No civilian should be allowed to own or possess a semi-automatic firearm. It’s too dangerous. pic.twitter.com/PKZ5llvnLD

The 20 year old gunman in Pennsylvania wasn’t old enough to rent a car, but he was old enough to buy a semiautomatic rifle.

Weird to see people condemn political violence who are ambivalent to a genocide

If you think political violence is bad, wait until you hear how many innocents have been shot/bombed in Palestine. https://t.co/gDtTgj8WGr

Just posting this because I agree with Republicans who NOW condemn political violence.

US “democracy” is nothing but political violence!
— Ben Norton (@BenjaminNorton) July 14, 2024
All US presidents for decades (both Republicans & Democrats) have waged nonstop war, in Korea, Vietnam, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, etc.
The US has killed MILLIONS. But I guess foreign lives don’t matter. https://t.co/Js1h55Oh4G pic.twitter.com/ULpVP6PfsN

As democrats and republicans alike condemn political violence, remember that essentially every elected republican is voting for this man, despite his endorsement of political violence (most notably on January 6, but also many other times).

The US government is sponsoring a colonial genocide in broad daylight.

Both Democrats and Republicans, Biden and Trump, are staunchly supporting Israel as it massacres Palestinian children with US bombs.
If that is not “political violence”, nothing is.https://t.co/mwifcY5ouL
