    Good riddance. Actions have repercussions, and sometimes words do too.

    CBS Legal Exec Fired For Vegas Shooting Hot Take

    A top legal executive at CBS was fired Monday for comments she made on a Facebook post that was first reported by The Daily Caller News Foundation.

    “If they wouldn’t do anything when children were murdered I have no hope that Repugs will ever do the right thing,” Geftman-Gold wrote on Facebook, ostensibly referring to Sandy Hook. “I’m actually not even sympathetic bc country music fans often are Republican gun toters.”

    The reaction to her comments from CBS was swift.

    “This individual, who was with us for approximately one year, violated the standards of our company and is no longer an employee of CBS. Her views as expressed on social media are deeply unacceptable to all of us at CBS. Our hearts go out to the victims in Las Vegas and their families,” CBS said in a statement to TheDCNF.

    CBS has a history of hostility towards Republicans. Shortly after the attack on the GOP congressional baseball team gravely injuring Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise in June, former CBS anchor Scott Pelley questioned whether the shooting was “foreseeable, predictable and to some degree, self-inflicted.”

    The original post that included Getman-Gold’s comments has since been deleted.

    What I don't get is the dumb f-ing people that say crap like this are the same ones that support BLM, AntiFa and various other "change it to our way with violence" groups". If this shooter had been black, his actions would be justified byt idiocracy and we know it.

    Of course, it would have been "because he was marginalized" for so long.

    Completely understandable. His psyche is hurt because black criminals get shot. It made him rob the grocery store on the corner of his own street with a firearm.

    He can probably sue the store owner for not providing him adequate protection from the police.

    The left does not comprehend nor accept personal responsibility for their actions. They think if they think it is right, they are justified in saying whatever stupid shit crosses their minds and their words should be considered gospel.

    Their responses to the stupidity being pointed out is complete denial of any wrongdoing and/or being wrong period, countered by accusations of racism, Naziism, Fascism, sexism and whatever else can be thrown at them.

    It's not going to. I'm like Black Diamond in regards to not getting it with people who do illogical, stupid things. If you look at the lefties generally regularly made fun of, they respond like this kook ... emotional outbursts that make no sense, are illogical, fly in the face of fact. Yet they make them and in most cases I don't think they're lying which is a famous misnomer hurled around a lot. I think it's worse. They actually believe the sh*t.

    I'd say it's more environmental than anything else. Just add the scalawags that can recognize and play on a fear and you have a belief system.

    I know, pard... the SHIT just never ceases oozing out of the left like rotten diarrhea. They truly are sickening sons a bitches. Anything immoral, perverted, anti American, anti patriotic, anti American heritage... the list just goes on and on, these cock suckers are for it.

    Only sort of. For now. They ARE outbreeding us. We're old, remember? This is our youth talking all this loser shit. They're next in line to be the decision makers.

    This country is a goner. Just a matter of when, and will we live to see it. It's already NOTHING that it was when I was young. Sucks for the young not guying off on the bullshit. They'll have to live with it.

    But no one wants to do anything to stop it NOW. Just talk it to death.
