Of all the stupid things you have said today this has to be the stupidest. For someone so passionate about protecting the 2nd amendment, you have no problem directly contradicting the 1st amendment. You know the one that allows freedom of religion no matter what you believe in.Honestly, and I’ll get ripped for this (probably because it’s true and people sort of know it deep down), but there’s really only one way to curve these mass killings. Give people hope.
There’s only one way to do that. You have to believe a higher power is in control. Some will reject it sure, but some will be changed. Gun control measures will not deter a man dead set on killing if he wants to be a mass murderer. He’ll find a way.
The problem is many in this country want to be Godless and they also want people to feel a sense of morality. Well that’s not going to happen. Many non believers can live openly and peacefully, but many younger non believers with real mental issues cannot. They need a natural deterrent that only a higher power can bring. A sense that there’s something out there that feels their pain and is watching over them.
So people can bash away, but the further we remove God from our communities, the worse this will get. And banning my right to own my weapons isn’t going to stop people from dying.
Why do unbelievers insist on insulting believers like this? He didn't call you stupid. Why call him stupid?Of all the stupid things you have said today this has to be the stupidest.

I doubt you ever made it far enough through school to learn about evolution, but it completely disproves your holy book that you swear has all the answers.

Damned Republicans.Transgender mentally ill
This is not directed at you, Catfan, but what kind of twisted freak show of a website RE-posts that article the very same day of the shooting. "Oh, you thought this was bad? Check out this thing that was worse! Gimme gimme those clicks and ad revenue!!!!"Wasn‘t done with guns.
Steve Kerr is the Rex Chapman of NBA coachesNot shocked at all he got up on the podium and threw some water in his eyes. Dude could watch inner-city Chicago shootings for an entire year and not even blink. But a "mass shooting" happens and he gets out his soap box.
This doesn't happen in other countries who don't have guns like we do. It's very simple, get rid of all the ****ing guns in America.
Sure people can still try with a kinfe or some other weapon but you can't do near as much damage or near as fast. The only answer is to get rid of all the guns. I'm sure that's gonna piss everyone off but idc, I'm sick of innocent people being slaughtered
Sounds great. How? Be specific.It's very simple, get rid of all the ****ing guns in America….The only answer is to get rid of all the guns.
Based on what is social media the root cause here though? I mean I get your sentiment, but this smells a whole lot like blaming Wolfenstein 3D for Columbine.How about you actually put social media on point to start to scan for posts like the one that this kid posted prior to the incident? They make billions of dollars a year and can immediately tell me that something I post is "inaccurate" so they are obviously watching, then why can't they set up filters for this crap and immediately notify police in the jurisdiction? Between that and people in general staying vigilant and not being afraid to call out those that they suspect are a danger to themselves or others, that's what keeps these things from happening. Don't be confused with what "gun control" means versus what you would get out of it. Gun control is a way for the government to control the other 99.99999999% of people who use guns responsibly, what they want to do it isn't going to control these situations.
Be fair though. Can’t ignore guns play a factor here. I agree they politicize, but anger is also understandable. No one has solutions. And this story will go away in two weeks.This is so sick it’s unreal.
I’ve been trying to get news on who these kids are and what happened to them, but I can’t get it. Why? Because the left cannot stop politicizing this issue for 5 seconds in order to even present the issue at hand. One morning news anchor went on a 5 minute diatribe about gun control legislation (that wouldn’t have stopped this) and at the end of his rant, said “and we want those victims to know we’re praying for them”. Good lord people, these are kids. For people like Biden to come out immediately and scream at gun owners? People that had nothing at all to do with the shooting, and push for unnamed legislation, in order to evade his disastrous presidency and point fingers? This is the President?
We are living in a sick world and it’s got nothing to go with guns, that I can assure you.

These Are The Victims Of The Texas School Shooting
All 21 victims were reportedly in the same classroom.www.huffpost.com
Here ya go
gun” isn’t going to work with people who know these weapons. If you want to debate it we can, but you might want to at least check the issue out further because I personally don’t argue people coming from a position of ignorance on firearms. It’s just not worth it. on firearms. It’s just not worth it. Remove the bayonet lug, flash hider, fix the stock in place, do whatever you want to do to limit the “scary” look, it’s all the same.
did you actually read my post or are you just retarded?We continue to believe the fairy tale that these measures will curve a mass shooter. It won’t. If a guy is dead set on killing massive amounts of people, nothing you are wwsuggesting will work. And saying nuh uh when corrected on misusing gun terms won’t work either.
did you actually read my post or are you just retarded?
I didn't say social media was the reason, I simply said that they can filter these situations and notify police. In this case I wouldn't expect them to go to this kids house, but they can monitor him and/or the target if it is identified. They follow people around for a whole lot less these days. My point is that there are a lot of ways to identify potential risk which should be explored and that gun control as everyone envisions it won't fix most if not all of these situations, it's just going to handcuff the rest of the gun owners that have the right intentions and would gladly use their rights to stop this guy given then chance.Based on what is social media the root cause here though? I mean I get your sentiment, but this smells a whole lot like blaming Wolfenstein 3D for Columbine.
Now, what’s interesting about your post is using AI to spot anomalies and using it to detect potential psychopaths. That’s possible, but not sure AI is to the point to do that accurately. Also, raises all kinds of ethical problems.
Just have everyone turn them in. Simple really. That will work. Actually, the problem always seems to be a lack of guns where needed.Sounds great. How? Be specific.
Methodology in any study tends to determine its outcome. My guess is the type of shooting we're talking about here are a small part of the "mass shootings" they studied. They also have no personal knowledge, just what was written. Until recently no one gave a damn if the killer was mentally ill. They would have described evil far more often than sickness.Mental illness is a copout. Mental illness is prevalent all throughout the world, it isn't something unique to the US, yet the US is the only developed country in the world where mass shootings is an everyday thing and school shootings are a common occurrence.
Are All Mass Shooters Mentally Ill?
www.michiganpsychologicalassociation.org
A new study is questioning the mental state of mass shooters. The research, co-led by Gary Brucato, research scientist in Columbia University's Department of Psychiatry in New York City, along with his colleagues sought to gain much-needed insight into the relationship between serious mental illness and mass shootings. Creating a mass murder database involved extensive review of 14,785 murders publicly described in English in print or online, occurring worldwide between 1900 and 2019. They then analyzed 1,315 mass murders of all types that occurred worldwide. The article was published recently in the journal Psychological Medicine.
They discovered that only 11% of all mass murderers (including shooters) and only 8% of mass shooters had a serious mental illness. They also found that mass shooters in the United States were more likely to have legal histories, use recreational drugs, abuse alcohol, and have histories of non-psychotic psychiatric or neurologic symptoms.
In addition, the researchers noted that most mass shooters used non-automatic firearms. Among U.S. mass shooters, those with any psychiatric or neurologic condition were more likely to use semi-automatic guns than non-automatic guns. They also found that since 1970, the rate of mass shootings has been far higher than the rate of non-firearm mass murder, and that the vast majority of mass shootings in the world have been in the United States.
Before the 90's most school shootings involved two males either fighting over a female or bullying. Very little mass shootings. Then mass shootings became the norm. It is odd.Anything to do with kids is heartbreaking to me. Pure evil. Worst nightmare as a parent. What's enraging is the disingenuous assholes who constantly want to play politics who are incredibly silent when something doesn't fit their narrative.
Everyone speculates on this topic and simplifies it to "guns." There's a massive cultural issue here. Many factors involved---mental health, demographics, contributing factors to the decline of mental health, etc.
Before the 90s, school shootings were nearly non-existent. What changed? Guns were around long before that. No one wants to have those discussions because God forbid we analyze anything other than 'guns bad.' No one wants to discuss where the majority of gun violence comes from either.
I'd absolutely argue that violent video games have an effect on those who are mentally unstable. It's desensitizing. Does that mean that everyone who plays these games is a psycho? Nope. Not at all. For those who are mentally unstable, there's no way you can say that consuming violence and death doesn't contribute to their declining mental health. I imagine it's the same effect as the rapists who watch violent hardcore pornography.It’s hard to believe that in 2022 we still have a few people that actually think video games cause gun violence. I mean the literature is there, it’s so settled you don’t hear the old advocates still using it as a reason. Yet here I am, being told I’m retarded by a guy that cites controlling video game content as a measure to stop gun violence.
I’m telling ya, pluck two gnats off a dogs ass and more can be accomplished this day and age.
Cals right, I’m going home to walk the dogs.
