If this is true, then I think it’s safe to say that these shootings aren’t being taken seriously by our government on purpose. I don’t know what the purpose is, but it sure feels like it.

Some of those who work forces are the same that burn crosses.

The best thing about Rage songs is that they’re still relevant after 30 years.

The GOP benefits from these attacks in my view, especially when they’re in power. It makes it impossible for the news to cover the reprehensible things they do when mass murders happen every week.

If you’re terrified of being shot you won’t mind having armed police everywhere.

But that’s why I’m terrified of being shot

The only way to assuage your fear of being shot is to arm more people.

did you drop this? “/s”

To arm more police people, that is. Not ordinary people. Most people in the world have some degree of mental instability, and humans are too quick-tempered and unable to control their impulses. I do not want such people armed with guns at all.

I think you’ve got this reversed

ah, now we’re talking

Ok, so I’m not crazy.

Well that sounds alarming, but in Mexico they do have armed police everywhere and the citizens actually feel safer. I don’t wish for a dystopian “big brother” world either, but with so many mental people abusing their gun rights and killing others, that is looking more and more like a not so implausible possibility. Frankly, I’d rather have police armed and everywhere than most lay people running around, pulling a gun every time someone looks at them funny or gives the them wrong order at McDonalds.

That feels true when goverment’s response is simply, “give your hopes and prayers.” That all sounds good, but does nothing to solve the problem - the next mass shooting is just days away, and possibly will even make this halloween one of the deadliest in history.
