How many feel the mass murder and gun crime situation in America is "LIHOP" terrorism? [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by MerryBlooms (a host of the General Discussion forum).

For the really rich people like 1% of the 1% of the 1%, the Koch brothers and their ilk, all these mass murders and crime in general are "let it happen" terrorism aimed at keeping the masses under their thumb. Maybe one reason ALEC promotes these weak gun regulations and the gun culture is to keep us in fear, fear of each other to distract us from turning on the 1% of the 1% of the 1%, our real enemies.
