Oh hey, someone asked about these events overlapping?

A lot of confused reports coming out from Community North hospital in Indianapolis about someone with a gun and / or a shooter there

Is there an event could happen that would lead to some kind of gun control legislation being implemented (even something relatively minor like mental health screening as part of background checks)? Or are we now 100% immune to any mass shooting event of any severity changing the status quo?
Sandy Hook happened and not a loving thing got done. Let me reiterate that: some crazy motherfrucker murdered children and not a goddamn thing happened. So no.

People are dead. We need time to heal. The real tragedy would be to politicize the deaths of these children in a ploy to enact Gun Control.

If it helps, it may not have had anything to do with disabled kids - apparently there was an outside group renting space at the facility today and that seems to be where the shooting took place.

This country is such a loving piece of poo poo sometimes.

I mean, this is the kind of loving poo poo that you'd think just about everyone would be up in arms (no pun intended) about asking their government to fix this bullshit. Stop making it so easy for fuckers to murder dozens of people every loving week or so. Do something. This is loving outrageous.

Well, some people were advocating for doubling down on bullet proof vests for students and concealed carry for adults, so there's that.

With all these shootings and and people helpless to do anything about it, you'd think we were in Burundi, not a country number one in GDP in the world.

Second degree assault and second degree riot charges. We've been talking about it in the Police Thread. It's still very much news where I live, but I happen to live in the city it happened in.

I've known people personally who, in hushed tones, wished for the death and purging of the mentally disabled for being a waste of resources. I can't say I'm surprised.

CNN had a breaking news banner saying police were being dispatched to vulnerable sites as a protective measure. Universities, Hospitals, Planned Parenthoods. Then it updated a few minutes later to remove the Planned Parenthood part.

Whelp, looks like the next large-scale shooting is in a San Bernadino social service office, possibly with three people doing the shooting, possibly with body armor. Or, you know, possibly not.

Every time this kind of thing pops up on my news feed, all I can think is "Man, I really gotta get off my rear end and get an AR while they're still cheap." Am I an inhuman monster?

In light of this tragedy we need to close the "states are located next to neighboring states" loophole.

For it to be a group of people (which lessens the probability of a disgruntled employee/ex patient) that attack an autism facility... the only that WOULD make sense is either:

a.) Actual ISIS or otherwise terrorists that are seeking to hit an extremely emotional and vulnerable target

b.) Idiots intending to hit a PP but got mixed up and his the wrong "medical facility."
