Another school shooting in the USA

.

.

That's a hell of a toll.

Hehehe, apologies. I've got several web sites going at once.

From the Fairfax comments:

Horrific. The US invaded Iraq on the fiction of them having 'weapons of mass destruction' yet no-one seems to get that guns that can fire multiple rounds are WMDs and they're everywhere in the US.

And this::

The failed Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee blamed violence on the removal of God from schools.

Eh? What was skully writing?

He posted about cricket ... for a change

on the wrong thread

'If today's tragedy can't bring change, you have to wonder what can'.

True that.

But I do know that if you combine the populations of Great Britain, France, Germany, Japan, Switzerland, Sweden, Denmark, and Australia, you've got a population roughly the size of the United States. We had 32,000 gun deaths last year and they had 112. Do you think it's because Americans are more homicidal by nature? Or do you think it's because those guys have gun control laws?

A bit from column A and a bit from column B. Part of the reason the yanks dont have gun control laws is because its a more violent society.
Brad Pitt said a while ago about a particularly violent role that he found it easier than the idea of playing a racist because violence was a natural part of their society.

The whole is country is just totally ******.

violence was a natural part of european society till not too long ago. societies can change. you need the will

and gang-related violence is not absent in europe. its just that its much harder to kill 30 people with a kitchen knife than it is with an ak-47

the worrying task for america, even if they do go for gun control, is how to suck 300 million guns out of the system in a very, very short period of time. most of their citizens would not be comfortable with being without arms for extended periods when large numbers are still out there. thats assuming they would be comfortable being without arms in any situation

Sad f*cking day... sick... totally f*cking sick. America is doomed.

This is the crux of the issue. This is what all the brainless yokels choose to ignore.

Yep. Someone I know mentioned (pre-this) that a lot of the gun culture stems from the "Wild West" times when there was little law. Now the whole country is modernised the gun culture still hasn't really caught up.

Why?
Why would you kill a bunch of 5 year olds????

Why would you even THINK of that?

Why?
Why would you kill someone who doesn't believe in the same sky-fairy as you???

Why would you even THINK of that?

people are f*cked up. that's why

Because your sky fairy told you that those not believing in your sky fairy are sinners/infidels.

So I just heard on the news that the death toll would have been higher if the children were not trained for attacks like this.

FFS, WHAT ARE THEY TEACHING THEIR KIDS

Well its easier to teach the kids to run and hide than to take guns away from ******.

Religious 'differences' are not even as important as that ... they all believe in the same sky fairy; they're all just squabbling over the symbolism (or not) of a dropped sandal dropped by one of his prophets; or whether they're allowed to put a rubber on their cocks. Over such trivialities civilisations have gone to war, or been bathed in civil unrest for decades.

speak for yourselves abrahmic religions

we just believe in tendulkar. or something

Yeah, well, I believe that life is pure chance, and that the only certainty after death is decomposition.

psshh. just burn the bodies
