At this point, I’m not surprised to find out the shooter in Allen, TX had white supremacy connections. Whatever his motive, the reason people are dead, again, is because this guy had easy access. To guns. This search for a motive is somewhat of a distraction from the clear imperative.Because the decent people all know what needs to be done—universal background checks, assault rifle bans, age limits, and so on—and the people standing in our way aren’t decent.https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/reports/mass-shooting

@TonyStarkIt's so revealing that Musk and the other righties are desperate to prove he wasn't a Nazi.

@TonyStark At least one piece of good news out of Texas-‘Raise the age’ gun bill passes Texas committee after months of advocacy by Uvalde families:https://news.yahoo.com/raise-age-gun-bill-passes-190539465.html"Two Republicans on the Texas House committee voted with Democrats to pass the bill in a 8-5 vote."With Democrats leading the way and activism from the community- things can happen.

@TonyStarkTotally agree, Tony, and glad to see you’ve survived the nature of your reality. It doesn't matter what the murderer’s motives were or what the circumstances were anymore. It would if these murders had that in common.What matters is that another angry, violent (male) with no coping skills was given unrestricted access to weapons of war.Every country in the world has its fair share of unbalanced humans, but only the USA hands out guns and ammo like candy to the same individuals.
