I'm not an American, but this is depressing. What happened once, especially a violence like this, should never happen again. But this happened many times already!
I guess this is what Childish Gambino means in his song - that This is America, right now.
Indeed, but these shootings are caused by psychiatric drugs but the media does not want to talk about that do they?
Yes, they don't. Is the gov't even doing anything about this? This is out of control.
the politicians who run the government and the media that controls public opinion are both very attached to their share of the trillion dollars a year the drug companies bring in. It is not a small share. Especially compared to a tiddlywink industry like firearms. They don't advertise their products on the evening news. The government does require them to put a label on their products that says "may cause suicidal thoughts or actions", guns of course don't have such a label because they are not known to actually cause those things.
This is really, really bad and depressing, @funbobby51. 😥 When will they learn? I hope when they do, it's not yet too late to change the country for the better.
All this that you hear about guns is only because the Democrats have nothing to run on in November, the American people in general don't want more gun control but instead of changing their platform they want to use their media to change the American public so that they want their platform. We can tell its bullshit by putting it in perspective. Varicose veins and related conditions kill about 60,000 Americans annually, that's about 6 times as many as gun homicides. It's as many as all gun homicides, suicides and accidents plus all car accidents. Yet do a search on someplace like NPR, if you put in" guns" or "firearms" you will find they have literally thousands of articles about the, put in varicose veins and you will find they have zero articles about them.
I see. Now that's BS.
