Total Deaths Caused by the Top 20 Mass Shootings in US History.

the new founding fathers has banned class 4 weapons.

If they weren't reported there would be less of them, people see how much publicity and "fame" the shooters get so they want to be remembered and they go do it themselves,

the more you advertise something the more people will do it

We have a new policy at work regarding mental health, they are constantly talking about depression and bi polar on the work website, as such more people read it and think "hey thats me, I will have 6 months off with full pay if I say im depressed"

the more you talk about something the more it happens...

That isn't really practical though. Information gets passed on very quickly in the internet age and keeping facts hidden will further increase conspiracy theories. Even with this recent shooting, there were still false news being spread as to who the shooter was. Imagine how bad that would become if his identity was being kept secret.

so should you own a bazooka? LAWS Rocket? I don't think anyone is seriously interested in divesting you of handguns or hunting rifles, at least I'm not and most people who are advocating gun control aren't. You're 2nd amendment is not in danger, its what is reasonable to own is what is being discussed,   agreed?

You're hopelessly clueless. They antigun factions knows full well that only 2.2% of gun violence is perpetrated with rifles ( an AR15 is a subset of rifles ) yet they are pushing heavily to get them " banned " and entertaining that do , when it has absolutely NO effect whatsoever , they'll move on to the " real " problem , pistols.

The second amendment is in danger and is under constant attack , you're an outsider looking in , there have been a 100 years of compromises and more and more laws ( over 50K last estimate ) Law abiding citizens are fucking fed up with being punished for the actions of criminals , it's immoral to punish the wrong people.

AR15 is a red herring , it's all bullshit that the mass media flames people into a frenzy with and you feel for it. You're more likely to be beaten to death with hands & feet than ever get shot with an AR , you're 3 times more likely to be stabbed to death than ever being shot with an AR.

The biggest problem with this whole " debate " is ignorance & perspective.

Wait, so the USA is becoming increasingly more violent as rafts of non-White people are being imported into the USA by the millions each year?

Wow.  NO SHIT?  Really?  You don't say?  Who could have predicted that one?  

So importing millions of people from third world shitholes with the highest rates of rape and violence in the world has resulted in a subsequent political disaster and diversity has DIVIDED people into separate armed camps, and more examples of people going postal are taking place?

Yep, no one saw that one coming. 

I'm referring to mass shooters and not overall crime. The concept of going into a crowded location and randomly gunning down as many people as possible is mostly a white American problem. Even Jared Taylor acknowledges that such atrocities are more commonly committed by whites.

I don't actually blame guns and view it as more of a societal issue linked to the decline of collectivism and the rise of current age nihilism/loneliness. However, due to the increase of such societal failures, America will continue to be plagued with such events - especially when access to firearms is so easy.

Yeah, because supporting gun rights is a popular mainstream opinion. 

Are you nuts?    Where I live, probably 80% of all citizens are against guns!  I live in lily-White Canada, where people are too stupid to understand that American conservative/capitalist principles are what ALLOWS Canadian liberalism to exist in the first place!  All of what we buy here comes from American corporations for crying out loud!

And no, I don't own a gun - I live in Canada where police can come to your house at any time if you are a gun owner.  More or less.  The gun laws here suck.  And Canadians are too stupid to realize that the reason why Canada is a SAFER country than the USA is because we are a WHITER country.

More White people per-capita = safer country to live in.

More Black and Hispanic people per-capita = more violence in that country.

More hey, screw the facts right? 

tl;dr

[BBSSchlemiel]

Yep!  Exactly - Hitler promoted gun ownership.  He increased gun rights in Germany, not the opposite.  But he was a dictator very much in demand, so he didn't need to disarm his citizens.  He knew that his citizens wanted him in power.  Unlike the USSR [Jewish proxy state, administered disproportionately by Jewish Bolsheviks.  I think Jews made up something like 30% of all people in positions of leadership in the USSR, despite being under 1% of its population, but you would have to check Wiki to confirm that 30% figure].

Great post, BBSSchlemiel. 

Seventy-five percent of the commissars were Jewish under Stalin.

hahahaha   only in America would someone need a cannon for home use.

Fucks sake....

To be fair, he said during the Civil War. It was different then, and many men of a certain class in many nations privately owned such things.

You can certainly buy working cannon in the States now, but no one at all buys them for home/self defense. Most are bought by Revolutionary War or Civil War reenactors, and used as signal cannons, etc.....

Edit - I just checked Cannons are legal in Canada, and the laws governing them are similar to the US. Legal in England too, under a shotgun permit.

Would the total deaths due to home invasions not related to drug or gang activity i.e. the victims weren't drug dealers getting ripped off warrant owning a gun for home defense? If the number of deaths from mass shootings is so insignificant as to not warrant any action, maybe the reverse is true

Boy you just keep digging yourself deeper

Interesting vague comment. Doesn't refute anything but the eye roll was powerful

What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof 

And I loved how you glossed right over my entire response to your bullshit in the previous post . Kid you're in WAY over your head on this subject , stop before you embarrass yourself even further.

lets try to be creative here guys

how about dogs in schools who can sniff out ammo and then bark and warn everybody

[Al Doggity]

The focus of this post is MASS SHOOTINGS because MASS SHOOTINGS are the events that are predominantly used by politicians and the Jewish/leftist media to disarm American citizens.  MY POINT is that mass shootings cause FUCK ALL in terms of deaths in the grand scheme of things.

MORE PEOPLE DIE EVERY THREE YEARS OF ANAPHYLACTIC SHOCK DUE TO PEANUTS FOR F*CK'S SAKE.

So if 433 deaths in 68 years scares you soooo much, then why aren't you banning peanuts, which killed over 10,000 people in the same time frame?

Seriously, if 433 deaths caused by something is cause to ban something, then an argument could be made to ban just about EVERYTHING.

It's impressive that you managed to miss the point of my post so thoroughly. You are way off base here.

You are taking a portion of shootings, dividing the death toll  by an arbitrary amount of years and, for some unknown reason, claiming that is the extent of the problem. In your opening post you said that 7 deaths per year is no big deal. There aren't seven deaths per year. It's still february and there have already been more than 7 deaths this year. There were hundreds of deaths and injuries last year and the year before and the year before that. Your 7 deaths figure is based on you pulling an arbitrary figure out of your ass and then dividing it by an arbitrary figure. Every year of the last decade has had far more than 7 deaths from mass shootings, not to mention the injuries.  

It would be like me taking  the combined wealth of the twenty richest people in america, dividing that figure by 20 and then claiming that everyone in america was a billionaire. For an alleged math whiz, your math skills are a joke.
