So, let me get this straight.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

1 person tragically murdered in Paris, France via a knife, perpetrator was eventually shot and killed by police--Donald Trump makes a public comment within hours.

4 people tragically murdered in Nashville, Tennessee, United States via an AR-15 rifle, further casualties are avoided only due to the bravery of an unarmed man who manages to disarm the perpetrator--Donald Trump has been silent for 22 days and counting.

Funny how perceptions suddenly change where the perpetrator happens to be a foreign and apparently Muslim extremist with a knife vs. a crazy American white guy with a gun and the involvement of a black man who manages to save lives without having using a gun.

1. This is America when it comes to mass shootings:

[Leith]

2. Yeah

It sounds like you got it right.

We heard more from the IQ45 administration about the fictional Bowling Green massacre than the hero of the Nashville Waffle House.

[unblock]

3. what else would you expect from the bigot-in-chief?

[Glorfindel]

4. Tennessee voted for tRump by 60.7 percent. He has them in his pocket.

He doesn't need to comment on tragic murders that take place in Tennessee. However, the opportunity to point out a knife murder by an apparent Muslim extremist was just too good to pass up. Extra points that it happened in France. Freedom Fries! Hurrah for U.S.A.! (but just barely)

[BSdetect]

5. We now all live in Dumbfuckistan

[2naSalit]

6. Well...

He did berate the hero for not having a gun... his being black makes him unworthy of praise in the minds of imbeciles.

[Orsino]

7. He has seven decades of real and imagined slights to avenge.

He doesn't have time/energy to address real-world issues.

[Takket]

8. He's only tweeting to his racist base

[Martin Eden]

9. It's quite understandable.

One fits the narrative, while the other does not.

[lunatica]

10. Hammer meet nail

Yup. You nailed it.

[bigbrother05]

11. Typical for the White Wingers that control the WH

Nothing is vile enough to satisfy their entitled white privilege.

Right Wing isn't enough for their White Only agenda.

[JustAnotherGen]

12. There you go again Tommy

You and this thing where you ALWAYS have to make sense!

[BobTheSubgenius]

13. White people don't commit terror.

Period. They have all kinds of good, home-spun crazy supporting instead of condemning them.

[defacto7]

14. K&R

[SunSeeker]

15. K & R

[Marcuse]

16. The killer was deprived of his right to an AR-15.

[sammythecat]

17. This guy can't be dead soon enough to suit me

I no longer really know what to say about him. He's old enough for breakdowns and disease to come into the picture. The sooner the better. And, after all this time, the tens of millions who STILL support this piece of shit repulse me even more than he himself and they're going to be here long, long, after he's gone. This divide is pretty much here to stay. America has come out of the closet with this guy. The ugliness is out in the open now, and proudly so. There's still more good than bad here, but damn, the bad actually seems to be winning. And rather easily too.

[Ilsa]

18. Earlier today I was thinking the same thing, or

alternatively, wishing for a massive stroke for him, leaving him speechless.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

25. No, nothing so . . .quick

Make it a long-drawn out, excruciatingly painful, crippling, disfiguring, bowel and kidney dysfunction, wasting away syndrome that robs the larynx of muscular capacity, but leaves the mind (and the hearing) intact to know exactly what is going on, just not being able to do anything about it.

[dalton99a]

27. Pain and suffering unlike the pleasures he's enjoyed all his life

and like what he's inflicting on others?

I approve

[sammythecat]

31. You're right

Prolonged pain and suffering would be much more satisfying. The disfigurement and inability to speak would be a custom touch just for him.

I suppose it's considered immature and inappropriate (so tired of that word) to talk like this, but anyone who hasn't had a similar daydream at one time or another is either unimaginative or isn't paying attention to just how horrible this man is.

[sammythecat]

29. Oh! Donald Trump, unable to speak. That's so perfect.

Clear a space where you display such things because this years Marquis de Sade trophy is all but yours. In this case it should be renamed the Marquis de Sade Humanitarian award.

[Ilsa]

30. Thank you. I'll accept that award if it

shuts him up. I suspect a pretty big load of DUers would give thanks if he was immobilized. And it is no worse than what he is trying to do to my disabled son.

BTW, he will continue his twitter shit show after he's tossed from office, unless he's in prison.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

19. Our public's craving to label and sensationalize everything....

is astounding every day. Almost every one of these events are crimes - nothing more, nothing less, and criminal minds usually exist in every segment of any society. In the past, when it was only newspapers and network news, most of these crimes would warrant only a footnote at best.

Now, they're splashed all over social media and the internet as a sick form of entertainment such that it's a miracle if suspects get a fair investigation and trial.

As some wise folks have said: One of our biggest problems world-wide today is the financialization of everything, including information.

Tommy, thanks for pointing out this very corrosive hypocrisy.

..........

[spanone]

20. well, when your 'president' is a racist.......

[pault420]

21. Sorry but you act like this is surprising.

Yet it's been happening as long as I can remember.

The media has a lot to do with this as well.

[rpannier]

22. The moment il douche finds out the killer is white

the cone of silence envelops his head

[Uncle Joe]

23. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread Tommy_Carcetti

[Amaryllis]

24. You have to be brown to qualify as a terrorist.

[orangecrush]

26. K&R!

[RussBLib]

28. Make America racist again

Trump is bringing out the worst.
