Shooter was a "loner" who was "bullied"

[vraiblonde]

Maybe...just maybe...these psycho kids who commit murder were shunned because....they were psycho kids and other kids didn't want to be around them?

"Oh, here's this mental case voted most likely to shoot up the school - yeah, I'ma go be his friend...."

You lose! The angel of death has made that Hemi wanna-be forfeit his 8 more tries.

He died tryin' though!

And his daddy bought him a gun.

Did he? I may have missed something. I heard that the father had bought the gun, but he took it without their knowledge. I was offline a few hours today to have lunch with my daughter and her family along with my niece and her boyfriend.

So who is this Maxwell Yearick then?

I heard that when CBS broke in on the Scottish Open (they did that a couple of times). They were pretty clear that the gun was bought for his kid, nothing was said about the parents not knowing about him having it. But again it is MSM so maybe it should be discounted.

Like I said, I could be wrong. If dad bought the gun for son, he needs to be charged also.

If the son was a minor (under 18) I would agree. But at 18 the kid could buy/possess a long gun.

Do you have a link? It seems unlikely he would just decide to go buy an AR-15, when was it purchased? I also know quite a few dems (shocking) and none own that type of gun… I saw other posts about the parents supposed political leanings.

These young men, these kids who don’t fit, we’ve been seeing this pattern for decades. If we ignore it we are creating time bombs.

If Trump came up with some program to give these kids hope, like he did with parental leave for federal employees, that would be incredible. I truly believe Trump wants to be remembered as a positive force and put us in the right direction, he is in a unique position to tackle this crisis of these types of shootings by rouge young men against innocent people.

Lock them up: Judge sends Pittsburgh Trump protesters to jail

Two Pittsburgh men are sentenced to jail after an altercation with police during a campaign appearance by Donald Trump at the convention center.

Since we can't believe anything that comes from randos on the internet, who knows. This is a plausible conspiracy theory, though, albeit one that will be hard to keep contained once Trump becomes President again.

There's not a lot you can do with mental illness, especially when people actively seek out input that encourages and exacerbates it.

I'd like to see more mental health focus in this country, but there is a large segment of our society that thinks not getting your way in an election is cause for a legitimate mental health breakdown. They also think men can give birth and women are just a matter of opinion.

This, of course, is being fueled by bad actors in the media, who take orders from their bad actor bosses, who are being paid by the REAL ****ing bad guys. THOSE are the people we need to get rid of and send back to babbling on street corners and in NYC subways. If it weren't for them, the politicians wouldn't get away with the hateful behavior they enjoy - they'd just be dork politicians, nerds in suits like they used to be in the good old days.

Shutting these voices down would go a LONG way toward getting Democrats in particular back to some semblance of mental health, but do you really think those people would go quietly? Imagine if Trump were to make an executive order shutting these outlets down - the Left howled in rage at him kicking rogue fake "reporters" out of his pressers.

There is a movement called “heterodox” that is addressing these issues, most main stream people are applaud by questions like “what is a woman”.

The pendulum is swinging, it’s taking time, but it’ll adjust.

I've lost patience. It's been going on for FAR too long already and sane people should have put a stop to it right off the bat....and yet here we are.

It's hard not to believe it's a coordinated attack on American citizens and decency and values, designed to turn us against each other and purposely create chaos. How does something as ridiculous as "what is a woman?" gain traction in the first place? How does equating this trans fad with gay people become a thing? Or drag queens - what the hell do they have to do with trans or gay or anything?? How does anyone get away with saying black people can't get photo IDs?? Or allowing unvetted unidentified foreigners to disappear into our country??

It's gotten way out of hand and I hope you're right that it will adjust, but I'm not optimistic.

You’re too online, people who aren’t online don’t care about this stuff.

And if you tell me I’m a liar talk to someone who doesn’t have a twitter account, better yet talk to several of them. People don’t know or care about this stuff.

Have you used meetup to find people to talk to? You gotta get offline, it’s poison.

 

[GURPS]

yeah because THEY HAVE NO FUC KING CLUE what is happening in the culture war, that filters down TO EVERYTHING ELSE

what a loser, telling someone else how to live ....

Well you are completely wrong. I talk to people every single day who are only vaguely aware there is such a thing as Twitter, and they are very concerned about the violence and hateful rhetoric coming from the Left. And they aren't talking about some rando screen name; they are talking about Democrat politicians, Democrat TV news people, and Democrat entertainment figures.

You say *I* need to get offline, but your comments indicate it's you who needs to realize there's a whole world off the internet. Real people, not screen names.

 

[SamSpade]

The next time I hear that Trump is a “threat to Democracy “ - I want to know WHAT is the worst threat? Which thing will he do is the worst?

A link for what? That at 18 a person can legally buy/possess a long gun. That was established by the GCA. So the "quite a few Dems" you know only have bolt actions, lever actions or single-shot rifles? The type gun used was a semi-automatic and they are quite popular.

These young men, these kids who don’t fit, we’ve been seeing this pattern for decades. If we ignore it we are creating time bombs.

Don't fit what? And what is this "pattern" you're seeing? And what are you seeing that makes you think there is anything that "we" can do?

If Trump came up with some program to give these kids hope, like he did with parental leave for federal employees, that would be incredible. I truly believe Trump wants to be remembered as a positive force and put us in the right direction, he is in a unique position to tackle this crisis of these types of shootings by rouge young men against innocent people.

Unique position? I wonder why, since you say it has been going on for decades now, that you think Trump can do what no other President has been able to do to "tackle this crisis", whatever that means?
