(May 24 2023) - Another Sandy Hook just happened

[DJCandle]

A whole damn riot happened on Capitol Hill where ALL the senators where at.

Folk need to realize that the SYSTEM is bigger than the collective individuals.

I usually cover most events in and around the city pertaining to politics and law. I was on the Hill that day and I remember telling the wife that, “this feels under protected.“ The lack of security, knowing full well what goes on in this city day and day out, was striking to me and we left maybe minutes before that whole insurrection took hold.

To your point and the greater contextual point, you’re absolutely right. It can happen to the highest of the elites, and they won’t move so long as the money keeps flowing.

We like to think that, “oh, if it happens to one of their kids or them, then they’ll make a move” and I understand the sentiment completely, but history has shown us that even when it happens to them, the needle doesn’t move.

I live in Europe and it's unimaginable to anyone here why someone would shoot children for no absolute reason. The US is a shithole country.

I get what you are saying and I agree but I believe that Norway massacre was mostly teenagers so Europe is not immune

 

[slewdem100]

Not smart at all and she's not a politician. Bitch didn't say anything about mental illness. She said it's an evil problem what the fuck does that even mean? She literally said nothing.

I was being facetious...she didn't say a damn thing because who knows what the fuck evil is...even the standard mental illness diversion would have been a step up

Oh my bad facts. I missed the quotes lol.

The point is that Europe is immune. The point is they don't have something happening everyday and doing nothing about it.

 

[Non-StopJFK2TAB]

I m not willing to see kids killed. I m willing to have more guns available to help put down the monsters that want to kill kids.

That s the only way.

The monsters are far away from the carnage they want.

 

[Riggz]

I'm waiting for the part in the script where they blame video games.

 

[God-Of-War-420]

Every day it's a new reason to leave this shit hole

 

[DJCandle]

I get what you are saying and I agree but I believe that Norway massacre was mostly teenagers so Europe is not immune

I don’t believe anyone is immune, but there is something to be said in reducing the amount of occurrences entirely. Those numbers are indisputable, and that’s something we as Americans, cannot begin to understand.

The world looks at us as a joke and as well they should.

We praise conviction and admonish critical thinking at every juncture.

Facts
At this point I am ready to try tackling mental illness since gun control seems like a non-starter....anything would be better than this shit where nothing is fucking done...its an embarrassment and a disgrace

 

[Gods_Debris]

I get what you're saying in theory but this shit doesn't work in practice. The cops had guns at Parkland and they stayed their asses outside while the kids were shot up. Same shit yesterday. Those cops also had guns and couldnt stop him. Having a gun don't mean shit if you ain't gon squeeze off at another muthafucker with the same gun or bigger. And that's what constantly happens.

Man these hoe ass niggas talk that gun shit ain't never been run up on. The psychological aspect of an ambush changes the calculus completely. Unless you are ready for war every time you step out the door on some killagram shit please knock that bullshit off.

Sure. More jobs. Kill 2 birds with one gun. Freedom is having armed military & policeman at every public location. Going through metal detectors & active shooter drills is how you really feel free. This is what those racist founding fathers meant with the 2nd amendment. The right to be wanded into church. I really look forward to wearing full body armor to the beach in the summer.

Lol. Bars

I agree. It’s not the gun it’s the mind. The gun is the multiplier but not the root of the problem.

 

[cli-terminator]

I agree. It’s not the gun it’s the mind. The gun is the multiplier but not the root of the problem.

nice metaphor

 

[Politic Negro]

The only thing that hasn't happened is a current congressman losing a loved one to guns during their term.

 

[slewdem100]

I agree. It’s not the gun it’s the mind. The gun is the multiplier but not the root of the problem.

that's not what I am saying...I think easy access to guns is a part of the problem but every time something happens, the 2 parties play the gun control back and forth game and nothing gets done...I am saying fuck it, let's tackle mental illness then...in other words, do something, anything

Mental illness is a bigger part of the gun picture, which is why I earlier referred to a ban of the tools used by said individuals entirely:

Americans are for the most part are a wild eyed, conviction riddled, Facebook informed, angel believing, capitalist driven people who, even with an unlimited amount of training, still make bad decisions over and over and over again.

There’s simply no amount of training in the world that will regulate this, just as there’s no amount of training that will eliminate law enforcement from killing black people.

The problem is not the guns, absolutely. The problem is the owner of said gun who can no longer be helped.

However, when said person cannot be fixed, the next thing in line to go is the tool.

And I say this as a gun owner.

Believe it or not, mental illness is far more larger problem than the actual guns themselves. It’s much more easier and pragmatic to reduce the amount of firearms, or making them not so easily accessible, whatever the case may be, than to address mental illness across the board.

That’s a losing game all together.

You really believe they care about their own kids? They are soulless.

Take away their ability to make money under the table, then they will wake up.

Until then, if they can launder, make money off inside trades, get paid to pass legislation, they don't care.
Hell they will use their own kids death and make money off that too.

I agree...mental illness is a big problem...but the Repubs play a game where they say mental illness whenever the Dems say gun control....so fuck it, mental illness then...back them in a corner and let's see what happens...this gun control back and forth game has passed its expiration date (kinda like the $15 minimum wage they been fighting to get for years but I digress)

They gotta do something and the public has to demand it

And I agree with you.

They’re Conservatives my guy. You gotta understand their tactics before you get in the ring with them.

You say Gun Control, they say Mental Illness..

You say Pro Choice, they Pro Life..

You say More for all, they say Socialism..

The checks and balances don’t work with them because they’ll say whatever they need to in the moment simply to oppose you. They’re adult children, who are disturbingly insecure at the core, and are the most unmoved people plaguing this country.

The ONLY thing that gets them moving is money, and moreso fucking with money and even moreso, fucking with THIER money. Then and only then will you see that conviction that they preach but are so hesitant to use when it counts.

That’s their weak spot and that’s where you have to hit em. Cut off their funding and I promise you they will squirm, twist, bend, and break. The NRA for example, would be an amazing start.

I had to explain the DNA swabbing to an older relative, they did not take it well.

But maybe Americans need to see autopsy photos of dead children to help spur some change.

I hope you explained it correctly because it has nothing to do with identifying victims.

I'm waiting for the part in the script where they blame video games.

That came about 30 minutes ago on local sports radio.

This old cac called in talking about its all these violent video games... And you know there all made and come from China?!?

Agree.

Nutjobs are common everywhere.

The thing with America is this country allows its nutjobs to have full access to firepower that they should not have access to.

There are firearms in countries all over the world. But they are usually in possession of organized crime and they keep tight tabs on their equipment and don’t make them available to everyday people for profit. They also limit who in their organization have access to them unlike here in the US.

The main issue here in America is the culture and mindset of firearms being used in a way they are not designed for.
