This is straight up bone chilling and fuking insane. Thoughts and prayers go out to these KIDS families. 27 and 24 years old. Just mind blowing.
the video they posted is mildly disturbing. You hear a person come up start shooting and you hear a woman screaming.. Its insane.
inb4 dan would come in here and say "guns don't kill people. people kill people."
don't get me wrong, we're so far from any sort of "gun bans" 88 guns per 100 people in merika.... But something has to change. I dont know what. I dont know how. And a lot of people will be un-happy. But cold blooded murder like this is just beyond frustrating to hear in the news day after day.
im with ya.
personally, I love guns. big part of american history and life. but I DONT love that everybody has one or MANY, SANS any sort of training or psychological evaluation lol, and that they can get one so easily. there doesn't need to be so many...those excess guns are what get into the wrong hands. I have mine. And I am ready for the fall of society.
the people yelling "dont take muh guns" they scare me. nobody is trying to. were just saying, if you have 500 of them, you dont need to buy another 500. lol
that particular part of the constitution was written when guns were how you fed and protected yourself and your family, when living on the frontier. It no longer applies to the broader society. It certainly doesn't mean everyone should have a fukin AR.
guns DONT kill people. people do. but if there werent 50 bajillion guns circulating, those particular folks would have more trouble getting them. Sadly, its too late. Cant even talk about it reasonably, or they turn into that lord of the rings guy, backed in to a corner saying "my precious" they've invented their own persecution, and each side will be forced to react to steadily rising degrees, And it will only get worse from here. Also, once I see the owning of guns being linked to either being more american than someone, OR, even worse, this is what GERD wants... you completely lose me.
just be quiet, own your guns, have fun. be civil. the discourse in this country is staggering. America, (politically)in a single statement: "I am right, you are stupid and should have no say, get out mexicans, f**K the gays, and poor people too, and its more important to be rich than responsible, you can do no wrong if you love jeebus and say youre sorry" oh also..... "its the cops' fault when you're an asshole and get beatdown" <---- that is driving me nuts. I miss the days of trying to hide from the police, not confront them with a cellphone and talk shit.
that video chilled me, and now im grumpy.
thanks krandolf.
have a nice day.
