Everything is political, if I was shot I would want action taken. :\
People died because of disgusting politics. Have respect for the ones who will die next.
"It is not the right time to talk about this right now"
IT IS NEVER THEN RIGHT TIME YADA YADA
Guys like him are croocked and rather take their pribilege and money while others DIE out there for no reason at all.
Fuck this attitude
Yeah. I live in Oregon and Sandy Hook was devastating. It was my "This is it. It has to be. Something is going to change" and nothing ever happened.
It's never going to stop. If it weren't for the gaming relation, I'd have seen this headline, sighed, and scrolled past it. I get that we aren't supposed to be desensitized to this. "Get angry!" and all that, but I just don't have it in me anymore.
If peace in Ireland can happen then we can change this.
Unlike most replies here, I interpreted this post as making fun of Trump, mostly because of that "sad" at the end.
Maybe I'm wrong, but if you did mean for this to be a joke you picked a really bad time.
Oh, sorry.
Thoughts and prayers.
Better?
But seriously, if we waited for a time without shootings to talk about shootings then we'd be waiting forever.
Im speechless. Hearing the gunshots in the video is terrifying.
My thoughts go to the victims and their families.
My thoughts go to the victims and their families.
I remember when these words were said during Sandy Hook as well
Not in the US, anyway.
We badly need to get our gun control laws fixed. This is just going to keep happening until then.
Is this real? I'm waiting for someone say this is a fake. I just CAN NOT BELIEVE this is real. REALLY!
Gunman still at large it appears. I think there was about 12 or so shots fired in that video. RIP to all. Sad day.
Doubtful, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if someone spun it this way.
Yes it fucking is. The gun nuts' favorite line of defense it's "it's currently not the time to talk gun control, the victims bodies' are not even cold".
Fuck everything. Just pretend it's in response to LAST mass shooting.
User Banned (1 week): false equivalence in a sensitive thread, history of infractions
The non avatar poster said shootings dont happen in the Western world.
His country, with strict gun laws, had one 3 months ago, labeled a terrorist attack.
But hey, keep piling on the US and how shootings dont occur anywhere else.
Again, ban all guns
Yes, this is the thread that needs to be derailed into thread about McCains politics.
Believe it or not, less people will die if gun controls were stricter in the US. That might have saved the lives of the people here.
A fucking mass murder is about as political of a situation as you can get.
I don't get it we caught the illegal immigrant that killed that lady, so why are people still getting killed?
Oh yeah, thoughts and prayers.
Oh yeah, thoughts and prayers.
He's even from f*cking Chicago which has easily a higher rate of gun violence than the entire nation of Belgium. And yes, Belgium is also quite densely populated and Brussels is a violent city by European standards.
You've got a problem America, face it!
I was talking about McCain not guns. Christ.
Im all for gun control. Just felt there was no point for that pointless snipe.
Yes it is, when this is fresh in everyone's mind is the right time to talk about it. There are shootings literally everyday and people dying everyday, if we followed your line of reasoning, we would never talk about gun violence or how money from the NRA has prevented any common sense gun laws.

What are you talking about? This is exactly the same defense republicans use to not talk about gun control.

You should read the conversation. The non avatar i responsed to specifically said the West. Is China in the West?
No, no it isnt.
You hijacked a thread to talk about McCain. Basically preaching to a choir who knows about all McCain did for what, really? A reminder that a dead politician with dubious links had an obvious dubious link?
100% abso-fucking-lutely it is . The NRA is why these children get killed . Lax gun laws because of the NRA's lobbying caused this
Rest in peace to the victims
The US need to get their shit together with their fucking gun laws.
Fuck everybody who values their gun more than people lifes.
Fuck everybody who values their gun more than people lifes.
This is less than what happens on any given day in the US before 10 am
Terrible, really wish things like this didn't happen. People go to event, having some fun and a time of their lives, then some crazy person comes and shoot up the place. Can't even imagine what it's like to be in that predicament. Thoughts and prayers to the people who are injured and to the families of the victims who lost their lives.
They'll have more trouble doing it since it wasn't a Call of Duty tournament or some other shooty shooty bang bang game. It was a game about America's favorite sport! Not even FIFA so Fox News could pin it on filthy immigrants and their boring European sport "no one likes here anyway".
Of course its political. This whole thing happened because of an organization too big that strong arms others while paying those congressmen with loads of money.
But people just died. My first thought isn't to immediately wag my finger at others. I want to go help. I want to go mourn with those. Tomorrow I will have the ability to show the world just how evil the NRA and others are. Right now? My thoughts are to try and help out somehow.
This is why we have to wait to politicize it. If we knew it was an immigrant we should have started politicizing hours ago.
