    Y'all see where this ladder climbing political wannabe has exaggerated the hell out of that Friday shooting for his own benefit.
    I mean after the first day they basically swept the facts under the rug so they could paint the guy as a American terrorist, conservative hate-spewing Christian whacko that was on a murder spree. truth is it was 2:30 in the morning and he shot the shit out of some buildings. If he'd really been serious he could have just walked in and had at it. Or better yet plan a time of day when there are actual people around. No I think this clown was doing something really stupid but he had no intentions of actually doing anyone in - suicide by cop is my opinion.
    But as usual the libs make good use of any event to further their cause. In this case Acevedo's political career.

    Well said.

    I think it's about time Chief Avocado (or however the hell his name is spelled) was vetted. He obviously holds extremist views and is not serving the public trust.

    Could be a neighbor told you that she was overheard bragging about getting a black rifle at a gun show with no paper work and saying that the police are too stupid to find where she hid it.

    Way out here
    Let me attempt to clarify my position and possibly make a distinction that may bring some of us back on the same page. I inferred (I also realize Acevedo did not say these words, so if you want to slice the salami that thin, so be it) from the words "acting with a lot of hatred toward any particular group," and the context in which those words were used, that he was describing persons with a propensity toward violence.

    I'm not saying we should all go turn in our neighbor who hates Mexicans and owns a safe full of guns.

    Truth is, everytime a disturbed individual pulls one of these stunts, we lose ground.
    Aurora, Sandy Hook, Ft. Hood, etc....

    Art's request is reasonable, on the surface.
    I'm backing 35R.

    Parts of it sound reasonable. If it wasn't coming out of the mouth of an anti-2A socialist id be more receptive to listening to it.

    To a socialist, not condoning something, not supporting something is "hatred".

    Id like to hear the chief expand and explain his comments more. Maybe I could get on board...but of course he wont do that. He said what he was supposed to say.

    I think the messenger is most of the problem here.
    The message would be better from the NRA?

    Several issues.

    Who it is coming from.
    What his language used means.

    We have laws already that aren't enforced strictly enough.

    Wayne LaPiere said as much following Sandy Hook.
    I ain't defending Acevedo, I'm supporting the message.

    I understand. I have issues with the guy saying it, his specific words (how those words are used) but not with the overall message. Yes, if your racist neighbor is screaming about killing Krasnovians and loading guns into his truck...by all means say something.

    Hating Krasnovians (dont we all) plus owning guns is not a crime.

    to the left and tyrants it is a crime.

    Merely disagreeing with homosexuality is hate and a hate crime in their eyes. 100% compliance and submission is what they seek.

    The he list goes on and on.

    just remember that lee greenwood thinks we live in a free country

    Mao this whole country has been brainwashed to think the only people who are extreme and violent are "patriots" and those who advocate the constitution.... When in fact it's the ferguson monkeys are the govt itself that is prone to violence.

    We already have backround checks. A system whereby those with violent tendencies and mental problems can be reported. Most agencies don't bother. Too much time and cost. Too much liability. I personally have met medical profesionals that did not want to say anything because they were sure the person could be " cured". And some can be.
    Anyone here think someone like Acevedo should have the ability to decide what could be hated? How much anger at what was too much? Who or what we can be angry at? What crimes get to anger us enough to get violent?
    Rape, assualt, robbery?
    Don't think so. My ex girl friend used to get scared if I raised my voice. Almost called the cops when I yelled a one of the kids for lieing. Said any anger was a sign of mental instability and violent tendencies.
    Me, who hasn't layed a hand on women EVER. Been investigated several times for child abuse thanks to ex wife, and told they wish more parents cared that much. Me, who will generally try to avoid a fight.
    Oh yeah, she was from L.A. Too.
    Tell me about absurdity in thinking. It ain't mine thats absurd, it's theirs. And it's worse than you could possibly imagine!
