Ten dead in Boulder, Colorado

Active shooter reported at grocery store in Colorado: Boulder police (msn.com)

Oh come on - you know y'all were thinking it!

Ha! People got shot! I'm laughing so hard a little pee came out!

Douchebag.

Well it was either let him kill six people and a cop. I guess blue lives matter less than an asshole's second amendment rights.

glad I could add a little levity to your day - you're welcome!

This type of situation is a genunine concern at several Fred Meyers here in Portland, so fuck you, OF

But of course he thinks it's humorous... in his view it's just another American exercising his beloved second amendment rights. Nothing to see here. Another typical news today.

What a fucking douchebag @oldfella1962 is.

Preserving the thread title and OF's first post for posterity.

Not so funny if your spouse or child gets shot at the grocery store, I imagine.

"I nearly got killed for getting a soda and bag of chips."

Fucking hilarious, eh, @oldfella1962?

yes that would put a damper on your fun I guess.

Various news outlets reporting multiple people killed in Boulder.

LOL

Right? Right?

perhaps not. The joke was "cleanup on aisle five" but it may be somewhat off-putting.

Thoughts and prayers.

It’s too soon to talk about gun control though.

Gun control? These poor dead bastards are clearly crisis actors. Don't believe the liberal lamestream media!

Biden wants to ban certain types of weapons and magazines - I'm sure that will be sufficient.

Beats doing nothing, which is what we've been doing for over a decade now.

We already have hundreds if not thousands of gun laws on the books. The problem is crazy people and criminals don't follow laws too well for some reason.

We can't stop people from committing mass murder so we shouldn't even try.

So, what's the solution, then? Hand everyone a gun? Tell me, how many mass shootings have there been in the UK, France, Australia, Germany, Ireland, Austria, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Italy, and Spain, in the past 20 years? To name just a portion of the countries that could be considered on par with the US in many ways. The combined total number of people in those nations is larger than that of the US. Ya think that the combined total number of people killed in mass shootings in those countries is anywhere close to what it is in the US? WTF kind of American Exceptionalism do we have if it results in more people being gunned down than in 11 other countries combined? Tell me, exactly what makes us better than those countries? All of whom have equivalent standards of living to the US and, in general, greater life expectancy than we do. What is the thing that we have that makes us so much better than them?

Um... not to be a dick in this thread, but objectively speaking most of those countries on your list don't have equivalent standards of living to the US; they have better standards.

Ten people dead. Ten.

God bless America.

Freedumb! 'murica fuck yeah! It's the right of private citizens to keep and bear arms that make slaughter on an industrial scale that makes us the best country in the world!

The last time someone (me) created a thread about a grocery store shooting, it got us a new member, but they didn't post much.

I'm not sure what you think cracking jokes about something like this does to get ahead of the criticism of legal gun ownership, but I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. It doesn't.

Including a cop!

@oldfella1962 must be laughing his ass off.

This gets funnier and funnier! Right OF?

@oldfella1962 "Something something black on black crime something something obesity something something Sandbox something something knock knock."

Why would you add levity to 10 people dying unnecessarily like an hour after it happened?

Like what the fuck is wrong with you?
