    You can’t convince me this isn’t some strategy of tension shit. Like other mass shootings are obviously just pissed of crackers or incels who the police refuse to investigate despite being reported.

    But this. This guy was mentally ill but somehow still allowed to be trained with military weapons and train other soldiers. And he was released without being fired, reportedly. And this shooting lasted several hours, and now he’s missing?

      none of those circumstances are beyond America's baseline level of not giving a shit about people

      How is that not explicitly the exact situation in this case?

      You see it. These spree shooters are just part of domestic Gladio. Totally a complete coincidence this happened right when Palestinian protests are popping off. Yep, there's no deeper connection or broader context. It's all due to "guns" or "mental health."

        Come now, it happens all the time anyway, which I think could be used for making a more useful analysis than this conspiracy shit. Making an environment where this happens all the time means there will always be a new atrocity to distract from ongoing popular movements and make any left wing opposition to the dems look bad as though the dems are doing shit about this anyway.

        We're up to an average of 1-2 a day now, though; but formal statistics are explicitly legally prohibited from being gathered and compiled because pediatricians tried to turn it into a public health issue several decades ago.

        You would not fucking believe how many toddlers find their dad's "unloaded" pistol, please do not ask me how many times a year I am rewarded for my poor life and career choices by being reminded of this
