Militarism at the heart of a violent culture
"AS THE president continued smearing millions of immigrants as violent gang members to justify racist deportations and a border wall, it happened again. A young white man entered a school, not far from where I graduated, and unloaded a legally purchased weapon of war, killing 17 innocent people in three minutes...."
"WE NOW need to expand the demand beyond gun control, and connect the issue of mass murder at home to state-sanctioned mass murder abroad.
"At age 19, shooter Nikolas Cruz has not lived a year of his life when the U.S. was not actively bombing or occupying other countries, and exporting war through lucrative weapons contracts.
"A teen who can't yet legally buy beer or rent a car was able to purchase a weapon made for tactical combat--but then again, the same legislators who allow the AR-15 to be sold more easily than a Bud Light have supported every U.S. war and every bloated military budget presented to them.
"The U.S.-manufactured ammunition that kills abroad kills just the same in Parkland, Florida.
"The crisis we have before us is not about rap music or video games, as has been charged in previous mass shootings.
"It is a capitalist crisis."
A crisis groomed since 1945 during which the Exceptional US has exterminated millions of innocent human beings from Korea to Kandahar.
Only someone as dense as Trump would be surprised when these chickens come home to roost.

That is some weak ass shit. I'm against the interventionism that we have embraced, but to try to gin up a connection between that and a whack a doodle mass shooter, is

White Supremacism in the U.S. Military, Explained
"The United States military is one of the most ethnically diverse and integrated institutions in the nation, and has long promoted racial equality.
"Yet in a string of cases in recent years, Americans bent on racist extremism have been current or former members of the armed forces.
"The arrest of a Coast Guard lieutenant whom federal prosecutors accused last week of stockpiling weapons and planning to start a race war raised the question of whether the military, for all its efforts to fight discrimination, has a continuing problem with white supremacists in the ranks."
Millions of men serving, and you present a "string" of cases as evidence of some massive problem that supposedly means something about America as a whole?
To make the case you are trying to make,
you would need to
1. Demonstrate a real problem with white supremacy in the US military. At least, thousands of cases of white refusing to take orders from or work with blacks, AT LEAST. Better would be a culture of interracial white on black violence with the white attackers consistently getting a pass. YOu cannot do this, because it is not even close to true.
2. THEN you would have to show that systemic white supremacy there, was sticking with massive numbers of former military, and they were doing something. Such as reinvigorating the KKK so that instead of being an organization with 5k members and completely toothless, it was suddenly in the hundreds of thousands, and regularly committing violence,perhaps with white cops refusing to stop them.
YOu cannot do that, because NONE of the elements you would need to make your case, actually exist in the real world.
Put away the crack, before the crack puts you away.
Millions of dead civilians from Korea, to Laos, to Cambodia to Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq and how many had white skins? Only racists celebrate those responsible for those murders. Maybe that explains your slave-like support for white supremacy?Millions of men serving, and you present a "string" of cases as evidence of some massive problem that supposedly means something about America as a whole?

Militarism at the heart of a violent culture
"THE NEARLY 1-to-1 ratio of guns to people in this country is the result of a constant state of war, bloated military budgets and the frequent use of violence beyond the Pentagon in the history of this society.
"All this is at the root of a culture where militarism, gender violence, racism and mass incarceration all thrive."
That is just some word salad, with no effort at even TRYING to support it's claim.
YOu saw that, right?

Militarism at the heart of a violent culture
"Years of gearing up the military-industrial complex has further enriched the ultra-wealthy barons of war and death who profit from increased weapons sales.
"The most recent boom in domestic gun buying came during the Obama years, after a racialized 'they're coming for my guns' scare, which, of course, never happened.
"U.S. corporations like Raytheon, Boeing and Lockheed Martin are the largest global exporters of weapons.
"In 2015, U.S. companies accounted for about half of worldwide weapons sales that totaled more than $80 billion overall."

"The case of Nikolas Cruz also raises another issue: the U.S. military's heavy recruitment presence in schools across the country, particularly through the JROTC program that targets low-income children as early as 6th grade.
"This includes teaching students how to shoot guns in preparation for future deployment to wars yet to be launched. In fact, Cruz was not only a member of ROTC, but he was part of his school rifle team, which received a $10,000 grant from the National Rifle Association before Cruz was expelled."

Sooooo, ROTC has been around for decades. Why is it only now that it has developed magical powers?
There's no magic required to conclude that global capitalism requires global war; many young adults in this country were born into a "war on terror" and now that terror is coming home to roost. ROTC is one small cog in that eternal death-for-profit machine.Sooooo, ROTC has been around for decades. Why is it only now that it has developed magical powers?

El Paso shooter was a white supremacist.And of note:
- El Paso shooter is an enviro-nazi separatist.
- Dayton shooter is a satan worshipping Warren supporter.
And both were likely inspired by KLANTIFA.
