TEXAS MALL SHOOTING; dozens of gunshots and multiple fatalities.

[Seoul Gleou]

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.

people took the syrian war seriously when that dead boy's body was washed up on a british beach because he and his family were trying desperately to escape

if you show people the toll of this gun violence, they will care more. as of right now, these lives lost are just numbers to the masses.

think about it from the black american perspective. none of the major protests and movements would happen if we didnt see footage of innocent black people murdered by cops

gun violence needs to be visceral and real for the people outside of the victims' families.

they not getting rid of the guns. these shooting are collateral damage they are willing to take. as long as black people have guns anywhere or black people even exist they're not going away. the machine gun was made to mow down black people

This is the reason I rarely go out and stay far far away from predominantly white establishments.

One thing I’ve said is that everything happening is according to plan. This is part of a intentional breakdown of society.

This is actually biblical. Unfortunely even taking away guns won't fix the demonic activity in today's society either. R.I.P. to the victims and condolences to their families. 🕊 🕊

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..

I'm glad you're safe.

The aftermath of mass shootings should be shown on the news so that everyone knows what a mass shooting looks like.

You ever wonder why the bodies of dead soldiers returning to the US are not allowed to be broadcast to the public? Because it has a negative effect on public moral and support for the war effort. En masse, showing the aftermath of mass shooting would absolutely have an effect on the US population.

Every fukking night on the news, show photos and videos of what a mass shooting looks like. Show the bodies of the children. Show the pictures of everyone that used to be. Shove it down the throats of everyone in this fukked up nation.

no it would not we have plenty of communities in this county that see gun violence everyday and nothing changes.

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.

This country trampled over kids, and lost a lot of their own kids, gaining control of this country. The country was founded on the gun, therefore it's going to do whatever it takes to keep the gun. Removal of the gun means a LOT of lives must go along with them. Hard pill but is this nation ready for a civil war over guns?

@dora_da_destroyer why you mean dapping me?

 

[Charlie Hustle]

the avg person in the military is pro gun so
Is the avg cop. I don’t get why you guys think the people in the military would attack their friends and family and go against their belief system

I’m prior military and I find that most gun enthusiasts treat guns like toys and waste their money trying to “tact it out” and they are not prior military.

@dora_da_destroyer why you mean dapping me?

Because I think it’s sick to be begging for links to videos of dead people

 

[Orbital-Fetus]

Shut up, clown. I'm talking about a national media scale. You do realize that things like the news have real world repercussions, right?
Showing dead kids every night would absolutely do something.

Well you and I aren't the same. I personally believe that the only way we can even REMOTELY get these mass shootings to stop is for people to see the dead bodies. The pics of the dead bodies should be plastered everywhere. That's the only thing that will break people out of this monotony and have them marching out in front of Congress en masse demanding strict gun laws. We saw it when Mamie Till did it with Emmett's body. She opened the casket and let the reporters take pictures. And they say that's what sparked the beginning of the Civil Rights movement. Not seeing the bodies isn't doing nothing. Shock people. Let them see the carnage from the bullets, babies shot in the head and I bet you that will shock and enrage people and get them moving. Because talking about it without a picture does nothing, because we can't even fathom what a baby who has been shot in the head would look like. The people need to see the result of a society that welcomes and champions guns.

If you believe this then you don’t personally need to see it, you’re not the person who needs to be convinced of the devastation of these events. You just sound like a voyeur.

The thing is not everyone is on the same page about the solutions. You show dead kids every night some people will want more guns some people will want to get rid of guns.
