Hope all our Texas Oppos are safe.
Happened at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs.

On Friday night, some jackass was shooting at cars on I-35 with some sort of rifle. He wounded three, including a 7y0 girl who is in critical condition. The last shooting took place at the exit for my neighborhood. And there was that guy who walked into a Walmart last week and killed three people. I’d just stay home, but assholes are killing people sitting in their living rooms, too.

They seem to be pretty ineffective regardless of the situation. Being Texas, you’d think there’d be a good guy with a gun around to prevent the whole thing.

I wish I had an answer for you. On the positive side, we will have forgotten all about it in a week or so. Does anybody talk about the Las Vegas shooting any more? And that was the worst mass shooting in our history. These things have become nothing more than a blip in the news cycle.

The outrage will once again be that someone did this, it should be about how people can so easily get the hardware to do this.

At this point we should all be sending apologies when our fellow citizens are gunned down going about their daily lives. Most of us don’t think critically enough for our thoughts to be worth a damn.

Their congregation was usually about 50-60 people in attendance. 24 injured, 27 dead. That sub-human
thing
must have stood in the doorway, the only exit, and hit everyone in the room.
This seems to happen on a regular basis, and EVERY TIME its the same response.
#Thoughts and prayers, #PrayforSutherland
until most people forget/stop caring about it, and
nothing
is done to stop it from happening again. I’m sick of nothing changing, and going through this same cycle that we have gone through over and over and over again.

Speaking of the Las Vegas, shooting. I posted something on the Cigar Lounge about one of the survivors who now faces a massive financial black hole.

Wonder what would happen if the UN suggested sending in peacekeepers?

But with more killing, and probably no real motive.

Every time something like this happens in America (which is basically weekly now) I feel safer here with the all the drug dealers than with all the maniacs and sociopaths there. At least drug dealers (mostly) keep the killing to themselves.

The peacekeepers would be outgunned in Texas.

The UN doesn’t have enough peace keepers, plus many of your fellow countrymen would class them as an invading form and starting shooting them.

Given I’m not American nor living in the US...my countrymen (in their more drunken moments) would probably try to rub their lovely blue helmets.
And then realise the helmet was occupied by a 400 lb Fijian with a toothy grin and a quiet don’t fuck with me tone of voice.

It drives me insane when people pipe up and shout, ‘it’s our right to bear arms’, ‘you can’t change the constitution’, etc....
First, that amendment was brought in at a very different time when it was necessary to have arms.
The constitution can be changed and has, the right to bear arms is itself an amendment, and when they say you can’t change an amendment, just look at the prodibision of alcohol, which was amended in and then another done to take it out.
