19 students, 3 adults dead in Texas elementary shooting.

Yep. That was a contrasting example of the two at a time within reach of the Nov 8 election that will stay with people.

Francis just flushed more of his dwindling support down the toilet.

It will play well with his hardcore supporters.

The press conference prior to and after his rant was about the families; resources to help those impacted and delivery of information about what happened. Beto made it about his political agenda.

No doubt. But there aren’t enough hardcore supporters to get Francis elected. He’s already behind in every poll you see. And those antics will alienate more Texas moderates than it attracts

I won't profess to be an expert, but info I can find said Texas alone had over 160 gunfights in the latter 1800's.

Well, 160 really doesn't sound like a lot compared to today.

The kid had no real parental figures in his life. His mom had drug issues and run ins with the law, and his father obviously isn't around from what I've read. He had no stable home life. These things affect teens enormously. Sounds like he had no social life and sat in his room all the time.

We should restrict mating and parenting. Only those who can pass a BGC are allowed to have children.
Be better than more gun laws.

Abbott doubling down on mental health as the driver. He’s on target I believe too.

The difficult part is that we can't just flip a switch and change society. If you want two parent homes with more parental interaction, it's going to have to involve an evolution of the workforce so that both parents don't have to work to support the family financially. It's going to take subdivisions and neighborhood design that includes common recreational spaces in walking distance for its citizens. It's going to take a combination of parents monitoring and entertainers performing material that doesn't glorify sex, violence, and drugs.

Rampant individualism is going to have to minimize itself and we're going to have to start living in community again. Shared values, shared experiences, shared oversight.

I view giving birth to and then not actively raising undisciplined heathen kids as a much bigger threat to the country than “unfettered access” to firearms. I could get behind this.

 

[evillawyer]

Well, this just happened

 

[utvolpj]

I want to know why in the **** someone can buy body armor? Bears and deer are not shooting at you. The only reason to purchase that is because you expect to be taking heavy fire. Also, an 18 year old should not be allowed to buy a fireman, period. Bunch of larping pussies with their Billy Badass ARs running around.

But they can vote and be drafted?

Low IQ, Low EQ, and Low character individuals are made sterile at puberty.

 

[hog88]

Well, that wasn't too bright by either one of you. What if you really had been a school shooter? Was he going to give you a demerit?

A paddling

 

[AshG]

Well, this just happened

Damn. That was neither the right time nor right place. Glad he was removed.

 

[Wireless1]

He's such a douchebag. He's an embarrassment to the country.

He’s in enormous company on both sides of the aisle in DC

 

[0nelilreb]

Damn. That was neither the right time nor right place. Glad he was removed.

Just looking for a all mighty sound byte to have when he does his rounds on the talk shows like the view .

Performance politics. Yep, what fun.

What was he confronting about?

We would be a country of females if that happened , not many of us would have made the cut .

 

[AshG]

What was he confronting about?

Interrupting a Thoughts and Prayers press conference to yell at the governor.

 

[NorthDallas40]

Well, this just happened

Francis endearing himself to Texas voters and showing what an effective charismatic leader he is. I hope he continues this approach of self destruction as his political career continues to circle the toilet drain.

This is the type of thing that makes Evil feel all good inside.

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

What is the matter with owning body armor?

Why would one need body armor?

 

[McDad]

We would be a country of females if that happened , not many of us would have made the cut .

You would have made the cut. Cut your vas deferens.

 

[NorthDallas40]

Interrupting a Thoughts and Prayers press conference to yell at the governor.

So that’s a stupid hot take and you should know better. The presser was for distribution of information. That idiot Francis made a stupid political grand stand and hurt himself more than helping anything.

Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin shouted at O'Rourke as well, calling him a "sick son of a b!tch."

 

[NorthDallas40]

Damn. That was neither the right time nor right place. Glad he was removed.

Ok that is a much better take.
