    You’re confusing spree killers with mass shooters.

    Freedom Ain’t Free.

    Let us all thank this family for offering their blood and the lifelong trauma to their six year old so that a neo-Nazi that had been found mentally unstable by the military was able to easily access an assault rifle.

    Because that is the true measure of liberty. His ability to commit mass murder is proof that we are still a free country.

    Thank you Cho family for your sacrifice. :salute:

    I'm wearing exactly the same outfit right now as Kyu in that photo. It's odd the little things that make something feel much more real.

    Don't worry, when you finally snap on your manager at Subway and start shooting up the food court to impress Tulsi Gabbard, we'll attribute your behavior solely to you and not all those Nazi YouTube videos you've been watching.

    he's a high school student using the buzz words and dog whistles of AIM/WAR and you're arguing that he was created in a vacuum?

    yet you can't grasp why you look like an apologist for trying to deflect their obvious influence in his acting...

    I do find this to be part of the problem. Presidents do this really soft demand for gun control after the shooting. You have this position where you demand the press attention every single day, and you could make a huge issue out of it. Meanwhile you make a hopes and prayers speech and then nothing while you are in power. Then after you are out of power you are all demanding.

    Maybe you do a little more than strongly worded letters after you are no longer president. It isn't like these guys didn't have the most powerful seat in the land for over a decade.

    So I guess we will wait for at least two years until Joe wakes the fuck up and decides fighting against guns is something he wants to do? Obama never came for any guns while he was in office, but now he is all concerned about stopping all of this.

    This is why we have guns everywhere.

    The NRA community turned UA into this with their social contagion.

    What's funny about it? The media found a bunch of public things and the police confirmed some details, but I don't think any private manifesto has been released for him either?

    What information are you alleging that authorities have treated differently in regards to him compared to the school shooter?

    With all due respect, what the incomprehensible fuck are you complaining about?

    I was responding to your very specific claim, which I even bolded in your quoted post to highlight that was what I was referring to.

    To highlight it again, your very specific claim, which would show up in looking at the numbers, was:

    In response to that I asked first for clarification on the "We've been through this" part, by asking when, because I genuinely don't remember it being shown and if you're right then referring back to that earlier discussion you clearly think people should remember would save a lot of time.

    Secondly, I posted graphs showing
    1. Reported Crime in the US (1990 to 2021)
    2. US Murder Rate (1960 to 2020)
    3. Mass Shooting in the US (1982 to 2022)
    4. Gun deaths in the US (1999 to 2017)
    The earliest that any of them cut off is 2017, so none of them can be from the 70s, unless you're alleging the information was fraudulently made up decades in advance or were left behind by a careless time traveller.

    Those are the only ways your post makes sense, because the only other option is that you took what would be the, let's be honest, horrendously stupid view of not realising that when a graph includes extra historical data for context you can just start looking at it from the relevant time when it crosses over to the time periods covered by other graphs.

    All that said, I have just realised that two of them are showing per capita and two of them are showing totals so it's not the best comparison as it doesn't account for shifting US population. Do you still stand by your claim that "We've been through this. Gun violence trends with crime rates."? If so I can find per capita data for all the presented stats, and we should see a clear correlation in trends between them if your claim is correct.

    Hey the white supremacist texass shooter who was actually a mexican had an interesting online nickname. It seems he idolized a certain white redneck character and called himself dusty shackleford. Do we know any little racist white bois who used the shackleford nick while telling us all about conspiracy theories ahbout jewish cabals controlling the world?

    It is almost like that character was written to mock crazy white supremacists who instead took the name as a badge. Because this is an actual stereotype in texass because people all know texass racist conspiracy theory nutbars.
