          Amazing how non-suicidal mass shooters always get taken alive, yet unarmed black men end up dead so often. I mean, dude just killed a bunch of people, yet is not seen as a threat to police.

          Trump puts on tough guy show at his rallies, but really he's a weak,, insecure, Man Baby. Any criticism is fake news. Why doesn't he skip his rally and go to Pittsburgh and show them some support? He won't do that cuz he needs his base to constantly stroke his ego, and they will.

          Many South American immigrants utter the same thing. It’s somehow always a relief whenever it was revealed that a mass shooter is white, male

          Too bad they weren’t armed so they could fight back. Embarrassing for the US! Disgusting that normal people can’t defend themselves when their lives are on the line. God bless the victims and their families.

          People around the world hold these types of ceremonies without incident and even most hardened criminals wouldn’t do this. Don’t get it twisted.

          And there are guns everywhere, all the more reason to believe it is a contrived act that you should be able to defend yourself against!
