Cool cool cool…
We definitely don’t have a gun problem…
Right on schedule I guess /s
Someone posted a tweet that said that republicans are quick to blame Tylenol for autism, but can’t do the same when its about gun violence and guns.
I blame fun violence on people being shit cunts. And the government letting those shit cunts have guns.
fun violence
I’m leaving that typo in lol
If America’s most volatile don’t have access to guns, then who will police the general public? Protect gun rights and our entitlement to mental health issues
Rookie numbers.
Okay, this looks bad, but… have you thought about gun makers? Their livelihood and family depends on selling guns. What will happen with little Timmy when Mr. Warmonger can’t bring bread to the table anymore?
Those people died so the little Timmy Warmongers of the world could live! Think of the children, people!
Sure, those headlines are rough, but let’s zoom in on the real tragedy: a tear running down the cheek of the CEO of Freedom Arms, Inc. His yachts might have to skip their annual polish! How will little Timmy tell his private school friends his dad can only afford a single pony this year? People, the economy is suffering! Think of the quarterly profits!
About one mass shooting every 20 hours and 24 minutes. And this is before the USA starts fighting itself in earnest.
seeing as that the last one was prolly the last mass shooting of 2025, every day that average will increase until its less than one a day
Why do you think that was the last one?
im kidding guy damn folks on lemmy really need the /s eh?
Yes please.
There are so many idiots here. It’s really hard to tell if someone is kidding or an right-wing / fascist / asshole / dumbfuck /whatever for real.
okie doke :)
hmm
i really remember not having to do that like maybe 3 or 4 years ago but maybe people just always felt I was hopelessly ignorant
“If you stop counting, the problem will go away”
USA at war with itself as usual
i think usually the mass shootings definition excludes a lot of these, and usually means a more indiscriminate mass shooting… like a kid shooting random kids at a school….
maybe the looser definition is more useful and we should have another term for the indiscriminate mass shootings….
actually charlie kirk was shot while making a “point” about that….
“oh well do you include gang violence?”.
…
as if gang violence isn’t also an issue with gun control….“gang violence” was just another of his racist dog whistle talking points.
“talking points” is a dumb way to end conversations… not everyone who considers different angles is an alt-right shill….
but i do think we need a different term for people who just snap and shoot random people vs people who shoot back at people
sure would be neat if communities had the sovereignty to decide whether or not to allow weapons
you know instead of the system we have with the giant slave empire that ruins everything for everyone with nonsense laws and militarized cops
More guns than the Taliban.
Let’s find out how many of them are left leaning…just for funsies. I have a solid 20, there are VERY few.
Quick quick someone post the onion article
Soooo much winning everywhere.
So much winning!
