Thread O Mass Shootings

[Ke1t]

Brand new one currently ongoing in San Bernardino... at least 20-40 victims, and it appears the shooter/s set the apartments on fire where this is playing out.

It's all fun and games till someone says Eric Black could easily be replaced by another player...

EDIT: SWAT teams arriving on the scene... Time to get the popcorn and flick on FOX News.

According to FOX News;

 

- there may be between 1 and 3 shooters

- the shooter(s) may have escaped, or still be inside

- there could be a bomb in the building, or maybe not

- there could be 20 dead, but maybe not

 

Glad they've cleared that up then.

[daytripping]

Looks like they've escaped.

 

I'll have a tenner on it being Mossies.

Most domestic terrorist attacks/mass shootings are by right wing christian nutjobs. I'd stick a pony on that.

[Bluto10]

I've seen enough 24 and homeland to know that it's 99% certain to some sort of coloured fella

[chief_wiggum]

I'm thinking a couple spotty virgins with a grudge that have played too much Call of Duty.

[manboobs109]

Couldn't possibly be a Muslim, it's a peaceful religion.

Aye, fiver each way on your tip bro.

 

Do we know who was having the Christmas party yet?

[Redforever86]

I'll go for the 40/1 Marlyn Manson fan shot.

The American police appear clueless. just an observation.

They appear overweight also.

[Bluto10]

My money's on Escobar.

It'll be the donuts

[zander]

My bets disgruntled employee.

They just stopped free lunches for all employees.

[The Boofon]

False flag op according to Reekie Dock.

[BrianFaePerth]

America doesn't need IS when it's got home-grown mentalists going postal all the time.

[BrianFaePerth]

Uh-oh, the names of the shooters are of the middle eastern variety.

Watched Fox news last night, holy fuck, was some amount of scaremongering, we're lucky in this Country. When one newsdesk guy suggested some backwood town wasn't a typical high profile target for IS two "experts" jumped all over him saying they want to cause fear and will strike anywhere, doing it in some crap small town means all crap small towns will feel unsafe, along those lines.

 

It may well turn out to be that but I'd think it's a pretty safe bet that it's someone with a grudge or a disgruntled employee, even if they have arab names it doesn't make them IS, too many people seem to have every mossie down as a international terrorist.

The attack is the latest in a litany of mass shooting events in the United States.

This is the 342nd mass shooting in the US so far this year, according to Shootingtracker.com, a site that records all incidents with four or more victims (including the shooter). Together, those shootings left at least 447 individuals confirmed as dead and 1,292 injured.

On Friday three were killed and nine injured in an attack on a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Na Aliens made them do it

[StandFree1982]

If only those who were shot yesterday were carrying bigger guns than the people doing the shooting. That's what's wrong with the US, not enough people are carrying guns to prevent them from being shot from other people carrying guns.

 

In saying that, the UK is hypocritical when they bemoan the US for their gun laws and the premise above. We are doing EXACTLY the same thing with Trident. "Other countries have nuclear capabilities, therefore so should we to protect ourselves"

[Robbie Winters]

There was a quote on BBC this morning saying more Americans have killed Americans since WWII than others have killed Americans during the two world wars combined

Or something like that

[looksgoodinred]

meanwhile, down under..."As a result of the nation’s controversial and oppressive gun restrictions, no one has died as a result of a mass-shooting on Australian soil today, for the 7158th day in a row."

 

“In Australia. Our weirdos are forced to write stern letters,”

How long before mass shootings in the US aren't even news?

 

If enough people said that they wouldn't vote someone in who supported the current gun laws the NRAs power would surely weaken.

Guns are so engrained into the American psyche that I don't imagine the gun law changing any time soon. There would need to be a hugely radical fundamental change in the American way of life to make a dent.

 

For a country that is renowned for having very friendly people, Disney and a huge religious population they do love their weapons.

Not saying remove them,

 

Just make them harder to get - like a 2 year waiting list for example

 

and limit the type - no one out side a gun club or war zone needs an assault rifle.

Depending upon your definition of what constitutes a 'Mass Shooting' we're already at that stage.

 

For example, four people were just shot yesterday, the same day as the more media-friendly San Bernardino massacre, in Savannah, Georgia... One dead and Three wounded.

 

That brings this year's mass shootings to 353, and there haven't even been 353 days this year... so there's slightly over one mass shooting per day in the United States, most of which barely merit a mention in national news.

[daytripping]

Its already old news here, we're only interested in proper terrorist attacks that we can use as excuses to go to war, American shoot ups are old hat these days.
