Why didn't WE think of this? Salon finds 'common theme' in deadly shootings (Hint: It's NOT the NRA)

this is ridiculous

This … is Salon:

It’s time to admit that toxic masculinity drives gun violence https://t.co/QspkmcfMwp pic.twitter.com/HLvJKgKcz0

Bet you can’t guess who’s responsible for that drivel …

Amanda Marcotte?

We’d post more of Marcotte’s piece, but frankly, we don’t want to further subject you to that kind of blistering stupidity (but feel free to read it at your own risk).

Suffice it to say, it’s full of all the B.S. you’ve come to expect from Marcotte and Salon.

I have legally carried a gun for 25 years and have never pulled it or intimidated anyone. Watch out for broad brush strokes.?

How is masculinity the toxic part in all of this?? Surely the attack itself & the individuals warped beliefs are the toxic things.

Most of those killed were men. Was their masculinity "toxic" as well, or were they not masculine enough because they were gay?

What the fuck is WRONG with y'all? Toxic Masculinity my ass.

you never miss an opportunity to turn tragedy into one of your stupid and pointless feminist crusades

"How can we take a national tragedy and warp it to blame a single gender?" "Toxic Masculinity"

You ppl are incredibly disgusting

Not an ounce.

Holy fuck what an awful publication.

An awful publication that’s overdue for some serious introspection:
