Drugs have probably done more to harm our society than any other factor. Looking back at high school I had to read a book called "Brave New World". In this world a drug called Soma was used to control the population. They fed this drug to people and the people followed along with no resistance.

I remember asking my English literature teacher if that could ever happen in our society. She laughed and said it was all science fiction. I wonder if she is still alive today because I would like to ask her that question now.
Huxley, like Orwell knew exactly what was going on and what was to come.

from the 2nd link

‘a spokesman for the Texas Department of Public Safety, said the gunman wore a vest used to store extra magazines — often used by tactical police units — without the armor plates that law enforcement officers typically wear.’
Either way the price of a cheap plate carrier isn’t anything compared to the cost of the weapons, optics and ammunition. He must have put a ton of hours in at Wendy’s before quitting.
 
he lived with his grandparents, probably had no bills, and was an incel with no social life. Wouldn’t be that hard to save it
He shot his own gramdmother over a phone bill. I would say he was broke as a joke.

Do you have any idea how long it takes to save up 4K worth of money working at Wendys? Don't forget taxes. It's possible, but damn.

Maybe he got some stimmy money, idk. Whatever the case, he got his flow from somewhere. This seems to be a recurrent question in these situations. This one was talking to someone online too. Supposedly a German chick who he detailed his plans to.

What happened to the days of when Dem/libs lamented big money in politics? Of course 'dark money' and union donations didn't count.

 
Black families were better off in the 50's than today. You need to look at both the positive and negative of an era.
True on black family lives. That doesn't excuse discrimination in the least though. Think how much better even they'd have been. Agree?

I didn't state the positives by saying everything was great except two items? How many specific + 's did I need to list to satisfy you?
 
I guess when you get down to it it's just part of American culture. Basically if you're not a WASP you or your ancestors have faced some sort of bigotry in this country.
It's bigotry when one race (black) kills another (white) all out of proportion that the other way. Like 12x than the other way. Fact. You know how many unarmed black men were killed by police in 2021? SIX.
 
Jesus. School district security and local police stood around for 20 mins while the shooter was inside barricaded in a classroom full of kids. Waited for a tactical team to show up and put him down. The doors were supposed to be locked but apparently were not at the time. They arrived before he was in the school, exchange fire, didn't manage to keep him contained. im sure they were following procedure but just shows that good guys with guns don't stop a detemined nutjob with guns. This school district has an extensive security plan and armed officers, didn't help. The kid bought 2 rifles, 400 rounds of ammo, and a dozen 30 round mags on the day of his 18th birthday, which was last week, and nobody thought it was a good idea to figure out wtf he needed that shit for. And nothing will happen after this like always.

Your reading comprehension sucks. You constantly see stuff that isn't there.

No. I quoted & wrote:

"
The 50s were the best time. 50s and early 60s seems like an alternate universe.
Outside rampant discrimination and lack of AC, pretty much so."

and yet you said I need to consider both the positives & negatives - which that post post clearly had. Net, YOU can't deal with clearly being called out.
 
All of the top 10 safest cities in blue states and almost 75% of the top 100! guess red states are full of murderers! lmao. like its breaking news that suburbs full of privileged rich white people have less crime. Any crime they do commit they just pay to go away. Who could of guessed that poor people crammed into small areas like to fight with each other.
