I predict we won’t hear the end of this soon in this environment of fearmongering about wokeism just as I predict it won’t advance the gun debate an iota.
Aged 28, she was a former student. It was a private church school. The motive is unclear. Median age of a school shooter is 16
State officials already extended (and defended) the traditional issuance of Thoughts and Prayers TM.
you started the thread
no one was talking about it except to respond and its ended up in the same place as all the other threads you start
democracy, where even stupid people vote
hopefully a childhood of learning to hide from active shooters will spur them to change
your interpretation of my remarks as snide is completely incorrect. i just stated a fact. this thread would not exist if the killer wasn't who they were. mass killings are so passe that they dont warrant their own thread unless there is something unique about them. That is the reality.
Which is also what I have said. So your interpretation of my remarks as “pissed off at you” is similarly incorrect.
Your pithy deflections aside you made snide remarks about the OP/creation of the thread and when called out on your own agency to create the threads or with the narrative or slant you want you complained don’t exist, you seem eager to change the subject to whether I am tldr ‘triggered’ by you personally
no i'm pretty sure it was correct.
the issue at the end of the day is guns, which is where the thread ended up after a few posts
none of the other stuff age, gender matter
people like you making these things the issue is the real problem
It’s of course heavily about guns but that discussion will end up in the exact place it always does. “People like you” 🤣
63 children have been shot dead in the US in the first 3 months of 2023. Madness.
That's absolutely mental.
Check out this graph 'Current Causes of Death in Children and Adolescents in the United States'
4-5 times more likely for an adolescent to be shot to death than to drown.
Insider Paper on Twitter: "BREAKING: Police releases body-camera footage of the officers fatally shooting transgender shooter Audrey Hale inside the Nashville Covenant School https://t.co/blqZ9u8f0z" / Twitter
edited body cam ,
its like a f ing video game
It's really disgusting that RTE is showing the footage of the shooting to get clicks.
You expect this type of gutter rubbish media in America from the likes of CNN and Fox and so on.
Something I was told should have checked up my bad I see now they are 19th. Jesus America have a high amount per 100
Nope realised now. Should have done my research and not replied on something I heard
Specific resources and special skill? I could find the ingredients for a basic pipe bomb in my kitchen, for a proper big bang on I'd have to stroll 5 mins to the local hardware store. You think there is some FBI agent in Washington tracking the sales of vinegar and masonry nails/ball bearings??
The school shooting craze kicked off in 1999 but the overall numbers seemed to be dropping until right around 2013. I wonder what happened then because there is a big uptick in numbers.
Aside: Pretty amazing increases in vehicle safety over the course of that 20 year period. Number of deaths cut in half.
Why did they release that?
The dead victim on the floor even pixelated is beyond grim.
And you think everyone knows how to make these or has all the ingredients in the home?
A 6 year old can carry out a shooting but I have yet to see one spontaneously craft and use a pipe bomb.
TN Republican: welp can’t stop the gun just stop going to schools lol
Transparency so you can see the police did a good job - hard to accuse them of X,Y, Z when the whole thing is there to watch on a video.
Grim indeed though. The fact that we live in an age where we can watch POV stuff like this so soon after it happened never ceases to amaze (and disturb!) me.
I don't think that should out way the victims rights or their families.
I have never seen footage in instances like that released before, within 24 hours too.
Seems very cruel.
That's before you even consider the glorification element and possible contagion.
usually its due to pressure from groups who would claim that it was an execution or murder by LEO.
the fear of being labeled transphobic or whatever is worse than anything for some
I’d say kids being murdered in cold blood is a lot, lot worse than being labeled transphobic.
Nah mate it’s not because these are real people who were killed. That kid lying dead in the hallway is real.
It’s not a video game. It’s a sick reality that the yanks are too soft to wake up to. I feel sick from watching that video.
not because they shot your man/your one, but that child lying face down in the corridors, dead..
excuse me, I genuinely need a moment.
There was zero pressure from any quarter to release the footage from this that I have heard of.
Not a picture I would like to have in my head forever If I was a loved one of that victim.
Just seems very cruel and extremely inappropriate.
I would almost guarantee that everyone has the ingredients to make one in their home. I'm obviously not going to give out a list, but they are all very common kitchen items. A 6yo can on online and find it same as a 16 or 60 year old.
The only reason, that seems initially plausible to me, is down to Uvalde.
The blanket statement of guns is the leading cause of death in children is not true
This graph accounts for all Children and Adolescents up to 19 years old. Many 17 - 19 year olds die in gangland killings so the information is being skewed to push an anti gun agenda.
Gangs use guns right
Ani O'Brien on Twitter: "The violence being encouraged, justified, and excused in trans activist circles needs to be addressed. This statement is unbelievable. https://t.co/ydjkmmLAZ1" / Twitter
end of paragraph 6 ,
refers to the eradication of trans people by state actors .
it awful i agree but this where America is now and the world is a worse place for it,
