(64,765 posts)Just because somebody speculates about the sociopolitical impact of an event doesn't mean they support the event.
You and some other DUers are putting words in posters' mouths that they haven't said. There's a lot of air between "wanting to gun down people" and "being devastated by this tragic loss." A lot of room for a wide range of nuanced opinions.

(14,630 posts)Not gun violence. Heck, that as common as dirt. But the brutal exposure of the "death for profit" medical insurance industry, PLUS the absolute emptying of the prisons for the criminally insane to be nominated for cabinet positions deserves (nonviolent) hell to be raised (you see it here) and rancor so loud that it can't be covered up by "whatabout?" garbage.
We're just short of some kind of yellow jacket movement. Let's say: driving with your lights on, now that all new cars do that, and Magats would have to disable theirs.
Just don't let down for a minute. They can't "normalize" after 4 years of leadership by Joe and Kamala.

First of all, we dont know the motive. Secondly, theyve already taken steps to getting better security for themselves, probably that is the main thing that is going to happen.
