Quite a bit different than Uvalde.
Did you read the post I responded to? Context matters. If conservatives are to blame for people having the guns, liberals are to blame for the culture that gets them to shoot.Gotta be the liberals.
I would like to thank the officer for putting 3 more into that bitch to make sure she wasn't going to get a trial.
You left out churches, online extremism (let's face it, mostly right wing). I've yet to see a shooter holding 30 kids hostage yelling about Medicare for All.Did you read the post I responded to?

Social media companies, entertainment, news, and music are all dominated by the left and that is what spreads the culture. Same logic in play.

I get it. I'm being cheeky. I've been pretty consistent that mass shooters aren't motivated by ideology. They are motivated by being nucking futs. They're crazy. Insane. Should be in an institution. But we don't do that anymore.![]()
The Demented - and Selective - Game of Instantly Blaming Political Opponents For Mass Shootings
All ideologies spawn psychopaths who kill innocents in its name. Yet only some are blamed for their violent adherents: by opportunists cravenly exploiting corpses while they still lie on the ground.greenwald.substack.com
After every shooting it is the right's fault. The dude in Buffalo was a racist socialist that hated conservatives. We got that blame. This trans beeyotch and we still are getting the blame. DC GENERAL'S other thread about mass shootings, I lay money most of those are inner city and gang related. Those aren't GOP voters or supporters.

There is no overthinking going on. There was a professor at Wayne State University (who was thankfully fired) who just advocated for killing speakers like the judge that showed up to speak at Stanford. I just can't do the bullshit today.

You’re ready for a WOKE WAR!!!There is no overthinking going on. There was a professor at Wayne State University (who was thankfully fired) who just advocated for killing speakers like the judge that showed up to speak at Stanford. I just can't do the bullshit today.
Trans-terrorism has taken more lives than the J6 movement. Isn't that how we do these things? Stop radical tran-terrorism, we need red flags laws to keep mentally unstable gender dysphorics from having access to guns. They are dangerous individuals hopped up on hate and hormones.You’re ready for a WOKE WAR!!!

Also, I remember Greenwald before he got so f*cking jaded. Motherf*cker used to write for Counterpunch and Buzzflash (talk about yer lefty rags, Counterpunch is damn near anarchy).![]()

Bull and shit. Psychopaths cling to just about anything other than ideology. The ideology did nothing. Better watch that shit Glenn, you're wandering into censorship territory. Also, he can cry about liberal weirdos killing people in an article ostensibly about not blaming an ideology while noting that ideologies spawn psychopaths while not acknowledging that, were this to be true, the right wing flavor of ideologies is doing a 5:1 dance on the liberal psychopaths. I don't think he means to have that argument, but his writing talent has fallen off a cliff.All ideologies spawn psychopaths who kill innocents in its name. Yet only some are blamed for their violent adherents: by opportunists cravenly exploiting corpses while they still lie on the ground.
Yet virtually nobody sought to blame Chris Hayes, Joy Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Jamelle Bouie or New York Times op-ed writers for these shooting sprees. Indeed, no blame was assigned to anti-police liberal pundits whose view of American history is exactly the same as that of these two killers — even though they purposely sought to murder the same enemies whom those prominent liberals target.
'The Libs' reacting to this story seem to be trying to specifically talk about school/mass shootings in supposed safe public areas.![]()

And this is where i think the circle comes together for folks like you, me, and Crazy.'The Libs' reacting to this story seem to be trying to specifically talk about school/mass shootings in supposed safe public areas.
The variables seem to be pretty simple...dudes and guns.
Some conservatives here keep trying to change the subject and/or deflect (it's the blacks, it's the porn, it's the trans, it's the left, yada yada yada) as they focus the narrative on 'the dudes' part of the equation.
It's never about the guns even though 'the guns' are the one variable that differentiates us from pretty much every other country, particularly every other advanced country.
It's not complex, if you want to have the amount of guns, the ease of acquisition and the lack of accountability per gun owner.....people are going to shoot each other and are at risk in even safe spaces.
Like saying if we remove all speed limits because they are tyrannical displays of government overreach.... predictably more people are going to be killed via the car.
That's why gun lovers get ripped on for their 'thoughts and prayers', for trying so hard to deflect and for trying to come up with solutions that still allow 'the guns' to be handled as is (ie we need stormtroopers guarding the entrances into the bunkers that should now be our schools 40 feet underground).
Most Americans want discussions about 'the guns'. It's actually pretty bipartisan. Yet it keeps getting shot dead via certain right wing politicians who have the NRA lining their pockets.
I just want to get to a level of either saying f#$k it and we just live with the ramifications as the American way or let's get to work and at a minimum better regulate it because the same threads with the same reactions are getting old and lead to nothing.
Keep in mind this is through 2018. Ummm it hasn't improved.a reminder of the trend...

Man I like how that sounds!!! Trans-terrorism!!!Trans-terrorism has taken more lives than the J6 movement. Isn't that how we do these things?

Yikes Lars, you're our Ted Lasso that we look for optimism (well I do).I get it. I'm being cheeky. I've been pretty consistent that mass shooters aren't motivated by ideology. They are motivated by being nucking futs. They're crazy. Insane. Should be in an institution. But we don't do that anymore.
I wish I had more time. I have thoughts. I really think our biology is utterly confused by our intelligence. Evolution is tricky and messy. We (humans) are in this weird epoch where our cognitive abilities are evolving faster than our physical capabilities . To the point we are actively replacing physical work with machines. As Twenty noted earlier someday his job will be done by a computer.
We're just scratching the surface of societal insanity. If we don't end up with UBI or some kind of system to take care of 70% of the population (due to lack of way to earn the currency necessary to eat in our world), we're doomed.
Right now will look rose colored compared to 20 years from now.
Yeah gee I don’t know. If my friends were slaughtered in high school, I might become a political activist too. Maybe peop,e who value their guns over kids lives are the ones who should eat shit.David Hogg is a political activist.
He can indeed eat shit.
I’m not any more afraid to call Audrey mentally ill than I am to call the 99% of white male shooters mentally ill. Anyone who chooses to slaughter people is mentally ill. That’s pretty simple.I've noticed my side has been conspicuously quiet relative to the race/gender of Audrey Hale. So afraid we are to call a trans person mentally ill.
We'll do back flips to avoid it. Tragic.
It's always Us vs them and always the victim isn't it.
They're all mentally ill (mass shooters). Yet, Crazy is not entirely wrong that media, and their online syncophants (left or right), just sit and wait for the social media profiles to emerge so they can blame somebody other than the person whose mental illness led to tragedy.I’m not any more afraid to call Audrey mentally ill than I am to call the 99% of white male shooters mentally ill.

Yeah but this is trans-terrorism. Okay. Wow. Wow. New world order.They're all mentally ill (mass shooters). Yet, Crazy is not entirely wrong that media, and their online syncophants (left or right), just sit and wait for the social media profiles to emerge so they can blame somebody other than the person whose mental illness led to tragedy.
Several things encourage these tragedies and literally none of those things is ideology. B/c if they were motivated solely by ideology, they wouldn't be insane. They'd be John Wick.
Is that like the Trans Siberian Orchestra?Yeah but this is trans-terrorism
I texted my ex that I’m going to need a list of all the trannies 1) at my daughter’s school and 2) that my ex regularly visits. #trans-terrorism.Is that like the Trans Siberian Orchestra?
She may not want to tell you her......secret.I texted my ex that I’m going to need a list of all the trannies 1) at my daughter’s school and 2) that my ex regularly visits. #trans-terrorism.
I haven’t gotten a reply yet.
I'm probably way too simplistic but, as Murt said, social media.And this is where i think the circle comes together for folks like you, me, and Crazy.
Why are we men losing our collective shit over the last 40 years? That's real and should be a non ideological question that we need to answer.
Irrelevant sidebar:Yikes Lars, you're our Ted Lasso that we look for optimism (well I do).
That was pretty dark!
Watched the first two episodes. Depressed me.Irrelevant sidebar:
Speaking of Ted Lasso, I think Rupert has one of Lasso's players purposely injured (Zava or Jamie) and Ted loses his shit and punches him in public.
And they weren't trying to be caught. I think you're right on the infamy part. You have to get caught or killed trying. And let's face it, way easier to target a school than cops or adults.Cop killers and serial killer were so 1990's.
Aw shit yeah, I could totally see that with what you've experienced. I never would have made that obvious connection.Watched the first two episodes. Depressed me.
At a certain point hoos, I kind of reflect back what I get. Winners had a post talking about conservatives being the devil and I regurgitated his talking points back to him and changed the villain.If you were looking to get people to take you as seriously as they take winners, then congrats...mission accomplished. 🤷♂️
