Mass Shootings in America Thread

Another day, another mass shooting. Several people have noted, these are becoming more and more common now in 2017 and there's no reason to believe they're going to lesson any time soon as nothing gets done/changes, so might as well make an official thread. #maga

This time in N. California, four dead, several others injured, some children. Man went on shooting spree across seven different locations, no one really knows why at this point; "insanity" seems to be the motive being pushed.

Okay Rob, name the changes that would have stopped this.

I also just want to also say RIP to the victims, but I can already tell this thread won't be about them, not really.

None Surtur, 'America is the greatest country and can accomplish anything', except lowering gun related mass murders, that's the elusive unicorn.

This thread is about mass shootings that happen in America, read the title. But your 'thoughts and prayers' have been noted because you really care. Good thing about thoughts and prayers, it's an endless well and you're going to need it.

Surtur
Okay, I asked you what changes could stop this and you don't seem to have an answer. The 2nd amendment will not being going away, so what besides that could have stopped this?

Save me your thoughts and prayers bullshit, you guys never spout that shit when it's an Islamic terror attack. Where is the "f*ck this day of mourning!" shit from leftists for islamic terror? Where is the "f*ck your flowers" from leftists for Islamic terror?

I never meant to suggest he was an Islamic terrorist. My point was when it's a white guy doing the shooting thoughts and prayers are useless. I do not see this when there is an Islamic terror attack. I did not hear leftists spewing that over the NYC terror attack recently.

Please, prove me wrong. Show me that being spewed over the NYC terror attack. Or any Islamic terror attack. I am serious, I only recall hearing this shit over white males who shoot people. None of your gods are real, but be consistent.

That isn't going to stop mass shootings. Maybe we should get rid of ar-15's and 30-40-100 round magazines.

Maybe there isn't a law we can pass but we can stop selling tactical items for guns that aren't needed for home defense or hunting.

Maybe we can act like adults and stop pretending like we have a zombie invasion coming in a month and we don't need guns with 100 lego attachments to go plinking out in the woods.

When I have I said that thoughts and prayers are not useless if it's Islamic Terrorism? Seems you're trying to railroad and it's not going to fly.

But since your brought it up, there seems to be a clear pattern Trumper and Trumper types use when there's a mass shooting:

If the attacker is a Muslim = Condemn Islam and use the attack as proof that we need a Muslim majority country ban (doesn't matter if it's a homegrown Muslim)

If the attacker is Black = Condemn "Black culture" and talk about the need for more police, more prisons and harsher sentences on these "thugs"

In the attacker is Mexican = Condemn immigrants and talk about how we desperately need Trump's wall and tougher immigration laws

If the attacker is White = "Thoughts and prayers" + "He must have been crazy; nothing could have stopped this."

Now please stop derailing my thread, thanks in advance.

So now it's changed from "no" to "the mentally ill can't"?

But, the Las Vegas dude had CAMERAS and shit set up. He did all that, had all this shit. But he can't do this? Bullshit. I want you to type it out. Type out the Vegas shooter couldn't have. Because YOU brought up Vegas. Your narrative is falling apart, I suggest saving it quickly.

The point you've dodged now several times is that when it's a Muslim, Black or Mexican attacker there are solutions to "fix" the problem (ie ban, more cops/prisons, wall), but it's silence in the solution department when the attacker is White. So, why is this?

Let me put it another way, some dipshit white guy shoots up a place screaming "God is great!!!!!!" or "Jesus is great!" and nope, there will be no "he is mentally ill" as an excuse.

You don't have to answer, but you know I'm a pretty open-minded guy who listens to opinions without resorting to name-calling/retorting for the sake of retorting/deflection, and that you've helped me form an opinion on gun control before, so I want to know a bit more.

And keeping bump stocks legal makes them wayyyyy more accessible to even ppl who otherwise wouldn't have known they existed

I believe Surt was asserting that even if bump stocks were illegal he could have made them just like in the youtube video.

Looks like we have more then enough terror from US citizens that are male that we could put aside discussions about islamic terrorists for another thread...you know since they don't pew pew people like we do in Murika.

You're also intelligent, so you should already kinda know the answer, which I suspect you do.

Is there a white culture here? I don't think so. Is there a black culture here? Yes lol. These are unpleasant facts, but just the reality.

And thing is, don't leftists agree with me? Wasn't this why "white power" wasn't okay, but black power was?

Indeed. I flat out asked him if they could be homemade. He said no. A cursory internet search proved him wrong. Then he switched it to "the mentally ill cant" which is bullshit. Not all mental illness is the same. The Vegas shooter had all this shit set up, cameras, etc. He had the intellectual capacity to make a bumpstock if he needed to IMO. The video I posted is not complicated.

Point is..it's not culture. Not every culture is equal. If folk want to say there are white cultures here okay, you do not have the inherent violence, the inherent need to act tough, etc. that you do for black culture, just to give one example. Not that whites aren't violent, but it is not an ever present part of our "culture" in the way it is others. This is just fact. People who don't like it might as well whine 1+1=2.

But being raised up by an awful awful religion that needs to be removed from existence? Growing up in a culture where there is pressure to be tough, to be a thug, to treat disrespect with violence? Different, cuz reasons and rainbows.

But Scrib, here is the difference. People of all races do the "white culture" thing here. You have blacks, you have mexicans, etc. in the suburbs. They aren't insulted for trying to appropriate white culture, etc.

A white dude begins acting "black" he is called a wigger, etc.

Our culture is open to any ethnicity really. I had black friends that embraced me, but they knew I could never be a part of their culture.

I never said I don't feel there isn't anything that can be done lol. That is the narrative your pals put forth.

The responses are different for whites because in a way we have no culture. We have a culture that is open to others more than any other culture here and you won't hear us whining about you appropriating us. At least nowhere near to the extent of others. You won't ever see a leftist outraged over it.

I think you can agree different solutions might be needed if something is cultural vs being due to mental illness or religious zealotry.

Your stances/actions imply it. But fair enough, what is the "fix" then for White attackers iyo?

Since we have bans for Muslims, harsher sentences/more prisons for Black and walls and tougher immigration laws for Mexican attackers

Since we have bans for Muslims, harsher sentences/more prisons for Black and walls and tougher immigration laws for Mexican attackers

We have more blacks in prison because they commit more crime. Thus there is a higher police presence. It's why blacks are in jail more for drugs.

Okay: to the rest of you all, what are your specific stances on what can be done about mass shootings that are primarily committed by white middle-aged men?

I was thinking more like, support for people with mental health. If someone with mental health issues has owned guns in the past, maybe keep tabs on them every now and then? I don't know, I'm just brainstorming here. There must be some way to stop like 60 people getting gunned down dead every month or so.

But again Scrib, if you're trying to avoid partisan shit put some thought into what you say. For example, look at the percentage of black men who commit mass shootings(15%) and compare that to the overall percentage of blacks in America vs whites.

13% of the population. Most committed by black men, so 6% really.

People love to talk about numbers here without putting it into context with population.

So let's go back to the white guys, since you already covered the black guys. Most of the major shootings that happen are white guys, too. Las Vegas, most school shootings, Sandy Hook. Not to say other cultures don't do it too, in fact the US is very multicultural in its psychotic murderers, so props for that.

Statistics show the highest rates of violence come from those in poverty and those without education. It just so happens that black people tend to be in more poverty and have less education.

My thing is they will harp on whites for mass shootings, but not harp on blacks for committing the majority of shootings overall.

But anyways, I have no problem with increasing mental health care or whatever. IF there are not already laws about people who already owned guns for a while and then were said to be mentally ill...we do need some, though I'd be surprised if there were not.

Well, fair enough, but you seem to have put in more thought about how to stop violence committed by everyone non-white a lot more than you have those who are white. And what about 'black on black' crime? There may be high numbers for shootings committed by black people but it is mostly other black people on the end of those shootings, as opposed to the indiscriminate rampages of the Mad White Man.

For 100s of years black people in America were enslaved and denied education, it's not surprising that they're still suffering the residual effects of that today. Educate poor and bring them out of the dirt, that's how you solve inner city woes. Not with martial law or abusive cops.

I put into more thought because I think it needs it. People tend to not ignore white crime. We tend to not riot when whites are killed by cops, there is no code among whites that you don't snitch on a piece of shit, either.

If I thought people were ignoring white folk killing other folk I'd be focused on it. But I see my city torn apart by violence, nobody cares because it's an unpleasant subject.

When more (hopefully one day all) Americans have access to better education, I believe crime rates would drop, gang culture would be less pronounced, and actual integration would be witnessed.

It's not just poor blacks that get robbed of educational opportunities. So many public schools are dog shit here. You either need to be in one of the more pricey and safer parts of Chicago or you need to live in the suburbs.

The people in the trailer parks deal with the same shit, but manage to not have the same murder rate.

Firefly, this is disingenuous of you bro. Straight up. You know as well as I do we had a variety of people in the left leaning media talking about whites specifically after these shootings in Las Vegas. It wasn't "people in poverty". It was white males.

You personally might believe otherwise, but that doesn't change what we get fed by our MSM.

Not just education. We need more fathers in the household. Especially in the black communities. We know the stats on single mothers and how those kids are more likely to end up in jail, etc. And yep, unpleasant truth alert: it occurs far more in black communities. Not by a little bit,VASTLY more.

It might, but a father in the home would make it more likely the kid gets said education(and stays with it) that tells him "don't bang a chick without a condom, especially if you're like 15".

We can't afford to wait for the next generation to come and start being fathers at home. We need it now.

States with publicly funded sex-ed courses have significantly lower teen birth rates and have significantly lower abortion rates.

In school, ALL children should have access to education about safe sex practices. Not only the kids lucky enough to have responsible fathers.

I thought that was a "clerical error" and not an issue with gun laws being enforced? Pretty sure that was your consensus in that thread.

Did I say I had one or didn't have one? I just noted that to certain people of a certain persuasion, generally, we have clear and evident "fixes" when it's a Muslim, Black or Mexican attacker, but it's a cone of silence spell when the attacker is White when it comes to solutions.

That's just subversive and dishonest. You can be not mentally ill and have evil motivations for murder without it being driven by a political agenda.

The man, from what info we know thus far, did not have a political motive for what he did which by definition means it's not terrorism.

My question is why we don't see this kind of whining about prayers after an Islamic terror attack.

You're twisting the narrative again and being disingenuous. When there's an Islamic terrorist attack, people talk about changes and things get changed, it's not just "thoughts and prayers" most current is the travel ban and vetting Muslim Americans, or attempts there of.

And maybe if you've already forgotten, but after 9/11 a little something called "Homeland Security" was implemented. Might want to read up on that. It's more than just "thoughts and prayers", it's laws into action.

True, like what could possibly go wrong if everyone was going about with a full auto assault fire and 100round clips? It's well known that everyone who buys a gun is responsible and takes basic shooting/safety courses and they'd never accidentally hit an innocent bystander when taking down criminals. Might as well allow grenade launchers, nothing says "home and personal security" like that.
