Should there just be a "Mass shooting in the US" sticky thread?

What a missed opportunity for marketing. "Doughnuts and Ammo"??? Seriously?

Off the top, "Buns and Guns" should have been a given. "Blazem & Glazem", "Sugar and Vice", and any number of puns.
Fail.

Ten killed by a murderer in Monterey Park ballroom. No suspect yet.

 

[Mr. Daystar]

Can;t be. Cali has a ban on high capacity mags, and assault rifles. Must be fake news, because gun laws work.

 

[gmase]

Gun laws do work, but - like all laws - they are not 100% effective. Drunk drivers are still arrested everyday. We don’t say “Ditch the laws because we still have drunk drivers.”

To be clear - the human with the gun is responsible.

The only people laws work on, are the law abiding.....and they don't do things like this. What California needs to do, is not worry as much about the type of gun, but who has it, and if they are allowed to have it, or, if they're even allowed to be in this country. They need to crush, with brutal force, and administer with cruelty, the justice necessary to destroy and and all gang and cartel activity. Those found guilty of murders and shootings should be executed publicly, and those committing other serous crimes, sent to Alcatraz island, to rot until they die. A 1 to 2 mile strip of land, all along the boarder needs to be declared a military zone, and should be guarded and protected by the military, with military grade equipment, and the Rio Grande river should be swarming with Naval vessels. Any immigrants in this country legally should be offered jobs to build a few military prisons, where gang and cartel members will be incarcerated. Those trying to cross just because they want out, should be processed, and if every thing checks, give them a green card. The Gulf of Mexico, should have a small fleet of vessels comprised of frigates, destroyers, and a small carrier for launching helicopters and drones, so military type strikes can be launched against cartel positions. Any countries in central and southern America, or mexico, that won't cooperate, we should sever all ties with.

THEN AND ONLY THEN, if this fails to help reduce gun violence, should the GAURANTEED Constitutional rights of law abiding Americans, be up for consideration of violation.

Your vision of America is in stark contrast to mine. You may also want to revisit the Eighth Amendment when suggesting the government dole out 'cruelty'.

The discussion here is concerning mass shootings which are predominately carried out by lone shooters who have been born here - not gangs, cartels, or immigrants.

And no amount of gun control will stop, or fix it, neither will creating gun free kill zones, where most of these things occur. Anything that happens in a city with mostly democrats at the helm, that have high crime rates already, I chalk it up to a gang member committing the crime. They haven't said much about who did this, but it's obviously hate related, considering who was targeted, so I wanna hear the whole story. If it happened in a place like Cali, or any heavily gun controlled stat, they got it illegally. Who do you think sells those illegal guns? I personally feel if a criminal crosses a certain line, they deserve only the minimal Constitutional rights, especially if they've robbed others of their rights. I also don't think certain Constitutional rights should be extended to non citizens.

Another incel shooting (I have heard it was an incel shooter, though no confirmation yet).

When WHEN will the sex industry step up and actually do something to help, as they are the best industry that actually can help in this area.

WHEN

This is the suspect...

Yeh... Looks like it was 75 year old man (Jesus Christ, just how, why, what a crazy story).

Looks like I jumped the gun on that incel stuff... Sorry

If she wants to see who the bigot is it would be nice for her to have a mirror ready. Just another programmed politician obsessed with playing The Six Degrees Of White Supremacy.

Here are a couple other politicians who think blaming racism for everything and dividing people might be politically advantageous for them.

7 killed in California community; suspect arrested
https://news.yahoo.com/least-4-killed-northern-california-012902264.html

Seven people were killed in two related shootings Monday at a mushroom farm and a trucking firm in a coastal community south of San Francisco, and a suspect was in custody, officials said.

Cali again.

The police have arrested 67-year-old Chunli Zhao in connection with the shooting, Pine said.
Pine said the suspect worked for one of the businesses. He called the suspect a “disgruntled worker.”

If Street Fighter has taught me anything, the suspect's name seems to indicate a Chinese background. Although it sounds like a straight workplace dispute, and nothing to do with the New Year or anything else.

"Mass shooting" apparently starts at 3 victims, so...

3 killed in random shooting in Yakima, Washington; suspect dead
https://news.yahoo.com/3-killed-shooting-yakima-washington-163200078.html

Gang related and first degree murder shootings are one thing, but purely random shootings are truly scary.
