Might I remind you that you were the first to bring it up. Then you got defensive and wanted to change it and claim I blamed all shootings on immigrants which I never did. You tried to scapegoat anyone who doesn’t fit your stereotype of an ‘American’. Totally fucked up and why you’re an ignorant moron…..and dumb for good measure.

Guest Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 49 minutes ago, SnowRider said: Or US gun culture, easier access to guns than mental health professionals, US gun laws are becoming more lax, and as you’ve seen - gun lovers look for scapegoats instead of addressing the facts and issue. Truth is they love their guns more than kids. Not necessarily the point I was trying to make as this cultural issue is world wide but yes it is possible that it provides a far easier method to gaining the attention they desire in their society. Other countries still have issues though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids today feel a sense of entitlement on what they feel are their rights and freedoms and don't anyone dare tell them different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member SnowRider Posted August 11, 2023 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted August 11, 2023 Still pointing fingers….now it’s kids today but somehow the generation one belongs to is exempt? The median age of a mass shooter is 32……but by all means keep looking for a scapegoat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bontz Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Having to reclassify a mass shooting with as low as four people involved paints a pretty blatant picture. Anything to get those scary guns in the headlines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raising or lowering the bar for mass shootings really doesn't save any lives does it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
