Re: Today's shootings
Someone who was reportedly a member of '#resistance' and some people claim a member of 'antifa' shoots up a school, and you think ordinary Americans are going to give up their guns?

America is in the political phase of a civil war right now, and most of the Americans I know online expect the left to turn it into a hot civil war before long. Even if this scumbag turns out to be Donald Trump's illegitimate Mexican son, they still wouldn't give up their guns, because they don't want to be part of the next Holodomor.

I'm surprised someone has actually started a thread on it.
Why not start a thread saying "This morning I got out of bed"?

You don't need to visit sites, just switch on the TV to taste the invective being whipped up. If you have a lunatic who'll shoot up a school because he's got a gripe, then look around, the place is full of lunatics, each of whom's full of hate and fear for the otherside... and there are so many other sides to choose from.

Re: Today's shootings
I think Michael Moore summed it up pretty well in his documentary 'Bowling for Columbine'.
"Climate of fear"
Regardless, it's awful news and sad.

It was the first report I saw - very little detail at the time - and then the school shooting overtook it.
