So how about that Connecticut Elementary School Shooting; Troll at Your Own Risk

[Lucavi]

^ Because mom had a shit ton of them and took him out to shoot with her, in-part, "to get him out of the house".

That's clearly the best solution for an anti-social child; gun range trips!! Yaaay!

Best-case scenario: he becomes a top-class military sniper.

Worst-case scenario: this.

[Seraph]

basically, two people comment on a shotgun shooting and accidentally killing others in the process (bullet spread/strength). Seraph claims that is a silly argument because electricity hurts. I was pointing out why that claim is retarded and a terrible example, since "spread" accidental death doesn't apply to electricity.

My point was telling someone that using deadly force might kill someone (that they didn't intend) was eyeroll worthy. Maybe there are people so stupid that need it explained to them though. The story above of the kid somehow taking a gun to school was a winner. :/

I understand your position. That doesn't change the fact that you tried to back it up with a terribad example.

If you understood, mission accomplished I guess. Doesn't stop people from getting nasty and intense whenever the topic comes up, which was sort of my point.

So has there been any explanation on this? Considering it aired on national television.

[hey]

What is the point of that video...?

[Eurell]

Probably that the father of a dead kid was laughing and smiling before he thought he was on camera. Then looked like he was trying to force out some tears when he walked up to the microphone.

[hey]

Well that's silly, he could have easily be distracted by some joke or something, and then when that stopped, he was forced to think again about his kid.

It's a coping mechanism for people, and kind of an annoying one to have as it can make you look like an asshole at times.

1) He's about to go on national TV, and has obviously been under a lot of duress. Some people laugh/smile when nervous, doesn't mean they're having a ball.

2) I can relate. I have trouble giving bad news, because I tend to "smirk" while doing it. I don't find the bad news amusing, it's just a weird tick some people have.

So I wouldn't look too much into the video...

Apparently students are talking about arming themselves in case the apocalypse happens while they are at school. I'm thinking about keeping my daughter at home and away from the stupids.

Or worse, the parents giving guns to kids...

I've tried watching CNN a few days after the tragedy and I just can't stomach how much CNN is trying to dissect and uncover the shooter's story.

On one hand it seems to only immortalize the shooter but regardless of human tragedy we have curiosity demanding we find out the why behind those heinous actions. Some would call it passing entertainment but if it does turn out this kid was mentally disturbed perhaps the information could be used to prevent this from happening in someone elses household.

In her attempt to exploit this tragedy for personal gain, she doesn't realize how much of a giant fucking hypocrite/douchebag this makes her (again).

Those who let themselves be terribly disappointed in political leaders as they ignore real problems, aided along with a complicit media bombarding us with irrelevant distractions in order to avoid facing the reality of a fallen culture, should know those distractions are to hide from a finger pointing to the main contributors to much of our problem. To stop distracting would result in acknowledging the political and media machine's starring roles in our failing society. So, as they too often tear down those who try to do good, while elevating and celebrating corrupt selfishness, they dumbly assume we don't know it is they who significantly contribute to our upside down world today. We've learned our lesson. Don't put your hope in Hollywood or Washington. Instead, build resolve and seek truth more aggressively than ever at such a time as this.

Since everyone seems to be ignoring this question, I guess I will post it here-has any of the weapons used at Sandy Hook been linked to the 100's of assault rifles Obamas Eric Holder sold to Mexican Drug Lords in operation fast & Furious now connected to the murder of civilians and 1 US Border agent? I also wonder if new gun control will close this government gun running loophole?

lol

[archibaldcrane]

not gonna lie; that's downright impressive spin
