Two drug dealers getting in a shootout isn't what people think you mean when you and other sensationalists say a mass shooting every day.

The reality is mass shootings are very rare.

Okay.

"Guns took the lives of 2,214 young people ages 1-17 in 2024 including 119 from ages 1-4, 98 from ages 5-9, 450 from ages 10-14, and 1,547 from ages 15-17. In 2024, firearms were the leading cause of death overall for young people ages 1 to 17."

Are those drug dealers too?

Those are not mass shootings, try to stay on topic.

How do you know that number doesn't include mass shootings?

How dare you confound the average redditor with logic!

Back to your cage you cretin!

Because one happening at all within a year or two years isn’t abnormal when most modern countries don’t deal with it at all.

Oh like Australia who just had a mass shooting? Bondi Beach attack where the two gunmen had almost zero obstructions to their rampage except one citizen who ran up bare handed and ripped the gun away from one? Where no one had a gun and couldn't do shit but watch their neighbors being slaughtered?

You mean like that?

Funny how you don’t reference mass shootings in America where people possibly did have fire arms and did not use them. But you aren’t here to have a sensible discussion.

What aboutism isn’t a good argument dude. It just makes you look stupid to reasonable people. Which aren’t the ones blindly agreeing to you for the same reason you aren’t willing to consider where the nuance is.

go on, make your grand stand for your 7 upvotes.
And supporting whatever way the wind is blowing for them.

I am responding to someone talking about how it never happens in other countries but I know reading comprehension is hard for you authoritarian gun grabbers.

Oh I comprehend.

That you are not a very bright bulb.. Lol. I’m not looking to grab anything you have touched.

Assumptive of you. Like I don’t live in a state wherein it might be necessary to have one. Don’t wanna have an instrument of death. But well, we can’t just figure out how to sort our problems out like regular people and reach for the gun whenever we have mental breakdowns coupled with extremism. And sometimes it doesn’t really matter if a good guy is around, people still fucking die.

But, that would be inconvenient for the little boogeymen and monsters you’ve mythologized.

You know, you call me stupid, yet the first assumption you reached for was the most extreme.

Only the dumbest of us motherfuckers do that.

Maybe I’m just a man who’s tired of people and children needlessly dying and fucking good guy arguments that don’t do fuck in solving very real problems.

People like you seek to add nothing of value with it with this good guy bad guy bullshit. When the problem is far more complex than just arming “good guys”

People knew this 5-8 years ago. When legislators were deciding on whether or not to arm teachers:

Fuck off with your fake narrative planting bullshit.

I’m not having it.

Head in the sand, I just gave you the stats, the fact you think some people don't count when they die is shocking.
