"only one mass shooting recently" 🙃
In living memory.
I can't guarantee America has had less than 2 in the last 48 hours.
The US has 55 times as many people living in 36 times as much land and with nearly no restrictions on firearm ownership in the majority of the country. Recipe for a fuckload of mass shootings
It really is.
I do hope you aren't excusing it, but by that logic NZ should have a mass shooting roughly every 4 months by comparison.
You don't excuse a disease, you analyze why it's happening and figure out how to cure it. Understanding the scale of the host is step one. Understanding what other hosts are doing differently, the extent to which it's working for them, and what effect you could hope to see by mimicking them is step two. In the US, actually implementing any improvement requires relatively broad understanding of what exactly is wrong, how to fix it, and how we know the fix will work without also costing so many people their "freedom" to own a ridiculously efficient killing machine that the improvement doesn't get shot down. That's step 3
In living memory, he’s likely australian.
New Zealand going by the username.
NZ does import its mass shooters from Australia. So that works
Exactly. There are some things that kiwis are just not good at, we have to get imports for some jobs.
That's a bingo
Perfect, now that I have you here, I have an important question to ask. What is the proper way to refer to people from NZ? I always end up going with something like "oh, they're New Zealish" but I'm pretty sure that's not correct.
Easy - we're all Kiwis. Like the Dutch.
Important thing is that its not a born here thing - kiwis aren't just NZ European and Maori.
