Not really. Gang violence is objectively a far bigger problem than mass shootings, yet you're far more worried about the latter. Why?

Because mass shootings are relevant to the subject of this thread. Gang violence is not and so is little more than a deflection.

Really? According to the mods this specific instance and nothing else is relevant to the thread.

So how is this specific instance an incident of gang violence?

How is it reflective of all other mass shootings in America?

We aren't talking about mass shootings in general. We're talking about this one instance, are we not?

So evidently you're just trying to deflect as well. At least, according to your own logic.

[Scomagia]

So was the initial reporting about police engaging a third suspect erroneous or what? Is it just the two?

We're talking about how to stop this happening again. Responding to that with BUT GANG VIOLENCE is a deflection.

its just two in cases like this people report false things all the time over the radios and it comes in garbled or is misheard as everyone may have been talking at the same time which resulted in confusion about a third shooter.

Okay. I'm familiar with this kind of thing happening during initial reporting, so I'm not surprised.

Are the motives known?

Not sure at this time, as nothing motive wise has been released that I've seen.

Responding to a deflection with a deflection (by your own logic) isn't really much better lol

"So how can we stop this from happening again?

"Why are you talking about that when gang violence is a bigger problem?"

Appealing to worse problems is a pretty basic logical fallacy.

AKA Relative Privation. "What about the children starving in Africa?"

I'm not. I'm pointing out your hypocrisy. There's a difference.

One nation under the NRA.

The be American get shot meme is true.

Not really. The odds of getting shot in the US are still astronomically small.

All in all, the risk of misuse of a right does not justify removal or limitation on that right. Justice is served by punishing the perpetrator. No more is necessary.

Hmm it appears the shooters were trans rights activist. I think an increased police and military presence in those communities and organizations might be needed to provide community safety.

Really not funny, G&D, not funny at all.

I know my humor can be a bit much.

While it is tragic that someone died and others were wounded. It is interesting how these shooters do not fit the typical mold.

It also presents an opportunity to address the situation trans kids face in our schools does it not. These kids lashed out likely after years of abuse from their peers and neglect from teachers and faculty. So yes my initial reaction is humor that can border on misleared normally it is to generate attention where it needs to be because flood civil rights organizations with police would accomplish little.

Ah, relative privation.

Now I want to preface this by saying I don't think Gauth is really a racist per se, but society as a whole tends not to care about gang violence because despite the fact that it kills thousands per year those thousands are overwhelmingly poor minorities. It doesn't sell as well as white kids dying and thus people don't pick it up for their political games.

He's actually not really joking afaik, I've heard one of the shooters was MtF and revenge was a motive but I'm not sure how true that is.

The issue is that "according to plan" now seems to include children being murdered while they're at school. And that's fucked.

Local news has but I do not know which local sources are reasonable. However the Sheriff refuses to comment on the matter. Though initially the Sheriff misgendered the suspect.

Again? I heard on reddit one of the students gave their lives to try to stop the shooter.

Good on him then.

Was this the shooting with the gay kid?

It's a no-go topic, there's no point even addressing it at this point. And, as a result, it's just brushed off and we carry on. Sometimes there are things that happen, and just because they're sad doesn't mean something *must* be done about it. Shit happens, even in the best of circumstances.

That is exactly the attitude I am talking about. Where I am standing what you just said sounds incredibly, indescribably callous and inhuman. It's literally as if you had said (and I truly mean no personal offense by this): "Well sure, that Hitler chap is gassing some jews every now and than. But that sort of thing just happens back on the continent. No big deal."

I literally get emotionally triggered by the fact you can even think of posting what you did.

If the perpetually proposed solution to 'That Hitler chap' was "Let's drag all the blue eyed white folks into the street and beat them to death" you bet your ass I'd shrug it off.

...no one is proposing killing anyone to try and solve our country's gun crisis much less racial genocide jesus christ lmfao why on earth do you say terrible shit like this I really can't fathom it

No one's gassing Jews either, analogy is a thing.
