I'm not saying Trump is THE reason for this. He is, however, doing his part to normalize and legitimize attitudes of hate and disgust for the "other." That is making these loons feel emboldened and they're coming out of the woodwork all over the world.[/QUOTE
Sure you are, however subtle your lame attempt may be it’s as plain as the nose on your pathetic face.
Now you've done it!There is a common thread between almost every one of these mass shooters but nobody wants to talk about it and people get offended when it’s brought up.
This guy might be an exception but almost every mass shooter here in the states was on or had been on ADD medication and/or some type of anti-depressant drug.
Yeah he shoots people just huddled in corners. Pretty terrible and sad. I watched a little with no volume..I can't watch that stuff and hear people screaming. Someone mentioned it looked like a first person shooter game. It didI haven't seen the full video yet but I saw a 2:20 clip of him listening to Rule Britannia while getting out of the car and walking in and starting to shoot. At one point someone tries to jump him and he shoots them at point blank range.
Two examples in eight years. There's at least three grammatical mistakes in that one tweet.
When's the last stoning you've witnessed by a group of Christians?Ffs. This is you argument?
Here's a nice passage from the Bible about stoning unmarried women who aren't virgins. Is that part of Christianity?
"But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel: Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you." (Deuteronomy 22: 20-21)
Big pharma is the real enemy!There is a common thread between almost every one of these mass shooters but nobody wants to talk about it and people get offended when it’s brought up.

Fine, then how do we keep them from committing acts like these without restricting the rights of others?
Or maybe we stop using drugs to mask plain old discipline problems?
Muslims legitimize people's hate towards them pretty well on their own.I'm not saying Trump is THE reason for this.

This is what makes linking mental illness with 2nd amendment rights so difficult. No one wants a mentally unstable person to have access to firearms but it's not a thin line.I’m not sure the conclusion is right but I think you may be on to something with the medication.
My experience with mental health treatment (I’ve reviewed a lot of records, as you can imagine...) is that most of the time it goes something like this:
1. You go to a clinic as a new patient with no existing diagnosis. You spend 45 minutes with a Ph.D., if your lucky a Psy.D. You tell them your subjective complaints, they give you a diagnosis and prescribe you some medication and counseling.
2. You go back and see a social worker or licensed therapist and they talk to you about your problems and make recommendations to whoever you saw the first time.
3. Therapist may make recommendations to the doctor
Meanwhile, if I order a properly done psych evaluation for one of my clients to try to establish diminished capacity, it takes like 20 hours over multiple visits of interviews and testing and sometimes multiple doctors. The degree of commentary and support for the diagnosis that I get is always reflective of the increased time and training.
Obviously, it’s not financially sustainable for most people to have the second type of procedure, but it seems amazing to me how little time is spent with somebody before prescribing them medication and I have serious questions whether somebody who is, say, bipolar, who is on an anti-depressant because they’ve been improperly diagnosed, would be more prone to acts of rage etc. because their ability to feel empathy or remorse is being dulled by drugs.
That’s totally personal, non-scientific opinion, I haven’t been able to find published support for it but, at least in this country, we’re ****ing with people’s brain chemistry without any real understanding of what is going on up there. It’s irresponsible.
Also, hat tip for recognizing that not everybody with mental health problems is a potential mass murderer and respecting their freedom.
Joe at some Wheaties this mornin'.Instead of an answer, you do like Obama and try to turn anything a Muslim does into something bad about christians. It's a simple question, and not one of you can answer cause you know good and well that it'll prove you are a hypocrite. Pathetic response from someone who claims to be so smart. Why not answer my question cupcake?
I doubt Obama tweeted himself.You're right to an extent. Grammar and language are suffering all over from a lot of people, and putting/determining intelligence into context along these lines isn't possible anymore.
My dad is a Nuclear and Chemical Engineer and has more degrees than space can allow, and he's the smartest guy I have ever met and he'd be considered elemantary level. But, I get the point from your post and it is funny.
