“God allows wicked people to do bad things that hurt and kill others (free will).”

Truth!

Still, I believe we would be amazed at all the evil things He HAS thwarted.

Didn’t Pelosi say exactly the same thing to the NRA about ‘thoughts and prayers’ after the synagogue shooting in Pennsylvania?

They’ve been using this “thoughts and prayers” sneer for a while.

Western civilization and Western tradition are under assault by Leftists, Muslims, Communists, the media and any group, ideology, religion or nation which is against The People having equal or greater rights, liberties and freedom than their leaders.

The Slavers of history are ascendant, working together agasint the free.

This is somewhat of a copy tactic over the 2011 Norway attack, with Anders Behring Breivik. Breivik also got into this manifesto-type ‘explanation’, used a Mini-14 and Gluck pistol, but had nothing to do with religion. In the Breivik case, he slaughtered mostly kids at a summer camp, who the parents were the politically connected of Sweden. He felt that taking out this generation, would unravel the political mess that was harming Norway.

In this case, the NZ shooter is alive, claims ‘innocence’ and wants the trial to present all of his ideas in a public spectacle. I suspect that the authorities are debating the court business, and intend to just declare him insane.

Having been to NZ (last year), I will say that the south isle in particular has most of its population around Christchurch. There’s just not much crime in the city itself and only a limited number of police. I can’t think of any part of the town that was really unsafe to walk, even at night.

The little Taco Barmaid Princess needs to tell us how the NRA is involved in the shooting in New Zealand. Is she confusing New Zealand with New Orleans?

Did your neighbors also have six? And your neighbor's neighbors as well?

In our Catholic homeschooler community, our family with six kids is about average.

How about you? How many did you have?

Didn’t an armed man in the second mosque the shooter entered stop the nut-job by shooting back?
AOC and her parrots in the media need to be reminded that the real source of “GUN violence” is not in the gun, but the human using it.
Afterall, the media did not talk about “plane violence” on 9/11!

The official name is National Rifle Association Of America. So what does the National Rifle Association Of America have to do with anything that happens in New Zealand, or Norway, or anywhere else?

Communism and Islam are both genocidal ideologies competing for the highest body count. Islam has had 1,400 years to murder hundreds of millions, particularly in India, but Communism has killed at least 100 million in the 20th century alone.

AOC is cordially invited to the place of eternal damnation at her earliest possible convenience. A warm reception is guaranteed.

Well, I found the top quote from the daily mail:

Tarrant said he was a supporter of Donald Trump as a ‘symbol of renewed white identity and common purpose’.

Proof once again that Trump hates everyone that isn’t white. Or something. As to ‘aoc’, has she joined the gaggle of folks who have decided not to procreate. Please. So, tougher gun laws in NZ?

Everything that follows” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.)” can be safely ignored.

I guess the little bug-eyed b*tch doesn’t realize that they HAVE nearly complete gun control in Australia and New Zealand.
