Re: Only in America
Americans must cling to their god-given right to have regular mass shootings of the innocent. Otherwise, Marxists will rape your granny!

You get more victims per clip at Walmart prices. A real sportsman would hunt at Target.

Re: Only in America
Do a high percentage of mass-shootings take place in gun-free zones?
I mean, to hear some talk about it, there is an armed man behind every blade of grass...

Re: Only in America
Today’s mass shooting is the deadliest mass shooting since October 1, 2017, the day of the Las Vegas mass shooting at Mandalay Bay.
Imagine that. I guess it's only coincidental that you'd already be the perfect citizen in the ideal world you're selling.

I hear this was an open carry city and open carry store. No good guys with a gun present among the Walmart shoppers, apparently.

Re: Only in America
Who cares. Why are you even talking about it? There were at least 5 people shot in Houston just this weekend, and it's only Saturday.

Re: Only in America
During a speech to the National Rifle Association in May last year Donald Trump said “98 percent of mass public shootings in the United States since 1950 have taken place in gun-free zones.” This is of course a joke. 0% of mass shootings in the USA take place in gun-free zones because there aren't any.
Of course anybody can declare a home, a school, a city, a county or an entire state a gun-free zone, but a mere declaration does not make it so as long as it is unenforceable. It is pretty fucking useless for one state to have strict regulations concerning the private ownership of guns, outlaw the possession of semi-automatic rifles, or whatever, when the neighbouring state has no such restriction and there are no border controls. Similarly, you can legislate schools into becoming gun-free zones, but unless you install metal detectors at all entry points and provide armed and trained guards to enforce the no gun rule, you may as well not bother passing any legislation at all.

Re: Only in America
It's almost like making laws forbidding citizens carrying firearms is ridiculous in an environment where the lawless are so armed.
I'm going back to avoiding the fresh mass-shooting story until the media is done using the story to sell advertisements. There is something particularly gross about the speculation.
It probably bothers me in part because I just did it too.

You asked the question. "Do a high percentage of mass-shootings take place in gun-free zones?"
I provided the answer. "0% of mass shootings in the USA take place in gun-free zones because there aren't any."

Cunt's here to defend our gun laws! I love it. I'm going to relish the rise in Canadian shootings all that much more.
Maybe Canadian kids next time.

Re: Only in America
Fuck off. I gotta be polite about this and say the right things?
It's going to blow over in a few days; the laws won't change; and we can all get pissed off at the next one.
Do you think I really want Canadian kids to get shot? Huh? So why are you acting like you don't recognize that I'm simply pissed off at some stupid fuck, who should've been banned ages ago, coming in here to defend my country's jackassed gun laws in the wake of yet another mass shooting.
It's about as appropriate as some sick fuck hoping Canadian kids die.

Why would Canadian gun-crime rise? Are we importing a lot of Yankees or something?Sean Hayden wrote: ↑Sun Aug 04, 2019 4:32 amCunt's here to defend our gun laws! I love it. I'm going to relish the rise in Canadian shootings all that much more.

It's not the laws I'm defending. It's the right for people to be as well-armed as the criminals and government around them.
If you want to deny the existence of gun-free zones, like some kind of reality-denying play to avoid facts, that's ok, but most of the mass shootings tend to target people who are least able to defend themselves.
Almost all of the mass shootings I've heard of were stopped by a good guy with a gun. I don't know what the right answer is, but it sure seems wrong to just whine that guns shouldn't be allowed.
Reality isn't agreeable to gun-free fantasies.
