Talk about trauma. [/quote]

The UVA students were on lockdown for 12 hours so this isn’t new.[/quote]

Can you say a little more about why you posted this? [/quote]

Exactly. Why?[/quote]

To illustrate that school shootings and long lockdowns are not a one-off in the US, particularly when the shooter doesn't commit suicide or get shot by police. [/quote]

But they are much much more common.  This is stupid.

This is like the anti seatbelt morons back in the day.  BUT SOMEONE ONE DIES WHILE WEARINF A SEATBELT, SEE THEM THAR SEATBEKTS DINT WERK!

[b]The backlash to this is going to end up being a repeal on the 2nd [/b]because these children in the GOP couldn’t stop with the gun lobby money for 5 seconds.[/quote]

Which is exactly why I’ve come to accept and somewhat tolerate these shootings, because what I want more than anything is to abolish the second amendment.

At the risk of sounding callous and cruel, I hope these shootings continue on right up until we as a culture decide to eliminate gun owning. Because if shootings become less frequent over time, we will lose a lot of the public sentiment and inertia we’ve built up to banning guns. So as perverse as it sounds, if you’re someone who wants to get rid of guns, you need to embrace these shootings as a necessary evil. The end goal is what’s important. No great movement in history is achieved without pain. The civil rights struggle and LGBTQIA rights struggle are the most recent examples. People died to achieve those victories, and ending gun ownership is no different. Unfortunately more people will need to die to achieve that goal. [/quote]

You are unhinged. Charlie Kirk also celebrated mass shootings as a necessary evil in order to advance his political goals. And look what happened to him.

After Sandy Hook, I completely gave up on the possibility of sensible gun control in this country. If the mass murder of a bunch of little kids didn't motivate Republicans to at least put some sensible and common sense rules into place, nothing will. Republicans are nuts when it comes to guns. And no tragedy will change their opinion. They immediately think if only there was a kid in the classroom with a Glock, the problem would be solved. That's how Republicans think. There is no reasoning with Republicans today. They are so far gone.

Looks the shooter at Brown is a white male in his 30s who was picked up at a Hampton Inn. So he traveled to do this. I suspect it's unlikely he's a disgruntled student with mental issues that snapped. More likely, he's another MAGA loser brainwashed by Silicon Valley algorithms. And that's the real enemy today - Silicon Valley. Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadella, Peter Thiel - these are the men shaping all these extremists.  [/quote]
