Re: strategy?
He thought they were Arabs. I got the info from Dr. A. Amazing how you feel the need to find SOMETHING, ANYTHING to find fault with in anything I say. Same way something, anything is always being invented or embellished against Trump.

His thinking they were Arabs makes them Arabs as far as the main point goes. That's all. Sheesh.

Re: On the Indian question
There is now an assertion that the shooting of the Indians was not hate despite what the person said because he was drunk.
Since it is illegal to be drunk while in possession of a firearm in Kansas, but since he is being charged with murder and it is unlikely a misdemeanour will be included in the charges - will it be considered an aggravating factor in sentencing?
Likewise, one might think it petty - but since the right is so keen on the rule of law and all - if the gentleman was so drunk that his declaration 'Get outta my country' cannot be held to be an accurate representation as to his state of mind - does that mean the bartender should be held criminally liable under 41-715?

No Faith, his thinking they were Arabs makes him a fracking racist myopic ignorant idiot xenophobe gun happy dreg of American excrement that thinks that people of color are targets of convenience for shooting regardless of who they are, or what they do, and that perceived problems are solved by randomly shooting people.

What's the main point?
I think he unjustifiedly shot two people and Trump doesn't care because he's not a Muslim.

Re: targets

Yes, it does. Finally I get to agree with you about something. That hasn't happened very often over the last couple of weeks.

Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also in prison. Thoreau: Civil Disobedience (1846)
History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people. Martin Luther King
I never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend. Thomas Jefferson
Seems to me if its clear that certain things that require ancient dates couldn't possibly be true, we are on our way to throwing out all those ancient dates on the basis of the actual evidence. -- Faith
Some of us are worried about just how much damage he will do in his last couple of weeks as president, to make it easier for the NY Times and Washington post to try to destroy Trump's presidency. -- marc9000

I'm very glad to hear it, that is. if you understood properly that "cops and white people" are to be substituted for "people of color."

There's no evidence I know of that shows He thought they were Arabs, only that they we not like him. I was reacting you you calling the incident Arab related.
And the point is that there is no justification to shoot anyone because they are not like you, even when drunk.
It really is that simple Faith.
He is no different than the people rioting at Berkley or the idiot fascist that was going to speak at Berkley.
We need to grow up and realize that not being like me is not a bad thing regardless of who "me" is.

Honestly, I really don't know the answers and think the answers may actually be important.

Re: targets
Please provide us with the context behind this comment. Are you saying BLM proponents are going into bars and randomly shooting people, or are you just being a racist ass?

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Re: targets
The context was already given if you'd been paying attention. RAZD's post defined it, with of course the clarification I posted to NN. All you had to do, as usual, was follow the argument.

Re: targets
So you think that the police killing unarmed Black people is a good thing. So good that protesting against it should be seen as being as bad as a racist murder. Doesn't that sound just a bit racist to you ?
