Refute their bullshit then step away. Throw a Snopes, politifact, or some other fact checking link in there and just move on.

These guys are not very bright I know, I have some in my family. You got to have a thick skin and use your resources.

Remember, you aren't trying to convince the knuckle heads, you are just putting the facts out there for the others who come across their crap.

"Paddock was not a registered voter, as either a Democrat or a Republican, in Clark County or elsewhere in Nevada, where his permanent residence was located. He was also not a registered voter in Florida, despite some social media claims he was a registered Democrat there."

This woman, Dana Loesch, has blood on her hands.

She got kids and adults killed in Las Vegas by taking gun-lobby and GOP donor money to lie about the effects of guns.
She is partially responsible for those deaths.

when there is a tragedy. Plenty of anti liberal garbage conspiracy theories
This was the most bizarre comments..not political just crazy ...

On Activist Post somebody thinks Free Masons are behind this. I sometimes have night dreams which happen, often unrelated to me and when I wake up I have no clue what the dream means but later see something on TV or online which relates to the dream/explains it. (I often get annoyed, wondering why on Earth do I dream this crap, why not lottery numbers!!! lol) The night b/f I read the suggestion about the Masons on Activist Post, I saw fabrics in different shades of purple/red in a dream. I googled Free Masons, different degrees and the colors they wear and here is the result: 13 = purple, 15-17 crimson, 22-23 purple, 24-27 scarlet, 33 crimson. This is of course just a speculation, I have no idea why Masons would be behind the Vegas shooting? I know nothing about Masons, other than from TV documentaries.

I go there to lurk the pages of rabid republicans, just to see the latest horseshit that is being peddled.

Other then that, I do not use it anymore, and until Zuckerberg cleans that shit up, I otherwise stay away from that cesspool.
