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

Pink Floyd got it right:
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears

No, it means now that he's dead, you can take his ***. But I see what you did there, I guess the spin doctors over at CNN have taught you well.
I know what it meant, I was just giving a different pov. I'm not anti-***, I'm pro *** safety and regulations. I don't know what the right regulations should be.
There should at least be mandatory *** safety training to get a license before you can buy or use guns, similar to a drivers license.

Arguments for *** regulation:

1. Public safety: *** regulation proponents argue that stricter laws could reduce incidents of *** ********, mass shootings, and accidental fatalities.
2. Crime reduction: Some studies suggest that *** regulation can lead to decreased crime rates, including firearm-specific offenses.
3. Suicide prevention: Limiting access to firearms may potentially reduce the prevalence of ***-related suicides.
4. Domestic ******** prevention: Stricter regulation may decrease the chances of firearms being used in domestic ******** situations.
5. International comparisons: Countries with tighter *** control laws generally have lower rates of *** ******** compared to countries with lax regulation.

Arguments against *** regulation:

1. Second Amendment rights: Opponents argue that *** regulation infringes on their constitutional right to bear arms, as outlined in the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution.
2. Self-defense: Many people believe that owning a firearm provides them with personal protection and would be concerned that regulation could limit their ability to defend themselves.
3. Ineffective *** control: Critics argue that criminals will still find ways to obtain firearms, regardless of strict *** regulation, rendering the laws ineffective.
4. Misuse of resources: Some people believe that resources should be directed towards addressing the root causes of *** ********, such as mental health or socioeconomic issues, rather than focusing on *** regulation.
5. Ownership responsibility: Many *** owners argue that the majority of them are responsible and law-abiding citizens, and regulation would unfairly penalize them due to the actions of a small minority.

Ultimately, the question of whether guns should be regulated is a matter of personal opinion and depends on one's beliefs and values, as well as the specific context of the country or region under consideration.

Serious question on this: How many incidents per year in the US are there were someone (non-police/security) successfully defended themselves using a registered ***?
Because stories like that would be absolutely huge for *** proponents, yet I feel we rarely hear about that.

The unified crime statistics is the only way or place to find that answer. You will NEVER get the whole truth from the media, it doesn't fit the narrative they need to push for *** control.

Well, it looks like they got the 3rd guy, but still will not discuss motives. I still want to wait for that, but here's an update.

You would also have to add times when firing the weapon wasn't necessary but the person was neutralized merely by someone brandishing the firearm.

Now there's a FOURTH arrested. They all have one thing in common.............Stupid, shitty haircuts.
 
5 ******** near Houston - ****** by their ***** neighbor.

I guess that makes it okay?
Well the total arrested ended up being 6, but as YOU and I discussed briefly, gang shootings shouldn't qualify. Even though they have released very little motive information, it appeared to be heading in that direction by the NUMBER of shooters. I was making that point.

Oropesa is in the country illegally and has been deported previously, an ICE source told Fox News Digital. He has re-entered the U.S. illegally "multiple" times and ICE last encountered him in 2016, the course said.
 
The search is still on for Francisco Oropeza. Here's a picture in case anyone sees him.

Finally! An immigrant commits mass ******. How about the Honduran victims? Fleeing a third-world country just to get ******** in the USA.

There were already laws on the books separating him from the ***. He is *******. Kinda hard to have fun and games playing the Six Degrees Of White Supremacy on this one.
