His father was a therapist so he should have been well equipped to deal with his son’s problems.

That isn’t MSN. That’s some clown posting a blog on MSN.

Please stick to credible sources.

Newsmax and Raw Story, the sources for that blog, are not it.

Has anyone thought about making AR-15s illegal?

Oh, right. Republicans want to keep them and have more people own them.

There are 400 million guns in America. You're a fool if you think banning them will work.

Ban them, buy the back and confiscate the ones who refuse. It wouldn’t be hard.

+1000. It’s been very important to Republicans that all 18 year-olds have access to guns.

Here's what we know about Thomas Matthew Crooks, the suspected Trump rally shooter

BETHEL PARK, Pennsylvania, July 14 (Reuters) - The FBI identified 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania as the suspect in Saturday's attempted assassination of former U.S. President Donald Trump at a campaign rally. The suspect was shot and killed by the Secret Service seconds after he allegedly fired shots toward a stage where Trump and was speaking in Butler, Pennsylvania. The FBI said it was working to determine a motive for the attack, in which one rally attendee died and two other spectators were critically injured. Trump was shot in the ear.

How do the leftist mainstream media not understand the facts of the case?

You are beyond naive. Recovering 400 million guns is virtually impossible without the use of unprecedented, dictator-level force. And even then, you'd be successful if you recovered 10%.

If banning guns worked, I'd be the first to hand over my guns. And I would advise any other country with less of a gun problem to severely curtail gun sales. But I don't want to pretend a solution will work for us when it won't.

Why would a person donate to Act Blue the day Biden was sworn into office and then register as a republican months later?

Then, attempt to assassinate Trump and kill and injure other people at Trump’s rally?

No it hasn't. No other country has had a gun problem at the scale we have.

This will encourage more gun ownership.

Associated Press:

Trump injured but ‘fine’ after attempted assassination at rally, shooter and one attendee are dead

BUTLER, Pa. (AP) — Former President Donald Trump was the target of an apparent assassination attempt Saturday at a Pennsylvania rally, days before he was to accept the Republican nomination for a third time. A barrage of gunfire set off panic, and a bloodied Trump, who said he was shot in the ear, was surrounded by Secret Service and hurried to his SUV as he pumped his fist in a show of defiance.

Trump’s campaign said the presumptive GOP nominee was doing “fine” after the shooting, which he said pierced the upper part of his right ear.

The FBI early Sunday identified the shooter as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. The agency said the investigation remains active and ongoing.

One attendee was killed and two spectators were critically injured, authorities said. All were identified as men.
