As a Tennessean, it is odd to see how the murderous rampage
That has so shaken our state was just a blip on the national consciousness that is DU. Maybe it's just because TN is considered a backwater state and there aren't that many liberals outside of Nashville but we have become numbed to these events. It's the new normal.
Gee,I wonder what could be? ::)

1. It's not the state that matters
All I'll say is it's not surprising this story isn't "moving the needle" here.
Ooooh,it`s a secret!!

9. Yep
Red state, military victims, Radical Islamist perpetrator. Any and all of which make this incident problematic for some DUers. Note I say some, not all. Change the facts and you'd get a completely different reaction on this board.

16. The identity of the victims and the identity and motivation of the killer are the deciding factors
Some killers and victims fit a politically useful stereotype and some do not.

28. What you said.
This particular heinous killing does not give some DUers the correct talking points for endless threads and spin-off threads.

Evil bunch of mongrels.

Shouldn't the DUmmies take a cue when they're afraid to say what the reason is?! It's like Nazi Germany!

10. Ban all Guns!!
Another mass shooting, appears to be a weekly occurrence anymore.
Same issue as always, too many guns too easily acquired and used for their designed purpose.
Ban all Guns!!
Yes, from the people who don't want any one profiled because you can't judge ALL people by the actions of a few ... we should ban ALL guns because of the actions of a few. And in most of these terrorist cases, shouldn't have been here in the first damn place.

44. Man, some DUers were practically *salivating* over this TN shooting,
when the original description was all we had to go by.
WTF? What is going on at DU? Are some of them waking up?

Interesting comparison in what we took note of.

Great minds and all that! :cheersmate:
Honestly,we know these pieces of shit better then they even know themselves.

Simply put, the DUmmies won't discuss it because it involves a Muslim shooter. Does not fit their narrative.
-
The DUmmies and the shooter have the same political goals....destroy America.....so no talky.

11. I think we're starting to numb out.
and that is horrid
lol, no you're not, numb nuts. Had this been another Charleston-style shooting, you idiots would have a minimum of 10 threads going, blaming whitey, blaming guns, blaming inanimate objects, etc. No, this just doesn't pique your interest because it involves a Muzzie. Only bashing Muzzies piques your interest. ...and the military? You could give a rat's ass about the military.
