Wasn't a Muslim or Mexican? Guess nothing can be done then, just one of those darn "lone wolfs" (gee schucks). If it was a Mexican, the Wall would be 20 feet taller, calls for mass deportations, and crack downs, Trump would have a seizure twittering if it was a Muslim, and all people of those groups would be demonized fifty ways to Tuesday.

When Sandy Hook came and went, and no one did anything after school kids were gunned down, nothing was ever going to change.

NRA owns politicians via payoffs, so basically nothing will be ever done, even when there is broad consensus among Democrats and even Republican voters on several common sense gun restrictions (like not allowing mentally ill people to gain access to guns among several other restrictions). Just gotta get used to it happening every 6-18 months.

What are you rambling on about? We still don't know the motive behind this. But I bet you didn't go and such a rant after the Orlando shooting ot am I incorrect?

I'm "rambling on" about the hypocrisy in how these situations are dealt with based on who the shooter is. 

Even in case of Orlando, IMO there are strong signs that was a "lone nut" shooter, dude visited a gay bar for several years, had dating profiles on gay websites, but is also an ISIS member? More likely he wanted to go on a shooting spree and just pinned the whole thing on being an religious extremist. 

But the difference is an entire group is indicted/judged on the actions of one person in those situations, but if it's a "crazy lone white guy" ... it's a completely different reaction especially from the political class in this country. "Nothing can be done, nothing to see here folkes, just send your prayers" blah, blah, blah.
