Thomas is very consistent on being opposed to gun control, federal or otherwise (cf Heller) - federal doubly so because this is Clarence Thomas we're talking about. Scalia or Alito might conceivably dissent, depending on how they felt that day and whether Alito's fondness for police states outweighed his desire to keep the 2nd amendment undiluted.

Trump is actually catching some heat for his call in advocating for a literal war crime in specifically targeting the families of anyone associated with terrorists. Including a former Israeli minister for Netanyahu of all people saying that Trump is advocating things that would make us no better than the terrorists.

I thought Zimmerman was married since his wife got in some trouble hiding evidence or something back during the trial. Surprised him getting divorced was bigger news if that was true. Of course I could just have totally missed it being a thing.

Of course I could just have totally missed it being a thing. The police responded to a domestic abuse call (and then the charges were dropped), so that may have something to do with the situation. It was not particularly a thing.

I want Trump to win the nomination to see if he gets the fabled percentage of voters that always vote Republican no matter what. I have a suspicion that a lot more Republicans are willing to vote for a terrible, racist, joke candidate as long as he's on their team than serious political commentators would like us to believe.

Yes because preventing the mass murder of children and a shoot outs like it's the wild loving west are not good reasons to control who has guns. Why would people think those are good examples of things we should be trying to prevent?

There's literally dozens of other shootings you can list that match the criteria of 1 to 2 people killed but like 6 or more injured and it was in fact a mass shooting. Congress want's to cherry pick the way it determines mass shootings. By defining it as 3 or more people killed you basically ignore injury. Under that definition this was not a mass shooting: http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/police-investigate-orleans-shooting-left-16-wounded-35367005

There really isn't any good reason to not say that Trump advocates the murder of innocent babies, children, and the elderly- because that is what "going after families" entails. E: Also I'd love to ask him what he thinks of the idea of Putin targeting Ivanka. I mean, if the gloves are really off, Putin is in a whole different realm when it comes to "negotiating."
