'GOP Rep Blames Obama, 'Drag Queen Advocates,' Marijuana and Opens Borders for Shootings

[Newsweek] Republican politician from Ohio has sparked fury after she linked the weekend's shooting in Dayton in which nine people died with a list of what she deems to be society's ills, including gay marriage, marijuana and violent video games.

In a post on Facebook, Representative Candice Keller, who lives in Middletown, around 30 miles south of Dayton, said that after every mass shooting "the liberals start the blame game," and asked "why not place the blame where it belongs?"

Keller attributed the killings to various problems that she said stemmed from the "breakdown of the traditional American family (thank you, transgender, homosexual marriage, and drag queen advocates)."

She also listed video games, "fatherlessness" and "the acceptance of recreational marijuana" as other ills that contributed to the shootings.

#1 No more helpful than what the left is dishing. The blame falls squarely on the shoulders of each murderer. Digging for motives and influences after the fact changes nothing and doesn't do anything to prepare for the next murderous act.

#2 Idiot. She is exactly why Democrats win elections. Saying that people go on mass murder sprees because of gays, pot, and video games makes her sound like a regressive Christian stereotype that the left usually has to completely fabricate. Also, it pushes responsibility for the murderer's crimes onto "society", just like how the Loony Left always screams about how poverty and racism and the mere existence of guns made people go and start shooting up a mall.

#3 Let's not have some dem trolls and the NYT install hair triggers up our asses, guys. Here's what she really said.

The breakdown of the traditional American family (thank you, transgender, homosexual marriage, and drag queen advocates); fatherlessness, a subject no one discuses or believes is relevant; the ignoring of violent video games; the relaxing of laws against criminals (open borders); the acceptance of recreational marijuana; failed school policies (hello parents who defend misbehaving students); disrespect to law enforcement (thank you, Obama); hatred of our veterans (thank you, professional athletes who hate our flag and National Anthem); the Dem Congress, many members whom are open anti-Semitic; the culture, which totally ignores the importance of God and the church (until they elect a President); state officeholders, who have no interest whatsoever in learning about our Constitution and the Second Amendment; and snowflakes, who can’t accept a duly-elected President.

I don't think she was assigning immediate blame, she was only highlighting the systemic abuse of freedoms by Democrat administrators and the media, to the degree that they've created a society where lawlessness and delinquency is met with the least resistance, and family values, morality is relegated to 'regressive' stupidity. Almost everything
except the video games part, because they're lovely
she says is right.

These crimes involving young men who can send a copper jacketed slug into an innocent civ with utter sang froid, deciding their fate after meeting them only once through a scope - it's a symptom of the social environs created by a society that first questions it's conservative morality, then mocks it, and finally seeks to obliterate it. Isn't that exactly what the enemy is expecting white kids to do ? I think the woman is deeply conservative and even if she's not up on current mores of expression, she's one of us.

#4 Some people are just mad dog killers. I don't give a squat where they got that. Bring back public hangings. A few of them tearfully being pushed up the steps of the gallows will take most of the sang-froid right out of it.

#5 And, executions get the left's panties knotted up? Well, they own the ~~public schools~~ indoctrination machines. They can get busy re-purposing those to disincline young mush-heads from going down that road.
