| Another mass shooting. This one in Jacksonville at a laundry facility. Almost a month after the Jacksonville Landing massacre. |
Okay, six people were shot in an apparent gang-affiliated shooting. Mind you that the terrorists who committed this act are still on the loose at present time.
So once again, America is dealing with the umpteenth mass shooting. This one will not be covered by the junk food media. It's not a school shooting. It's not a missing white girl. It's not an issue where the agitators can blame Muslims or white extremists. It's the right wing playbook.
Black On Black Crime.
The right constantly reminds their supporters that it's the fault of Barack Obama, Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Eric Holder and Black Lives Matter. Even though they have no control over how a person would commit criminal acts, they're fingered because they're the only Black people the right seems to often target in their word vomit.
Another mass shooting in Jacksonville, Florida. The suspects were caught. Who will take the blame for this? (Expect the dumbest answers to be picked by trolls)
The victims -- five men, one woman -- ranged in ages from "their 20s to 70s," the spokesman said. The vehicle carrying the suspect or suspects was a silver gray sedan and possibly a Nissan Altima or Maxima, the Sheriff’s Office spokesman said.

The cowards did a drive-by shooting. They didn't care who they've hit or the lives they've taken.
All they care about was their precious manhood and their bond to a bunch of ignorant assholes.
Only in Florida, where gun violence is off the chain. The state had vigilantes murdering thieves.
The state allowed individuals shoot and kill unarmed citizens because the individual wanted to "stand their ground."
The state allowed mass shooters into our schools and libraries. The only way for us to prevent gun violence is "thoughts and prayers" and "my heart going out to" cliches.
I am tired of "thoughts and prayers." They won't heal the wounded. They won't bring back the dead.
I am tired of politicians telling us that "now isn't the time to talk about gun violence."
I am tired of politicians and media agitators on the right acting condescending around Black people. I don't think it's their place to tell me how to raise my child or how to live my life. I thought they were all about "freedom."
The terrorist who shot those innocent lives had probably purchased the firearm legally. So don't give me that bullshit about illegal firearms. In Florida, it's an open carry state and you have a lawful right to carry. Once you use a firearm in a criminal act, that voids your Second Amendment right.
I am also tired of people claiming that Black Lives Matter supporting the deaths of law enforcement.
Police officers know the risk. They could go without ever firing their service weapon. They could go without a police chase. They could go without physical injury from biting, hand contact or blood borne pathogens. They could retire without an incident. Or they could be shot and killed. The badge doesn't protect a cop from a bullet. The bullet will always hit something. Law enforcement know the risk of death when they are doing pull overs and domestic violence calls.
So let's be clear here. I believe in the right to bear arms. However, I am not supportive of semi-automatic firearms in the hands of civilians.
Gun hoarders are potential terrorists.
Are you fired up?
You registered to vote?
Let's do this.
Are you going to vote?
VOTE EARLY.
VOTE ABSENTEE BALLOT.
VOTE NOVEMBER 6, 2018.
Restore sanity to the country. Under Trump, people of color are suffering. With white people calling the law on Black people minding their business, it appears infuriating that we allow our lawmakers to continue to justify this. Paul Ryan, Steve King, Louie Gohmert, Mark Meadows, Kevin McCarthy, Jim Jordan, Greg Gianforte, Devin Nunes and the rest of the Republicans are getting their talking points from the same bunch of folks who profit off dividing this country.
The Republicans are using the same old tired playbook given to them by Rush Limbaugh, Sean "Softball" Hannity, The Drudge Report, Fox News and Breitbart. They are fully engaged in the culture war.
Instead of talking about the economy, the demise of Sears/Kmart, gun violence, the continuous Brett Kavanaugh hearing or the failure to fix immigration. They rather get you upset over comments made by entertainers and opinion agitators. The Republican Party is accepting white extremism within its ranks.
The Republican Party has control of the White House, Congress, state governorships and the junk food media. Why are they complaining about the obstruction from the Democrats?
They control almost everything.
They are hoping that we forgot that all three branches of government are controlled by Republicans. You can't blame the Democrats when you control the keys to the car. You can't blame the Democrats when you're in charge of an agenda.
They want to ignore the fact that they've failed to govern during the budget resolutions. They were responsible for passing legislation that hurts the middle class, farmers and small business owners.
The Republicans forgot that they were the ones who shut down the government. The Republicans had a majority of House and Senate lawmakers. How come it's the Democrats fault when a handful of "Freedom Caucus" members stalled legislation to fund the government?
They were the ones who supported the removal of children from immigrants crossing the border. Yeah, explain that to people who vote Republican and speak in languages other than English. Using our military to protect the border is really stupid. The military will not shoot and kill innocent human beings. The Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S. Border Patrol will do the work for them. Besides, building a damn wall will cost billions. People who are crossing the border often come from the airplanes. And building a wall will result in drug cartels building tunnels that go below the ground in the United States and at least five miles into the Mexico.
The Republicans are the ones who oversee the demise of Sears/Kmart and retail in general. Toys R Us, Bon Ton, Mattress Firm, HH Greg and other retail companies have fallen. The CEOS and shareholders pocket millions while those who worked get a few paychecks to pay their bills and feed their families. Tell a constituent that that Republican tax break gave your company's CEO a super yacht.
Yeah, showing up on television screaming Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer isn't going to work. They don't represent your constituents. You can't scare monger your constituents with fears of Pelosi hiding under the bed. Stop talking about Pelosi and worry about your district or state.
They forgot that under Republican control, the FCC repealed net neutrality repeal. Social media will not relinquish the fact that Republican allowed it to happen.
Republican lawmakers continuous decision to repeal the Affordable Care Act will only result in failure. No one supports private hospitals charging thousands of dollars to treat someone with pre-existing conditions. You going to tell a constituent that the company they work for will no longer provide insurance.
They won't if we don't get our asses out to vote this Midterm. The price is too great to allow Trump continue the course he's going.
The Republicans are going to win on the culture war. We can stop them if we get off our asses and vote this Midterm election.
Remember.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
