So as of now they say 26 people have died in a church in Texas, ranging in age from 5 to 72, including a pregnant woman.   I'm sure all prominent Republicans are publicly offering their "thoughts and prayers"....which they did after Las Vegas, and we see today just how good their "thoughts and prayers" are at stopping future massacres by firearm.

But anyway, don't worry, this wasn't terrorism.  It was done by a white guy.  So we don't have to condemn his whole race, as we would if he were black.  We don't have to condemn his whole religion as we'd do if he were Muslim.  No, since he's a white guy, we'll just call him a 'lone wolf' who probably has some kind of mental issue.

But when the Republicans tell you that, remember this:


Oh, and don't forget, when a Muslim or a person of color slaughters people, we must talk about limited other immigrants from coming to our country, usually before the bodies are cold.  But after a white guy slaughters people, well, it's ALWAYS too soon to talk about sensible gun control.
