot of words for "I'm sorry I was too ignorant to think of AR-15 vs Hi-Point 995 Carbine despite it being the obvious fucking example" and "I don't have a reasonable argument to talk about 90s gun control vs today's regime".
Go complain to someone else and your welcome for the education. If you have a real discussion argument to continue, feel free to ping me. But its blatantly obvious that you have nothing to go on with regards to how bullets work or why the AR15 is a problem in today's society.

Keep responding to random comments without thinking about them and lets see how it works out for your arguments moving forward. In fact, come into random arguments online by calling the other side ignorant despite actually having history on their side.
You're pretending like I did something wrong here. My words from the top are still there and are still correct, and all you've done is waste your own time and shown off the ignorance of the community on this matter. You're not the only one who is hugely ignorant on this subject, I'm just pointing it out, like doing so, and will continue to do so.
You're not going to change anyone's mind about 90s style AR-15 bans with your current attitude or understanding of the issue.
Hmm, to keep responding to see how long you drag this out, or leave and give you the satisfaction of some perceived "final word" like you've won something, or have some kind of superior knowledge that you have yet to actually show?
I guess that depends on how petty I feel today. At least as petty as the person I'm responding to, clearly.
Edit: And you're editing your comments after the fact to change what you've been saying. I'm done dealing with simple minded children.

Okay, we can end here. I got what I want anyway. Feel free to ping me if you ever come up with a real point about AR15 rifles. Or don't, because you're wrong on history and obviously know it.
EDIT: Another point. Someone just shot at a former President with an AR15 rifle from 300 meters during a campaign rally. I think history will prove that I have a right to feel pissy today. Why the fuck did YOU decide that its a good time to come out and defend the AR15 rifle in this time? Read the fucking room dipshit.
I've got you to stop talking about guns on a gun control topic, and have ended with my point before we've gone fully childish.
Its all fun and games at this point baby because you're out of discussion points and are just in childish response phase. I've taunted you with my main point that you apparently find unassailable and are running away from.
So the answer is: as many as it takes. The more responses you give to me, the less likely anyone else clicks into this discussion because we're way past the Lemmy.world range of replies. Its really just you and me at this point, and I'm more than happy to end with a 15+ deep reply chain now, if only to prove the full inability for you to respond to my AR15 point I started with.
The more childish posts you leave me, the better my point becomes that you have nothing on your side of the discussion. So I'm cool keeping up with this. What do you gain from these childish reply wars? I get another AR15 sucks we should ban it post out of it, each time, and you only respond with childish bullshit. And its forever in the record of this discussion.
