El Paso Shooting

[LogGrad98]

The white myth needs to be destroyed. We do this by abandoning it ourselves, and by laying hold on regional European identifiers to cultivate relatable identities.

Stop calling people white. They are not. There is no white race.

Get a DNA test if you have to start somewhere. Do some family history. We need to obliterate what we’ve become by digging back into what we were when our families arrived here.

I did a dna test. I'm 67% Scandinavian, 32% British, 1% from the Balkans. If white exists I'm about as white as you can get.

None of that changes my point. Passing a law like that goes nowhere. It’s wasted time and effort.

What would be productive is changing the constitution. As I’ve previously said. But that also carries extreme risk.

If we want change we have to be smart about it and do it the right way. Otherwise we simply spin our wheels and go nowhere.

How do you know it would go no where? To me, being smart is taking the risk to change our gun laws and rights we have no. We have a huge problem and it needs to be changed and fixed. What we have now enables mass shootings and gun violence.

I love all the comments about how it's "simple" and "not hard". Then why do we still have mass shootings? Those kinds of comments make me lol. So naive.

Because it is against a SC decision. And not a 5-4 one. It’s already been tried and rejected as against the constitution.

Haynes v US, 7-1 against.

It’s quite complex. Especially with over a dozen SC decisions touching on guns. It’ll most likely require a constitutional convention.

And that is a huge Pandora’s box. And any decision or compromised reached will likely be rejected by millions of people.

Btw, call me crazy, but I think if a mass killer is caught alive, they should be tortured to death. I know it sounds inhumane, and it is, but I got to imagine this would persaud some of the shooters from doing (not all are suicidal.)

In a mass-shooting scenario, whatever law enforcement is on site or can be scrambled, will have weapons drawn. It's pretty suicidal. I'm surprised that the shooters in El Paso weren't taken out, to be honest.

That's what I'm saying should change. I'm not arguing they would. I'm arguing they should if that makes sense.

Me too. Does anyone have info on how he was caught?

Cause the NRA is rich and powerful and cause people love their guns and cause politics.

No one is saying the answers are easy to put in place, just that the answer itself is easy. The plan is easy. Implementing the plan is hard. Being hard doesn't mean shouldn't try though imo

It's not surprising at all, once you remember the shooter was white.

I understand. And the way to do that is changing the constitution. Not passing a registration law.
