Do I get to make up your unstated political views?

Well you have, repeatedly, so I guess the answer is "yes".

He set the context that he is a minority.

He also set the context that he's a gun owner but surprise surprise, your own logic is dismissed the moment it comes from someone else's mouth.

Cause like bi_tux asked you, how did those victims not having guns convince the violent racist not to kill them?

They were killed by a legal gun owner who didn't give a shit if they had guns or not, he just opened fire on them.

You haven't clarified much of anything

Sure I have, you just ignore it because if you interpreted my comment as written and intended, you'd have to apologise.

You very much have a straw man that you wanted to rail against

Nope, just generic gun owners pushing generic gun owner talking points and making generic gun owner promises that get people killed.

Civility could still use a bit of polishing up.

How about the civility of explaining how you would change gun laws to prevent more of these mass shootings?

Children get mutilated beyond recognition and what does the pro-gun crowd do? Rush to social media to attack and dogpile anyone demanding change.

They've had 20 years of civility so unless you're going to start contributing and supporting actual solutions, you can stick your civility sideways up your piss hole.

The civility of explaining how I would change gun laws? What on earth do you think civility means? You almost sounds like an AI speaking in patterns that sound like conversations but with no understanding of the actual words. I already said if you started behaving we could talk about other stuff

What political view of yours did I already make up?

I didn't dismiss that bi_tux is a gun owner. Again what nonsense is this? Him being a minority gun owner is the foundation of this entire thread.

That the Jacksonville victims were gunned down by a legal gun owner that didn't care if his victims were armed or not backs up bi_tux not you. Minorities, armed or not, are the targets of lethal violence. Them not being armed didn't save them. The fear and hate that causes the violence of shooting random people belonging to minority groups at stores or on door steps is there regardless of if minorities are armed or not.

You haven't clarified anything. You've jumped to about ten different topics. State clearly and concisely how bi_tux is the cause of black children getting shot in the face.

Sorry, you'll have to flaunt your dogshit reading comprehension elsewhere, there's been another mass shooting.

Yeah, I thought you had nothing.
