'You don’t care': Twitter bulldozes Ted Cruz for defending guns while 'praying' for Club Q victims

[C_Clayton_Jones]

We're not fooled by those wishing to have communism take over the country, Mr. Jones. If you take guns away from people who cooperate, you get a lot of criminals with guns and no one to fend them off. After all your party pushed defunding the police, and how'd that turn out? Murder rates skyrocketed all over the big cities of this naiton, that's how it turned out.

No, you’re just fools.

 

[beautress]

No, you’re just fools.

Nope. We are patriots to the land where our fathers died, land of the pilgrim's pride, and every mountainside great God our King gave us.

This^ is pure, bullshit on your part. This event MIGHT be some right wing nut job but NO ONE KNOWS that, yet. You are a lying POS for saying so...

Wipe the spit off of your chin and listen up. He has been charged with a hate crime

 

[TheProgressivePatriot]

Really.
Why then do many Democrats support repealing the 2nd amendment and banning handguns?

Over a Third of Democrats Would Repeal Second Amendment | National Review

The survey also showed that a majority of Democrats, 82 percent, are in favor of banning semi-automatic weapons.

Because it is antiquated and vague. It was written for the purpose of allowing armed militia to hunt down run away slaves and at a time when no one could immagine the typs of weapons we now have. . Now you people use it to justify your opposition to common sense gun controll that would keep guns out of the hands of people who should not have guns. Gun ownership should be a privelege like driving. You should have to prove that you are qualified and competent. I would be in favor of updating and replacing the Second Amendment

Ted Cruz once again proves that he is an asshole

'You don’t care': Twitter bulldozes Ted Cruz for defending guns while 'praying' for Club Q victims

It took less than eighteen hours for United States Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) to politicize Saturday night's mass shooting at Club Q in Colorado Springs, Colorado, where a twenty-two-year-old man armed with an "AR-15-style rifle" murdered five people and injured eighteen others before being...

Leftists once again prove they’re assholes politicizing the tragic deaths of American citizens for votes.
Sick mentally I’ll bastards everyone of you.

 

[whitehall]

"Defending guns"? Are lefties that simpleminded about the Constitution?

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

I don't know, just spit-balling here but maybe it would be a real good idea to find out why the DA let the perp off of six violent felony charges in 2021 and then had the records sealed.

That’s not going to get democrats votes therefore it will never happen.

Because it is antiquated and vague.

Ok. So? Why get rid of it? What harm does it do?

It was written for the purpose of allowing armed militia to hunt down run away slaves...

Unsupportable nonsense

and at a time when no one could immagine the typs of weapons we now have. .

Why would G. Washington oppose his frontier families and potential militiamen having an AR15?

Now you people use it to justify your opposition to common sense gun control...

There is no sense, common or otherwise, to be found in unnecessary and ineffective restrictions on the exercise of the right to keep and bear arms by the law abiding.

that would keep guns out of the hands of people who should not have guns.

People who should not have guns will always have the ability to get guns; none of the unnecessary and ineffective restrictions you seek to place on the exercise of the right to keep and bear arms by the law abiding will prevent this.

Gun ownership should be a privilege like driving. You should have to prove that you are qualified and competent.

You do not need a license to buy a car, own a car, keep a car on your property or use a car on private property.
You can own as many cars as you want, and you can buy and sell them freely w/o any sort of permission from the state.
You can commit a crime with a car and you get to keep your other cars. You can even buy more.
In fact, the only time "privilege" comes into play here is when you actually drive the car on public roads.
So much for that.

I would be in favor of updating and replacing the Second Amendment

Do they really? I guess that's why the murder rate in the UK is 1/6th the US murder rate.

Guns in the United States — Firearms, gun law and gun control

Gun law, gun control statistics, number of guns in United States, gun deaths, firearm facts and policy, armed violence, public health and development

www.gunpolicy.org

Gun homicides in the USA 5.9 per 100,000
In the UK the same number is 0.02

Clearly you’d be more comfortable living in the UK. I suggest you move there.

M'kay.
What does this prove?

 

[TheProgressivePatriot]

I explained the harm. You amosexuals interpret it literally as meaning that anyone can own anytype of weapon without resrtriction. The body count is proof

 

[TheProgressivePatriot]

Unsupportable nonsense

The Second Amendment Was Ratified to Preserve Slavery. The real reason the Second Amendment was ratified, and why it says “State” instead of “Country” (the framers knew the difference — see the 10th Amendment), was to preserve the slave patrol militias in the southern states, which was necessary to get Virginia’s vote.

I'll bet a dollar to a donut the shooter was gay...then there goes the narrative

 

[TheProgressivePatriot]

Why would G. Washington oppose his frontier families and potential militiamen having an AR15?

Stupid question. He would have probobly wanted whatever advanced weaponty that he could get for the army. You do not know that he would have wanted it in the hands of civilians

Or just leave it up to the states; let the people of the states decide.

Conservatives are all about “states’ rights.”

 

[Zincwarrior]

It is my bet that Club Q had a ”no guns” policy. Did it have armed guards and if so how many?

I am not sure about Colorado, but it is illegal in Texas to have firearms in a club/bar.

 

[TheProgressivePatriot]

There is no sense, common or otherwise, to be found in unnecessary and ineffective restrictions on the exercise of the right to keep and bear arms by the law abiding.

Unnessary ? Ineffective? That mntra is old and stupid

And there in lies the problem . States that have strict gun laws are still ravaged by gun violence as the result of guns brought in fro the shit hole states. There is no customs or border security between states.

 

[BothWings]

I bet that the victims who were shot wished that they had a gun at the time

Seriously, can you IMAGINE that??? Being a law abiding citizen, turning in your guns to a new "social-democrat" type of regime...and then seeing your family get mowed down by a bad guy with a gun and no respect for the law and being powerless to stop it???

My GOD....
