Republicans, the military party failing veterans once again.
can we not show Paul Joseph Watson's garbage tweets here? please.. i had almost managed to forget who the fuckhead is.
has to be one of the most annoying people on this planet, if you've ever watched even a few seconds of his videos.... ugh. intolerable wanker.

in all honesty as much as it sucks hearing that lame statement, fix your goddamn country first. Also he/she is legit just repeating what every government official will while standing idly by and doing nothing
the conspiracy nuts seem to be the ones doing these shootings, too. so fuck them and whatever they think about anything.
Um... We have a ton of white men in Norway. No shootings. Must be an american white male thing.
It helps their immigration agenda which makes no sense considering from the data of actual people doing crimes
Why did she capitalize "country and western". Is she trying to imply there's some sort of agenda to murder country music lovers? Lol what?
Its not a white person problem. Its an American problem.
There are white guys all over the world and yet America is the only developed country on earth that has this problem.
The gov't did what to who now? Parallel realities existing side by side would explain so much of what's been happening lately.
I'm curious since there is such an overlap between mass shooters and a history of domestic abuse.
I honestly can't think of a lot of undeveloped countries with this problem but you're not wrong to say this is an American issue.
This is so far the only thing I can find:

There are white males all over Scandinavia yet little to no mass shootings when it comes to mass shootings.
Implying that country music loving folks all love their big trucks and guns, so they of all people would have been armed if able.
Man this is both heartbreaking and infuriating. Fuck guns and fuck this country. Mass shootings should not be the fucking norm. It's absurd that it is.
Rest in peace to the victims and I hope those with life-threatening injuries pull through.

Forgot about Breivik? He did a good job being white and shooting 69 kids to death.
Not trying to be dismissive but this seems like there's an overlap between being a piece of garbage and a piece of shit. Which like, ok
Of course not. Im a Norwegian, even a member of the party he attacked.
Thing is, Breivik committed the only mass shooting in 2011 since the 2nd world war and there has been no mass shootings here since 2011.
To be fair there are very few countries where there are regular mass shootings. It's not a normal thing to happen. Only seems to happen where there are countries with no or little gun control.
That was also seven years ago. There have been dozens of murders involving 10+ people in the US since then.
She's legit sadder because cowboy bullshit means they must necessarily be her people.
Man some of the "white men" comments are a bit uncomfortable.
I know most of you are just making sarcastic statements, but I think if you want to have a discussion about this that includes white male shooters then let's try and make mentioning them meaningful rather than snarky, regardless of any intention to offend.
Want to talk about what demographic is carrying out the worst mass shootings, why that is, how to stop it? Let's do that.
Want to just make a sarcastic comment because of initial reports of a brown guy and other general "everyone else is the danger, not us" sentiments? Let's try not to do that.

Not sure if that's what you're trying to do, but we should be very careful when using these rates to make assumptions about a group. Looking at violence against children at home, for example, one could conclude that minorities in Norway are more violent towards children. In reality, we know that the problem here is poverty, most likely.
In most of the US, if not all, it is illegal for civilians to carry firearms into bars and night clubs. It's a common sense law because people do stupid shit when drinking, and guns shouldn't be involved. Ann Coulter has no common sense, so she posts this drivel.
This makes sense. Signal intelligence and language folks get those long enlistments, but I suspect he wasn't a sekret squirrel, but more likely a trigger-puller. Thanks for the context
Every time this happens I've brought this point up, only to be meet with a barrage of tone-policing - "it's not the right time", etc etc.
The thing is, guns aren't something new, they've been a part of our culture forever. But I'm almost 50, we hardly ever, ever had ma's shootings when I was young. And school shootings? Never. It's like the last 15 years it's increased, it's on tv every other day.
Norway is great, but I'm curious about what would happen if your demographics suddenly changed and had more people of color living in your country. I'm curious how the white people there would react.
Remember this off duty FBI guy, "good guy with a gun", dancing presumably while drunk at a bar, doing a backflip and dropping his gun then accidentally shooting another person.

I've become really numb to these mass shootings, but it was awful seeing this on the news. When I read the part about the smoke bombs, I had a feeling it was someone with military training. This definitely sounds like a planned attack.
RIP to the victims.

I'm not doubting you but where did you get 307 from
Nevermind I found it
Their ancestors were economic migrants. Self-loathing is a terrible disease.
OK that makes sense, the way that she framed it was very confusing but I'm sure that was intentional.
