Another mass shooting. When we will we wake up and fix this?

Does anyone else feel uncomfortable living in a society where you can just be randomly shot?

i accept the possibility as a natural consequence for being alive just like i accept that when i cross the street i might be hit by a car

fact is life gets you killed, and making things illegal doesn't make things unavailable

if i wanted an illegal gun i could go get one, easy along with a **** ton of other illegal things because that's the way **** works

illegal things aren't hard to get you just need money for them

as long as guns exist you can get shot

as long as cars exist you can get into a car accident

there's all manner of ****** up things that can happen to someone, you can't eradicate that

again the root of these mass shootings is societal and due to a lot unrest, if there's an increase (which is likely i think personally) it still wouldn't be the fault of guns

how many different gun threads do there need to be for the same debate though?

I feel more than uncomfortable, BR. I feel pisssed off at the people who manipulated my once essentially safe, stable nation into one two short steps from a degenerate third world shiithole of tribal violence. Those people have names and addresses.

As is painfully obvious there are almost as many different ideas about who those people are as there are people asked. So, again, unless people can first recognize that others may have reasons for their opinions besides being stupid or evil, we get no closer to holding them to account or fixing the broken... also a subject fraught with division

That man is the least of our worries. You afford him far more credit than he deserves.

Who was Connor Betts really?
And, why is President Trump even mentioned on this thread?

Ohio gunman described himself as pro-Satan 'leftist' who supported Elizabeth Warren
Victor Morton
The Washington Times
Sunday, August 4, 2019

The Ohio gunman described himself on social media as a pro-Satan “leftist” who wanted Joe Biden’s generation to die off, hated President Trump and law enforcement, and hoped to vote for Sen. Elizabeth Warren for president........

....“I want socialism, and i’ll not wait for the idiots to finally come round to understanding,” he wrote in one tweet, according to Heavy.com.....
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/aug/4/connor-betts-ohio-gunman-was- elizabeth-warren-supp/

Now Blue Roamer, let's hear you moan and snivel about the 'blood' on Elizabeth Warren's hands and call for her to repent for her murders.

While you're at it Blue Roamer, you can moan and snivel some more about the 'blood' on Bernie The Commie's hands and his need to repent for his attempted murders because one of his supporters tried to gun down the Republican party baseball team. He almost got the job done but Steve Scalise survived.

You do want to be fair and consistent...don't you Blue Roamer?

But but but the Left is telling me this one's crime wasnt ideologically based.

He is still a nahtze white supremacist because he's white.

Jwhop, look at your girl calling for red flag laws. Gotta keep whitey in check! Can I at least get you to admit Ivanka is a treacherous snake?? Think with your head for a minute, big guy.

Yeah that's a common first world fantasy.

Fun to consider why.

I said nothing about moral ambiguity, shura. I said that to do something about it there has to be some agreement about who those people are and what to do. Perhaps you would like to tell us, and how you will deal with them? Do you see see agreement even in this page?

You sneer at people for being old, right before harking back to some mythical good ole days when things were safe and stable. Safe and stable is by definition an equilibrium point always subject to forces pulling and pushing it. And Safe and stable for whom?

Who disrupted this idyll, and how will you deal with them? And when was it?

18th c? Colonial rule, revolution
19th c? Another war with England, Trail of Tears, the Gold Rush and Civil War
20th c? Two world wars, suffragettes, Vietnam, technology explosion, Cold War, McCarthyism, Civil Rights turmoil..

Safe and stable is generally the gap between and experienced only by some...but I'm open to your definiton and solution!

Dayton was a violent misogynist, who hated women, and had a list of girls that he wanted to rape, as well as a hit list. That is an ideology. That **** that's spread between hateful men on the internet, or "in real life".

a lot of incels hate women because they can't get laid, but the guy was also a leftist who supported elizabeth warren and it was his far left views that were a major trigger for the shooting

that's why i said in the other thread half these guys just need to get laid and it'd cut down on some of the issues and isolation that lead to this **** though

More attempts to push buttons that aren't there, in order to avoid actually saying anything at all, eh, shura. Snore is right.

Right. Either Warren and Trump are both responsible or neither are reaponsible. Only the dishonest will accuse one but not the other.

I wont outright dismiss the getting laid theory - history and plain common sense support it. But is it perhaps more than this? Purpose, social cohesion, some measure of traditional spirituality/religious practice, family centered communities, etc ...

Nihilism and consumerism aren't working. Can we acknowledge this? Further, can we admit that both the "right" and the "left" have brought us here?

Not my girl, not my type.
So what's your fix for keeping guns out of mentally deranged hands? Preemptive executions? Involuntary commitment to mental institutions?
