Video games, ******* video games! If the shooter was black, brown or muslim would he be blaming video games??
The reason Trump, the GOP and white nationalists fear brown people so much is because Texas won't be a red state in a few years time and without the likes of Texas wining the presidential election becomes very difficult. Rather than going after brown people why don't they try winning them over to the GOP instead? Could it be that their racist white base won't tolerate it??

To be fair criticising places like 8chan is perfectly legit.
Indeed. This forum needs to have a hard look at itself in terms of the behaviour and things that are allowed to be posted as well, but the incels and right wingers on 8 chan are far more extreme than the sad ones here.

FBI agents are reluctant to pursue white nationalist extremists because they don't want to target Trump's base, former counterterrorism official says

There are other countries that have both video games and a relative high civilian ownership of firearms that don't have these mass shootings...

Agree,
If you want to point the finger at what leads to these types of events one can argue yes trump has said careless things someone in his position really should not.
But the real place this stuff really grows is message boards that serve as an echo chamber of hatred. Always starts off there and people become more and more radical. The same thing happens with Islam. People are pulled into these environments and become radicalised.
You still have people that dont understand the difference between semi automatic and automatic. But better mental health assessment, more sensible control of guns, a media that doesnt whip people into a frenzy of extremism (both left and right), more civility in discourse... all of these are likely part of a solution.
Sums it up quite nicely I think:

The internet socialmedia certainly needs some registration/accountability and that in itself would help close down the crappy echo chambers of all types of ldiot groups. It's coming guys time to accept it.
Lol @ games
Lol @ more guns than citizens on your country.

Rarely do we agree, but cesspits on the internet are indeed a large factor.
Brilliant, from the guy who expressed sympathy for a domestic terror attacker and who throws around insults at people who don't share his opinion...
Yes and we are all sure your defintion of Nazi's won't be found to be rather nebulous and strangely seem to align with 'people I disagree with'.....
You are a clown, a clown who supports political violence carried out by activists just as long as you agree with them
....
A clown who said....
About Hugo Chavez, an authoritarian socialist who left his country in a parlous state when he died with the whole facade of his socialist miracle being shown for the lie it was when high oil prices settled back down.
The current death rate in Venezuela through crime, political violence, starvation and general infant mortality makes the USA look like a paradise in comparison.
If you want to reduce gun violence in the USA you are probably best seeking ways to reduce / restrict gun ownership by increments.
Not by pouring fuel on the fire by saying we need more antifa groups to go out and commit violent acts.
Why nice try? Why does the other poster need align with what Trump has done?
I'd suspect he'd probably wants to have stricter gun control than was implemented by Obama even, most UK residents probably have views on gun control that go further than most democrats.
Yes by restricting at least new gun ownership and not only to thoose (diagnosed) as mentally ill.
Says the guy with so much time on his hands he both knows who I am and has time to go back through my post history!
Who's the Nazi's, anyone you disagree with per chance? Pro tip: that is literally Fascism.
Ah the old former government official brought in by what ever left wing media outlet to add legitimacy to what they've already told their viewers to think, brilliant. Then the click bait link get's spread around by willing NPCs, keeping the media businesses going for yet another year.
It's almost as if these media outlets need to make Trump be a bad guy so they have stories for morons to click on.

He retired from the FBI in 2011.....
I'm sure he kept a few contacts but is he really likely be a reliable source about the inner workings of the FBI nearly 8 years after he left? Or might he just be drumming up business for his next round of TV appearances?
He's being paid to write an opinion, pay me £10,000 and I'll tell you Corbyn should be our next PM

Yeah, Trump Jr was sharing articles about 'former [insert tech company here] employees' talking about how their former employer was trying to stop Trump winning the next election. They wheel them out for clicks and to keep the CTs going.
