It's legit tiring to immediately see people attempt to find any threads that tie a shooter to the opposing political party. Before victims have even been identified people are already asking "but who did the shooter vote for".

Our society is so fucked, identity politics and failure of the justice system means these will continue cause nobody who can actually change things is willing to do so.

Some people shouldn’t be allowed to tell others what to do but here we are.
Really weird response. I think it's fair to say this wacko should not have been allowed to reproduce. Yeah yeah I know, "but muh freedoms!"but come on man....I think it's not controversial to say drug addicted sex deviants probably shouldn't be allowed to produce offspring.

It's really strange, that I haven't seen anything about victims yet...pretty fucked up if you ask me...

Well it was sort of same in Uvalde, you had to search for it, to know anything about them.
Umm. What news orgs are you watching? I’ve seen profiles on most of the victims and the heroes that curb-stomped this piece of shit.

Yes, most of the posters in this thread do have an "agenda."

We don't like meth or mass shootings.

How terrible.
I'm just having fun watching you two take my original comment way out of context and make all these random ass comments.

Nowhere in my original post did I point any fingers yet you two keep making these arguments for something I never said.
 

TGO

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
As someone from the UK which is unbiased when it comes to US politics I do find it odd all those "Trump & MAGA" related stuff has started up again.
A bit convenient actually.

Then what are you complaining about? We should all be horrified by this tragedy.

Your reading comprehension is astonishing. This back and forth is dumb, read my op and maybe rethink all your arguments cause they make absolutely no sense. Regardless have a good day cause it's my off day and I'm not gonna spend it arguing with someone who responds like a Twitter bot.

yeah they beat him up.

dumb fucker shouldn't have access to weapons after his standoff with the police where he was threatening to blow his mom up


This is what I don't understand, how the fuck did he get out of jail after this shit? It makes no sense at all.

A guy who's into porn, meth, has shitty attitudes about gay life styles. Guy talks like a crazed out druggie. And supports his son to use violence.

Amazingly, people like this are allowed to have kids. No wonder their kids go crazy too.
A sad situation. The lack of a strong community tends to allowed for awful parents to raise broken people.

The news can't instill FEAR into their audience if they focus too much on honoring the dead.
The number 1 reason (i believe) people pay attention to news, is to make them FEEL concern over things that don't normally involve them.

It's drama fever.

Yup.

Best way to avoid depressing or dumb news. Skip the news, except for more objective things like sports, business or weather reports which is mostly just numbers. The second someone gets into the nightly recap of crime, political views, stupidity and editorials where a writer thinks his opinion is the best view on Earth, that's where the issues start.

If it wasnt for GAF's OT tab and the Gaming tab for global and gaming news and tweets, I'd get hardly any local and global news. My coworkers even laugh when I ask them about local topics and they know the answer because they watch the news and I dont.

On TV, I focus on sports and comedy reruns and lately binge sessions of Shark Tank (excellent show for anyone who has never watched it). I'll check key news sometimes when I check for sports, business and weather when the page has other topics, but most of time I dont give a shit.

The world is connected 24/7, which means any news site can now churn out fearmongering content 24/7. Before it was just newspapers and TV news. Not everyone subbed to a newspaper back in the day and not everyone caught nightly news. So there could be days nobody really knew anything. But now it's different.

Due to this fear and constant barrage of crime and hate, I bet most people surveyed would say crime is at an all time high. But it's not. Crime rates were worse in the 70s and 80s and I think even 90s. Crime had steadily decreased for decades and leveled off the past 20 years (I dont know the exact trend but it's pretty close to this). But so many people now go ape shit in fear and buying guns as if the boogeyman is going to barge through the door.
