Elementary School Shooting

[SrslySirius]

Why are you saying this in reply to me? I haven't said anything to the contrary.

Because you should not be numb you should be outraged.

Well, sorry. I'm also not particularly outraged about so many children dying from automobile accidents, drownings, or neoplasms. These things kill more children than firearms in the US, but if I posted a thread about it, you'd all probably shrug and say "Hm. What shame." I don't think many of you particularly care about those problems either (at least not to this extent), even though it's little children dying.

I think many of you are just being emotional because you're angry about gun control.

Keep the jokes and politics out of this thread, we have 17 dead 5 and 6 year olds for fuck sakes.

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.

Assuming you're not talking about me, because no sane person could think the Walter Sobchak character in the Big Lebowski glorifies guns.

I won't call you a reactionary. Your pattern is more to make provocative statements then backpedal when people take you to task for them.

Accidents and cancers may be reducible but are unavoidable. The number of unavoidable gun deaths in the US is zero. For people of any age.

You only hear stories when bad people do bad things with guns. How many people died in car wrecks today? If you want to ban guns because they kill people you need to ban everything that kills people.

[BeerAndPoker]

This shit disgusts me. Two people or more as a team can really do a ton of damage not many schools can be prepared for that shit especially some school in Connecticut that never expects this will happen in their community.

It's a sad day when your kids aren't safe at elementary school.

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.

Repeal of the second amendment, which will never happen because Americans are barbarians.

Really?

An automobile ACCIDENT and a systematic attack on a elementary school are completely different. Yes kids die everyday, but they rarely die in a group, all at the same time.

The clown's currently on twitter telling everyone its his birthday while trying to pimp his work out for $$. They haven't even started putting 20 little kids in body bags yet.


He couldn't give 2 fucks.

Completely illogical. Even water CAN kill people. Guns are DESIGNED and INTENDED to kill people.

I'm glad you brought that up. Let's talk about preventable deaths. Here's a chart of the leading causes in the US:



I rarely see people mourn the heart disease/obesity epidemic in the United States. In fact, many of you outside the country just laugh about it. These causes of death don't elicit the sort of grief and sensitivity that I'm seeing here. Maybe because most of them aren't hot button political issues.

Jesus H. Don't you recognize the difference between accidents and acts of nature compared to intentional acts of violence? Violence made severe due to the availability of weapons produced for nothing more than mass destruction.

And this my friends is the product of somebody who's grew up in mummy's basement.


Unbelievable.

What a dick.

You dumbfuck, all those things like smoking and overeating are things you do to yourself. Being massacred at random is something someone else does to you.

You really should be thankful you were born in a country where people still respect human life.

BTW anyone else notice the site loading slowly?

None of these have been released to the public yet, but here are my own preliminary findings regarding pictures of shooter Ryan Lanza.

It's still sad. It's still a major problem of people needlessly dying. Many of these deaths are not self-inflicted, such as victims of drunk drivers.

If you want to prove me wrong, cut it out with the personal attacks and political talking points. Mourn the death of the children. Don't turn this tragedy into an episode of Crossfire.

[John Stamos]

I will say that I hope I never grow numb to something like this happening.

Site is running fine for me, but please let me know if you're experiencing mass slowdowns.
