Should easily hit over 300 mass shootings in America by August 1st

[Doc Dutch]

Any country that chucks around murder weapons like bloody confetti, surely, is committing suicide anyway? You started all this right-to-bear-arms bullshit so that you could murder any enslaved people who tried to break free. Isn't it time to stop even the police killing people just because they are 'black' and might still fight back against your racist bullying? Are you really so inherently criminal that you need to shoot one another? Most people manage by respecting the law.

Thank you for your Eurotrash input. IMO, clean your own house first before attempting to clean others.

Isn't this the same arguement the chineseamerican lady used before the san diego school board on the crt issue ??? Those dims ignored her ... now you are using the exact arguement ... shouldn't we ignore you ???

I have no idea what you are referencing. Do you have a link?

I fail to see how economics is related to "crt" in my post.

How does my post equate to "You are now training our children to loathe our country and our history"?

“Child Among 3 Killed In Shooting Inside Supermarket In Florida”

Is as American as apple pie and baseball, so common Americans have become desensitized, a two year old getting killed in a grocery store is hardly news, certainly not noteworthy on Fox, their too busy covering cancel culture

At 271 today, 300 is should be easy to top in another month and half, could see 600+ by the New Year, lot of “prayers and condolences” from the right

And the right’s solution, more guns are needed, guess we should start arming two year olds

When you start a thread with an absurd statement, you set the tone for the thread.

But allow me to use a little poster jiu-jitsu here. I will assert my choice of a seeming absurdity to counter your own.

However, mine will make a hell of a lot more sense.

It comes from the brilliantly practical and sensible mind of Dennis Prager:

Why So Many Mass Shootings?


"Now, America, being the most ethnically and racially diverse country in the world, could still have low homicide rates if a) Americans were Americanized (but the Left has hyphenated — Balkanized, if you will – Americans) and b) most black males grew up with fathers."

Americans shoot one another.
It's the primary identifying characteristic of the nation.

The right thinks that it's perfectly OK.

We on the left may know that it's not,
but we mustn't delude ourselves into thinking it can be changed.

The opportunity to cap one another's asses is constitutionally guaranteed.
That's how we roll here in America.

Leave it to you to help perpetuate Leftist lies.

Is there anyone here with a Leftist point of view interested in a serious discussion of what contributes to having a lower homicide rate in America?

$20 says their #1 go-to plan is banning guns to stop homicides and suicides.

That's the EXCUSE they will use.

The real reason is to give themselves better chances for survival if they can influence the government to disarm legal, law abiding gun owners, (who have a lower rate of criminal firearm violence than even cops) when the enemies of America reach the violence stage, we patriots might not have as much of an advantage over the bad guys.

Possibly. I'm more inclined to believe they are simply Nanny State bleeding hearts who think everyone is too fucking stupid to be trusted and only they know what is best for everyone.

On certain things, there is a great deal of overlap of Leftist's positions and Liberal's positions.

" ... I'm more inclined to believe they are simply Nanny State bleeding hearts ..."

That sounds like a Liberal point of view.

And most Liberals choose not to recognize the different motivations of their Leftist bed fellows on much of anything on which they have superficial agreements.

They'd rather close their eyes, let the Leftists do whatever they want and hope things turn out to be acceptable to them.

What, in your opinion, is the difference between a "Leftist" and a "Liberal"? Does this apply to "Rightists" and "Conservatives"?

On a sliding L-R scale I mainly see the moderate middle and the extremes on the ends with degrees in between.

The Political Compass 3-axis scale is better due to more information. example: https://www.politicalcompass.org/crowdchart

Nah, too easy traveling to a gun State and picking up anything one needs

Lobby your blue shithole politicians to become a "gun state". You won't have to drive as far.
