It's like the new dress up, go pose with guns and "protest" but nobody really wanna have it go there.
Stop prodding eachother you damn morons.
Maybe someone should pop some fireworks next time to see what happens?

How does being anti Muslim make them racists. A lot of people are anti Christian but I've never heard those people called racist.
No one called them racist as far as I know they were labeled a hate group, this does not necessitate being a racist.

Democrats hate Republicans. The Democratic party is a hate group.

So what's the solution in a nation and state where the right to open carry is ranted about by so many?
Like it or not, if one group has the right so do others, no one gets to claim that their "Constitutional rights" are theirs alone.
And funny too that the original "protestors" are so quick to scream about the Constitutional rights while ignoring that whole thing about FREEDOM OF RELIGION.
Sadly, until America gets over this fetish with guns you're always going to have the risks of things like this happening. It's the price you pay for this obsession. There is no way I can see of mitigating this risk unless you start to take common sense action against public displays of your gun fetish.

Yeah.
Because they aren't gonna kill each other without someone goading them into it, right?
THAT'LL make people happy, I think.

Americans and their guns. The whole world is laughing at you.
Build the walls around your borders, let everyone get a gun and we'll come back to clean up what's left of your country in 5-10 years.

There have been guns in the US since the nation was formed.
We're all still here.

Population is increasing, so is life expectancy, gun ownership rates are so high they shatter records monthly, yet violent crime is at a 50 year low, and continuing.
I think you're avoiding those data sets because they don't jive with your idea of what goes on in the US.

When a toddler shoots and kills themselves or another person is that considered a "violent crime"?
Or do you just avoid those data sets?
