Why are the majority of mass shooters

[Walt]

MSG, are there any other groups that you do not believe are human, or thus are open for genocide? Japanese, Blacks, Jews, Southeast Asians, South Asians, Hungarians, etc.?

It's true though. Hell, find a Chinese source opining about their humanity. Go back as far as you like. If they don't think of themselves as human, why would I?

Over my life I have known hundreds of people with Chinese ancestry, who were born all over, and every last one expressed they were human. I have never heard even one deny their humanity. I have known half Chinese, and quarter Chinese people, so like any humans, they have no problem breeding with the rest of humanity. I even have extended family that are half Jewish/half Chinese.

The level of racism I am seeing on the internet truly disturbs me. Most of you are too lazy to actually implement genocide. Many are just saying this nonsense to be hurtful, and without belief. It saddens me that this is all you have to contribute.

We just completed the first quarter of 2021 and look at the number of shootings. I don't know when people are going to start taking this seriously.

"As of March 31, 126 mass shootings fit the Mass Shooting Tracker project criterion, leaving 148 people dead and 481 injured, for a total of 629 total victims, some including the shooter(s)."

Their website has the number bumped to 172 if you include April.

This does not happen in other countries. Something is going very wrong here.

If you're going to be a fuckwit, I'm going to ask for evidence of his political leanings. Do you have any? The Syrian guy expressed a lot of Trump hate, but many of you morons claimed he was a right winger too.

I certainly never heard anything about the Boulder shooter being a trump supporter. The terrorists always seem to either be Alt Right or Muslims, but they are almost never both. I assumed that the "Syrian guy" was a Muslim, and not a trump supporter.

Did these "morons" say that he might be a trump supporter before he turned out to be a Muslim? That would be a natural guess. trump supporters are more likely to be the terrorist than Muslims.

Where is the mystery? White men on the right are losing their sense of privilege and entitlement. They’re losing their sense of purpose because it was based on a lie, the lie that they are better than everyone else. Obviously a really hard pill to swallow when they discover they aren’t any better than anyone else, in fact, right wingers really NEED the privilege of whiteness to have any concept of self-worth. TRUTH is closing in on them and they are losing their minds.

These are lizard-men who have no soul, no spirituality, no humanity. No one is listening to them, not even their wives. The only thing that listens are their guns, bombs, and anything else they can murder innocent people with. No remorse. Most of them kill themselve because they lack the courage to face their own cowardly evil.

What they are doing to themselves and America is just plain sad.

Bearing arms is not a constitutionally guaranteed right in other nations.
In that respect, we have a freedom unique to us. Lots of guns, lots of food, baseball, and troublesome diversity are essentially what make America America.
Otherwise, we're just like dozens of other nations.

If we keep the republic, we have to keep that freedom and learn to accept what comes with it.

If we partition the republic, we can start from scratch and decide which freedoms are important.

At my age, I find myself giving less and less of a fuck either way.

Jim David Adkisson went on a shooting rampage at the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.

That is another example of what I was saying. Adkisson was 58 years old, when he decided to attack a youth performance at a church that had literally done nothing to him. He had been made so angry that there were liberals in the world, by FoxNews, that he decided to attack a church which has a lot of liberals.

And at age 58. That just seems too old to suddenly do something that stupid.

[Joe Capitalist]

Dude, they're all nuts. Why wasn't something done to help them before they murdered or hurt themselves? Because Democrats don't care about mental health care. They just want to assert authoritarian control over all Americans.

Geez, you fit in quite well with those looneys.

[Walt]

Example. Term "mass shooting" not used.

One of the victims, a 20-year-old woman, has died.

Maybe it is unfair, but we usually count the number of dead to get what is and is not a mass shooting. Here there was only one dead.

Not so much about my age, but I am losing hope. Maybe will spend more time living my own life, where there is a lot more hope.

But your racist fuckers are a much larger pile of murders asshole


You team whips these insane suffering fools into murderers instead of just suicides


Yeap

This kid was already reported by family as a possible suicide danger

I asked about evidence concerning his political leanings, but as usual you frothed at the mouth about nonsense like the ignorant whore that you are.

[evince]

And it doesnt matter


Because there is already a mountain of cases that were


And in his case they suspect he may have had something against these peoples religion

What are you losing hope about. Social change takes time. It can be assisted, but it's wise to not push too hard. Stalin obviously pushed so hard he ended up killing up to 35M+ of his own people.

The hope can be seen in statistics. Consider deaths, both total and a percentage of population, in wars around the globe over the past century.

Short version: More people, less deaths from war.

Dude


The NRA is in the freezer

It may even move from the freezer to the trash can


The evil influences are being flushed down the toilet


Take heart

Hello T. A. Gardner,



The very fact that you think one person created that chart is mistaken.

You might like this one better:

Media Bias Chart

It doesn't break things down as specifically, doesn't even rate accuracy, and shows no extremist sources at all. Just calls things "Left," "Leans left," "Center," "Leans Right," and "Right."

It still shows Fox opinion all the way to the right.

That one is quite a bit better.

Well, in the case of the Amazon shooter, I read something interesting in the paper today...

A year before (give or take) this guy was checked into a mental health facility for being suicidal and had bought a shotgun. He was known to have mental health issues around suicide. He bought the firearm he used this time just days before the incident, and obviously passed the background check, possibly lying on the form about his mental health history.

In his case, it appears that neither red flag laws nor a background check stopped him from buying the weapon.
