I want to make it clear that I am in no way, downplaying the alarming amount of shootings that occur in the US. Just that it was engrossing to see so many accounts of mass shootings in other countries, spanning decades.

    Way to discredit it because it’s a few years old. The numbers keep changing because they’re bullshit numbers designed for gullible people like you to think that there are mass shootings daily.

    I’m taking guns and mass shooting events. There are people dead from these.

    Then you might actually want to go check up on your sources…cause the guns violence archive, will label a mass shooting as 4 or more people injured after a firearm has been discharged. So if a gang member shoots are another person during a block party, misses and then cause people to run, the ensuing panic causes people to get hurt… that’s now a mass shooting to the GVA.

      I find it amusing that you want to talk about anything besides what this conversation is about and that’s guns and mass shootings.

      I keep trying to bring the conversation back to this and you keep trying to bring up your taking points.

      Why don’t you want to talk about guns and mass shootings?

        I have been, I’ve literally pointed out multiple times how to solve the issues within our society for not just gun violence but overall violence, but you’re to stuck on pointing out that it’s the guns. You’re the type that’ll try and put a bandaid on cancer and hope it works. News flash it doesn’t.

                Because suicides and gang violence is way to high, why are you so against making sure people are secure and don’t need to resort to living in poverty? Cause to you, it’s just a gun problem and if we magically get rid of the guns everything else is fine.

                  Reminder, we’re talking about America’s gun problem so discussing guns in that context makes perfect sense.

                  But you keep trying to shift the topic and score cheap gotchas instead of discussing the problem.

                    Nooo you don’t say I thought I was discussing China’s gun problem…I am discussing the problem, you’re just to ignorant to understand that trying to ban guns and add more laws isn’t going to fix the problem, because you want to give a bandaid to a cancer patient.
