Re: Police: Multiple Victims in South Carolina church shooting [W:224]
I'm not sure why you reposted your Onion piece in a reply to me.
And I guess you're unfamiliar with the Dunblane (Scotland) school massacre or the Norwegian killer who shot all those campers a few years ago or the mall shootings in Nairobi, or the even more recent mass murders in Paris.
Wrong.
Just pointing out that mass murder by gunfire is a common occurence in the US, where its virtually unknown in other developed nations. Seems like precisely the time to point out that we may have the power to stop the next one.
I'll repost for clarity. Yes, it is satirical. Yes, it does not have solutions. But it points to the fact that the solutions can exist, yet 'partisans goring each others oxen' may be precisely why they are not implemented.
