The liberal are attacking a device that many use to protect themselves and ignoring the gun. The only time I can remember them focusing on motive as opposed to gun is when that dude shot up the softball practice.   

Yeah, you do throw two separate instances into one pot. Las Vegas is a shooting, triggering gun control questions. Has nothing to do with Islam. Has nothing to do with the NY terror attack. When you oppose the raising of the gun control question, you have to link that to the suited incident, not to radical Islam.

Hence my asking, what to do against the motivations of the Las Vegas shooter. And why I said that policy-wise I think raising the gun control question does make more sense then asking about the shooter's motivation. Were he a self-declared ISIS fighter, my stance might differ. He was not though.

Regarding radical Islam, I tend to agree with conservatives to some degree on that one. So we can't really argue about that specifically.
