It is. I hate to resort to this, but the Mollie case, it was blame the attitude, not the tools/illegal immigrant. Now it's blame the tools in this shooting? How about blame the attitude? That's what drove this nut to kill.

Edit: NOTE: I do blame the attitude in the Mollie case, just to be clear.

But without the tool, you can't do much, no matter what the attitude is.

He still would have found a way to hurt/kill/etc.

I dunno if he was clinically unstable, but there's a checkmark that needs to be improved upon re: gun laws.

Stop with the narrative that changes to one's desires. Be consistent. That's the point of my previous post.

And round and round and round...

Very sad that this kid snapped and resorted to shooting up the place because he lost.

The Madden games are well known to have faults and glitches that are out of the players hands. I'd be ****ed at EA more than my opponent.

Play to the glitches. If they're available for one player, they're available for all.

You can still acquire a gun if you're determined enough. Legally or otherwise. It still boils down to your attitude, and thinking that shooting something solves anything.

Hang on, this is logical. Can't have this. :rolleyes::p

The best response they have is "thought and prayers, and it's too early to talk about doing something"

IMHO, the gun people here seem to be really getting used to see their favorite toy constantly being used to kill people in cold blood. Talk about an attitude issue.

But the results might have been less fatal. It's a lot harder and takes more time to beat someone to death.

You're the big proponent of bringing back the fists.

Was this a political shooting?


Didn't think so.

Just give me my grenades and my tank ammunition. It's my right to have them.

LOL, is that the best you can do?

It's either that, or "gotta go after mental health" BS.

When can we do anything to actually reduce the harm of dangerous people? Yes, a knife may have injured or killed a person, but it's unlikely that it would have been 2 dead and however many shot.

So, go ahead, have you fun, and you can go to sleep at night being reminded that YOU having FUN (just fun) allows people to kill and injure multiple people at a time, very quickly. Victims and their families have you and your ilk in their thoughts and prayers.
