This is shocking.

The NHS is dead btw. It’s now just running in that 5 mins or so when a dead person is still active I guess.

@JakeyBoy the more I read about the police response to this, the more devastating it becomes.

For a town that small to even have a SWAT team is ridiculous to being with, but if they do, the fact that they allegedly waited around or, in one article I read, went into the building to retrieve their own children before trying to help others, is just insane.

It just crystalizes how dumb the argument of adding more guns to schools, adding more police to schools is in my eyes. This school had a whole police force, they had a wall/fence, it didn’t matter. And if people want to go down the road of arming teachers? Well think of your teachers. Do they have the skill or ability to learn how to carry out essentially guerrilla warfare inside a school during an active shooter event? I mean, seriously. It’s just laughable. They want to try everything other than having fewer guns because they’re afraid it will work.

And people still vote them in.

Yes and no. Democrats have won more of the popular votes in the last presidential elections than republicans over the last few rounds but the electoral college system warps the weight of those votes.

If you look further down to the state level you have something similar happening with gerrymandered districts.

And although I don’t understand gun culture or the desire to own a gun even for hunting, I believe even most gun owners want laws on the books to ensure responsible gun ownership.

It’s the very noisy and very extreme group of idiots who think that they have to own an AR15 because their father never hugged them as a child and explained that it’s okay for men to feel sad sometimes and talk about it.

Jesus Christ the amount of shit the shooter went through its not surprising he ended up as one

It’s both.

For example I think bullying in the American school system plays a huge part in these school shootings.

I also believe the ease at which you can get firearms plays a huge part too.

It’s 90% culture imo but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take reasonable measures to limit access to guns

No one wakes up one morning a say he wants to kill a bunch of kids. These events represent a further breakdown of the community and familial structures

Fucking disgusting. Cowards.

Not only did they wait but some also saved they own kids while telling parents to wait

You are in general a troublemaking troll. lol.

That’s only half of it. Parents pleading for them to do something then wanted to intervene themselves but they were stopped and handcuffed. There’s police comms audio missing of the important time also, and it seems that this Uvalde lot are pretty similar to Scott Israel and the Parkland bunch in terms of poor/dodgy leadership of local law enforcement. The press conference yesterday was also a disaster because it was found out a whole load of misinformation was stated by law enforcement after the event, for example there was no armed guard at the school even though they were saying there was one earlier.

(I don’t know why I do this anyway, it’s wasted on most here)

Lmao

UN is absolutely useless. The amount of human rights violation in 2022 is just concerning

Awful bastards.

Russia and China are both just horrific countries.

Can’t wait for the West to start near-shoring their production again.

Does this mean we can start banning Chinese athletes now?

Makes the club look even worse for distancing themselves from Ozil when he tried to raise awareness of this. The same for Elneny and the Palestine issue.

The hilarious thing is football as a whole has been all over the Ukraine issue but has totally distanced themselves from any criticism of China and the CCP.
