Subject: RE: BS: Las Vegas - 50 dead so far
"The point of my post was this: When shootings like this have occurred in the past, the rabid pro-gun faction has been relatively immune. They weren't personally injured. The victims were not among their number. It happened to "them" (gays, blacks, religious minorities, children, toddlers) not "us" (straight white Christians). Well, that asshole was shooting at a bunch of mostly white, Christian, 2nd Amendment supporters. He was shooting at "us", not "them"."

Fascinating.
This is thinking outside the box but unlikely to produce any enlightened laws. I guess I really don't think in terms of us vs them.
I worry this kind of thinking can encourage blaming liberals and a call to civil war from Christian 2nd ammendmenters.

To improve bigger and better shooting of deer without noise the NRA
just so happen need to pass their silencer freedom laws. I'm sure it will silence the shooting of 'dears'.
I doubt silencers will keep these shootings quiet.
