The shade of idiot Jack Thompson with brain worm here.
Switzerland has a comparable number of guns as we do
How is 120 per capita (USA) comparable to 26?
My bad…I ate the last goddamn neuron in this assholes head
My condolences on your imminent starvation
And what we blame for violent insurrections against the State? Just curious.
Tourist visits.
I blame the Bible for mass shootings, and I guarantee that there is more evidence to support my claim than his.
Ban the bible!
He’s says a lot of things but they’re all bullshit
Well at least they finally trained someone to be a good shot
The same shit for my whole fucking life. It’s amazing.
I wonder if classification has made the mass shooting numbers look different. In the 90s I remember everyone just blamed gangs. Shoot out in a parking lot, “they were probably in a gang.”. But soon as you list gun violence under gang related, it no longer falls under mass shooting according to the FBI and such. So even if 6 people get killed, that incident wouldn’t show up.
Today I rarely see people lumping acts into something like that.
Literally today when Kirk was gently relieved from the laborious task of breathing air meant for people better than him, when someone asked “how many mass shootings have there been in the last ten years”, his response was “excluding gang violence?”
This has already been disproven …repeatedly
I wonder if we can actually use this to our advantage. Microsoft paid $60billion for one of the most popular violent games, CoD. Can we force them to choose between political pressure or money?
Authoritarian demands always corrupt: nah.
So explain why violent crimes plummeted when PlayStation and GTA came out. It’s lead poisoning from leaded gasoline. We cut that out and it’s been trending down. If violent video games have any impact, it’s likely to reduce physical violence instead of increase it.
So along that line of logic, does all media with graphic violence cause murderous tendencies?
Damn boomer… We still doing this old trick in 2025.
Yes, it’s mostly a US-only issue but you know that other countries, Australia, looking at you, that love to be ban happy with any flimsy justification.
