"No way to stop this, says only country where this regularly happens."
Only to be forgotten by tomorrow's mass shooting!
Wow it's down to just one a day now?
So far in September, I think we're up to something like one every 14 hours.
Soon enough, it'll be like Pacific Rim and we'll have a double event at the same location
Showing up to prom in the same dress as someone else, but its you and another student independently showing up with a rifle.
Honestly I'm shocked we haven't had a coincidental double mass shooting, but I'm also always surprised we don't have more assassinations? Or at least attempts. If you're gonna do it anyway, a senator is way cooler than just shooting up a mall or something
there was the baseball guy but he had shit aim
I'm the opposite of an expert, but I believe from what I've read is that a lot of mass shooters tend to have more concrete "plans" about specific attacks, but something (panic, timing, etc.) has a way of convincing them to go with the simple plan of "pick crowded area and shoot people" instead of targeted attacks.
Loser mentality tbh, can't even confidently commit to the last thing they'll ever do
Just like that scene in It's Always Sunny where Mac and Charlie look at each other in the restaurant, but it's both the school shooters opening their sports bag at the prom ball
the only way to stop a mass shooter is with a second mass shooter in the same location
They shoot all of each other's bullets midflight, then, with only one round left each, they shoot the guns out of each other's hands, saving the day. The NRA hails them both as heroes
They have a Lady and the Tramp moment where they realize they're both shooting the same person
something something …sucks up all the oxygen to extinguish the fire… something something
amerikkka has so much gun violence that years of lead shit hardly rises above the background noise
Was reading there was a mass shooting back in August there in Kentucky, when you can't even keep up with the mass shooting news because it's like a fire hose.
I mean years of lead involved bombings, assassinations, and well funded terrorism.
Useless piece of shit country won’t even focus the violence towards companies and government organizations.
Amerikkkans really are just the absolute worst. Shooting innocent people just going about their business when there are many many others who are truly deserving
The acceptance of gun violence in Imperial America reminds me of how mob violence became normalized in the Russian Federation. That sort of activity would have been inconceivable in the Soviet Union, but then the counterrevolutionaries laid waste to the Eastern Bloc and organized crime suddenly looked like reasonable means of survival.
I was too little to understand the controversy surrounding the Columbine High massacre, but I later did some research on it and it was almost astounding how everybody went apeshit finding somebody to blame, to the point where the capitalist media got in touch with Marilyn Manson and Doom nerds to confirm that they have no itch to either commit or endorse atrocities. Now? It’s hard to imagine the Columbine High massacre making anywhere near the same impact that it made decades ago.
It's wild how people were so desperate to blame pop culture but didn't take their Nazi stuff more seriously
Ban bowling!
The beatles of american mass shootings 
Michael Moore made a whole ass movie about it. Now nobody cares.
The London Police Department has identified 32-year-old Joseph A. Couch as a person of interest who is considered “armed and dangerous.” He is described as a White man, roughly 5 foot, 10 inches, weighing about 154 pounds, police said.
The hot-couch guys have taken to violence.
White man
I am completely shocked by this. Totally inconceivable. Would descendants of slave owning settlers that killed millions of indigenous people really do that? Just go around killing random people?
He’s angry because JD Vance fucked his mom 
fuck.
so based on my read here somebody decided to take shots at passing motorists from the side of the interstate?
my partner drives for a living and knows where this is

So far that's what it sounds like, like it was mentioned itt DC Sniper vibes.
DC Sniper 2: Gunpowder Boogaloo
DC Sniper
First thing that popped into my head too. Deeply deranged country.
Wonder what video game they're gonna blame for this one
Revenge for Concord being "woke".
Star Citizen
Nonzero chance of some aging dying Legatus Pack buyer losing it after getting a terminal diagnosis years from now with no chance to ever fly his Idris(tm)(r).
But like, not the mass shooting part. May their aim be poor, their chamber jammed, and their death-by-class-traitor-pig be swift.
Whether bullets or plumbing every year in America is a year of lead.
When this happened in Phoenix a decade ago people drew targets on their windows. Deeply normal behavior.
I don't get it, pls explain
Basically the same thing happened in 2015 in Phoenix where someone was taking pot shots at cars for like two weeks on the I-10. While it was going on gun chuds drew targets and phrases daring the shooter to hit them on their car windows.
Aah. Eh, if you have no choice, a bit of dark humor can't harm I guess
Plus insurance payouts lol
I feel like the insurance company might withhold on the basis of you very clearly baiting the shooter.
What-she-was-wearing but for cars
