Doink! Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Murder is still pretty *censored*ed up, its just hard to care when it happens so often. But it doesn't happen as often. Murder and violent crime have been going down consistently for decades. That's the thing. Murder is going down, so it is becoming less *censored*ed up. Worded like shit. Murder never becomes "less *censored*ed up". Certain people just become blind to it. Others see exactly what's happening, get angry about it, and try to push for common sense gun laws. If murder never becomes "less *censored*ed up, then it can't become "more". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango kid Posted August 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 So not a mass shooting but the guy walked with Neighborhood Market in Springfield Missouri wearing full tactical gear A and a rifle and over a hundred rounds of ammunition all he did was take video we'll talk to people that leave As shoppers were panicking and fleeing the store, Lucas said the man was taking video on his phone and making comments to people while pushing a shopping cart. Lucas said the suspect then walked out of the store, where an off-duty firefighter held the suspect at gunpoint until police arrived moments later. The suspect, a 20-year-old white man, was arrested, but Lucas said police are still working to determine his motives and whether he intended to shoot anyone. Lucas said the man had more than 100 rounds of ammo. His intent obviously was to cause chaos here, and he did that, Lucas said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M3J Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 This world is becoming more and more *censored*ed up, with people killing each other and supporting bombing other countries and whatnot. Jeez. Did the Dayton shooter have any political motivation for shooting people or was he just *censored*ed up in general? That's the thing. Murder is going down, so it is becoming less *censored*ed up. Mass shootings are going up, so still *censored*ed up, if not more *censored*ed up.

But you know if he was a white man, the off-duty firefighter would have shot him right off the bat, if not the cops as soon as they got there.

M3J Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 isn't mass shooting defined as shooting more than 3 people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bdon Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Technically yeah. But they really don't have a set definition. I've heard more than four and some say more than 3. But it's an umbrella term to pump up numbers to make it seem like an epidemic in itself. Most are gang and drug related. Only a very small percentage are the ones that make headlines and bring us here. Like school shootings and things of that sort. Then it's the same old tired argument of guns bad vs people bad and no one does anything to fix anything or pinpoint major concerns that lead to these things. They just think the easy magic pill is to get rid of guns instead of focusing on the fact that most of these kids are on or coming off psychiatric drugs or that there were always things that never got reported correctly and led them to getting their hands on a weapon. Once again proving that background checks can't work if procedures aren't followed and if you think they'll be followed by introducing more, I've got a bridge to sell you. You'll just be creating new criminals out of innocent people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M3J Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Rarely anyone is arguing to remove guns, they just want stricter gun laws where those who don't follow the proper procedure will get in trouble, and there's no loophole. You can't create criminals out of innocent people if they're not doing anything bad, and hopefully it won't get to that (I don't support banning guns). https://twitter.com/tictoc/status/1161820080063123456 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bdon Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 You're not understanding what I'm saying. If they create for an example, an AR ban, then alot of innocent people that already own them instantly become criminal. They'd give some time to turn it in and if you don't you are a criminal. That's not ok. You just created a criminal by passing an unjust law when that person didn't do anything wrong. He shouldn't be punished for it. Most won't turn their weapons in for that reason. You think that's ok? Because that's what they are pushing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
