Today's shooting in America thread

[Manchester_lalala]

Again, not much more to be said really - it's fucking loony tunes over there and has been for some time. As a country until they can come to an agreement that the current gun laws are beyond idiotic - nothing will change.

Think most people are decensitised to it now.

Not a chance that’s happening. I was in the states in December visiting relatives and they had a party at their home with some of their friends. Out of say 30 or so people, not one believed the laws should be changed as they should have the right to defend themselves if someone has broke into their home. Don’t get me wrong, I’d want to leather some **** for being in my house, but they don’t deserve a bullet which most of the times ends in death.

Such a lovely country, but Americans are mad.

This is the kind of 'logic' you have to deal with:

We still haven't heard the "Knives are just as dangerous as guns" argument but we know it's coming.

Totally believable yet also totally stupid. Do the realise how crazy they come across the the rest of the world?

When other countries are willing to accept American asylum seekers looking for refuge from mass shootings, please let me know.

Next week?

You think it will be that long?

Over 200 in the first 150 days. See you in 18 hours.

All polls suggest that the majority of Americans actually support stricter gun laws.

It's unfortunately a vocal minority who are holding it up.

Do they manufacture and sell guns by any chance?

Forget mass shootings and ‘they’ve all got mental health issues, just look at the ’rest’.
Since MAY 1st.
119 teenagers dead from gunshots
35 people ‘unintentionally’ shot dead
Excluding the Texas mass shooting, 35 children shot dead
Over 2000 injured by firearms.

50+ under 11’s shot dead ‘accidentally’ since January 1st.
Annually.
5500 under 17’s killed or injured of which over 1000 are 11 or under.

24000+ suicides by gun annually as well.

Even more bizarrely, the only figures going down year on year are guns being deployed for ‘defensive use’…

Its certainly a buggered up system.

I mean, this is belabo(u)ring the obvious, but I was on an elementary school trustee board for six years. We, of course, talked about school security. At our school it was (deep breath) LITERALLY FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE to secure the entire dozen acre perimeter. At our ONE school.

If no one has access to guns, they can’t access the site with guns.

Just a thought.

I unironically believe we're close to the Republicans proposing be just ban schools instead to combat gun violence. It's coming, just wait

 

[city2]

America is fucked, we have seen hundreds of school children murdered by nut cases it’s never gonna change.

No, I was 'Only, 24 hours from Vulva'.

They’ll end up recruiting you to write their manifestos if you’re not careful. ;-) Honestly can’t say I would be surprised to see something that moronic said ..
