It's sad how easily the big "trusted" news outlets can be manipulated by a few people on reddit/twitter. Especially when it comes to something like outing someone as a mass murderer.

These shootings suck but you guys need to just accept that it will happen again. And again. And again. Because we are Americans, and we will never change. :freep:

Please Russia, nuke us into oblivion, we deserve nothing less


we should just go medieval on their rear end, dig up their corpses and put them on trial and then throw their corpse into a river to get eaten by dogs and animals. or give the corpse to a bunch of necrophiliacs.

Not in my state. Background checks for all at gun shows. Not that the check necessarily even loving matters, I mean look at good ol' Dylan Storm Roof.

This news has me ordering some more .223 before the panic buyers snatch it all up.

lol if you actually believe this

this is definitely how it is in most states

gun dealers (as in actual licensed gun dealers) have to do background checks on all buyers when they sell at gun shows, but anybody off the street can also come in and sell and don't have to check poo poo

that's in MN by the way, a pretty liberal and progressive state

Over 95% of mass shootings are committed by men. Mostly straight white men. That statistic should be front and center in every news story. “Why are there so many mass shootings?” is the wrong question.

Instead ask “Why are there so many mass shootings committed by men?" This is irrefutable. Yet talking about how toxic forms of masculinity impact our society in devastating ways is too uncomfortable for most.

if that's really the shooter, on that twitter link someone found torrents he'd uploaded to a tracker, and there are some gently caress the Bankers, Smash the Corporatocracy movies / books interspersed with porn and other mundane uploads. He also has a couple posts about mass shootings.


Judging by his username of Lithium_Love he probably had a mood disorder. It's much weirder than eggman was.

Lol of course someone who kills innocents would side with cops.

the murder rate has been pretty constant for a while now. more white men are being portrayed in the media as committing crime and we should applaud this as a victory for equality.

EDIT: not making this up, i grew up 10 minutes from UCC

Actually, in Oregon, as of June, it is illegal to transfer a gun to someone without a background check. Even if ownership isn't transferring.

So, you can't loan someone a gun without a NICS, much less sell it to them.


But, here's the thing. NICS is worthless. This guy would have passed NICS, no problem.

the thing is that most of these guys have 100% clean criminal records and have never been ruled a threat to themselves or others.

there is pretty much no way to profile these people because by every measure they are the boring-rear end people who make up a huge chunk of society. the fact that theyre mostly ignored and socially withdrawn also means nobody knows them well enough to tell that anythings wrong.
