Just stick with, "our thoughts and prayers are with the victim's loved ones and all those effected." I have no idea what the thought process on the statement was. Sure what he said is true, but saying it in relation to this event was stupid.
I disagree. It was the perfect time to be said. It had to be said eventually, might as well do it as soon as possible. No one wants to hear that men in the US are having a problem, white men in particular. But they are. They are irrationally angry. They don't understand that our country is not a zero sum game. Hell they don't even know what a zero sum game is.

They have been told since the repeal of the fairness doctrine that they are losing this country. 24/7 conservative radio is not healthy. With megaphones Guys like Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones, and really starting with Bill Cooper, this entire country lost it's shared humanity. I was raised to believe we are all in this together. My Christian beliefs demand that I not only help those that need it, but I hug those people everyone is trashing. That includes trans people. That includes the gayest guy you have ever seen. That includes rednecks. That includes black people and Muslims. None of us should be tearing anyone down. Jesus would not have done that. So the next time you get mad at Bud Light for retweeting a promotional video of a trans person drinking a bud light, remember, your reaction says more about you than Bud Light.

Remember the trans person wasn't waving their dick around, just drinking a beer. Are you mad you thought they were attractive before finding out?

The bigger issue for Allstate should be that their coverage sucks, because that is what really should matter to people that is paying them.
