But can someone explain to me why is it every time there's a school shooting and when liberal politicians want stricter gun control, conservatives always say "Now is not the time to talk about gun control" or "We shouldn't politicize this and think only about the victims"..then they go on to say guns is not the problem, and banning guns will not stop shootings because there's always some random crazy person that you can't always stop.. Yet whenever there's a terrorist attack, Conservatives go straight to "It's time to politicize this and get tough on immigration!" or "BAN MUSLIMS" when shouldn't we also say that the religion is not the problem either and that there's always crazy people within an extreme philosophy too??....

Mead 05/08/17 2:58:18 AM #2:	Because right wing talk radio instills a consistent fear into them that someone is tryig to take their guns away, because that creates an atmosphere where they buy guns like crazy, which is exactly the way gun manufacturers like it. Literally the first thing I heard a person say after Obama was elected was a stranger saying that he just heard on the radio that he was going to try and take our guns away. --- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mead "because I like to troll" -yourDaddie <cite>Mead posted [p:878682667] in Can someon...
