The Maine fucker was a firearms instructor and in the Army Reserve. Being both trained with firearms and in the military, he fits the stereotype of a "good guy with a gun". Somehow, despite this history, he decided to end the lives of dozens of innocent, unarmed people including children.
Will conservatives continue the flawed narrative of the "good guy with a gun"? Will they say all bowling alleys need armed guards?
"Nothing we can do about this, says only place where this regularly happens."
@soller Ugh, that's not what "good guy with a gun" means. 🤦♂️
@LouisIngenthron @soller So you are saying there's no such thing as a good guy with a gun?
@ariaflame I don't even know how you could have possibly gotten that from what I wrote. Please work on your reading comprehension.
@LouisIngenthron Well, given the love affair that the USA appears to have with its military the shooter was the very definition of it. If he wasn't then what is your definition of it?
@ariaflame No, someone who commits a mass shooting is, by definition, not a "good guy with a gun".
"Good guy with a gun" is someone who uses a gun to defend the defenseless. It has nothing to do with who you work for.
@LouisIngenthron Guns aren't used to defend. Guns are used to kill. They're not a shield, they are a weapon.
@ariaflame Tell that to the Ukrainians.
