Actually, many other countries also have a lot of guns in the hands of private citizens. And some kind of law or statute allowing it.
In other countries e.g. Canada you can own a gun, you just can't walk around like an azzhole with it in public.
Right. So a law preventing walking around with your gun would solve mass shootings? Based on that logic we should solve suicide simply by outlawing it.
This is a list of shootings in the United States that occurred in 2022. Mass shootings are incidents involving several victims of firearm-related violence. The precise inclusion criteria are disputed, and there is no broadly...
Chicago has 50 per year. Mass shootings are almost exclusively perpetrated in blue cities.
Source ?
Source is that almost all cities are blue. Colorado Springs is something like the 4th biggest city in the USA with a republican mayor. Which incidentally just had a mass shooting
New Zealand tightened its gun laws on Thursday with a registry that it had promised after a gunman killed 51 Muslim worshippers last year in the country's worst peace-time mass shooting.
Apparently the suspect is a “male”. That’s all the description provided.
Well, we know what that means…
Deer fellow LRC liberty-minded patriots,
The following is the official Newsmax, OANN, Fox News, Breitbart, Trump/Pence, GOP, 3%er, Oath Keepers, and Proud Boys sanctioned algorithm for assigning motive and proposing possible solutions in response to a mass shooting:
1) First step, determine the perpetrator's religion. If they're Muslim you're done! They are a radical Islamic terrorist motivated by their religion (which should be referred to as a pseudo-religion, political movement, or "death cult" in any discussion). The solution to the problem in these cases is to ban Islam and restrict immigration. It's irrelevant if the perp is a US born citizen or if said ban doesn't even include the perps or perps parents country of origin. The perps religion is the ONLY possible explanation for their motives and the above ban is the ONLY viable solution to prevent future attacks. If the perp is not Muslim move to step two in the algorithm.
2) Second step, if a non-Muslim committed the heinous act determine the perpetrator's race. If they are black you're done! The cause of the crime is the lack or a moral compass in the black community, blacks inherent violent nature, Antifa, or black lives matter. The only possible solutions are harsher prison sentences, for-profit charter schools, reinstatement of school prayer, and tax cuts. If the perp is neither Muslim or black, move to step three.
3) Step three, is the accused Hispanic by chance? If yes, the solutions are to build a MASSIVE border wall across our entire Southern border, permanently station US infantry / artillery / special forces along the US-Mexico border, end chain migration, deportation of all DACA recipients, and mandatory English education...TALK ‘Murican dammit! If the accused is not Hispanic move to the next step below.
4) Is the perp a teenager or a college kid? If yes, you’re done! The cause of the crime is the nanny state, generational laziness, violent video games & movies, pre-marital sex, porn, and the absence of God (The Christian God) in schools. We need to ban all porn, ban all violent video games & movies, teach abstinence-only sex education, bring back school prayer, and slash all entitlement programs (except for Medicare and social security for the elderly...).
5) Can it be proven that the perpetrator is a registered Democrat? If yes, you’re done! The cause is the violent political ideology of the left. Didn’t you know the Nazis were Social Democrats? Didn’t you know that the Democratic Party of the early 20th century was pro-segregation? The only solution to save our Democracy is to have single party control of the Government and to make Trump & his family POTUS for life—that’s how you save Democracy!
6) Is the accused a woman? If yes, this is a rare event but the cause is the loss of family values, no fault divorce, legalized abortion, easy access to contraception, and women’s inability to handle work related stress. We need to ban all abortion, contraception, and divorce to prevent such incidents in the future.
7) This is the final step. In this step the perpetrator is a white male that may or may not be a Christian. In these cases (which are the majority) the only possible explanation is mental illness. In these cases it is way too soon to discus doing anything! After all we cannot overreact to these situations by passing EXTREME new laws! The only option is to turn to prayer and realize that we are helpless to prevent further similar incidents.
After some time for prayer and reflection, the only reasonable possible solution is to arm every man, woman, and child with large caliber firearms and mandate open carry at all times. Please follow the above algorithm at all times to insure a productive, reality based discussion of crime in America on the boards.
In other countries e.g. Canada you can own a gun, you just can't walk around like an azzhole with it in public.

Well it does seem to work. Canada has 1 mass shooting/year on average.
Lol the shooter is almost 100% sure to be black. For one, more than 75% of mass shootings are committed by black males, and they didn’t provide the suspect’s description. Before you say I’m lying, Chicago has 50 per year.
You sound like you know what you're talking about with full objectivity but your racial biases come through with flying colors. FOR ONE, "almost 100% sure to be black" does not equate to "more than 75%", even if that was accurate. Sorry to disappoint you that the shooter's race didn't turn out to be what you were hoping for.
Sheriff Luna says the suspect is an Asian Male, 30 to 50. 5 females, 5 males deceased, 10 in the hospital.
Damn. If true it’s time to update the algorithm. Liberty minded people need to know the appropriate and approved deflection talking points for an Asian mass shooter.
Thoughts & prayers to the victims and their liver ones.
Asian mass shooters are surprising since they're about 6-7% of the population but commit less than 1% of murders / total mass shootings. However, I read a stat that for actual mass shootings (i.e. not , but the ones that'll be on the news for 2+ weeks) Asians make up about 9% which is ironic due to their low rates of violent crime in general.
