Just as there was no "red wave" for the Republicans this year, there was no "red flag" for the shooter in Colorado Springs last night.
Which is ridiculous. How many Anderson Lee Aldriches can there be in the world? With the same birth date, no less. But it appears that the gunman who targeted the LGBTQ+ club was the same guy who was arrested for a bomb threat incident last year — the sort of thing that should immediately put him on a "No-guns-for you!" list.
Despite that, Aldrich walked into the club with a long rifle and other guns and killed five people. Amazingly, two club patrons who were not armed were able to subdue him and save who knows how many lives. So much for the "good guy with a gun" theory.
We cats are weary — of the Trumpy 2A crowd, of their hatred for gay people, and of police departments screwing up. It all makes us HISS.
