    obligatory comment turning a tragedy into a talking point that justifies stripping citizens of the right to self defense

      You are literally making the comment that you are apparently trying to lampoon. In much the same way that you apparently NEED guns to defend yourself from… guns?

      You are an ouroboros of ironic stupidity.

        Who said anything about needing a gun?

        Rights aren’t need based.

        You do not need free speech, freedom or religion, right to vote, etc, etc. You are guaranteed to not have them taken from you or have your access to them limited… for any reason. That’s how rights work.

          There are actually tons of laws that limit or revoke those rights. Nevermind the fact that the constitution was LITERALLY made to be changed and amended when appropriate.

          Actually, the best way to stop mass shootings is to not have guns every fucking where. More guns = more potential tools for mass murder.

      Antisemitism is not just a tragedy. I assumed this was about antisemitism, because it reminded me of the Halle attack.

        Literally in the article:

        US Rep. Steve Cohen, who represents the Memphis area, said his office has learned the shooter is Jewish and a former student of the school.
