The hospital received 13 children at their facility who were being treated for varying injuries, he said. Two children were transported to San Antonio and another is pending transfer, Tom Nordwick said.

Additionally, two patients were dead on arrival, he said. Nordwick was not sure of the ages of the two deceased. A man in his 40s was also being treated there, he said.

Nordwick did not have conditions on any of the victims.

I keep trying to upload that video of the psychologist explaining how to lessen these school shootings by not reporting them in a sensationalist manner, spliced with footage from Christchurch shooting media sensationalisation, but the attach file function is being an asshole. We now have two teenagers, old enough to be influenced and mentally stunted from 2+ years of isolation, having committed mass shootings within weeks of each other. One of which (last one in Buffalo) openly admitting to going down the Tarrent rabbit hole because he saw shit on the news and decided to read up on it when 15, and then was converted to the idea over the course of 3 years.

Now I'm catching up on this faggot, and you can't tell me that this guy didn't plan on shooting up this school and just decided on a whim without serious planning and inspiration. Fuck this guy, fuck Tarrant, fuck journalists and politicians who use these events and keep them in the minds of people for months to years later, who use these for gun grabs and restrictions, and for keeping it interesting enough that maladjusted teenagers end up getting inspired by this kind of shit.

Hi, how are you feeling?

I am guessing you are hurting and heartbroken about this tragedy. Most here are too. Personally, it breaks my heart that young kids are dead. Words cannot begin to describe what has occurred.

I am guessing part of you is seeking a way to express the grief that you feel. But when you look on here, you see discussions treating this like nothing is happening almost as if we do not share your grief.

While I cannot speak for everyone, most of us do. However, I would suspect like me many realize that seeking to lash out using our grief, for our grief to take control of our actions is not useful. We must face facts, our grief will not change the fact these kids are dead.

No amount of raging, tears, or gnashing of teeth will bring these little souls back, they will not heal their broken bodies, they will not consul the parents going through unimaginable agony.

So why should we rage? Why not grieve in our hearts but analyze with our brains? You are shocked that we analyze the ramifications of this?
View attachment 3316832

Am I supposed to ignore the hidden dagger in the hands of my enemy? Shall I delude myself to believe that the tragedy of 9/11 was not used to restrict rights?

No. I will not blind myself to these threats.

 Are you shocked? Dismayed? Raging?

Look at what site you are on. You are on a site that laughs at others on the internet. Most here lack the degree of empathy more sensitive people have who believe it's wrong. We literally make fun of others misfortune or poor life choices. You are not on a site that is a hug box, dude.

Are you offended over our talk and interest in firearms? Too bad. You mentioned wild animals, but do you know why I carry a firearm, apart from my job? It's because as brutal as a wild animal is, man is much more brutal and ruthless.

An animal attacks bout of hunger, fear, or protecting their young. Man attacks out of hate, greed, jealousy and everything else that makes us fallen. When confronted by such a debased beast would you want the best means to preserve your life? I would.

Do you believe that an AR or semi-automatic rifle is not needed for this goal?
Many believe that same as you and you are free to campaign to change the Constitution of the United States. Until that happens, you may disagree with sale and possession of such weapons but they remain protected by our founding charter.

I hope you find peace in your emotional turmoil.

Peace.

Eyewitnesses say he crashed his truck, started shooting at them, and then ran for the school.

 

[Not A. Yankee]

I gotta ask, why is it that all these mass shooters have red flags on their social media and seemingly no one intervenes/stops them? How are they getting the money to buy this and or, why do their parents seem to not care about them having firearms?

There's a Wiki list for shootings that may qualify as "mass shootings" in the United States. According to that list, there was 693 in 2021. I do think that only some of them get highlighted by the media while everyone else is usually more hushed up.

Doesn't the FBI call any time 2 or more people are injured with a gun a mass shooting? Or is that someone else's definition? Even disregarding that, it's less than a thousand in one year across an entire country of well over 300 million.

"Stand up to the lobbies"
This fucking nigger has been a politician for his entire life. Nigger YOU WERE THE ONE WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DOING IT. YOU NEVER CARED NIGGER FUCK YOU.

"We will not forget"
Coming from Biden that a choice quote.

Not to sound like a complete prissy bitch, but I fucking hate when people who are in positions of high power act like they are powerless. What do you mean "stand up to the lobbies"? Why do we have to stand up to them when you're the goddamn president? Is your moral backbone that fragile to the point where you just can't say "no", even when they start handing you wads of cash?

[pwnest injun]

I'll be "that guy" but a rifle + plates can be had for sub $1,000, all day long.
Assuming he has the absolute shittiest gear ever though.

The guns were posted on his insta. They were not entry level weapons.

Fun fact: Beta blockers completely halt your body's self-preservation instincts. Its the most common anti-depressant medication and makes you do things you wouldnt when you arent taking it.

ALL mass shooters on the last 20 years or so in the US were using beta blockers or similar drug and were under medication for some sort of mental illness that archieves this exact same effect.

You're thinking of SSRIs for everything past the first sentence.

His mother is apparently one of the school teachers, that's the reason he went to the school.

Not sure if this is accurate. TV news is saying he shot his grandmother in San Antonio and was beelining to the US Mexico border when his truck crashed into a ravine outside the school. AFICT, the dead kids are not part of any plan. Could be wrong tho. Lots of BS forming up.

 

[CarlosDanger]

The thing our "elected officials" don't get is that people don't listen to them about guns anymore. Half of the states in the US allow Constitutional Carry and with the Supreme Court possibly about to hammer NYC's atrocious anti-gun laws, it's a dead issue.

Before 2020 they may have had support, but after the Wuflu panic and the Floydpocalypse everyone wanted to be armed and ready for whatever came next. If my sister and mother who never liked guns suddenly start buying them and asking me and my dad questions about ammo and such, you know you've lost the plot.

Same with my mom, she always hated guns but after the floyd riots, she now carries concealed.

 

[FunPosting101]

Blaming mental health is a big cope much like just blaming guns or racial politics or some single issue. It would be so easy if we could give kids prozac so they wouldn't shoot up schools. WWII vets didn't shoot up schools, Vietnam vets didn't shoot up schools. Gun laws used to be much more lax and you could get automatic weapons. Racism used to be much much worse. These shootings are modern phenomena with extremely deep explanations for why they happen that nobody in the media or political class wants to confront because they would have to talk about things like class, healthcare access, poverty, nihilism and the directionless disturbed nature of the young in the post-national globo hellstate economy that has been built.

There's probably some truth to this, but the fact that the media makes celebrities out of the assholes who do this combined with disturbing large number of people still being basically confined to their houses even if not legally(I.E lots of people went full paranoid nutbag over the pinko pox and still haven't recovered)confined is probably what led to these two recent homicidal rampages.

 

[Meat Target]

Even disregarding that, it's less than a thousand in one year across an entire country of well over 300 million.

And murders with rifles are even more rare. Most gun murders are committed with handguns.

 

[Random Internet Person]

Is it legal to buy guns and put them directly into storage while overseas

Has anyone ever tried?

14 18 kids and 1 3 adults are dead and people are sperging about the perpetrator's race, like it fucking matters

just another sad day....

edit:

Welcome to The Thunderdome. We like to go off the rails.

this thread is fucking AIDS. you fags don't care about this shit anymore than the retards on TV do. You were chomping at the bit to talk about how the media was going to make this about gun control because you couldn't give less of a shit about the dead, you only want to pretend you're on the right side because some dude on the frontier didn't want to get assfucked by bears so he said we should have guns. Everything you could find on the dude was just more evidence that the left was going to ignore this or that everything you've ever thought was completely correct and the only reason you're a failure is because (((THEY))) orchestrated it that way, it's the only answer.

it's a drama site about internet personalities. I want to learn about this tard's shit. I want to see what he post and what he watched and try to understand it and crack a joke because nowhere else will let you do that and it's nauseating to see you secondaries pollute the site and think because you're red instead of blue it's ok. God I hope Null really does make a seperate site for happenings because it has leaked into the rest of the forums like a broken diaper. NORMIES GET OUT REEEEEEEEE

don't dislike my post you fucking babies say something you spineless cowards

I think you just made a new copypasta. Congratulations .

Some facts about the shooting thus far:

1. The shooter was an 18 year old named Rolando Romas who attended Uvalde High School
2. Robb Elementary School is 90% Latino (im not calling it latinx)
3. Nearly half of Uvalde, Texas is non-English speaking
4. The city of about 16,000 people is approximately 60 miles from the United States-Mexico border

Sounds like a place /pol/ would like to wipe off the map.

Biden is wondering why this doesnt happen in other countries. Except they do. Mass shooting do happen in lots of places around the world. All of them are multi cultural countries too. That seems to be the one truly unifying feature with very rare exceptions.

1. The definition of “mass shootings” probably depends on a number of bodies on the ground. 2. I can see why registration was closed now.

This guy wasn’t a criminal gangbanger though, he’s looking like a mentally deranged troon that just happens to have access to military grade hardware.

Okay, I'm going to have a bit of a sperg, and this was the one that was closest. AR-15s with rails and optics does NOT equate to "military-grade". In fact, in terms of construction quality, many civilian ARs are actually better than military-issue ones, by virtue of not having been produced by the lowest bidder. The key difference between a "military" and "civilian" AR is the presence or absence of a three-position selector switch; in addition to the safe and semi-automatic positions on a typical AR, any military-issue one will also feature either a fully-automatic or three-round burst setting. While in military parlance, this is a key component to qualifying a weapon as an "assault rifle", under civilian law, these fall under the blanket of "machine gun", which is defined as "any weapon capable of discharging more than one cartridge per pull of the trigger". While machine guns are not strictly banned in the US, very heavy regulations on their manufacture, sale, and possession, combined with a generous helping of market forces on the small supply that is up for sale, make them effectively unobtainable for the vast majority of the American population.

Further compounding this issue is that a three-position selector is a very fine detail on an AR-platform rifle, essentially requiring close examination to determine if a rifle has one or not. In this case, the easiest source of identification is actually likely to be the media: if somebody actually commits a shooting with a full-auto rifle, rest assured that you will never hear the end of it, whereas copes like "assault weapon", "military-grade", or "ghost gun" will usually indicate that the weapon was compliant with ATF regulations. Just because it looks like something out of Call of Duty doesn't mean it is.

The line between military and civilian weapons has always been blurry at best; from muskets to repeaters to bolt-actions to semi-autos, they have looked and operated the same, because if it works well enough in a war, it will work well enough for whatever you need, from hunting to target plinking to home defense.

I’m just surprised he has made it this far. If Kamala was any bit more competent than he is, he would have been 25th’d by now.

 

[apolloday]

Pretty much what I expected, you have to understand that his speech was already prewritten a long time ago and they've just inserted some info relating to the current situation so it doesn't sound like it. It's just a canned response to tide people over.

"mass shooting" is 4 or more fatalities from one event.

The thing is they can't and don't want this issue resolved because they just want to use it as a political cudgel to hit Republicans over the head with. Also they don't want to open the can of worms where the far left has all of a sudden is buying guns, and after the Floyd riots, first time gun owners spiked.

Is it legal to buy guns and put them directly into storage while overseas

Form a Gun Trust (LLC specifically made to own firearms on behalf of its members) with someone who can buy and store them for you.

 

[Joshuan Moon]

I love the "appeal to the AWB" arguments with how great it was for reducing mass casualty violence. Columbine is the prototypical mass shooting and it happened during the AWB with AWB compliant guns excepting the pre ban Tec-9 which was illegally acquired.
