Well America is mainly white, stating the obvious isn't it? its a bit like me saying "brown suicide bomber blows themselves up"
As much as I dislike the lack of freedom in the UK im also glad lunatics cant get access to firearms easily.

Jeez, another one already.... Surely the resistance to gun control must be crumbling on a daily basis.
On the news this morning: 60 guns discovered in a car at Dover:
Border Force officers have uncovered what is believed to be the biggest haul of guns at a UK port.
Sixty guns were found in a Volkswagen Passat after it was stopped at the Port of Dover after arriving from Calais on Friday.
A Sig Sauer P226 blank firing handgun with a barrel converted to fire live ammunition was discovered in the car's rear-left quarter panel.
Another 59 firearms were then found deep inside the vehicle's bumper and both rear quarter panels.
The National Crime Agency (NCA) said the haul was believed to be the largest seizure of lethal purpose weapons at a port in the UK.
It's pretty well established that white supremacy is a bad thing? Do you want me to denounce paedophilia too? You probably think people who criticise Islam are secretly neo Nazis though and this guy is on "our" side

Not while Agent Orange is the POTUS - he would say that everyone, including schoolchildren should carry a weapon . . . just in case . . .
Well i mean the idea is that Muslims are supposed to apologise for islamists, that's been constantly pushed for years as an argument, so its only right.
And you think people who think Islam is bad have the same ideology as a white supremacist so we should apologise?

Maybe they can blame it on the Chinese?
Always best to identify "foreign" malevolence in order to deflect attention

This might have be aimed at arming a bunch of dissidents in Norn Iron rather than for organised crime. I do hope it is the latter, as if the former, other such shipments may have been missed, and 60 guns is a very large amount.
No i think people who think that any random muslim should have to apologise for the acts of a few extremists, need to themselves apologise or simply stop with their ****** argument. A case of reducing the hypocrisy.
You're trying to make out like this guy is on the side of people who criticise Islam, or maybe people who voted Trump because they want illegal immigration stopped when his ideology is that of white supremacy which is completely different
Remember the time a fella walked into a school and shot up a bunch of children?. They didnt change there mind when Obama was directly challenging what kinds of guns coudl go on sale straight after that, and it got torn to pieces. They are never changing there mind on guns. They are a child nation that have shown the world there is no such thing as gun control.

The only condition when they will do something is if there are daily mass shootings, each time with a politician dead.
If it’s not not that close to home, they will continue to do nothing.
If Sandy Hook and school kids didn’t move the needle, a dozen grown adults won’t. It has become so common it’s just another statistic and people aren’t swayed by statistics, statistics have no emotions, unless it’s when it’s someone they know personally.

The US is a weird broken country.
I feel as though large swathes of the US population, who are exposed to endless amounts of negative news and political soundbites, whilst simultaneously living in a culture which worships money above everything else is terribly damaging. Essentially, it has created a society so physically and mentally unhealthy, that these shootings are just one of many ways in which it 'comes out' so to speak.
These problems run so deeply through the fabric of American, society I think even gun control wouldn't solve all of the problems, although I think common sense legislation would go a long way and probably prevent some incidents.

In Texas that would be regarded as a SMALL gun collection, the fact it's regarded here as the largest seizure is actually very reassuring and is reflected in our gun crime statistics imho
