Today's mass shootings

The classic Finnish way of doing that goes something like this:

  1. Binge drink
  2. Get angry
  3. Get axe or a firearm
  4. Throw your family in to the snow or kill 'em out right
  5. suicide or prison

No details, but feels racist. Video seems to show at least some victims being older folks. I hate that’s where my mind goes first.

Funny you should say that, and now listen to this guy (LA Sheriff),

(Screenshot reading about Monterey Park)

who walks into a dance hall and guns down 20 people…” he says :roll_eyes::sweat: a lot of people in the U.S. apparently.

It still seems unclear if they’re still looking for the suspect.

I wonder if this thought occurred to some in the LDS: Imagine if Michael had to beat his family to death using only his fists; guns cause less pain and suffering.

I guess we are now doing multiple per day. (maybe need to change header to Today’s mass Shootings)

But it’s never about the easy access to weapons of mass annihilation, now, is it?

i think they’re contagious. guns are so easy to use, so easy to get, and so deadly. if a person even has a passing idea about it, it can become a reality. those on the edge, get sucked in after hearing about ones near them i think

I agree that copycats are a thing. This is just a little hard to take in. Holy shit…

also, in that article:

“OPD officers were dispatched to the area to investigate a ShotSpotter activation,” the statement read

i’m so glad they got the advertisement in there. it didn’t help stop the shooting, it didn’t even help them find the shooter. and in the end they still relied on reports to 911… but at least gun manufacturers and gun security theater can make money off it all. go capitalism #@$!

eta:

very much so. i’m right there with you. it’s awful :confused:
