Fair enough, perhaps I was thinking of the "from my cold, dead hands" clip that was implied to have been part of said rally.Quote:

Mass murders by ordinary citizens armed with guns do not happen every day in civilized countries, they happen once in a generation or even less. They happen frequently in barbaric places like Iraq and the USA.Quote:

It was their ANNUAL RALLY, that was ALREADY PLANNED WAY AHEAD OF TIME.
But you already knew that, fucking bitch.
To feel that hopeless and disconnected to want to kill a bunch of kids is unimaginable.
Why are you saying this in reply to me? I haven't said anything to the contrary.Quote:

Keep the jokes and politics out of this thread, we have 17 dead 5 and 6 year olds for fuck sakes.
You're numb to 5 year olds being murdered en masse?Quote:

You people who instantly politicize this are ignorant. You have a problem and that is the relative easy availability of weapons of mass destruction.
Absolutely 0% chance this topic becomes anything other than fodder for liberal vs. conservative shit flinging.Quote:

You think people with kids are feigning sympathy for 18 small children who died in such a barbaric way? You even think I and others have a political agenda?
Your're a total lost course.
Emigration is your last chance.

I've also never stepped foot into the States in my life. Just looking through the window. Zero agenda and sadly zero surprise.

I would have completely avoided this thread unless someone that has a gun in their avatar came out and did a full blown Bob Costas about banning the very thing his avatar glorifies. Call me a reactionary.Quote:

There are over 200 million firearms in America.
It would be impossible to enforce a ban on guns.
The big question here is how do we arm all 340 million people in this country?
:doublefacepalm
Pretty sure it was an annual meeting that was scheduled well before the Colorado shootings, and was help about 11 days after the event. Many smaller events were cancelled, but the large meeting was planned years in advance, and pretty much had to be held.Quote:

I haven't been this affected by a news story by 9/11. Saw the number '18' floating around in terms of child casualties, the exact number of students that I taught in Nepal.
Pretty soon we'll be looking at a stream of smiling school pictures of children who were wiped out by a lunatic with guns. Wonderful world.
It took the children aspect for me to do a double take on this one; 'mass shooting' has become too common.
Jesus fucking Christ, what else needs to happen in order for gun control laws. Do we need to hit a magic number of kids killed in one school.
I know that. And you think it's ok to continue to have their rally in the city where that massacre happened less than 2 weeks later? If they had a shred of decency they would have moved or postponed it.Quote:

What would you be saying right now if al-Qaeda had shot up the school?
and you are a-ok with the so-called Ground Zero Mosque right?
Because you should not be numb you should be outraged.Quote:
