    Okay here is s better one. 270 plus this year so far and 346 total for last year.

    These are mass shooting incidents. Not sure if that differentiates from mass shootings but either way. This is said. One a day?

    Every fricken day on average there is a mass shooting incident for the last couple years now?

    No wonder the rest of the world thinks what they do of us....

    And I am not saying all those types of his supporters are going to act out, merely that they share the same ideologies.

    It is worth looking into what qualifies as a mass shooting. Even NPR has questioned the prerequisites that constitute one. Most of these are drive bys and gang related shootings in public areas. Gun+more than one person= mass shooting, according to these metrics. Only a tiny percent are actual mass shootings like the one were talking about. There aren't people waltzing into crowded builings and wasting people every single day. But yes, any number is too many.

    If that is the case then who drove extremists out of the woodwork? Not antifa. Antifa extremists who use violence on innocents?

    I agree. Im on my phone and cant dive deep but as i was typong i was questioning an average of everyday. I dont hear about them. Political discussions dont bring them up.it seems A thread is created for almost every mass shooting of this type and there are only a few for this year.

    Wait though. Lol. Cant have it both ways.

    So Trump is to blame for any and all violence either side commits?

    How? The leftist media gives these people more attention than anyone ever has. You cant blame trump for anyones shitty behavior but his own.

    No. I am saying he gave both sides a platform. They existed before him. The divisiveness he created just gave both sides ammo.

    But he is free to speak his opinion.

    It doesnt mean we need to use violence when we agree or disagree.

    I get ya though. Pouring Gas on a fire doesnt help.

    It is quite a culture shock being in a foreign country living the high life and coming back to our madness.

    If these people were as rare as TrumpTramps like to claim, why would he invest so much time in pandering to them. Trump himself obviously believes them to be a significant voting block.
