First, the Second Amendment doesn't apply to New Zealand, because (as Mr. Wright seems to be unaware) New Zealand is another country.
Second,"#2A gun-rights folks" have spoke out against New Zealand's restrictive gun laws, which didn't stop this crime and deprive people of the ability to defend themselves. See, e.g.:

If that random Twitter jagoff is is going to troll, he should at least do a little research so as to not sound so ignorant.

Fun factoid, the FAA is without a Director because the senate wouldn't confirm Trump's personal pilot to the job, and he hasn't bothered to nominate anyone else.

He's been doing lots of crimes. Similar to Manafort.

Pittsburgh is 25% AA, and the accused is White so the jury seems to be pretty well balanced in terms of both actual demographics of the city and the 'jury of your peers' concept.https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2019/03 ... ittsburgh/This isn't going to go over well. 75% white jury.Jurors — five white men, four white women, two black women, and one black man as well as three alternates — will travel to Pittsburgh by bus on Monday.

They weren't picked from PIttsburgh. With all the attention this got I'd think most people already have it set in stone whether he's guilty or not. FWIW the other kid in the car plead guilty to the drive by moments before.Jurors were selected from Dauphin County in the Harrisburg because of all the pre-trial publicity in Allegheny County.

I didn't say they were. I said the jury that is doing the fact finding in the case stemming from actions that occurred in Pittsburgh with a Pittsburgh resident on trial in fact is very much representative of the actual demographics of Pittsburgh.
The racial makeup of East Pittsburgh is only 20% AA so if you wanted to Devil's Advocate here you would say that the AA makeup of the jury is over-represented. I wouldn't make the argument but I think your (intended or otherwise) inference that the jury is somehow imbalanced in favor of a white defendant is baseless.

Evidently, the US State Department issued a travel warning to the Netherlands for a possible terror attack back in September:
The U.S. State Department issued a travel advisory last September to warn of a possible terrorist attack in the Netherlands, urging people who visit the country to "exercise increased caution."
"Terrorists continue plotting possible attacks in the Netherlands," the U.S. agency said in September. "Terrorists may attack with little or no warning, targeting tourist locations, transportation hubs" and other public spaces.

If the defendant is found not guilty, the jury being 75% white will be something that is brought up. I believe it is fair to say most, if not all, of the AA community sees the defendant as guilty. Doing my best to put myself in their shoes I would see the disparity and questions it, regardless of what the population % of his peers is.I didn't say they were.
