They were good for the 1.5 million actual crimes they did stop.....
Fuck you and that happy horseshit.
All them crimes stopped and no one ever fires their gun. But let a real shooter on the streets and all of a sudden NO ONE has a gun. Fuck you.
TV shows and movies glorify violence and revenge. Murderers are considered "cool". News and fiction about violent crime are among the most numerous things on TV. It has nothing to do with allowing gays to marry.I'd boil it down to a decaying culture, and I'd argue that most of the significant problems we face are attributable to it.America is a very sick angry nation these days. It may be the wealthiest nation, but it's also one of the most angry violent nations on earth. I think it's the drugs, and i mean the prescribed ones. I think it's the greed. Americans are taught at a very young age that they must consume. They must purchase and accumulate more & more at all cost. They become 'I MUST BUY' consumer zombies. The greed consumes them. They become disillusioned when they realize they're never gonna have enough and their flat-broke. And that drives them mad. Many become bitter, angry, and violent. They lash out.
I think it's the violent greedy oppressive Government they're subservient to. The violence and greed trickles down to the People. The slaves are merely emulating their master's behavior. For such a wealthy nation, the People seem so incredibly angry and unhappy. Much of the rest of the world doesn't understand it. I truly believe it begins in childhood for Americans. They're indoctrinated on greed and violence right from the start. It's that unending quest for the almighty dollar that drives many completely mad.
This is just how i feel anyway. But hey, i could be completely off the mark. What do i know? Stay safe and have a good one.

No one who's insane enough to go around shooting people did it because they saw murders on TV. Grow up
360+ million guns in the country, if guns kill? Everyone dead? Why is that?Yes....and the other 356,999,999 million guns in private hands were not used in this shooting....
356 million guns in this country. And not a fucking one was used to stop this shooting.
So just what good where they?
But, still they live in mass. DumbassIf each of those guns were used on an American, the U.S. wouldn't be a country anymore.Buy more guns and ammo
Police say the suspect was arrested at about 12:40 a.m. at Ransom and Porter streets in Kalamazoo. According to Michigan State Police, the suspect is a 45-year-old white man from Kalamazoo. Police said weapons were found in his vehicle.
Just another "heavily armed white man shooting"
Yes....and the other 356,999,999 million guns in private hands were not used in this shooting....
Bingo.People become violent for reasons. The culture feeds them many reasons to become violent, many, many sources of inspiration in the entertainment industry.I'd boil it down to a decaying culture, and I'd argue that most of the significant problems we face are attributable to it.America is a very sick angry nation these days.

I don't agree. I don't think people going loco is because of decaying culture, they are sick. It's society's reaction to that that's wrong
What a society chooses to entertain itself with is a reflection of its culture.
.
I wonder why Buckie didn't start this thread. He's usually Johnnie-on-the-spot.
All of the gun nuts do the shootings. They're all right wing morons.Silly boy, most of these shooting are whacked progressives, a product of socialism...No different than Rustic claiming it was a socialist. But we all know the odds are, it was a right winger.So your excuse for all these right wing nut jobs killing people, is because they hate Socialism?Socialism is mental disease, the more socialist the country gets the more likely these things are...
Is that the reason this thread is in the political section? These were political shootings?
Where did you read he was a right wing nut job? You didn't, you just spew whatever thought or talking point enters your mind.
Lol
I don't think it's exactly news that kids become desensitized to violence by playing violent video games.
It's not news that we've gone from Lucy & Ricky sleeping in separate beds to people literally shitting on television for our entertainment.
It's not news that we now entertain ourselves with music & movies that condone violence & death & destruction & hatred.
It's not news that we make excuses for people who commit crimes.
It's not news that those who work hard, sacrifice and become successful are now looked at with suspicion and doubt and worse.
Our society is okay with the above. THAT is how culture is playing into this.
Anyone who doesn't see a decay in this culture and how it is manifesting simply isn't paying attention. Or perhaps they're enjoying it.
.
The only answer to these killings us to discover why they happen. Why is there so much violence? Do we place so little value on human life? Is there too much violence in our entertainment? Is it parenting? Entitlement? Mental illness? Drugs? A desire for fame even if it is infamy?
Until we discover the reason for these killings, they will continue to happen and taking guns out of the hands of innocent people won't fix anything.
All the above will suffice for reasons people go off and start killing.
However what gun nutters and gun haters alike just cant get a handle on is that these types of shootings and even worse ARE THE FUCKING PRICE TO BE PAID FOR VIRTUALLY UNLIMITED ACCESS TO GUNS.
We have virtually unlimited rights in our COtUS to have guns. Of course there will be mass shootings. And individual shootings. And suicide. And infantcide. And all the other ways people are dying by gun.
Accept the inevitable and move on. And understand that numbers work in your favor.
With 300 million plus Americans the chance that you will be randomly shot is very slim.
On the kids shooting, domestic violence with guns and suicide, the gun owner has a choice to make as to how easy or hard access to their guns will be.
You're like bandaid on a broken arm, you like to look like you're doing something but, in reality your so called ideas make things much worst...Which is bigger....356,991,876 million guns not used to commit murder
All them fucking guns and not a one to stop this mass killing. So again, what fucking good where they?
And so you dont like having to acknowledge the death and carnage that unrestricted access to guns bring about. Why would that be?
You dont want to own up to what happens with the objects you worship?
Pussy. Own up to it. It wont change any-thing by being honest enough to admit what happens is what happens.
Constitutionally guarranteed.
As much as folks don't want to admit it, a society without religion is a society in decay, the results we see everyday proves it to me.
What if this shooter heard voices in his head and thought God was speaking to him to go out and shoot these people.
Lets face reality. When you have 300+ millions of people, you are going to have s bunch of crazies. Its just math.
And when you have millions of guns with easy gun availability, then sooner or later, the crazy person will get a gun and start shooting people.
thats just the way we are.
It would be a lot easier if we all just accepted this sick little fact and got on with protecting ourselves in the best way we know how.
Some will want to carry guns, Some will not. But the fact is, when the crazy person surprises you by shooting first, your chance of surviving are the same; gun or no gun.
Maybe you are right, it is just part of society that must be accepted. Unfortunately it is not a part of society shared by every developed countries.
I am not sure I am willing to just accept senseless violence. But then again I am not sure what to do about it either. I can't make people get religion.
By God, we just need more guns out there on the street, Yessirreeeeeee Bob.
And the 1.5 million Americans who used guns to save their own lives and the lives of their families from violent criminal attack...according to bill clinton would agree to this point.....1.5 million Americans needed guns to stop a violent criminal attack....
Then throw in the number of attacks in legally created gun free zones.....and you see how dumb your post is.
Yours?By God, we just need more guns out there on the street, Yessirreeeeeee Bob.

Here we go again.
Prayers for the victims, and for their families.
We need to find a way to reduce these shootings, that works. Not just one that sounds like it'll work to people who aren't paying much attention.

Michigan police say 6 dead in random shootings, suspect arrested
Published February 21, 2016
FoxNews.com
At least six people were killed and two others were injured in a series of what seem to be random shootings Saturday night, Michigan authorities said.
Kalamazoo County Undersheriff Paul Matyas told Fox 17 Online that a man was detained in downtown Kalamazoo. He said the man didn’t resist when law enforcement officers approached him. The man hasn’t been identified. “The threat to the public is over. We now have our suspect,” Matyas added.
Michigan State Police Lt. Dale Hinz told WMMT-TV the man is a 45-year-old white male and said the shootings at three locations were “incomprehensible.”
Matyas told Fox 17 Online that people were killed at a Cracker Barrel restaurant in Texas Township, while two others were killed at Seelye Kia. All of the shootings were in parking lots. “These are random murders,” he said.
The two injured victims are in critical condition. Hinz said that one of the victims was a 9-year-old girl. She was shot in the Cracker Barrel parking lot. Police believe the shootings are related to an earlier drive-by shooting at Meadows Townhomes, which left one woman injured.
the liberals are high fiving this one. A guy goes around shooting people and nails six with no one shooting back.
Congrats, libs, the body count is growing. Now Obama can cry on TV again to take more guns away from law abiding citizens. Maybe next time you can get the carnage up to eight or even ten.
Kalamazoo being my home town (hence "kaz"), I just wanted to say fuck you all who helped this guy have a safe landscape to shoot my fellow home towners
