This happens today, what do we do about it today?
Are laws preventing mass shooters? Sociopathic killers?
Are laws preventing mass shooters? Sociopathic killers?
How many mass shooters are there in the US? How many in the UK? Much less (there are mass murders, terrorist attacks etc. but not very many mass shooters). The difference? Gun laws.
I'll never understand why so many people believe that if something isn't perfect, it's broken.
All one has to do is read a single article discussing law enforcement finding and preventing a bomb or a shooter to know that our laws are, in fact, preventing these scenarios. They're just not preventing all of the them.
And you know what? That's good. Freedom has inherent risk. I don't want to live in a society where we're so unfree that our laws are able to prevent all crime.
I don't find articles like this very often. I do find many articles of cia and fbi failure, of the nsa trampling constitutional freedoms, of tsa failing 98% of audits though.
That's just how logic works.
I'm not interested in going on a tangent because you had a political agenda behind your question.
The question has been answered.
To try to wade into this discussion with an absolute refusal to look at a broad picture of small pieces is nonsensical. How can you talk about preventing mass shootings with a simple statement of "yes, obviously laws and police prevent mass shootings?" You know what else does? A lack of guns. Or, maybe, really good mental health care and social welfare. Or, common sense gun control laws. Or... Etc.
By the way, I reject the notion that the FBI actually prevents these things. You look into the story and it's like, they found some vet with PTSD ranting about Jewish conspiracy theories on obscure web forums, then they reach out to the guy and foment him into a terrorist, then arrest him when he tries to buy a gun. Meanwhile 3 schools have been shot up by kids with guns.
Political agenda, come on. What an obnoxious thing to have said to me on this forum.
I would almost bet your next post will include a comparison to either hitler or nazi's.
Either way, I'm certainly done engaging. Not of fan of escalation because you lost the point.
