Right, yeah, I don't know that you could make the radicalization argument. Probably not admissible information even as an ancillary argument for denial of gun purchase.
Pew pew pew Buffalo, NY- why was this thread closed

Scary thing is ICE, NSA, FBI, etc. Probably have access to enough information already to predict who are threats and not to be allowed firearms.
What % of white people benefitted from the economic system of slavery? Otherwise even if they didn't like it they tolerated it and benefited.
I think that is about the only argument too, but the internet is good about leaving breadcrumbs around so if someone wants that stuff they will get there.
It will be interesting to see the encryption debate in the coming years. I am hoping we can maintain some of our remnants of privacy, but if I had to guess someday there will be a tragic event in which the government makes a law that mandates they have access to be able to decrypt communications and data and control and remove entities from DNS, app stores, etc.
Chode, my bad usually ignore him. Something something how many white folks owned slaves etc. As a defense for them.
I love that one. Classic.
CSB:
I visited an old wealthy family’s estate in NC that owned slaves and the people there doing the tour were justifying slavery talking about how well they were treated.
Go to George Washington's home. Here's the room where they pulled out the best slave's teeth for George and family's replacements.
Bill O Reily had a nice segment on how well the slaves that built DC were kept. Which were at complete odds with Abigail Madison's accounts. You know the first lady who was present for the construction of the White House. Yet people read Bill's series like it wasn't historical fiction. Crazy.
You bring up a great point - every single one of us lives in the government's system of economic slavery via taxation and inflation, just fyi.
In fact, I'll bet you're mentally gearing up for a another shitty day at work tomorrow just to feed your family.
But let's stay focused on 1866.
You are free to leave for a more accommodating government without taxes or inflation slavehawk
Sorry of making the mistake of dropping in on one of your feel facts. Really don't care about anything u post. Have a lovely day.
But I think you do care. I guarantee you'll be thinking about me while you're working your ass off tomorrow.
Do you have a frigging clue how many are leaving? Get back to me in about a decade with how that attitude worked out for you! 🤣

Like I said, Larger Metro areas, blue..........everything else.....Red.

That sounds just horrible! They aren't still doing that in 2022, are they.....you know 250 years later??! I wonder how the North American Native Americans treated their slaves at the time?? How did the American slaves, treat their slaves back home in Africa before they themselves became slaves? Lastly, on a historical global basis, how were slaves treated in comparison to the relatively short window of slavery in America? Is the evil white man of North America the last group of scoundrels to escape the payment of "reparations?" Hard questions, I know, but try to reply with something better than "white man bad."

Look, I think the solution is rather simple. Even if gun laws can't be tightened, there has to be better traceability on gun sales and transfers, including at unregulated gun shows and family hand me downs. And, a minimum test to prove that you are mentally sane. That's not asking for much, nor does it infringe the 2nd amendment.
My guess is that many knew this guy was nuts, including his parents, siblings and members of the community. Someone should have said something. This is a repeating pattern in mass shootings.

Oh and BTW that lunatic killed an old lady who volunteered at a food pantry every day for like 25 years
this is what you call far right racist white supremacy folks

Was replying specifically to one person's talking point about slavery in the 1800's that's all. Nothing more. Have a good one.
You have have a difficult time naming countries where slavery wasn’t part of their past.
most countries fazed out slavery because it didn’t work from an economic perspective. Rarely was it some noble movement.
Keep my name out of your denture filled nasty mouth.
Ya know...........he's a bit crass with how he gets the point across, but, in this particular instance....he isn't wrong.
Go ask the Egyptians how they managed the largest slave group ever known to man kind. I think that's his point. America wasn't the first to own slaves. They were likely the last. (if you don't count the Cartels).
