From what I have read the idea that he was gay has been discredited. As for his TRUE reason we will probably never be surely certain but no matter what it does not mean that this was an awful event that better screening could have prevented.
We know objectively that the gun restrictions we've listed result in significantly fewer mass shooting deaths, root cause or not.
Even if he wasn't closeted, he had a history of unstable, bipolar behaviour which is well-documented. He was especially violent against his ex-wife whom he's beaten numerous times and isolated from her family. He was also beaten by his father as a child, which may have contributed to his unstable mental state. Not only that, he spoke of wanting to kill people prior to the shooting, so it's not one of those "who would've thunk" cases - the man should've never been given a gun, he was unstable long before he pulled the trigger. We'll never know for sure what pushed him over the edge, but the pattern of unstable, violent behaviour was there and it was pretty clear.
The cost is too great.
That's a fair stance to take - I understand where you're coming from at least, I hope it's mutual.
The feeling's mutual. You take a hard-lined stance against taking away people's freedoms. I acknowledge that someone's freedoms are going to be hindered regardless of which choice we make, so I pick what I view as the lesser of two evils.
You know, EVERYONE I've talked to says they'd vote for Jill if she had a chance of winning and it genuinely pisses me off because she does and the only reason she doesn't is because everyone is brainwashed into saying she doesn't... $Hillary and Drumpf are literal pigs of their own parties. I have gone full #DemExit and you should leave the 2 party system as well.
A lot of her views are the same if not better than Bernie's. So vote for someone still in the run, y'know? Trust me, I'd vote for Bernie if he ran again.
Couldn't agree more but sadly most people almost always lump ideological systems more liberal them the democratic party as Socialist
Same here which is why i am voting Johnson.
If you care about the more progressive candidate becoming president, you should vote for Secretary Clinton. She, Sanders, and Stein are in alignment on policy 90-95% of the time. If you care more about making a statement rather than whether or not Donald Trump becomes president, then you should vote for Jill Stein.You know, EVERYONE I've talked to says they'd vote for Jill if she had a chance of winning and it genuinely pisses me off because she does and the only reason she doesn't is because everyone is brainwashed into saying she doesn't... $Hillary and Drumpf are literal pigs of their own parties.

I was a BIG Bernie Bro...I have all kinds of memorabilia and everything but...Bernie obviously gave up this election. So I switched because I'm not voting for someone who doesn't want to be President anymore. You should seriously invest some interest in Jill Stein, my dude.
But Jill tho. ;-;
I supported Bernie but I am not #BernieOrBust.
I mean I could give you a hell of an argument to vote for Stein, but the end decision is up to you. I just recommend doing some more heavy reading into your choices before you make it.

Yeah i am although i will probably vote Johnson, I might vote Stein if there is a major change or something that makes me re think my vote.I mean I could give you a hell of an argument to vote for Stein, but the end decision is up to you.

I have seen most of them on Twitter but i wonder why no one has done one like for example #MakeAmericaGreen
Wait, what? You're a libertarian and you supported Bernie of all people? That's... Shocking, to say the least.
Mainly since he was against the war in Iraq, supported auditing the Fed, was critical of Greenspan and Bernake, is against the TPP,guns, supported needed changes to the millitary, and is against private prisons.
B-but Greenspan is a libertarian superhero when it comes to economics, the only reason to criticize him is his latest claims that "he was wrong" - he's gotten soft over the years. I get that nobody's perfect, but Bernie is the polar opposite of a libertarian candidate.
Greenspan was an idiot who harmed the economy in so many ways and then got off the hook. Plus most Libertarians hold negative views of him and his hypocritical nature (claims to be a Mises follower but his actions go against every thing Mises believed in).
That's interesting. I've never heard of libertarians taking that position, must be a different circle I suppose.
Ron Paul, Mark Thorton, anti fiat/gold standard Libertarians, and many other Libertarians dislike him very much die to his policies. Check the articles on Mises,Cato, or Lew Rockwell to see what i mean
