Hmmm.

So which reasonable gun control laws would have prevented this assassination with a hunting rifle
The silence is deafening. So far. I guess Mott will come up with something given enuf time.
A single shot, bolt action, 5 capacity hunting rifle.
So apparently Mott considers "reasonable" gun control would be to outlaw all guns for anyone.

I have fired that rifle before, left a terrible bruise on my shoulder, and I was not so accurate.

It's a matter of training, padding and will.

But being executed for those beliefs should clearly not be one of them. Being as asshole is not a death penalty offense.

No, it's not. But when you make a living promoting division, hatred, distrust and fear, you shoujld expect to get blow back. It's possible to have political discussion w/o promoting violence and hate. Of course, that doesn't sell very well, does it?
 
Hmm, he really didn't seem to mind very much when other people died from gun violence.
Agreed. Being an advocate for peace, it's sad for me when people who advocate violence see violence brought upon them. Charlie advocated violence, hatred and bigotry. He was anti-American. Is it really a surprise Trump's fearmongering tactics finally worked?...even if not in his preferred direction? Sad. Truly. We can do better.

Getting criticized, protested, or even losing sponsors and customers are legitimate consequences of free speech. Getting murdered isn’t. Talking like it is comes really close to justifying political violence.

Agree. I haven't seen anyone justifying this young man's murder. I am merely pointing out that promoting voilence and hate can come back to bite you in the ass. Remember January 6, 2021? Or did you excuse that as a "bunch of rowdy tourists"?
