after the wild success of the op at sandy hook and the banning of assault rifles, the CIA then orchestrated the las vegas shootings to then ban all handguns in america, paving the way for the communist state

Groovelord Neato posted:What the gently caress would be the point of Las Vegas being an op? Wanted to ban bump stocks that badly? We let 20 first graders get murdered we aren't doing jack poo poo. The material effect of any one of these events is never significant and has no impact on policy that I can discern. The net impact of all of these events is a general contribution to destabilization of the republic, polarization along partisan lines, public anxiety which swells in predictable waves and can be manipulated through media, and shaking faith in institutions to protect us. If one is inclined to believe a certain set of theories that arise, more or less, out of the existence of MKULTRA and related programs and the likelihood that these programs continued long beyond where the declassified public records that can be found with FOIA start, then it's pretty easy to start inventing reasons that such acts could have happened as a result of either direct state action or groups of spooks trying to steer public anxiety. The flipside is that, based on 41 years of living here, many people are loving assholes and like 2/3 of that group seems to be armed to the loving teeth. So, what's more likely, the state secretly and covertly setting up some number of these events or explicitly allowing them to occur with foresight and knowledge -- or, the state simply being a place that's full of rear end in a top hat lunatics with guns, and periodically capitalizing on it when one of them decides to go shoot up some public space? I don't actually know but the second thing doesn't involve any real spoopyness and also seems like a thing that's prone to just happen with frequency as a nation full of armed idiots gets increasingly squeezed for material goods.

Complications posted:the supreme court just ruled that the right to bear arms can't be infringed in public places so none of those signs are constitutional now it's a lovely opinion that's going to make it harder for states to regulate guns, but this is a misrepresentation. It looks to me like they are telling NYS (and implicitly everywhere else), that "shall issue" permits are the law of the land. That is, this ruling does not prevent NYS from requiring permits to own or carry pistols. It does prevent NYS from saying "if you want to carry a gun you need to provide a good reason for why which is then approved by the state", and flips the onus around to "if the state wants to prevent you from carrying a gun, then the state must demonstrate a good reason why you are not entitled to do so". Yes, lovely, very very very loving far from saying "gun free zones in schools are now illegal". In fact, NYC is at least making noise about just designating the entire loving city as a gun-free zone (https://www.thecity.nyc/2022/6/23/23180506/could-all-new-york-city-designated-gun-free-zone) -- the current SCOTUS would obviously strike that down, but we'd find out what the new limits in the new normal are. Groovelord Neato posted:3 percent of American adults own half the guns. this is true, but also seems like mostly a thief magnet since even Paddock couldn't use more than 1-2 weapons at a time. Also, while a small number of people have a lot of the guns, if you have 3 neighbors, statistically 1-2 of them are armed https://www.statista.com/statistics/249740/percentage-of-households-in-the-united-states-owning-a-firearm/ I think this is an underestimate because of the number of paranoiac gun owners who would immediately slam the phone down if some surveyor asked them about weapons. Dustcat posted:i don't understand why the cia would need to run ops to do mass shootings in america, we already have them This is where Occam tends to get me, but also the CIA etc have done some really gross poo poo and if there were 1-2 mass casualty events over the years that had the stink of the MIC on them somewhere it wouldn't meaningfully change my world view.

Groovelord Neato posted:Why did Adam Lanza murder 20 first graders. good question. Also why was there some dude in camo and black gear behind the school who was initially arrested and then let go and no information was ever released on who he was or why? It's certainly possible, perhaps likely, that it's a dumb coincidence of some kind but the initial reporting was along these lines: quote:A man with a gun who was spotted in the woods near the school on the day of the incident was an off-duty tactical squad police officer from another town, according to the source. That Newton Bee article has been scrubbed, so, all we have is wordpress poo poo saying it existed! I do remember at the time thinking "why the gently caress was there an off-duty tactical officer in gear behind the school before the shooting? That's kinda weird". Not any weirder than the fact that a couple people from the Boston Marathon bombing told the media that LEO was conducting a "bomb drill" the day of the event quote:"At the starting line this morning, they had bomb sniffing dogs and the bomb squad out there," he said. "They kept announcing to runners not to be alarmed, that they were running a training exercise." There's weird poo poo around most events if you start digging and losing your sense of incredulousness because the world is a weird, inexplicable place.

I don't disagree with you, I do not believe these events were state sponsored, and to the extent coverups have been involved, I believe Columbine shows us the playbook for why that is: when law enforcement gets involved during/after a ton of people, especially kids, get killed, then every action they take will be called into question and cops constantly gently caress poo poo up or do dumb poo poo or say racist poo poo over the radio, and also are willing to commit crimes to cover up basically meaningless events like "said the n-word during a mass shooting" which, while lovely, is unlikely to have impacted the material outcome. However, just because these events are not (likely) some kind of operation, doesn't mean the media narratives around them are at all trustworthy or reliable. They are almost always cop-sympathetic etc, and even when they take a critical view, they do so gingerly and in a way that doesn't cause changes.
