Don't you want to hear their story? 🙄
/s
Only if their story is, "AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-UGH".
The same Constitution that guarantees Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness?
The Declaration of Independence
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Carrying a weapon, for your own, or even for OTHERS' safety, should in NO WAY be considered disrespectful. In fact, it is DISRESPECTFUL to deny us that RIGHT, without providing ARMED GUARDS!
WARNING: VERY GRAPHIC 🚨
This is the piece of # that took innocent lives today in #AllenTexas
Thank GOD that a brave police officer ran into the line of fire to kill this demon.

Again, how are those severe gun control laws working?
Plenty of liberals moving to Texas, just ask people from Austin.
I heard some pretty liberal corporations have moved and are planning to move here too, how does that work?

Multiple sources say this is the home where the suspected shooter lived along with his parents.
The agents have been inside talking to his family. They have also asked for a translator.
FBI agents showed up Saturday evening, neighbors said, and have been there ever since. They say the suspected shooter is in his 30s and has lived here for as long as anyone can recall. They say he drives a gray Charger that was always parked in front -- except in the last few weeks, when they noticed he had not been around.
Neighbors say they don’t recall any police activity or problems at the residence.
At this time, the suspect's name is not being released at this time because his identity and connection to the shooting in Allen has not yet been officially confirmed.
But neighbors say the suspect always wore some kind of security guard uniform, although no one says they ever saw him with any kind of weapon. They say he was very quiet, but they say they did notice certain unusual behavior.

Texans aren't happy about it.
Why do liberals move to places that others like and change them to the places they moved away from because their own policies have made those places unliveable?
It seems to me that if liberal policies ruin the places they live in, they would leave the hell alone.
It's like someone craps the bed and then moves into a clean bed and is dissatisfied with why the bed is clean, so they crap it all over again, and then get disgusted by the crap so they move to the next clean bed and repeat the process. It's insane. It also doesn't work.
Sanders added that she’s “excited” to welcome more people into the state–provided they are cisgender, straight, preferably white, Christian, and Republican.
“Our door is open,” she said. “We’re going to keep taking them as long as they remember why they left those blue states in the first place.”
While 2021 saw the highest total number of gun deaths in the U.S., this statistic does not take into account the nation’s growing population. On a per capita basis, there were 14.6 gun deaths per 100,000 people in 2021 – the highest rate since the early 1990s, but still well below the peak of 16.3 gun deaths per 100,000 people in 1974.
The gun murder rate in the U.S. remains below its peak level despite rising sharply during the pandemic. There were 6.7 gun murders per 100,000 people in 2021, below the 7.2 recorded in 1974.
Previous estimates of domestic guns in circulation have ranged widely, from 100 million to 200 million. The new BATF study took annual production and import figures from 1899 and 1989, subtracted the number of legal exports and came up with 201,837,000. In 1950, the figure was 54 million, and in 1970 it was 104 million.
