0.000 HBDWhat The Hell Is Going On? Some Thoughts On The Current Mass Shootings In The US.
Seriously, what is happening? I hate writing these posts. First a mass shooting in my hometown of Buffalo NY, now a second mass shooting in a Texas school. Why does this keep happening and what is really going on? (I'm asking a serious question here, it's not hypothetical. I really don't know.) You're not allowed to say guns, there's something more here. A bigger question we need answered. What is compelling people to carry out these heinous acts?  This seems to be a growing phenomena over the last 20 years or so. Sure, occasionally things happened before that, but not with this growing amount of frequency. On top of that, we're seeing a lot of young shooters. These aren't grown adults and old men having a bad day. These are planned, pre-meditated attacks. WHO EVEN THINKS THAT WAY? In the old days a guy got depressed and shot himself in the head or went downtown and jumped off a tall building. These days, people try to take out as many people as they can on the way out! WTF! Is it lack of love? Do they feel that unloved that they want to make as many people hurt as badly as they do? These are difficult times we're living through. Do they just feel that alone and unloved? Is it a broken family unit? Is this the result of both parents working to put food on the table and what happens when kids are left unsupervised? I grew up in the 80s and was part of the first generation of latchkey kids. Lack of parental supervision back then created underage drinking, pot smoking, and pre-marital sex. Have times changed that much? How did we go from out of control kids, to kids completely losing control? In conspiracy circles they talk about mind control and manipulation. I really think this is reaching, yet, it seems plausible at this point. Something weird is going on with people. NORMAL PEOPLE DON'T ACT THIS WAY. Have they been manipulated in some way to carry out these atrocious acts? Is there some super sinister government black project manipulating and controlling people to carry out these despicable actions of cowardice? I even have to ask, is it being done intentionally to disarm the general public? At this point, I think it's a fair question. Each time it happens, the outcry for gun control grows.  I've read other articles about the rise in anti-depressant usage and the correlation to mass shootings? Could it be a rise of chemical imbalances in peoples brains? What's causing these imbalances? It's obviously a mental health issue or at least some part of it is. These aren't the actions of a well adjusted, stable human, that's for sure. Could it be a combination of all the above? I honestly don't know. Frankly, we might want to consider arming up like the old west days. Everyone carry a side arm. At this point, I don't trust any of you crazy bastards. First person to pull out a gun in a crowded area, everyone just unloads on them. Joking, not joking. My elderly parents are afraid to leave the house and do simple things like shopping because of this stuff. I'm tired of the give up your freedom for safety crowd too. Protect us, protect the children! Please save us from ourselves! Something must be done! The left screaming to take away everyone's assault rifles. With each new outrage and tragedy we lose more rights and freedoms AND ACTUALLY ASK FOR IT! Somethings wrong! Something is seriously wrong.  These people obviously want to kill, if not guns, they'd figure out another way... Cars, poison, knives, swords,improvised explosive devices, etc... They can all be weapons in the hands of those that want to do us harm. We've even seen them used this way in countries with extreme gun laws. This is a people problem, not a gun problem. The guns just make it easier. I believe in gun rights. I believe we have a right to protect ourselves from our own governments. Gun rights aren't for hunting. They were so we could protect OURSELVES, and also to keep us armed and protected from a tyrannical and over reaching government. I don't think this is over-reaching either. During the pandemic, regardless of how you feel about pandemic politics, most people can agree that many of the governments overstepped and abused their powers. How could anyone expect citizens to disarm when so many people distrust the people trying to disarm us. It's just not going to happen. In the meantime, while the government tries to disarm the citizens, the police are being militarized in most cities. Some places even have mini-tanks! There is no need for tanks in US neighborhoods. There is no need to militarize the police force. This is also being done for a reason, and it's about control, not enforcement! Wake up people. Do I even need to add that you're probably more likely to get shot by a cop in this country than to die in a mass shooting. Can a single week go by where a police officer somewhere doesn't make headlines for corruption, abuse of power, or killing someone during a standard traffic stop. What I don't believe in is senseless violence. We need to get to the bottom of why this is suddenly happening. Seriously, we need to find out why this happening. DON'T SAY GUNS! Sure they make the job easier but we've seen it in other countries. When people want to kill they will run you over with their car, stab you with a knife, poison you, or blow you up with an IED (improvised explosive device). This really has nothing to do with guns at all. This has everything to do with why people feel the need to senselessly wipe out half a shopping mall, or a classroom of students. Sure, guns make it easier, but where there's a will, there's a way. These people seem extremely motivated. We need to stop pointing fingers at the tools these people use, and figure out why these people feel the need to commmmit these atrocities in the first place. If we don't this cycle is only going to continue on in one form or another.
