Where those 4 “LGBTQ” ones all this year as well? Not that it changes the point that much

I've no idea and less Interest in finding out. The righteous right are full of ****e.

I ask because I saw something earlier claiming 4/2980 (or something like that). But not sure what period the close to 3000 incidents covered

These people will shamelessly manipulate whatever tragedy to suit their agenda and do so at high volume. It doesn't take much to repudiate or debunk their posts or media articles.

Why haven’t you just quoted the right wing talking head that you have taken this from pretty much word for word?

Also that is 4 cases. Some of which are debatable as to whether that was really the identification of the people. 4 out of how many? Depending on the period you use it is hundreds if not thousands. This is not an issue of trans or gender politics but a broader one related to a mix of mental health crisis and gun control/access

The key point there is mental health crisis.

These woke people are true narcissists who have victim mentality complex. Pronouns, gender dysphoria, all of it eventually leads to one outcome: feeling completely disillusioned with society. These people are being told that the police and government hate them and want to exterminate them etc.

If this was an ultra right wing mass shooter, it would be rightly mentioned. So it’s definitely fair game to mention this.

Ultimately it’s impossible to understand the motives of someone so evil; but not caring correctly for mentally ill people, regardless of their political beliefs is the problem. Whether they’re left or right you have to assume they hate society as a whole to do something so barbaric.

Sadly the progressives aren’t immune to ghoulish statements in trying to point score after such events. David Pakman’s tweet on this shooting is really quite awful. And his is one of the progressive channels I tend to follow the most

I can’t copy it at the moment as my connection is appalling

The tweet you mentioned basically perfectly encapsulates why the “progressive” woke left are just as bad as Tucker Carlson etc.

They think they are the height of virtue and that they care more about others than everyone else. Therefore in their minds this justifies whatever they say. They have so much hate for those on the right that they become more evil than the right. Nothing liberal or progressive about them.

My dude, you regularly post about how disillusioned you are with society because a shadowy cabal consisting of the World Economic Forum and Bill Gates and perhaps lizard people are controlling the government and want to do Bad Things. The difference is that states are literally passing legislation targeting trans and queer people, whereas absolutely no one is coming for you.

I must have missed all the action on Labour stopping Jezzer from being able to run for his seat or something. I will have a thumb back through the pages as i fully expect the 99% of lefties on here to be actively discussing a major event in the Labour Party to be fully disclosed and discussed.

Literally only one post about it.

Must be those pesky two boys I have on ignore, i image they haven’t stopped going on about anything else all day

Irony at its finest.
The Daily Mail, that rag that leads the fight to destroy the Human Rights Act, has invoked the Human Rights Act to stop other media outlets from naming their journalists and executives who have been involved in illegal behaviour for decades.
You couldn’t make it up.

Yeah. It seems like it's more exciting to argue about what's going on in the US rather than discuss the policies that's, one step at a time, taking away our own democracy.

 

[All_Southampton_FC]

It’s tricky and the reason given for the motion was odd, but imo a party leadership does need the ability to veto candidates where necessary in order to effectively strategise and I can see why Corbyn is seen as a liability on the National stage.

I say this as someone who agrees that he was stitched up by the media and fellow politicians, but he is just too politically naive and allowed himself to be tarred. If he had responded to the EHRC Report appropriately I believe he would still have the Labour whip.

I think his response to the Ukraine conflict and involvement in the stop the war coalition has just buried him even further.

He will probably win Islington North as an independent and fair enough. But on a National level he just allowed himself to become a millstone around the party’s neck and potentially an electoral asset for the Tories.

I get what you're saying but I don't agree with it. I don't like the impression it sets; stay in line or get banned.

The Nashville shooter was under doctor's care for emotional problems, and their family did not believe they should possess guns given that, but in most US states, there is no legal process for guns to be confiscated (even temporarily) unless a person has already committed a felony, so the police had to simply wait until they killed people.

This exact same situation has played out in several other massacres. It was known that they had guns. It was known that they were increasingly erratic and potentially very dangerous. But in America, guns >>> everything else, so what can you do.

These trans and ultra left wing types are mentally ill. Yet instead of being cared for properly they are being told that their delusions are real and society is out to erase them.

Hmm, I wonder where they get that crazy idea from?...


Michael John Knowles (born March 18, 1990) is an American conservative political commentator, actor, author, and media host. He has worked for The Daily Wire since 2016.

Personal Beliefs on Transgenderism
In February 2023, Knowles called for the elimination of transgenderism, arguing that those who identify as transgender are "laboring a delusion, and we need to correct that delusion". At the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in March, he further stated that "there can be no middle way in dealing with transgenderism", and that "for the good of society, transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely."[2] His comments were criticized by several media figures, including civil rights attorney Alejandra Caraballo, interpreting them as "genocidal".

I think in posts passim there were a number of comments regarding the Guardian's founders involvement in the slave trade. The owners, the Scott Trust, recognise this have apologised and announced a decade-long programme of restorative justice. I read some of the accompanying articles that highlight some of the anomalies that go with the history surrounding the subject. Quite a bit to get through but well worth the effort.

Well as we have now seen multiple mass killings of school children thanks to these people, he’s not wrong is he.

Clearly there is a link between people who have gender dysphoria & wanting to murder innocent people that should be heavily investigated.

The clear link here is the glaringly obvious one between mass shootings and easy access to firearms.

The clear link here is the glaringly obvious one between mass shootings and easy access to firearms.

Not to mention 2 rather obvious statistics:
The vast majority of historic mass shootings were not carried out by people with gender dysphoria.
The vast majority of people with gender dysphoria have never carried out a mass shooting, or committed any other violent crime.

So what is your final solution to deal with "these people"?...
