To this article every time there is a school shooting. This problem is unique to the US. We are the only advanced country where this happens, but idiots will repeatedly say "nothing we can do about it." An intellectually open person would at least use their brain and question why this insurmountable challenge has been solved everywhere else but here. A satire site absolutely nails it.
Of course the crooked politicians who take money from the nra will all pray real hard to their God on TV this weekend and send prayers for the dead kids again. So they have that going for them.

Re: We should script this site to link
Yep. It's amusing though watching the simpletons slobber on themselves to attack the NRA for protecting rights. Meanwhile these same knuckle draggers support video game violence, removing spanking from school, and all the other social constructs that humanize each other while tempering wants against discipline. They're creating self entitled monsters that can't cope with life and so act out in epic tantrums.RiverguyVT wrote:The NRA has exactly zero...nothing...to do with these shootings.

No need to be disparaging. Keep it civil.
I don’t need to ”prove” the lack of NRA culpability. You brought the NRA into this, so should “back it up with supporting data” rather than asking me to prove a negative.
Is the shooting Uber’s fault? I mean...they (Uber) actually carried & delivered a gun toting whack job to the school, and dropped him off. Oddly (Atta boy), you don’t invoke Uber in your OP, even though Uber quite literally touched the tragedy.

Nice rant.
Pro tip: examine the term "proximate cause" and get back to us.
Watermelons cause drownings, because in months of high drownings, more watermelons are consumed. That's your position.

In New Hampshire, you don't even need a permit to carry a concealed handgun.
Again: our crime rate compares favorably with western Europe when comparing similar demographics. Our crime rate compares favorably with sub Sahara Africa when comparing similar demographics.

On the flip side, most won't comply. A stat they don't like to talk about is that only 40% of Australians complied with their ban and turned their guns in. Of course, they also like to forget that Australia had incredibly low homicide rates before and after the ban.

I'm amused that the NRA is correlated to the shooting, in his mind, but that the guy who actually picked the shooter up and delivered him (with weaponry in hand) to the scene has no relationship to the situation at all. Because, you know, there's Uber in Finland or something like that...
