Well good news it wasn't a hate crime. Just another guy from the SBC who got confused with the stupidity of religion and decided he needed to gun down women because sex is bad. If you're keeping track those lives can be added to the countless others the SBC has had a hand in ending in this country. Way more than any Muslim.

Reading Lawrence's comments below makes me want to gag. Tired of trying to be civil. This isn't about guns, it's about evil. pure unadulterated evil. I don't need bible quotes to tell me right from wrong. I don't need my butt in church on Sunday morning to tell the difference between love and hate.

The damned genie is out of the bottle and it may never be put back in. There's always been evil, but it's never been okayed by the person holding the highest office in the land. There is no bigger megaphone, no larger bully pulpit than the one trump had as the president of the United States of America.

We made the horrible mistake of electing a man with no filters. A man with no morality as his core beliefs. A man who lusts after the spotlight and who will do and say whatever it takes to stay in front of it. He is simply a cretin of a human being and we are paying the price for giving him that platform.

I have no interest in debating or arguing whether what he says is or was inflammatory. Whether it was rhetoric, lies or hyperbole. I've seen enough of his shouting and spouting at his rallies to know he is simply incapable of taking ownership of the misery he has inflicted upon this country.

Worse yet, his supporting cast of characters is too busy whining about Mr. Potato Head and Dr. Seuss. At some point everyone has to be held accountable and in the immortal words from the movie The Gladiator: "in this world, or the next."

May God help us all.

White Supremacist, really. Do you mean a white racist or just a white person. Your overall thought on this piece was admirable but once again, you are letting your racist views show through.
