Trump - Less than 3 weeks ago:

REPORTER: Does it concern you that many people saw that tweet as racist + that white nationalist groups are finding common cause with you on that point?

TRUMP: "It doesn't concern me because many people agree with me."
Trump: "I will do whatever is necessary to stop an invasion of our country. That's what it is."

Saturday my account was locked by Twitter for only the 2nd time in my nearly 10yrs on here. I was locked for a tweet to Marco Rubio responding to his attack on Ilhan Omar. In my tweet I posted an article on domestic terrorism bolstering her claims about white male perpetrators.
My tweet, posted on July 25, had gone viral, with several thousand likes and RTs. Why was I locked for this tweet more than a week later?
Because it was mass reported by anti-Omar, pro-nationalist accounts. Twitter deemed my tweet "hateful conduct." But it was an MSM news story.
I took a screenshot of the report to me, but I fear putting it up because it might trigger another lock. But the term I used --the one deemed "hateful conduct"-- is trending today: #WhiteSupremacistTerrorism. So is #WhiteNationalistTerrorism.

If you were POTUS what would you do to immediately stop gun violence in America?

By Executive Order I'd set up a bi-partisan Federal Agency tasked w/ Gun Safety & Reform
Every employee would be vetted & banned from interactions w/ gun lobbyists
The agency would be tasked with...
A bipartisan agency would draft gun reform legislation to go to Congress/Senate or to be passed by Executive Order.

They'd also set up/maintain Federal data bases tracking gun sales & monitoring gun owners for Mental health &/or hate speech issues (working with law enforcement)
Law enforcement can help input how the laws need to be changed to ensure they can address the National Emergency of #WhiteSupremacistTerrorism

Constitutional Lawyers can help w/ the delicate balance between gun reform & still protecting free speech & the 2nd Amendment

#ElPasoSHOOTING: 19 DEAD, 40 WOUNDED

I can’t help thinking abt families shopping at Walmart for school supplies being slaughtered like animals. El Paso like Gilroy has a large Latino population. Trump’s dehumanization & conflation of immigrants & criminals put targets on them.
ā€œIt’s about taking down immigrants. There’s a body count associated with these websites (8chan, 4chan) nowā€ā€”Ben Collins (@oneunderscore__) on #ElPasoShooting. 21yo shooter posted a white supremacist screed/manifesto citing neo-Nazi killers Brevik, New Zealand mosque massacre…
