What is to blame for the increase in mass shootings in recent years?

[White 6]

Maga politicians aren't the same as regular people who identify with Maga, though.

Might as well be. They support MAGA leaders as their leaders, which is tacit approval of many that flaunt it, shamelessly.

They are not worse, but they aren't better.

The country is really suffering, from a lack of moral family values leadership, both at the political leadership and the family level. If one shows one's kids the kind of people they support, kids are given a bad example of the knowledge and support for moral concepts of Right vs. Wrong. Churches are not helping, as they become political support outreach for the parties, with IRS approval and retention of their tax free status.

In leadership, character counts. The higher the leadership position, the more it counts. Between the parties and their didactic political supporters, the churches (in the new religion/political era), school boards, and historical top flight university leaders, the youth of America is being shown repeated horrible example after example, compounded by implicit and explicit permissiveness parents while lauding their superiority. Though on average, they are below levels of previous generations. . The regular rules this country was born and made great with are being destroyed. In this society of followers, leaders owe to the country to set a good example. The country should reject leaders of poor character and moral standard.

They advocate for unstructured families? How and who?
Is that like the noted Republican Elon Musk, with 14 children with 4 different women, only two of which, was he ever married to, been divorced since 2016 and still having babies with women? Is that what you mean by unstructured? Or Trump with 5 kids by 3 different wives, whom he was unfaithful to? Is that Republican structure or not? I admit, cheating on wives is pretty common in that party, with people like Trump, Newt Gingrich, Rudy Giuliani, John Ensign, Mark Sanford, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc. Are these the MAGA Family Values people?

You pick anomalies vs an entire agenda of single motherhood by choice.

Is Musk against single motherhood? Maybe your problem is poor people being single mothers, not democrats being single mothers.

Thanks to the political agenda of the left wing media it only seems like mass shootings are increasing. Actually they have decreased.

My county is mostly black, mostly fatherless and has a median income 30% higher than the national average.
Single motherhood by choice is a culture cultivated and perpetuated by the democrat party.

So, you are trying to blame on blacks? Or like I suggested, poor people or both. Well, Tennessee arrest a dumb as white guy for killing 4 people. He drove a nice Audi until he had to abandon, about 3/4 mile from my house, as the vehicle was know to police and broadcast to the public. I don't know his political affiliation, as this won't be his first felony conviction, though will probably be his first death sentence after trial. Some people just aren't worth a shit and get worse in the system, even in conservative red state Tennessee.

You continue to wag the dog.
The vast majority of blacks have depleted family structure. Blacks have increased crime and failing schools in spite of wealth.
Blacks are a contrived voting constituency of democrats. Feminists believe in single motherhood. Feminists are mostly democrat.
Unstructured families are a creation and agenda of democrats.

You still haven't substantiated how simply "having a father" reside in the same physical vicinity as a mother would make a difference, if the father is a bad role model (e.x. a gangbanger).

Who cares? There's no reason to automatically assume that "family structure" matters.

So what? If a single mother is better able to self-actualize than she would be if she was confined to an undesirable marriage, that's a good thing. Single motherhood is often the result of men not being there to care for the children, so the focus should be on the behavior of the men in question, not on "women" or "feminists".

No one "believes" in single-motherhood. It's simply a reality of life. And a society which values individual rights and freedoms is going to contain instances of it, so you'll just have to accept it.

What if a woman divorces her husband for frivolous reasons? Like something really, really stupid. Although I am sure you lefties will still try to defend that.
