Another mass shooting.....

[Brian37]

Getting murdered is at least a little bit of oppression.

It's not oppression of Christians unless the reason they were murdered is that they were Christians. The reason they were murdered seems to be that they gathered in the same place where the shooter's mother-in-law could often be found, who, ironically, wasn't there that morning.

I agree,.No this was not Christian persecution, they,Christians want to claim that, they'd be right to claim Egyptian Coptic Christians and Kurdish Christians in Iraq are persecuted. In America I'd say regardless of motive, the blame for all our mass shootings is actually coming from the religious right in their fervor to link the 2nd Amendment to no rules at all. Unwitting at best, but still based on the fear marketing the makers use and the NRA sells. 

Va Tech shooter was mentally ill.
Roof was motivated by white religious nationalism.
Pulse shooter was Muslim motivated.
Columbine killers were thrill killers.

This guy was trying to get even with his x. The church was not the target.

But in all the cases listed above, all of them had easy access to firearms.
