I've now been within a couple miles of two mass shootings as they happened in my lifetime. C'mon America, let's make it three!

I'm actually fucked up off this.

Saw this on fb because everyone was marking themselves safe from it. Fucking nuts.

So weird that I can share a mass shooting tracker in a thread about mass shootings and get questioned on my agenda.

[adonis]

I've become pretty desensitised with seeing mass shootings in the news, but seeing this list always fucks me up. It seems like every weekend there's always 2 or 3 per day... Like how the fuck can anyone living in this shit be against all kinds of gun regulation?

Because a good chunk of this country lives in constant fear of their of government and their neighbors. Then stir in some american exceptionalism with some agitprop and cognitive dissonance and people honestly equate mass shooting with car accidents...

Add in decades of having the NRA shoving propaganda and "muh second amendment" down everyone's throats.

I haven't lived there in over a decade but my family still does. My cousin was there but thankfully left right before it happened so he's safe. The shooter was one of my uncle's neighbors apparently.

Plus there are literally thousands of white men in this country who believe that there's an invisible war being waged against them. Which is probably the most terrifying thing out of all this bullshit. :P

one of the victims was a 6 yr old kid, who was on a bouncy castle when he was shot and killed. So fucked up & sad.

I know but god damn it's a mind fuck man. Like even Poland, a violent and corrupt country full of legitimate Neo Nazis can regulate it.

As... opposed to America where that's not the case? 

[pisswizard]

If I run the world, I would make sure every time a murder or accidental death, if the gun was able to be tracked back to the place it was purchased, they would by law have to state the names and dates of every death in their store front and website.

Sounds like someone wants to move to Poland. I remember not long ago I’d write to punk bands from Poland and the recordings they made there WERE ILLEGAL. They had to sneak that shit out of the country.

The garlic festival shooting was an AK. Another weapon that serves to purpose other than fighting in a war aimed at alot of casualties very quick. AR's serve no purpose either. You cant hunt with them. Sport shooting is expensive. They are desighned for war and assault on humans, period.

AR’s will defend us when the 4th Reich descends upon our homes and tries to take us in the night.  Shotguns and handguns won’t do shit.

As much are you would love the idea of Wolfenstein becoming a reality, it's not going to happen. Even if it does, no one's going to win a guerrilla war against a high-tech military. It's pure fantasy. Same with any right-winged argument that guns are to defend against a tyrannical government. 300 years ago that was a good idea and worked. Not now and most likely not ever again.

Living in fear and hypotheticals of a civil war is a very poor way to live your life.

It’s not a fear of hypothetical anything. It’s responsibility in a world that historically favors fascism. To not be able to provide your homeland with any degree of defense against a fascist government is pure foolishness.

Maybe we should just admit that we live in a super fucked up society and people are going to go apeshit and kill people no matter what.

If it’s not guns it’s knives, petrol bombs, acid, and UHaul rentals.

I think our backwards capitalist culture is a big factor. Not so much rap music and video games, but the nature of the dog eat dog society we live in.

Should it be harder to obtain guns? I think so.

Registration and outright bans are fucking stupid. If that ever were to happen I’d lose mine somehow in a boating accident

I’ve states before - I own five and they all have a purpose. Also - people for sure hunt with ARs. I know three guys who took down elk w/ 308 and 6.5 creedmoor AR10s just this last year.

The world doesnt favor fascism muchacho. The world fought against it, remember? Humans are fucked, and power is gained through force. It doenst matter which side of a political spectrum you live on. There are just as many factions of the civilian population who fought against left winged governments too, and still do. Shaking in your boots because you think Hitler Pt. 2 is going to happen is absurd. More absurd than fearing some sort of religious apocalypse. But it's your life. Just dont kill others due to your paranoia.
