    Actually don't watch the video on that tweet. You can see the red dot aim on the black dude before you hear the shots

    I wished I'd scrolled down to your post before I watched the video. And I can only thank you post once and I wish I'd not watched it.

    Two people die each second world wide.

    Yeah but not by playing a video game – or at school.

    Is it the sound that makes it so disturbing? I'd only watched it with no sound.

    Are you saying it is another religious group or something. Most mass shooting's in America have had nothing to do with that religion and there is nothing to signify this one is any different

    Yes. I caught the first few seconds and muted it as soon as I realised what was going on. Not worth listening to. The actual footage shows nothing, thankfully...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 828 ✭✭✭JaMarcus


    Nothing will.

    If Sandy Hook couldn't be a catalyst for change, then nothing will.

    That was literally the worst imaginable gun crime. Not to sound distasteful, but if you were to "design" a shooting that you thought would be the last straw for the masses, it would involve young, defenseless children and their teachers in a school setting.

    And absolutely nothing changed.

    Yeah judging by the comments here I'm glad I didn't then.

    My thoughts exactly. We've all become somewhat desensitised to this type of news when it comes out of America but ffs, some people have no respect for the dead / injured....its as if the US owes them something for pointing out the obvious

    That is true I actually went to the conspiracy forum to see if there was anything up there yet. Not yet but give it time.

    Ha, ironic coming from you.


    It's all part and parcel of the world leader of freedom ;)

    Just watched the clip on MSNBC. They beeped out the swears but not the gunshots. That's US priorities for you. Listen to someone die is fine, swearing is a no no.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,779 ✭✭✭Pinch Flat


    Surely someone had a gun on them to shoot back? No?

    Maybe why suspect is dead but how long do you think it took for someone to take out there gun if in fact someone had 1. Which shows how stupid the statement is it there were guns this would not happen

    Friends and family of the deceased. People in the gaming community. Common decent people.

    I respect American resilience. In this nation, there would be massive knee jerk reactions.
    Got beaten by a baseball bat? Ban all baseball bats.
    Stabbed with a sword? Ban all swords because you can't ****ing stab with a long knife.
    Ban ban ban because if someone wants to kill someone they'll just give up because they don't have an access to a sword. I love Americans and their constitution protecting their rights not retarded knee jerk reactions which do nothing.

    I know one person who would have cared.

    A legendary former poster called KeithAFC.

    Sadly he's no longer with us, but his spirit briefly lived on through another poster Patrick_Cleburne, who is also no longer with us.

    Thankfully you are here to remind us of these fallen legends.

    There was a GIF in those now blank posts. It was: I'm going to say something, my mouth is moving – STOP! Hesitation – ending in the realisation of it being likely better – to say nothing at all, kind of thing...
