Off-Topic Mass killings

I guess we’re just going to completely ignore Timothy McVeigh now. Eric Rudolph? Lynchings? Church definitely stopped them right?

I said “recent” mass shooters.

But since you brought up Rudolph, here’s what he said:

“I would hate to break it to them that I really prefer Nietzsche to the Bible."

McVeigh? Really?

“In McVeigh's biography American Terrorist, released in 2002, he stated that he did not believe in a **** and that science is his religion” (Wikipedia).

Carry on.

McVeigh also said he believed in a god. Rudolph was against abortions, doesn’t sound very atheist to me.

Just stop dude. You’re trying to find a way to blame everything but the prevalence of guns in this country. Many countries are less religious than we are, but don’t have these issues.

Keep moving those goalposts though. 👍 Wasn’t aware there was a timeframe on when a massacre could occur.

Or, maybe you could work on getting your facts straight before posting. You’re the one who got worked up about the guy tweeting that people need to go to church, so don’t come at me about moving goalposts. You brought it up.

He made about 6 or 7 statements in the tweet, yet you whittle it down to just one. Do you disagree with the totality of his statement? I would say, a family does not need to go to church to know how to raise their kids and pay attention to them. You don't have to go to church to think that the officers should have "manned up" in this situation. You also don't need to go to church to be a good person (good to your neighbors). I agree with everything he said, even though I am not religious and don't go to church.

Same bull**** has been going on since Columbine. Blame everything but access to guns. It’s our **** poor mental healthcare system AND easy access to guns. Not video games, rock music, or a lack of Jesus

"More lethal weaponry" or firearms, is covered by the NFA. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but it's really hard for a civilian to legally obtain a full auto machine gun. You need ATF permission and it be registered with the ATF among other steps in the process. It can take a months to a year.

Obtaining a fully auto and modding to fully auto are two different things. We're a **** hair away from fully auto mods being as easy as downloading new 3d printer drivers. We're losing an arms race against ourselves. The police know it, the teachers know it, the kids know it.

Curious why its not happening in Kennesaw where there is no place on Earth with more access to guns. Literally a gun in every household. Most have multiple guns. Gun violence is very low there.

Give it time. How many mass shootings happened in Uvalde Tx? Eventually every city is going to have it happen.

His entire ******* tweet is retarded. You expect me to touch upon everything in it?

Yeah but access = more gun violence... Yet the most access ever = very little gun violence. It certainly fails the logic test. Now your saying there is a time element to it. Most people want an easy solution and that easy solution is always what they want it to be. Problem is this causes the real issue to get less attention.

If there were an easy solution, something would have changed since Sandy Hook. It hasn’t. Nothing has. Then when the issue cools down we never hear about the non gun related solutions. Mental health? Where or when have we improved the mental health of this country? It’s been 23 years since Columbine. Clock is ticking.

Dip****s like Robert J O’Neill would rather you blame everything else. Blue hair! Jesus! Friendly neighbors! Spanking your kids isn’t going to do Jack **** if they are mentally ill

It wont our leaders think pushing hate is a core element of their job. Polarization in this country is increasing more than ever. No one can say I don't think that's a good idea and here is why... its always if you think that then your pushing hate with blood on your hands. Every disagreement is only because the other person is immoral. That's incredibly stressful for kids. Some hear this crap and think its true. Now the rebel growing inside of you is fighting a moral war where killing is more justifiable. Its the same basic brainwashing that religious leaders pull in the middle east to convince people to strap bombs to their backs. We see it all the time. They seem to all have some weird manifesto and relish the hate they can generate. They also learn that killing can be fun via video games. They are literally one of the only outlets for many kids that are struggling with social issues. Then you add into the mix antidepressants and it can add to their numbing. Its a combination of all these things if you ask me. I have no problem with raising the gun age. In this world kids grow up much faster and probably to fast.
