Today's shooting in America thread

[kaz7]

Well this ought to calm things down (couldn't find the BLM thread - seems to have been deleted):



It always seems to be a traffic stop.

I’m starting to think that your average American gun owner believes that Revere is riding round still. Shouting his warning that The British are coming.

What an utterly fucked up normality. How on earth does this just happen and happen.

More guns would stop it.

Been talking to my mate in Oz about gun ownership. He has lived in Adelaide for about 8 years moving from Dukinfield. He always liked pellet guns and had them since early teenage years for target shooting. I knew nothing of Australian gun laws but assumed they would be strict...it doesn't appear so, he has two safes for his handguns and his riffles, I asked what riffles he had today they include "3 leaver actions like you see in westerns one of them is really powerful, like kill a elephant powerful. 4 bolt actions all different caliber and a straight pull tactical shotgun holds 6 shells"

I asked him about the gun control "They are very strict Gaz to be fair I do loads of comps and enjoy shooting. Not into killing animals just competion shoots . You need to be in a club also the shooter association and need to do 6 shoots per year . Pistol only rifles you don’t need to ."

I mean 6 shoots a year, that will certainly deter the nutters.

Given the above, why dont we hear about Oz shootings,

I'm starting to think that American Cops have got below average intelligence.
