This is the third mass shooting to occur within a month's time. Coincidence, or a sequence of covertly orchestrated machinations carried out for political interest?
Or maybe it's a massive conspiracy. Idiots.

Originally posted by squealpiggy View PostIn the year following Sandy Hook in the US there were 23 mass shootings with over a hundred total dead. That's one every two weeks, certainly plenty for the media to invent a trend via selective reporting. The reason the new media would do so is to make money. A deadly trend equals more viewers, more readers, greater advertising revenue.

It is a great stain on the social fabric of the USA. I just dont understand the US obsession with gun ownership. I mean I get the historic rationale for the 2nd Amendment and the notion of a 'citizens militia', but today, 250 odd years later, it is an outdated piece of legislation that needs addressing to save innocent lives.

I find it very ironic that a common argument for guns is their ability to be used in a protective capacity, but these shootings are hardly ever stopped by someone wielding a gun. In fact this one was stopped by someone who had pepper spray.
