While I'll concede banning books is not exactly the route to use in libraries,


I don't even accept that terminology. Libraries do not, have not and will not ever offer every book that's ever been printed. Using a little discretion to determine what books will and won't be available will happen by necessity at every library on the planet. If they choose not to carry "Anal Sex for Preschoolers" it doesn't mean the book's been banned, it just means that book is one of millions that won't be available at your public library.

According to the National Institute of Justice/The Violence project study,



Yeah, an absolutely garbage study that cherry-picked criteria to narrowly tailor the definition of mass shootings instead of the accepted FBI definition. Typical LWNJ dishonesty and of course it's blindly parroted by people like you who lack critical thinking skills and an IQ above room temperature...

I agree, but based on the book burning back in the day, we get beat up about it.
But its really a different issue. I agree those things don't need to be in a public library.

We could also probably use the money we are wasting on flooding our country with illegals. to instead use on mental health.

I don’t take any moral outrage from the left seriously especially after the amount of support Hamas is getting in this country.

The same people who will say they need therapy from the “violence” of micro aggressions are putting the Hamas parachute attackers on flyers and stickers and calling for Jews to be eradicated. And it’s all over almost every college campus in America, especially the liberal ones.

Apparently the suspect’s 15’ boat is missing.
US Coast Guard is searching the river in the area (where the boat was docked).
If waterways are in play, the guy likely has a decent head start on LE—assuming he isn’t already dead.

The real question should be, why do these mass shooters for the most part be known by authorities as being mentally unstable before they commit their acts of violence


This has been my argument every time. It gets purposely overlooked in the discussion and narrative. The majority of shooters have had run ins with the law, school officials, work, or a combination etc.

Family in some cases have also known of a problem or threats, and say nothing. Apparently this guy was under mental care currently.

This is the biggest issue and not the weapons of use. They will find a way to kill even if they didn't get illegal guns.

Recent scholarship traces the roots of southern violence to the Scots-Irish, who brought a relatively violent “cracker culture” with them to the United States in the eighteenth century. The tolerance for violence inherent in cracker culture was believed to be transmitted throughout the south to other whites and was maintained, in part, through evangelical Christian doctrine. Moreover, Thomas Sowell (2005) recently argued that some southern blacks were also influenced by “cracker culture,” leading to the emergence of a “black redneck” phenomenon influencing homicide among blacks. Using county-level data circa 2000, this study empirically evaluates the merit of the cracker culture/black redneck thesis.


You have so little idea of what you're talking about that your answer is nothing more than your attempt to pass off your copy/paste (read: plagiarizing) of this as your own original thought.

Come back when you can speak for yourself instead of hiding behind the words and works of others.

If the guy was any sort of naturalist or survivalist (no idea, just pontificating) then he's run off into the woods to play hide-n-seek with the authorities for as long as his provisions and skills hold out.

Either that or he's going to suck-start his weapon (which he should have just done from the beginning).
