This isn't mental illness.

This isn't deranged individuals.

This is terrorism. Let's stop saying it's just white people shooting, and start calling it what it is. Three individuals, dressed in tactical military gear, who had an organized plan to hurt/kill innocent people is TERRORISM.

And if I hear one more Republican politician offer "thoughts and prayers".....that doesn't change a DAMN THING, you morons. How about you actually offer a plan to stop this stuff?!

So it's the Republican politician's job to stop terrorism? Got it. France is probably screwed.

War on Drugs, War on Terrorism. It's all the same thing. Gun Control, yadda yadda yadda. To think that a Republican or a Democrat can end the downward spiral of society is asinine.

President Obama is Republican? He offered thoughts and prayers too

Exactly what Cougnix said.

Democrats will never get the gun control they want just like the Republicans will never end Roe v Wade

Best part of listening to this:

"We still have people on the golf course golfing. clear this now!"

Active shooter situation and we have a dude on hole 14 deciding whether a 7 or 8 will get him there.

fear is like cancer, it spreads and preys on you and spreads and creates insecurities that don't really exist until you become paralyzed and believe things like this.

there have always been issues in society and we overcome because good will always trump bad. there has never been a better time to be alive than right now. don't let fear infect you to believing such ridiculous things like our world or society is spiraling.

that's a cop out for negative people who are always negative who want to point at shit and say 'look, here we go again'.

terrorism/mass shootings are a horrible problem. but there are millions of other good things that have happened to our society right along side it that will never get the same attention because fear>good to the masses. to simply look at terrorism as the biggest thing is ridiculous.

and i hope when you hear someone else say something like this you stop them and cut them off and don't let them spew this nonsense.

It is the only time I go on Twitter actually. Good timing on posting that.

But i will say Reddit has far surpassed that during these events.

No, my point is the whole "oh, prayers sent, back to doing whatever I was doing" is a rhetoric that needs to stop. Something needs to change. Simply sending "thoughts and prayers" isn't going to fix this epidemic.

This is a very weird scenario.

They are stating one room of the center was targeted, not the center. It was being rented for a holiday party by a group with no affiliation to the actual center.

3 gunmen which doesn't normally go with the disgruntled employee MO.

Maybe cartel type hit!

He also (as he did days ago) called for reform. That's my point. Sending thoughts/prayers is nice and all, but it doesn't fix things. I don't care who does it, I don't care what they do, but changes need to be made. Start bringing ideas to the table.

You guys are all so funny. I'm not fearful, nor do I live my life with worries. My wife and I have raised 3 great kids that are respectful and do the right things. But you all try to jump on the "Grumpy" persona that comes across in my posts. I didn't even know about the shooting, nor did I look it up. But I find it funny that people will put blame on the President, Senators, etc.

but, Whoa as Me!! :lol:

don't be so quick to want politicians to rush to make change.

many events like this create horrible policies that are filled with backdoor deals that get passed due to public pressure.

preventing people from doing this is incredibly hard if they don't have fear of losing their own lives. it doesn't matter what policies we put into place, they aren't stopping any time soon
