    YEAH!

    WE DID IT AMERICA!

    U.S.A! U.S.A.! U.S.A!

    All these senseless murders every fucking year, and not one of them directed at the republicans that have ruined everything.

      It’s conservatives doing the shootings. Why does it seem that 95% of all mass shooters have a white supremacist manifesto?

        Because white supremacists’ arguments are easily dismantled to their core components of idiocy, racism and ignorance. They can’t convince anyone who isn’t a moron racist and they believe that those who don’t think like they do are trying to replace them so they resort to mass murder. Because they are racist morons.

        Media bias.

        Seriously, when talking about this people use different definitions of “mass shooting” depending on what fits their agenda.

        If we’re talking about the “nutter shoots up a public place” type shootings, then those caused about 1400 deaths between the middle of 1964 and the middle of 2021 based on numbers posted by WaPo.

        If you define it as “any shooting with more than three dead” then the numbers go way up but a huge chunk of that is gang violence and family annihilators (people who murder-suicide their family). These are different kinds of problems that need to be treated differently. And neither of those is going to respond much to gun control laws.

          Over 80% of mass shootings by white supremacists is not media focus. You have to skew your media consumption a lot to think violence comes from the left in the US. Beware of the media bias arguments, they are mostly used by biased media.

              More or less, it’s white supremacists related so it gives a bigger number making the article look more impressive (while still showing the propaganda we should fight against). I wanted to see if you were gonna try to check my claims but that’s not how your brain works. That’s why you end up thinking you’re on the right side of history by fighting people on the left. Go out there and challenge your beliefs.

                  Or don’t challenge them, your choice, at this point I’ve pretty much given up on your bunch, it makes me too sad and strangers on the Internet don’t deserve that effect on me.

      This feels fucked up to write, but incels shooting women/children/non-whites is probably better than having lefties/righties shooting each other. That’s how you actually get a civil war.

        Yeah.

        Lets let the perpetrators encouraging mass shootings continue to get off scott free while actively enraging their base with falsehoods.

        That’ll totally prevent a civil war.
