    That doesn’t make a murder/suicide a “mass shooting”. I’m sorry apporoaching this rationally has you so upset.

      Thanks, I love this reply. It’s only two sentences, but its so fantastically revealing.

      The first sentences calls your very own example a “murder/suicide”, a term which is unquestionably more misleading than “mass shooting”. The “murder” isn’t even plural, despite there being 4 of them.

      If you gathered up a million people, told half of them it was a murder/suicide and half of them it was a mass shooting, then asked them to guess the number of people killed, the latter would easily be closer to the truth.

      The second sentence just makes it clear you’re a fuckstain.

        And resorting to ad hominem attacks proves you have nothing to actually say on the topic. Congratulations, you lose.

          This isn’t high school debate class. Ad hominem means you’re not inherently wrong just because you’re a fuckwit. You can still be wrong and you can still be a fuckwit.

            The thing is, by resorting to childish attacks, you are showing everyone else reading this thread in the future you have no argument. I’m not after you, you’re a lost cause. I’m after them.

              They’re a lost cause too because before I called you a fuckwit, I pointed out that you were only interested in being misleading in your favor, not actually stopping people from being mislead.

              You took “ad hominem” as an easy out and as an added bonus, you were misleading about what ad hominem means.
