@Samaritan - Mass shootings haven't become more common in recent years. Far right violence is actually way down from the 1990s. But people wouldn't know that, just like they didn't realize crime rates were down in the late 1990s because the TV kept screaming about the latest homicide.

@Arthur Grayborn even though that there's studies and reports showing that all politically charged and motivated murders in, i think it was 2017 or 2018, were committed by rightwingers?

try to make it look legit, but it's lying

I despise the dishonesty

well tell me

why would the left even want to commit political murders

@smiley - Are you talking about the study where the author refused to share his methodology, and other people looking at it were able to find a fuckload of mass shootings he missed in places like India and fucking Norway?

they have nothing to gain

kill trump? okay.

then you just get PENCE

ZAP THE TRAPS PENCE

I don't think thats true

the regular news sites don't even go that far

These are objectively more polarised times

@Arthur Grayborn the adl one?

@Samaritan the crime back then wasnt political

because i haven't heard about that

more gang oriented, really

Did the Epstein island include traps as well

or just individuals stealing or w/e

in a lot of the ones I've looked at they mess with the categores so that any non-left left shooters are all on the right

That's the real question

there are other categories as well

That's the thing the media is like HURR DUURR there has been 250 mass shootings this year on the news the other night

yep

They are all gang shootings

sometimes they don't even report the gang shootings 😄

they include the gang shootings because when you say "mass shooting"

what comes to mind?

a gang-banger fight

or a school shooter

@Arthur Grayborn why would it matter about india and norway, the report was about the US

There hasn't been 250 fucking school shootings but that's what they are insinuating in the same vein as calling ice camps concentration camps

^

seriously, they will lie to make the democrat cities look better too

@smiley - This is what I was thinking of:

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/aug/29/john-lott-jr-adam-lankford-botched-study-claiming-/

theres been a much smaller handful

There has been like 14 this year no?

and a ton of gang violence

but thats as always

that's not what i'm thinking of
