i wasn't too far wrong then...

[Rockrose]

Shameful that there is not the same dislike of the American shooter! I wonder why that is?

[Zacs-Master]

Because he was an American, possibly.

[emmie]

no that was just as appalling, but was he taken out by the police in US or did he kill himself.

[fender62]

somali's and knives mmm, weapon of choice for the ones in london.

[Zacs-Master]

All of them?

[retrocop]

The shameful issue is that the lack of US Government gun control allowed a mentally disturbed Marine Vet who had served his country a firearm. Knowing he had/is sufering from PTSD and had been notified of his condition. It was a vet who killed a retired US sniper who ran a rehab programme for PTSD veterans.
The shooter had a mental problem he could not help. The government were at fault.
What excuse are we going to dream up for a Somali refugee who sought asylum and then tries to murder peaceful people going about their business?
Perhaps the Aussies should put a block on black sub saharan refugees. That would kick up a stink wouldn't it?

[Rockrose]

Ahhh at last an excuse for the shooter!

[emmie]

wonder how many more will come out of the woodwork, ^^

[emmie]

no excuses, but according to the news he was suffering from PTSD, having been there myself i know just how destructive it can be.

[Rockrose]

Of course emmie but if you excuse my cynicism I think it makes a difference that the shooter is white!

[retrocop]

Ahhh at last an excuse for the shooter!//

Ah. Someone who lighty dismisses PTSD
What excuse do you have for a Somali refugee. Please tell?

[emmie]

i am glad both are dead, one by his own hand possibly the other by the police.

[Rockrose]

No excuse offered at all.
But I find it very interesting you leaping to the Defense of the American shooter wonder if you would have been as quick to do it if he had been an coloured ex soldier say one who was brought up a Muslim?

[retrocop]

It is no excuse. It is a cause. If you bother to read the link I left you will see the white vet who shot Chris Kyle got life with no parole.
No prejudice there. He had PTSD also

[Rockrose]

Of course retro

[retrocop]

Certainly.I would defend a black muslim soldier who suffered PTSD which affected him by lawfully engaging in a war whilst under the instructions of his Government.

[Rockrose]

Of course you would!
