they really are. Since "regular" is a vague term, I'll win this regardless.

Solar eclipses are regular occurrences too. School shootings are more regular, just not predictable.

But gun control talk dies less than a week later and really no new information has come out since.



I remember reading on social media (either posted on another site or commented here) that since it was a country music concert they were most likely Republicans, so they got what they deserved. I can't imagine the disgusting human being with that train of thought.

A child is 1000x more likely to die in a car accident than a school shooting.

We agree, my friend. But your stat is irrelevant to the point.

So much to feed conspiracy. It’s crazy. Whatever happened to the security guard? He did the Ellen interview and that was it?

Not many people talking to those victims families either. He did it for some reason so ridiculous that nobody wants it out there?

that Vegas shooting is WEIRD


I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but this. The sheer carnage of it all, and how quickly it was swept under the rug.

Yep - CIA false flag crap with multiple shooters. Getting difficult to believe much that is on TV or in the internet

School shootings are, unfortunately, a regular occurrence.


Not really at all. There are over 100,000 schools (elementary and secondary combined), but we will use an even number for this. Per Toddy on Fox, there have been 25 mass shootings since Columbine. This tells us you have a 0.025% of being at a school during a shooting and then the number drops from there to be an actual victim.

For reference - If you are an unborn child, you have roughly 15% chance of being killed by your Mom not wanting you.

Every school shooting is a one-off. Every one has been perpetrated by a different individual.

Las Vegas disappeared because a bunch of white conservatives got killed. The folks at CNN were too afraid they'd accidentally start celebrating all the deaths on-air and give their true feelings away.

Our government wouldn't lie to us? Would they?

In regards to media coverage:

-58 country rednecks were slaughtered in a state Hillary won

vs

-17 children died in an equally similar evil manner in a state Trump won


In the capacity to sensationalize a narrative to push a leftist agenda, one clearly lends more fuel to the fire. Of course, lets disregard the notion that all of these cases are carried out by vile, evil less-than-human garbage. As a political vehicle, there are apparent varying subjective levels of evil. We must sit and wait for the morally superior left to tell us what that is, the state is all-knowing, all powerful.

No, it's not at all. Vegas was a far deadlier incident with more "scary" weaponry yet the story disappeared within days.

Best explanation Ive heard that makes sense in the Saudi power struggle that spilled over into a mass shooting.


That has to be it, otherwise we are left with just a unstable person with some money that legally bought a bunch of guns and killed a bunch of people for some personal reason that he took with him to the grave.

I mean, it's not like there's even an "official story" for it beyond, yeah, this guy basically just murdered the most people anyone ever has in this country outside of 9/11 and that's that.

It's so fricking bizarre.

I've given you conspiracy theorists a chance on this one, but I just don't buy it. Las Vegas was a one off.. a guy converted a high-rise hotel suite into a friggin' machine gun embankment to wipe out a concert.


It is no different from the JFK assignation, people need complex conspiracy theories because they do not want to believe that a single ordinary person can decide to kill the POTUS, or dozens of people at a concert and actually do it.
