After a year of quarantining and not being able to do shite, there will be a massive mental health crisis which will lead to shootings. Sad part is it will be framed under needing more gun control.

Umm, that’s the purpose of MK Ultra type tactics.

If the shooter were white we’d know that already right? The media wouldn’t be able to contain their joy.

Downvote away. For the record I do not support gun control. Just stating facts and figures.

We're on track for that many in less than 6 months into Bidens presidency. I'm not a conspiracy theorist but I can't help but wonder how strange it is how we're all the sudden having them so frequently.

I’m afraid you’re right. We were seeing a decline in mental health before Covid. There is clearly something rotten in our society that goes beyond guns. In the last year we’ve seen stress and political anger throw gasoline on the mental health fire of our country. Now that the country is opening back up, who knows what will happen.

Everyone on this board says this but there were 8 10+ fatality shootings (and an additional 5 5+ fatality shootings) while he was in office. I don’t understand it and I hate dems as much as the next guy.

That’s an average of three 5+ fatality shootings per year. We’ve had at least 3 in the last 3 weeks. At that rate there will be 200 such shootings in 4 years (vs. 13).

You’re correct there are two sides in this country. One wants to live their life as they see fit. The other wants to force you to live your life as they see fit.

I’ll let you figure out who’s who.

From about April 10th through April 20th(columbine) it seems like mass shootings happen at an increased rate.

They should come up with a name for that phenomenon. You know I’ve always wondered if the people who perform mass shootings would have been serial killers in a different day?

Damn, worker interviewed said one dude went to his car to get his gun to try to stop the shooter but got shot and killed. Shooter was an employee who supposedly was going after his boss but his boss wasn't there so he went ballistic, literally.

Are we suddenly having more mass shootings, or is the news suddenly reporting more and more to help the current administration’s agenda for gun control?

This is the issue. The shooters go to places they know where people will likely not have a gun to fight back. Places like work, schools , concerts, churches etc...Cowards.
