Way to go Texas

I'll go middle of the road on his hip twist, and say he's a man that desires above all adulation and flattery from those around him, and at that moment he was getting it. By the time he did his jig, all thoughts of reading the names on that list were far behind him. He was being worshiped, and his little one-step was to show his misplaced appreciation. If you wonder why we on the left call you righties "the cult", this tiny frolic is why.

It was a tactical vest with extra ammo. Not body armor.
Either way, aim for the head.

You're taught to shoot center of mass as the biggest target that easiest to aim at in a swift motion. The head moves around too much to shoot at, and when it is hit makes a huge nasty mess. Even with body armor, getting hit in the chest and belly is no fun, it really hurts like shit.

Remember, even with training (which a lot of cops get minimal amounts of), head and legs are hard to aim at, and often don't kill. It's like the old joke about hitting the broad side of a barn, and with many cops and their shitty training, you don't want them missing and shooting each other and nearby innocent targets. Which many will do anyway, sadly.

I know this, I also know that inside a room which was probably 30 feet across it is much easier to hit a smaller target.
As for the mess.......

So I’m reading Twitter and a recurring story has TFG speaking @ the NRA show and he reads the names of the children killed. After he is done he dances.

What in the fuck?

Celebration Time, Woohoo...

I call bullshit.

Of course you do. Bless your heart.

Got a full clip or just one where he starts dancing?

My guess is you fucks got played again. So gullible when it comes to anything Donny. Yes, he probably read the names...then half an hour later after speechifying on numerous other things he danced. But of course The Left wants it to be DANCING RIGHT AFTER HE READ THE NAMES!!!!11!111!

I just ran through 8 news outlets online including the usual liberal ones and not a single one mentions anything about this. Gullible indeed.

My heart is fine, thanks for your concern.
How is your throat, since you swallowed that hook, line and sinker?

But it is likely the dance occurred sometime after the part of his speech that named the victims. It even says he danced at the end. Any kind of celebration right now does seem inappropriate to me though.

P.S. Why is everything italicized here?

[Bluespruce1964]

Are they? Because I've grown up watching this shit and it's the same handful of canned answer bandaids every time, and most of the clamoring comes down to background checks. They've existed a long time and nothing has changed, and what other readily available information is there to be pulled?

This is what a political battle looks like when one side of the fight outspends its opposition by over 150x and has the power to defeat politicians for their stance on a single issue.

This shit isn't going away with legislation but legislation can be part of the change needed to stop this madness. HR 8 passing would be a moral victory more than anything.

Close to 25% of gun sales are exempt from federal background checks. Most citizens (pro gun side included) believe federal BCs should done on all gun sales. Yet it has been impossible to get it voted into law by the Senate. All because the NRA is against it and makes their political contributions to leaders that will fight it.

Look at what is happening this weekend, the same Texan leaders that were publicly mourning the dead this week are going to be speaking at the NRA's lobbying wing party in Houston. The NRA is so powerful that they don't even have to play by the same rules as everyone else. Obviously postponing the event would be the right move but that's not how they roll. Flaunting their power and holding events in close proximity to massacres and days after the tragedies is their M.O.. They think they are untouchable.

All I'm saying is if you look at the source of the guns in most school shootings, and even mass shootings overall, the guns were obtained through legal means and proper channels were followed by someone. If you lump in gang mass shootings, the same applies but the initial purchase is usually a straw purchase. Expanding background check laws to private sales isn't going to do anything to stop the act.

BRR is right about controlled movement being one of the best solutions. But that just means kids are going to grow up in borderline correctional institution environments thinking that shits normal. Truly sad but meaniful change to curb this isn't possible at this point. I agree that the Reps are absolute shitstains in this whole mess, but Dems are going to shoot themselves in the foot by yet again trying to treat symptoms instead of the disease. In this case that would mean stripping away more bits of an amendment while everyone's already pretty fucking hot right now. It's gonna get uglier

Why is no one talking about the teacher that looked out of a door that was propped open with a chair, saw a gunman coming toward the school, called 911 as she went back into the school, and left the door propped open with the chair. That door is locked for outside entry when its closed. That's the door the gunman came in through.

I get that the cops fucked up after the shit started. But, this entire event might have been avoided if that door had been closed (like i'm sure the school rules state).

So a gun can’t be used to shoot off a lock?

Why is it so hard to admit there is a problem with gun purchases in the USA?

first of all, no one comes up to a locked door with a rifle and tries to shoot off the lock. Good grief.

I should really try to think of something that could be done with gun purchases that might help. And you should read more and post much much less. especially when you are drunk.

And to throw another incendiary onto the bonfire, it was announced (I haven't seen it mentioned again- maybe they wised up) that sometime next week, President Biden will be visiting Uvalde to "offer comfort to the grieving town". Oh Boy. 60 miles from the border that he refuses to visit where 100's of thousands of illegals are trying to flood the border due to his immigration policies. To visit a town deep in the heart of Texas, where if his approval ratings nationwide are in the mid-30's, I'm pretty sure you can imagine how much he is hated there. Talk about the chance of things getting ugly fast. His handlers need to really rethink that.

Even if it was a half hour later like Cheezy implied (it wasn't, it was a little over 10 min after the name reading), most adults understand that this wasn't the time or the place for his stupid fucking dance. Speaking there at all is a questionable decision. Especially when he basically turned it into a campaign rally for an election in 2 years.

PS. I used my Mod powers and fixed your post.

I don’t blame everyone for trying to push this down to pages unknown. But I just read a story from one of the surviving classmates and the time to go with the 5 day news cycle has ended

As far as I know he hasn't been here either, would be fun to see what happens

Biden should ignore Uvalde. Got it.
