I eagerly await the Republicans' sane and rational response to this mass shooting. Oh wait, I mean reminding people of this failed Uncle Fester cloning experiment.

This is horrible, shooting politicians is a bad thing and hopefully doesn't become a thing that occurs regularly.ReidRansom posted:I live in Texas and am very familiar with the country. Even in the country people don't usually just have their rifles in their car all the time. I live in Texas and know a few people that always have a gun in their truck.

quote:Alabama Republican Rep. Mo Brooks, who was on the scene, said in an interview on CNN that House Majority Whip Steve Scalise and a congressional aide had been shot. "I heard Steve Scalise scream," Brooks said. "He was shot." And I'm sure, you know, he has sympathy for the victims in there somewhere. But most important thing is that he couldn't shoot the guy.

Former Michigander here. Wish this guy was the one who got shot. Okay...maybe not. I dunno. But Flint was treated as this giant tragedy all my life and then the water problems just made a terrible situation even worse. It's really hosed up.

If "I think it's bad to wish for someone's death" is a bannable opinion then this forum's hyperfucked. (For what it's worth I think it's a very small minority of people here who would be cool with Scalise dying, I really don't think that's the majority opinion)
