View Full Version : Not a good search engine result
I am not trying to fuel the fire or anything like that. I just saw this and wanted to share. It does not look good either.

Is the for the US or the world?
Interesting. I personally felt that the results of the 2008 Presidential Election were as tragic as the Virginia Tech and Aurora shootings.
Unlike the Facebook information provided, I try not to base my choices on the tragedies we face in life that are caused by mentally ill individuals or voters.
Be safe.
Its days like these that I wish that we had universal healthcare to include mental healthcare. I have to wonder if this could have been prevented?
Also this loony had those guns because his mother was one of the "prepers". The same crazies that Glen Beck preys on when he sells his end of the world preparedness kits. I am guessing she had a few screws loose too. Sadly she was noted by people that knew her of fearing her son and wondering if she should have him committed? So I blame her just as much as him.

Unfortunately the results of the 2008 and 2012 Erection (cause we all got fawked) are more devastating than any individual or collective atrocity.
One man with a briefcase can cause more damage than one hundred men with guns......

Agreed, end the unconstitutional FED and reign in Wallstreet lawlessness [Beer]
Too bad his mother wasn't prepared to end her son's shooting spree before it started. She had weapons and she was afraid of him. Had she been able to defend herself, she would have been defending 26 other innocent people. Unfortunately, she was a murder victim and the sick murderer was not confronted by anyone else who was able to stop him because they were obeying the law in a manner that criminals don't seem to be capable of.
Everyone who feels safer because Congress is considering passing legislation raise your hand.
Anyone? Anyone?
Didn't think so.
The positive thing that I hope comes out of this is to make mental healthcare more accessible. I would rather treat crazy people than to have the scared public treat all gun owners at the same level as the nuts. Time to address the root problem and not just fall back on ideological entrenched positions that do no good to fix the root problem.

Stop voting for idiots and there will be more positive things to "come out of this". Told you this was coming, now stop talking.

Sweet graph. What is the scale? No labeled axis makes it impossible to tell how they are misrepresenting their numbers.
Complex problems have numerous causes and no single solution would fix such problems even if I believed a solution exists.
Violence and murder have existed as long as people have walked the Earth.
While I would like people to seek help for their mental health issues, in the Land of the Free, it seems to be illegal to compel all those who are mentally ill to accept treatment. Talk to a few homeless people and see how long it takes you to talk them into accepting mental health treatment. In fact, the murderer's mother was in the process of committing her son to a treatment facility. His reaction was not totally foreign to many of us who have dealt with Emotionally Disturbed Persons.
Be safe.
What you knew that a deranged killer was going to mow down over 20 kids? Well I have to say common sense and statistics say that when mental healthcare is next to impossible to get unless you are a criminal, stupid shit is going to happen. So yea.... sadly it was only a matter of time because some people did not want to address the root problem.
The search engine results are there, its not Obama leading this. Its the public after a string of whackos doing insane stuff that has them scared. We need to fix our mental health system.... decades ago.
And I agree with Cstone

Sorry, thought you had "Cat treats"[LOL]
Actually I feel it is merciful that her son killed her. She has 100% culpability for this incident. She knew damn well her son was a nutbar, she had $200k plus coming in for alimony annually so she had the means to get her son help yet did not and most reprehensible of all, she left firearms accessible to where an irresponsible party could access them.

They maybe, but judging by the FB traffic changes I have seen, I don't doubt it.
And damn you all are making sense lately, I agree with BPTactical

I've discovered the root cause of all these tragedies: it isn't guns, it isn't lack of mental healthcare, it's people!
If we could just have an open and honest debate and compromise and end political posturing and reach across the aisle and be bipartisan and ban people we could end these senseless killings!

The root cause of all these tragedies is freedom, plain and simple.

Freedom that is evaporating before our eyes.
Freedom that the blood and honor of countless Americans has paid for.
I for one remember that price they have paid. And I hold that price in great reverance.

Or the lack thereof. If we were truly free, tragedies like this would still happen, but at least the victims involved would have a fighting chance.
100% correct Sharpie. And Bert.
