news flash, guns are available to everyone in this country and mental illness and random acts of violence are not the exclusive domain of right wing nut jobs (would you like a recent list?)

this is a fairly mundane shooting for this country and no one was killed (other than the shooter)

weren't 8 people shot to death in Mississippi a few weeks ago

We have mass shooting events on an almost daily basis in this country.
Most are barely a blip on the news.  Some guy shot and killed 8 people in Mississippi at the end of May (two weeks ago)
Do you remember that one?

There was a shooting at a UPS facility in San Francisco this morning with 2 people killed

Yep, just another day in America

I'm not denying that shootings in the US are frequent. However, the attempted assassination of a politician isn't something that is frequent or mundane.

I have no interest in debating gun control but I do have a question.

Let's say you're at the mall. You hear shots. You look around the corner because you're a good armed citizen and you see 2 guys shooting at each other, one a mad gunman one a good armed citizen.

Who do you shoot?

I don't think it's as simple as you imply.

In my opinion, the argument that you need armed citizens to stop the bad guys is bullshit. I own quite a few guns, and unless it was life or death and the criminal is aiming his gun at me, I am not randomly shooting into a crowd. Anyone who has ever shot a hand gun can tell you that the accuracy is nowhere near that of a rifle. Shit, I shoot all the time and have a hard time hitting anything small beyond 30-40 feet. Throw in life or death situation and a quick draw, who knows what the fuck you hit.

I have weapons for home protection, fun, hunting, and just in case...the revolution ever comes...

Seriously though, guns are here to stay in the United States and idiots who own them and go on random shooting sprees is just something we will have to deal with, unfortunately.

Exactly. I have tons of guns. In both of my residences. Unless I know the situation, or am in imminent danger myself, I am not just going to go shooting someone.

A lot of this is red herring stuff though.

Odds are, if someone is randomly shooting everyone in the area, he's the only one, and you know he's the bad guy.

The opportunities for anyone to be the armed savior of a group of people are very very VERY small.

In my opinion, the argument that you need armed citizens to stop the bad guys is bullshit. I own quite a few guns, and unless it was life or death and the criminal is aiming his gun at me, I am not randomly shooting into a crowd. Anyone who has ever shot a hand gun can tell you that the accuracy is nowhere near that of a rifle. Shit, I shoot all the time and have a hard time hitting anything small beyond 30-40 feet. Throw in life or death situation and a quick draw, who knows what the fuck you hit.

I have weapons for home protection, fun, hunting, and just in case...the revolution ever comes...

Seriously though, guns are here to stay in the United States and idiots who own them and go on random shooting sprees is just something we will have to deal with, unfortunately.

I don't think anyone is suggesting that armed citizens should start "randomly shooting into a crowd". 

Also, modern handguns are plenty accurate.  Self defense shootings happen at very close distances anyway, you don't need a rifle.

Keep in mind that not everyone is like you.  There are a lot of people that are ready willing and able to defend their fellow citizens if some nut starts shooting at them.

The alternative is to be a sitting duck and not everyone is comfortable with that.  Average police response time is at least 10 to 15 minutes.

Only using the standard that 4 people is "mass".

Most are within the African American community.

All races in the USA commit violence at the same rate as Canadians for ion instance.  Canada doesn't have a huge black population to bring up the stats.

black people make up about 50% of the murder victims in this country (though only about 13% of the population)

black people do have the highest rate of poverty in this country and that may have something to do with the higher rate (as a percentage of population) gun deaths (though just a guess)

More of these mass shooter types are white men

I would also guess most of these mass shooter types have some kind of mental health issue

You have to be a sick fuck to shoot unarmed/innocent people

So the Ds overcame an early lead to win the annual Congressional game 11-2. Republicans had a few starters on the DL, though; injured at practice, it seems.

I have no interest in debating gun control but I do have a question.

Let's say you're at the mall. You hear shots. You look around the corner because you're a good armed citizen and you see 2 guys shooting at each other, one a mad gunman one a good armed citizen.

Who do you shoot?

I don't think it's as simple as you imply.

I don't shoot anyone - I pass my gun to (and then hide behind) _aj_  8)

Yeah, Straw! No more of this phony CNN bullshit, ok. Nothing but Facebook, InfoWars, and Onion from here on out - legit sources only.

(Of course, POTUS Twitter feed acceptable, too. Obviously.)

This is from your own apologist article:

"The statistics show that the 500 killings of white people attributed to blacks last year were the most since black perpetrators were determined to be responsible for the homicides of 504 white people nationwide in 2008. Last year's total was up 12 percent from the 446 recorded in 2014 and 22 percent from the 409 seen in 2013, a year that saw the lowest total this century and one that capped seven years of general declines in black-on-white homicides. Prior to that, 2006 saw the most black-on-white killings since 2001, with 573.


The 229 black lives taken by white killers last year, however, marked an even larger leap from 2014, jumping more than 22 percent from the 187 black victims killed by whites that year, which was the second-lowest total since 2001. The tally was last exceeded in 2008, when 230 blacks were slain by whites. The highest total in the last 15 years came in 2007, when 245 black people were killed by whites."

Considering that whites out number blacks by a 6 to 1 ratio in this country, you'd think that there would be more white people killing blacks, especially since we're such a racist country. I wonder who killed the rest of those black people who made up the the 50%?

What's funny about that article is that it tries so hard to put a silk hat on the pig that is black violence yet they actually let it slip that historically blacks always kill whites at a much higher rate than the other way around.

Most of these are workplace shootings. In order to commit these acts, you have to first have a workplace.
