can you expound? I don’t understand how seeing the carnage will make a difference. Sandy Hook wouldn’t have changed anything if the media showed those babies piled up.

You gotta have empathy to begin with for this to make a difference. Most cacs don’t until it happens specifically to them.
How can you be sure of this?

In the state where it happened, restrictions were tightened.

Mass shootings in Connecticut have gone down. It is up to the people in each state to be serious about whether they're okay with their kids being killed. The average Texas cac seems to be a fukking idiot so maybe they DO need to see the aftermath of mass shootings before they give a shyt.

What happened to your rib, brother?
Back in March I went to Colorado on a couples trip, ended going snowmobiling for the first time and fell over 20+ feet off a mountain into the street, fractured 6 of my ribs, lacerated liver, pneumothorax, plus other injures, had a ER surgery and I spent the rest of March in the hospital. Came home in a wheelchair but now I have a walker and I feel I'm getting better daily. But that long walk from the shooting to get across the street had me in a lot of pain.

We parked in a handicapped spot and my girl was begging me to get out, if it's not physical therapy I spend most days in the house. But while we where in the store, the shots started, it was very close and I could just see people, little kids all running for their life. I knew it was an AR he was shooting with. The outlet is so overpopulated and it's hard to get in and out, especially on a saturday.

There were a lot of cars crashing but I didn't hear a lot of windows breaking, I was just seeing people fall, he was not wasting bullets. People were coming to the window asking to be let in, we let them in.

It was only me and one other guy in the store, the rest were all women. He wanted to leave and make a run for it because the shooter was getting closer and closer but physically I can't run anywhere and I'm a sitting duck so I stayed in the store, him and his wife left running. I had the store manager cut off the lights and we just stayed there.

When we were being escorted out the store, we all heard one last loud shot, that was the shot that killed the shooter.

In retrospect a lot of people were screaming and crying including my girl, I had to calm her down. It may sound like BS, but I wasn't really scared, in the moment. Honestly I'm still shell shocked from my own accident that this situation made me more calm..

that’s where my cynicism alarm goes off. I think the average cac is fine with their neighbor’s children being killed. I’m talking about the kids they see and say hello to every day.

To make a significant impact, the shyt needs to happen directly to them. That shyt is never going to happen so why parade the victims’ around, to show that side that they should care? That doesn’t benefit their families.

Sandy Hook showed me that dead WHITE white children do not matter, on display or not. It’s been all downhill ever since.

They’re not idiots. They’re not oblivious to what’s happening.

They’ve shown time and time again that they don’t give a fukk about killing, especially kids in their own communities.

These shootings are basically dead rapper convos on here

When it happens & people want to talk about making changes. A large group comes in crying about it’s not the time

A few weeks go by & the “time” never comes. A few more weeks go by somebody else gets killed. People seem to be comfortable going with the cycle as long as it’s not them dying
I’m not comfortable with this cycle but what can I do? Even strict gun law states have had mass shootings. It’s literally at a point where gun sales need to stop and a large scale confiscation needs to happen, neither of which are ever going to happen in this country. I think it’s sad that you not only have to worry about one off gun violence (ie a car jacking or robbery gone too far) but also have to fear being in any public space and being a victim of a senseless mass shooting.
