And what’s hilarious is that many of these same people fancy themselves “ready for CW II”. LOL!

To do what? Cry in the corner?

The problem with background checks is that health records are considered confidential under Federal law. Conducting a “background check” without having access to mental health records is useless and ineffective ... which is the main reason why Congress supports it.

It will be ‘game over’ if Trump doesn’t shut up about any new background check law/bill.

FR’s boomer bridgade and their gereatric-level hot takes can be as irritating as the anything you hear from the left

And some of them gereatrics can't even spell good.

Maybe some are just too earatable!

President Trump is setting a trap for democrats. He stated in his tweet he wants background checks for guns tied to border security. He knows darn well democrats can’t and won’t give and inch on border security, their base won’t let them. So he can come out in a couple weeks and say, “Hey I tried, I was ready to sign a background check bill, but democrats wouldn’t bend an inch on border security, they most not care about “the children”.”

Some are just people that left FR in 2016 and went to some site called “the GOP briefing Room” basically Nevertrumper Disneyland.

They then pop up back here to try to play the aggrieved Trump voter to gaslight and get the weaker freepers to think it is a trend.

“There was some professor, University of Michigan IIRC, who said that psych exams are needed,”

Scary, huh? Psychiatry isn’t a hard science so anyone will be able to set the nebulous standards and guidelines for mental illness. I don’t like the sound of that.

turn on our President.

We aren't the ones that turned. Bump stock should have been warning enough. The sell out is coming.

What I love about him is that he just put the blame on the media where it belongs, he basically called them the biggest threat to the country.

If they want to stop the mass murders, then start publicly executing condemned murderers like they used to do.
If people don’t watch executions, then there is no deterrent by example. And bring back hangings. These clinically clean executions by lethal injection aren’t a deterrent either.

Any background check is defacto registration.

And when you leave it up to the ‘authorities’ to determine what does or does not constitute ‘mental illness’...

Some ‘authorities’ already want to gas and burn anyone who doesn’t believe CO2 is the cause of every kind of evil...

Looks like Trump just ruined his chances for re-election.........hell for that matter he may have just made the 2nd American Civil War inevitable.
There is NO WAY IN HELL WE WILL GIVE UP OUR 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!
They are the ONLY thing that has kept us from tyranny thus far.
To those who say “Trump is just playing politics” - WAKE THE HELL UP!
He isn’t playing politics, he is giving in to the winds of tyranny and DOESN’T EVEN REALIZE IT.

There is no way on earth all of these mass shootings are coincidence - they are being drummed up somehow, someway - possibly via brainwashing, subliminal messaging, who knows........BUT THEY SURE AS HELL AREN’T COINCIDENCE.

The tactic itself is simple - create enough carnage until the populace is willing to give up their most important God-given rights to make the carnage end.

Reminded of that and that if he loses and satisfies these goons with their rhetoric and to power, I do not give much of him and his family’s legal safety afterwards. They will crucify him as a fool.

President Trump...turn your sights toward mental illness. Dive deep into Psychiatry and its drugs. Look into bringing back sanitariums.
