    • Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York applauded New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern for taking legislative action after her country faced its worst shooting in history.
    • Ardern announced on Thursday a sweeping ban on "military style semi-automatic" firearms — including assault rifles — following the Christchurch shooting.
    • "Christchurch happened, and within days New Zealand acted to get weapons of war out of the consumer market," Ocasio-Cortez said on Twitter. "This is what leadership looks like."

    Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York applauded New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern for taking legislative action after her country faced its worst shooting in history.
    Ardern announced a sweeping ban on "military style semi-automatic" firearms — including assault rifles — six days after 50 people were killed and over 40 were wounded during a shooting at two mosques in Christchurch last week.
    "The time for the mass and easy availability of these weapons must end," she said. "And today they will."

    Well, Christchurch will end up like Londonstan in another ten years or so, with higher murder rates than many US cities.

    But you'll get arrested for saying that, or "mis-gendering" some trans-queeer.

    UK cops got plenty of time for that.

    This is what real action to stop gun violence looks like. We must follow New Zealand's lead, take on the NRA and ban the sale and distribution of assault weapons in the United States. https://t.co/lSAisDG9Ur

    I'm sure it was meant as humor but such comments can be misread and alienate some of MAGA's supporters & effect morale of DADT folks involved in GWOT.

    Respected bipartisan neoconservative and MAGA supporter Lieberman's famous quote also come sto mind that made headlines during Iraqi freedom war. Lieberman noted regrdaing troops, "It doesn't matter if you're gay or straight as long as you can shoot straight'.

    Not to mention Christchurch crime will increase as did London's.

    As for the shooter i highly believe that the shooter was paid to do all this and this was a false flag. The fact that in his crazy manifestos talks about a possible civil war in Europe tells me that he had ties in with some very powerful people or groups.

    That trump quote was taken away out of context, he said that in reference to people with mental illness owning guns.
    A savage barbaric tribal society where thugs parade the streets and illegally assault and murder innocent civilians, yeah that is the alternative to having police. Oh wait, that is the police

    We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home.

    With sovereign citizens and anarchists being considered on par with ISIS, do you really feel comfortable with the government deciding who does and who does not have a mental illness?

    No but it's still fake news to misrepresent what people say whether you agree with them or not.

    In any context his comment was reprehensible.

    They can try what ever they like here. At this point in the game I don't give a $#@!. If you want my firearms then 'you' are gonna have to come and take them. And I may die, but one or two, or a dozen of 'you' aren't going home to dinner either.
