And people like you and the MSM who use situations like this as a club to attack Trump and conservatives is a completely despicable political move. Even here you are dismissing the Dayton shooter as "mentally ill" but not the El Paso shooter. Why? Because the Dayton shooter was liberal and the El Paso shooter wasn't. Just grow up JimL.
The Texas shooter is just the opposite, there is no known mental illness at this point, and his motive he made clear. That you can't distinguish the difference between the two is simply because you don't want to distinguish between them.

That would explain the lower violent crime rates of relatively white countries like the Scandinavian countries. The only exception I see to that is black countries like the Congo.Last edited by JimL; 08-06-2019, 09:31 AM.

Originally posted by JimL View PostThe mental condition of the Dayton shooter has already been made public, he suffered for a long time with hallucinations, hearing voices and admitted to his friend about his fear of hurting himself or others some day.

It has nothing to do with their being black and everything to do with the poverty and warlords. The fact that you immediately retreated to racist language is much more highly reflective of your own racism than any of mine.

Originally posted by Bill the Cat View PostNo, stupid. YOU wrote the racist part. I merely cited one homogenous country that isn't violent and one that was an exception. YOU immediately assumed race was the reason. Ergo, YOU are the racist.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by JimL View PostCalling me a bigot doesn't refute the argument I made, Sparko. But, I guess if that's all you got!
But you might want to actually read up on the El Paso shooter. He was a loner, kept to himself, was bullied in school, spent all his time on the computer, and snapped. That doesn't sound like a mentally normal person to me. I would give you a link or two, but since you never bother to give us links, you are on your own Sir Google!

Originally posted by JimL View PostBeing a loner doesn't qualify as a mental illness. Not eveyone out there shooting up people qualify as mentally ill, or are motivated by mental illness. The shooter in Dayton seems to have been suffering from a mental illness, hallucinations, seeing things and hearing voices, there is no actual evidence that the Texas shooter suffered anything of the like..
Regardless, my initial point was that if the shooter is racist or conservative, then they blame Trump for it. If they are liberal, they make it all about the poor shooter who was mentally ill. The Dayton shooter said he was a socialist, and like Elizabeth Warren, but nobody is blaming Warren for his actions. On the other hand the El Paso shooter specifically said he had his views long before Trump and yet the MSM is blaming Trump.
