Today's shooting in America thread

[tolmie's hairdoo]

If I were a teacher in the States, I would be urging national strike action until they fuck guns off.

Why should any educator or child fear for their life going to school each day.

Another president giving the usual sound bites with absolute certainty there is nothing he can do about it.

And yet, we must try.

And that Mutha Fukka Trump - wouldn't even deign to give a sound bite.

Or, as LIza Minelli snag in "Cabaret", Maybe This Time We'll Be Lucky.

In fairness to Biden, he has been anti gun for decades. What else is he supposed to do.

I'm going back to the u.s. tomorrow, my wife and my life for 30 years are there, but in my few days away i've seen a sunrise and a sunset over the Lake District, eaten fish & chips on the quiet Lancashire coast, seen a rather good football match and never for a moment thought that any of the folk i've spoken to carried a gun. Going back to where people have been shot recently going to the store, school, church, walking down the street or riding a subway train and know it will continue until a few Republicans in the Senate have the courage to join their fellow Americans in wanting to limit the supply of weapons instead of being in thrall to the N.R. fuckin' A.

In a country where walking across the street incorrectly gets you prosecuted but carrying an assault rifle is ok. What a fukin joke of a nation.

I was reading about this in the Daily United Mail, all the Yank fool comments were saying outlawing guns won't work.

I made a comment for the first time ever. I said 'it did in Australia"

Since Port Arthur in the 90s massacre and guns were banned, zero mass shootings. Not 1.

They blame it all on mental health, not the guns. Well everywhere has mental health issues but not everywhere has easy access to guns. Take away the guns and hey presto! Mass shootings diminish

Mental health is the go to unless you happen to have a different religion or colour. They are classed as terrorists.

So sad and it’s unimaginable what those kids went through and what the parents are now going through.

Sadly though it means nothing other than another tragedy. Nothing will be done, we will see all the usual sound bites but in a few days it will be just another news story and they will be onto the next mass shooting.

In a few days they will all be at the NRA rally in Houston getting their pockets lined.

Mate I’m gonna guess 30% or maybe more of teachers support conservative candidates. That group could strike unless they’re ALLOWED to carry guns to school.

In Texas it's illegal for teachers to strike.

Bullshit! Enough Teachers with guns can strike whenever they want to. More guns is the answer!

In case this post isn't perceived as ironic... more guns are never the answer.

Might as well make it mandatory that they wear bullet proof vests because they are going to be first in line to get shot if they are known to be carrying a weapon.

More tragedy.

15 Dead in Texas School Shooting.

The world has gone nuts! Get ready for more Federal gun regulations. RIP to ALL victims of this tragic cowardly act.…… Thankfully the POS shoot is dead.

That forum is redneck central. You should see it when a black person is shot dead by police.

5 mins on that forum and my heads gone. Possibly the saddest thing I've read today. That country is way beyond fucked!

 

[BlueMoonAcrossThePond]

More tragedy.

WTF!?!?

This is just another false flag story promulgated by the liberal socialist media in America. Paid actors claiming to have lost loved ones - disgraceful.

The pedophile lizard snowflakes on the Left are corrupting America.

It's time for all of us to take up guns and fight for freedom. Let's make America great again!!!

This fucking bullshit message brought to you by a centrist Democrat who despairs about the state of American politics - and who frankly can't see any way to reach those on the Right.

So I engage in irony - and you know what's most ironic? My opening message isn't ironic at all - tune into Fox news or some such outlet and you'll see opinions very close to the bullshit I began with.

I know. There's some twisted fuckers on there. It's sad to think those attitudes spouted on there are shared by a section of American society.

Amusing graphic - but upon reflection way off base.

Pretty much it's:

Mass shooting - outcry - Thoughts and Prayers - attempt at reform - massive NRA-sponsored outcry about "snowflake" socialist liberals attempting to end all gun ownership - failed bills at local state and national levels attempting to reform gun ownership and sales in the name of safety - and back to Mass shooting
