I realize this is a divisive issue, but it’s clear that these horrific incidents are going to keep happening with shocking regularity. It seems we’ve all collectively shrugged our shoulders and accepted it as the reality going forward.

    I’m not going to dig through all of them (especially since that number includes gang violence, which is a lifestyle choice, and falls outside the scope of what most rational people would call “mass casualty events” or “active shooters” etc,) but yeah th Nashville shooter had one, the grocery store shooter had one (buffalo iirc,) columbine, parkland iirc, the list goes on. They plan them for a long time. Same with McVeigh, Kaczynski, the Nashville bombing guy, the guy who shot up the republican baseball game, these people don’t typically “just snap,” it has been brewing for months and they’ve been planning.

    The “just snapping” thing has historically been associated with family annhialators (as rare as they are) if any mass killers, usually just “single murderers” who kill the spouse, but even then if no gun is present they’ll “just snap” and kill their family in another way a la Chris Benoit. Guns don’t have to “make it easier” when you can drug people you’re more physically fit than anyway, tie em up, choke them with cords. If my ex wanted to kill me for instance all she’d have had to do is stab me in my sleep, seeing as we slept in the same room and all.

      Your ignorance and denialism is part of the problem. Whether you call what you have a mental health issue or not is up to you and your professional caretaker.

            Lol no but I don’t think mentally ill people are necessarily less then, I do think you are though due to your opinion on mentally ill people.

            Also, well technically yeah, ADHD like a motherfucker. At least I’m not a bad person like you are through my actions, however, I’m just a “bad person” to you because I hyperfixate on shit a lot. And no, I’m not ashamed of it, I’m just judging you.

            What’s next, wanna make fun of me for being black? Wow, you’re so cool!

                No u, you’re the one making fun of people for shit they can’t control. Pretend to conflate me calling you ableist, and questioning if your racism will show next, by all means, but it’s pretty clear what you are all about. You are a bad person, you’ve displayed both your racism and ableism for all to see.
