People don't seem to understand what would be involved and why it's not feasible. Pretty much what the UK did after a couple of mass shootings. It worked and gun crime dropped through the floor. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wasabi Posted March 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2021 I am American. Some of my relatives ask me, "Is Thailand safe?" "I heard they have ladyboys prowling around at night!" "I see those protests on TV, looks dangerous." Yes there is some danger here but I feel way safer in Thailand under the threat of a ladyboy attack or angry students than facing disgruntled man with a gun of the week in the USA. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just waiting for the next one... So who will be the next one? After the quelling of the invasion of the Capitol many predicted (including myself) that the next phase of insurrection driven by Trump would be the lone gunman carrying out mass shootings on "the enemy". First they targeted "Chinea people" purveyors of Covid (all Asians are Chinea people according to the racist bigots who support Trump), now we have a line of people queuing up for the vaccine being targeted (by an anti vaxxer). Who's next? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're so afraid of guns then move to Japan or some rural community. Supporting the status quo is the immoral thing. Obviously anyone with a moral compass in need of recalibration wouldn't understand that. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCauto Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 8 hours ago, Berkshire said: At least 10 killed so far (https://www.yahoo.com/news/police-boulder-colorado-respond-reports-215736342.html). Of course we all want to know the motive. But even more importantly in this day and age, what was the race of the killer. This may have an impact on the outrage from certain quarters. To be fair, I didn't know the race of the killer until it was reported that he was in handcuffs being led away by police. Then I knew he was a White male. Bad day?
