Never say never, but it looks pretty real to me.
We really don't know what goes on in deep inner city schools, there's a lot of crazy.
Never say never, but it looks pretty real to me.
Fwiw:
IDK, Whack9 may know better than me but I think Redditors usually pick out the fake stuff pretty quickly.
DeSantis wants to make it so. From GCG's post in the long Thinker thread
Ah-ha!... “F*** you [Ted Cruz] you care about a fetus but you will let our children get slaughtered,” wrote Rep. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., an Iraq War veteran, who then referred to Cruz’s Mexican vacation last year when much of Texas was without power. “Just get your ass to Cancun. You are useless.”
To ensure no confusion about his position, 17 minutes after that message Gallego added, “Just to be clear f*** you [Ted Cruz] you f****** baby killer.”
The Stupefying Tally of American Gun Violence
... Each event evokes some atrocity from the past, the exact details of each shooting growing more indistinct by the year: The latest death toll of 21 at Robb Elementary School in Texas surpasses the shooting in Parkland, Florida, in 2018, when 17 people were killed. It falls short of the deadliest school shooting — when 26 people were killed in 2012 at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut.
These are the mathematics of American gun massacres.
All three school shootings — Newtown, Parkland and now Uvalde — have eclipsed Columbine in 1999, when such events still had the power to shock the nation.
The reasons for the violence are familiar and incontrovertible. The United States has many more guns than citizens, about 400 million firearms, according to a 2018 survey conducted by the nonpartisan Small Arms Survey, and 331 million people.
For more than a decade now, semi-automatic handguns, purchased for personal protection, outsell rifles, which have been typically used in hunting.
And the coronavirus pandemic stirred an even greater gun-buying craze. Annual domestic gun production increased from 3.9 million in 2000 to 11.3 million in 2020, according to a report released this month by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. A vast majority of those firearms stayed in the United States.
The toll of the violence, especially on children, has only grown. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that the rate of gun deaths of children 14 and younger rose by roughly 50% from the end of 2019 to the end of 2020.
Last year, more than 1,500 children and teenagers younger than 18 were killed in homicides and accidental shootings, compared with about 1,380 in 2020, according to the Gun Violence Archive, a database tracking gun deaths....
In the meantime states such as Texas have forged ahead with some of the least-restrictive gun laws in the United States, priding itself as a state with responsible gun owners — more than 1 million — even with its recent history of mass shootings.
Gov. Greg Abbott signed a wide-ranging law in 2021 that ended the requirement for Texans to obtain a license to carry handguns, allowing virtually anyone over the age of 21 to carry one. The landmark law made the state one of the largest to adopt a “constitutional carry” law that basically eliminates most restrictions on the ability to carry handguns.
Abbott described it as “the strongest Second Amendment legislation in Texas history.”
Mass shootings have become so common in the United States that only a small fraction rise to attract widespread attention beyond the communities directly affected. On the same weekend as the Buffalo killings, more than a dozen people were wounded by gunfire in downtown Milwaukee, near the arena where an NBA playoff game ended hours earlier, authorities said.
Two weeks earlier, the owner and two employees of the Broadway Inn Express motel in Biloxi, Mississippi, were fatally shot, and another person was also shot dead during a carjacking.
Less than four weeks before that, a barrage of gunfire in Sacramento, California, killed six people and wounded 12 in a shooting that authorities said involved at least five gunmen.
On Monday, the FBI released data showing a rapidly escalating pattern of public shootings in the United States.
The FBI identified 61 “active shooter” attacks in 2021 that killed 103 people and injured 130 others. That was the highest annual total since 2017, when 143 people were killed, and hundreds more were wounded, numbers inflated by the sniper attack on the Las Vegas Strip.
The 2021 total represented a 52% increase from the tally of such shootings in 2020, and a 97% increase from 2017, according to the FBI’s Active Shooter Incidents in the United States in 2021 report....

I watched all the republicans on the news this morning. It's never time to make sense.
That one's easy. China, along with the rest of the world, does not have mass school shootings, Little Marco. We should be like China.billy.pilgrim wrote: ↑Thu May 26, 2022 9:51 amI watched all the republicans on the news this morning. It's never time to make sense.
Rubio responded about the shooting, "well, what about china?"
Whaaat?
Wow, the sparse crowd looks very homogeneous.
Sadly Sarcasm isn't as easily grasped as an AR-15Tweet of the day right here.
The emphasis on the word AND did it for me…
“When people say Wayne LaPierre hasn’t done enough—-that’s not true…Wayne LaPierre gave thoughts AND prayers”I loved the part where he asked them to think.
In other words, "Fuck off, ammosexuals."Are AR-15’s weapons of war? Here’s what a former Fort Benning commander had to say
...
... “It is a very deadly weapon with the same basic functionality that our troops use to kill the enemy,” Eaton wrote.
Eaton broke down the differences between the M16, M4 and AR-15 in the thread of seven tweets. He said those opposed to assault weapon bans were playing with semantics, when they claimed any meaningful difference existed between military weapons and AR-15 rifles.
The tweets came on the heels of one of the country’s deadliest weeks in recent history. In the days since the Uvalde, Texas shooting, 20 mass shootings have claimed the lives of 17 people and injured 88 others, according to Gun Violence Archive. The researchers defined a mass shooting as any shooting with four or more victims shot, either injured or killed.

“There’s no reason why on the street today a citizen should be carrying loaded weapons,”
Within a few weeks" (of seeing black people with guns) "Oakland’s Don Mulford (R), with bipartisan support, introduced into the California Assembly a law (AB-1591) to ban people in California from carrying loaded weapons in public.
It was enthusiastically signed into law by Governor Reagan on July 28th, fewer than three months after Seale’s proclamation at the Capitol."
