The shootings

ICouldBeYourDadover 8 years ago

So there's been a lot of shooting recently and the president isnt doing about it.

Australia had its worst mass shooting in 1996 on the 28th of April. 12 days later australia announced a bipartisan deal on sweeping gun control measures. The government brought back and destroyed over a million guns. We (australia) haven't had a mass shooting since.

Why is Trump not doing anything. Children are dying. People aren't living their full lives. If comforting those who have been through trauma and lost loved ones is all they can do b*llfucking sh*t. If saying it will be okay to those victims then saying that to gun owners should be fine too.

Sorry im just annoyed with how this has all been going down.

nothing will change until oppressed individuals start owning more guns and start putting pressure on the oppressors

im on the 'nothing will change' ship where the ' ss guns are good and protect my family' and 'ss guns cause mass homicide' are trying to sink one another

capitalism and the greatest imperialist power in the world is not going out with voting, its gonna be a violent overthrow, and i belive its moral and correct thing to do rn, because what you guys have done in the middle east and east asia is just criminal

"the real problem is mental illness" is a lazy argument that further stigmatizes mentally ill people as being violent.

we absolutely need a mental healthcare overhaul in america, but it's an easy scapegoat that republicans use while supporting programs and economic policies that defund and harm the mentally ill

also gun control is good

i mean the internet today deals in extremities so people see stricter gun laws as absolutely taking them away instead of making them less accessible...

so there's the argument against gun control being the absolute answer, but it certainly would save more lives probably
If people want to kill people they will kill people, yes.

But it would be pretty damn hard to kill more than 2 people in a big room with a knife, and I haven’t heard of many C4 attacks by nerdy white kids in a while .

I mean, if I was American I’d much rather take my chances getting blown up

u can go hunt, protect ur home, or just target practice with a bolt action rifle or a shotgun and both of those are infinitely less dangerous than assault rifles or easily concealable firearms

yeah no the american gov should be overthrown rn not when they "want to make its citizens slave" or anything dystopian, literally rn and that has been true for over a century

as a gun owner myself i still think its really weird that theres even a debate for the legality of assault rifles let alone other tactical weapons

i thinking disarming the people while militarizing the american police is gonna work out great, after all cops r true heros and not all racist monsters!
The argument for guns to use against tyrannical governments is a stupid one. If the government wants to make its citizens slaves all they are gonna do is take away your resources - electricity, gas, the internet etc...

So, get off that stupid a$$ conspiracy theory. If it ever calls for it you and your gun will be trapped in your basement living an episode of the walking dead

too much culture around guns, both as an outlier and a scapegoat. a knife is less effective than a gun but can still be sneaked underneath a belt. bombs are less accessible but black market exists. there's always gonna be tools for mass destruction no matter what

mental illness and forming acts of injustices through means of available firearms dont go hand in hand, i think

but i dont think anything will change so my soapbox isnt too big anyways

Racism from what? He was white. Killing 17 random people with a gun automatically makes you a psycho, aka nutjob.

If you can give me another reason why a person would shoot up a school, besides mental health issues, I'm all ears.
You won't be able to think of anything, so don't try too hard.
Yes, we know he was crazy. But he was crazy with a gun ,

As I said .. ultimately u can channel as much money int mental health as you want, however until you have the power to mind read, you’ll never be able to know when someone snaps, even with all your crazy tests .

Take away the guns and you can limit the damage of the crazies

u said a person not the specific florida shooter, sure when u think of racist mass shootings u think of the black churches one, but could happen in schools
Devanteover 8 years ago
I applaud this school however, the first ones who actually told you stupid cucks to stop letting the republicxnas tell you “it’s too early to talk about gun control after a shooting”

If u haven’t realized it will always be too early cus there will always be a shooting before you can finish grieving the last one
