New Orleans Mothers day parade shooting.

[microphone head]

Shit - just heard about the shooting over there. That's fucking shit.

12 shot, including 10yo child during Mother?s Day parade in New Orleans ? RT USA

Yet more gun control arguments for you to deal with I guess.

Hope you chaps are all good and none of your friends or family are there / hurt. (Yeah I know it's a big country with a large population etc. but still...)

Endless debate and guns will be here to stay.

I mean, c'mon... IT'S FUCKING MOTHER'S DAY. Can't people give domestic terrorism a rest for one fucking day?

Ummm... Why is this only being reported on RT & BBC???

WTF? Here's the small BBC mention: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-22506029

...But it's been hours and no american media is touching this yet!

It's not - they seemed to be one of the first though.

As many as 12 inured in shooting at New Orleans Mother's Day parade | Fox News

lukepee, I saw it on Yahoo news 12 minutes after it happened. But that might have been aggregated...I don't know

So is the issue not enough guns or too many?

 

[cpauser]

it's not that gun violence is more common, but the media is giving heightened attention to it in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre

Yup, gun violence has been going down for the last 20 years but that doesn't fit the narrative the media wants to push.

I saw a FB page memorializing the victims before it happened.

Tinfoil faggots, get in here.

They were black people. Everyone knows in the media;
1 white = 17 black americans = 500 foreign brown people

So this is the equivalent of one white person killing another one. (notice I said in the media, I don't agree with it, just stating my observations as to how the media values human life)

I resemble that comment.

Too much diversity.

I just want to find some quite isolated corner of New Zealand and live out my days as the world burns itself to the ground.

People keep thinking the guns are the problem.

It's that there's too many people getting guns that are in no mental/emotional state to have them. Murika, land of the feels.

A reason for Part of the difference is that the Switzerland doesn't have many Blacks (Africans) in their country. In the United States Black Males make up 6% of the population but are involved in 53% of the homicides involving guns.

For supposedly making a living on the Internet, you really suck at Internet-ing
