Has the twitshit commented about the Waffle House Mass Shooting??

[boston bean]

He is one pitiful sack of shit.

[Dave Starsky]

1. Since the hero was an unarmed black dude...

I imagine he will remain silent on this, or the NRA will activate his shock collar.

[dalton99a]

2. No white person was hurt in the incident

[MoonRiver]

3. The killer is tied to white supremacists and should never have had access to guns,

due to mental illness and a history violence, so no, the Idiot will not condemn him. ASSHOLE

[KewlKat]

4. The shooter was white. There is no need to ask the question.

[EffieBlack]

5. The shooter was a white male and the man who ran toward him unarmed is black. You can do the math

Funny thing - this guy did what Trump CLAIMED he would do - remember when he said he would run INTO the school, even if he didn't have a gun.

Yeah, well.

[boston bean]

16. I added it all up. We both came to the same answer.

[malaise]

17. Everyone he killed was black

Everyone

[EffieBlack]

19. Which means DEFINITELY nothing to see here.

[malaise]

21. On;y mental illness although he was sane enough

to wear a coat where he carried the extra magazines.
This was a hate crime no matter how they spin it.

[uponit7771]

25. +1

[Funtatlaguy]

6. Killing people is ok for some

It’s ok if only poc are killed
It’s ok if the killer is white, or right wing.

[VOX]

7. An unarmed African American male overpowered and disarmed an insane white male with his bare hands.

The Old South’s greatest nightmare, it’s at the center of their fear of slave uprisings: a black male disarming a white male! Without a weapon yet!

And even today, the FACTS of this incident simply do not translate in the twisted fiction that is TrumpWorld.

[EffieBlack]

20. Boom!

[spanone]

8. of course not, the dead and wounded are people of color...he has no interest.

and the Hero is an African American....his base would be appalled.

[Johnny2X2X]

9. Terrorism

This Waffle House was targeted for the color of its customers. This man was a Trump inspired White Supremacist, this was terrorism.

[Lucky Luciano]

12. Seems likely to be terrorism with the tied to the sovereign citizens.

It also seems highly likely that the target was selected as a place frequented by POC.

Not sure about why he felt the need to shoot up the place while naked. A complete nutcase independent of his violence as well.

[Johnny2X2X]

13. If he wasn't white

If he wasn't white you'd have heard nothing of his history of mental illness. People who go on mass shootings are generally crazy. this guy was no different. He was a terrorist none the less, a Right Wing terrorist. Trump is not only inspiring this type of terrorism, he's enabling it, he's directed the FBI to leave Right Wing terror groups alone.

This was terrorism, his mental health doesn't change that.

[Blue_Adept]

10. Did Obama comment after each shooting?

I'm asking honestly; I had several years where I wasn't as plugged into the goings on of things. I just don't want to create a false narrative here, which we've seen happen in other areas (such as no sitting president has gone to a former first lady's funeral, etc).

[boston bean]

15. I am absolutely positive Obama would have commented on it and given praise and thanks to the young

man who saved lives.

Hell, trumpass on the day of the mass shooting praised law enforcmenent in Palm Beach for keeping him safe. And that was after the shooting.

He is a racist asswipe.

Link to tweet

[Blue_Adept]

18. Yeah, but this is also a guy that has barely tweeted about any national natural disaster

Nary a word when california burned or torandoes moving through the midwest, and so forth. It's an imperial presidency of disdain towards all but his only focus is on those that he feels slights him.

[Ms. Toad]

24. We all know that he is an insensitive jerk

The additional problem here is his choice of when to tweet. When he consistently ignores harm to victims of color with white offenders, and consistently responds immediately to victims who are white and calls non-white attackers terrorists, he is being not only a jerk, but a racist jerk

[LanternWaste]

22. Obama addressed the nation eighteen times in reponse to eighteen mass shootings

Obama addressed the nation eighteen times in reponse to eighteen mass shootings (ABC News).

During his tenure, 162 mass murders (in which four or more people selected indiscriminately, not including the perpetrator, are shot- as per FBI).

[Blue_Adept]

23. Thanks for the data

I wasn't sure of the best way to try and collate that information to get a feel for comparison (especially while just using my phone).

Very much appreciate your effort.

[MichMary]

26. Obama was criticized

for giving a "shout out" at a conference he was addressing right after the Ft. Hood shooting. He apparently didn't say anything about the shooting til the end of his speech. So, even though he did comment, some people found things to criticize him for.

[Wounded Bear]

11. Don't you remember?

Trump ended all this carnage on inauguration day. Must be fake news.

(probably didn't need that, but just in case somebody doesn't get it )

[aikoaiko]

14. "There are very fine people on both sides of this event." TRUMP

No, not really, but it wouldn't surprise me if he did tweet that.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

27. Nope. There are too many things about it that don't fit his narrative.

1. The killer was a white guy.
2. He used his father's apparently legally-purchased AR-15.
3. He was into that "sovereign citizen" right-wing craziness.
4. The victims were black.
5. The guy who stopped him was black.
6. The guy who stopped him was unarmed.

Now, if the killer had been black or Muslim, used a stolen gun, was affiliated with BLM or an Islamic group, shot white people, and had been stopped by a white guy with a gun, he'd have worn out his Twitter fingers...

[Tipperary]

28. Sarah Sanders has, and she quoted shitler.

[tulipsandroses]

29. No Tweet, but some mumble jumble from Sarah

during her daily press briefing. She had brief praise for James Shaw Jr. Then they are monitoring the situation.
