Probably because of the culture of hate that trump enabled.

Crowder somehow got the trans Nashville school shooter's "manifesto".

This is someone with severe mental issues who has also been indoctrinated. A white transman shooting up a school to kill "faggot crackers".

"The slippery slope argument is meaningless."

Slate thinks we should start refusing to let cars go over certain speeds.

People who want to control, rule, push their morals on others, etc. will never stop.

Me (reading the article): Well, there's someone I now hate.

Me (Checking who wrote it): Oh fuck, I know him. We were housemates in college.

He was definitely a liberal then. But honestly, I don't remember anything quite like this. He wrote for the UNC newspaper. We had a bunch of good conversations. Although, he did say "Wow, I can't believe you're from North Carolina" at one point. He was from out of state, and getting into UNC out of state: Very Hard. Getting into UNC in-state: I mean, it was the flagship NC school, but not nearly as hard. So he was basically saying "Most people I've met from NC were dumb."

I beat him 30 straight times in Cribbage over one Summer. 30-0. He never won. I honestly didn't think that was possible.

An unearned and irrational sense of moral and intellectual superiority from someone writing for Slate?

The hell you say...

UNLV shooting was done by an out of work professor.

Article has the standard CNN lies about how many school shootings there are. Remember, they count any shooting incident within a mile of a school.

If his gun was illegal, then he should face charges for that. However, he should be cleared of the shooting.

Mass shooting at a university in Prague.

Impossible. I'm told such things only happen here.

There was a school shooting in Iowa today. 2 dead. One 6 year old and the 17 year old coward.

CNN claims it's the fourth mass shooting of the year. Proving, yet again, that their definition of "mass shooting" is politically motivated.

Talk about your slippery slopes...

While I absolutely think they have some responsibility for being shitty parents...
In particular, prosecutors have accused the gunman’s parents of disregarding the risks when they bought a gun for their son four days before the shooting, even though he was struggling with his mental health and contemplating violence. They also say the parents did not mention the gun to school officials in a meeting to discuss Ethan’s disturbing drawings just hours before the fatal shooting.
I'm also very much of the belief that people act on their own accord. Yes, they gave him the means, but he ultimately made the choice.

I don't trust our society to not make this "a thing", but at the same time maybe if parents started being held financially and criminally liable for the actions of the monsters they raise, maybe people will try harder to be good parents?
