Exactly where are we getting this info that country music fans support Trump.  I have a few firends that supported Trump and they are hard rock fans.  I believe the crazy part is that we even think that somone would kill a bunch of people in the name of Trump.  There have been plenty of mass shootings, not sure if any was directly connected to the current president.

I've been seeing shit like this all day on Twitter:

Offtopic, but you really need to unfollow some people on Twitter if you're seeing that kind of stuff.

Not every mass killing is terrorism. It has to have an ideological or political aim. So until there is a clear motive it cannot be terrorism.

You know what, I was just having this discussion yesterday. The disagreement came in whether or not intentions were the important factor in whether or not it's a terrorist attack, or if the outcome is what is important.

well then every act that scares many people is terrorism?

Wow... that is .. the funniest bait and switch ive ever seen.

Regardless, we need to stop wuth the "if he was a minority this would be considered terrorism!" No.. its not terrorism..

So if a shooter isn't dark skinned the logical consequence is that he was a brainwashed sleeper agent?
What.

Or it was a false flag/never happened and everyone was crisis actors (Alex Jones et al).

It's a huge double standard. If the shooter is Muslim or Mexican, Trump would be declaring all out war, bans on huge groups of people, deport people, tear families apart, do whatever it takes, etc. etc. his supporters would be foaming at the mouth for "justice".

But a white dude? Oh ... nothing can be done. Just send your prayers.

When a colored person does it it's an indictment on everyone of that group in America. If a white dude does it, it's a "lone nut". Colored people are not afforded the luxury of being seen as individuals in this country, they get to be grouped together and stigmatized if someone in their group does something terrible, but if it's a white guy, well it's not like there's any calls for white men to be banned or even screened more heavily at casinos, or schools, or movie theaters. 

Being seen as individuals is a luxury that's not afforded to all citizens, plain and simple.

Tell me about it. Bill O'Reilly dismissed the shooting as "the price of freedom" in the US. The tone would have been far different if it would have been someone the color of a paper bag and darker.

There will be people that will dismiss what you say Soundwave but you do speak the truth.  Other groups definitely do not have the luxury or any individual doing something like this not painted as the typical of that group instead of the atypical.

I really wish I could be one of those people that simply doesn't care about politics. This shit is just toxic at this point. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if this crap starts affecting my health.

You're part of the problem. Both sides finger point, but truth is we wouldn't have any of this if people didn't need to shove every political issue up their ass.

I could go 'hurr durr leeburalz blaming white men as usual' or 'religion at peace again lol', but it's nothing more than an idiotic and pathetic attempt at trying to discuss or solve an issue.

Yeah, it's clear people will stick to this identity politics for quite some time. Almost as if the terms 'liberals' and 'conservatives' are used as bogeymen nowadays to hide the fact that they have nothing meaningful to say...

Didn't you start this thread? Hypocrite.

Hypocritical? I'm criticizing insane people, not trump supporters
