Unzip and Attack posted:I think you should re-read the statement you quoted. No one is saying the alleged douchery of the murder victim in any way justifies the murder. What people are saying is that it establishes a potential motive for the killings. If you can't understand the difference there, then no one can help you. it's true, it's important that we really emphasize how high the heels were and how short the skirt was in order to establish the motive

Toshimo posted:I don't even get what you are arguing. We'll never know why Muslims kill people but it is clearly their problem and has nothing to do with the culture that encourages people to hate them. All these attacks happen in isolation and there is never a motive that implies that someone was wrong for having an opinion. All opinions and are equal and we should only hate the people who hate our freedoms. Who just so happen to be Muslim. Game, set, match.

Why did I not think of not listening to the dude yelling at me at my government job about how lovely ~my people~ were while everyone else just nodded along or looked away uncomfortably? Honestly, I'm p glad I'm a 18-35 white male right now so I don't have any problems, but man, it's pretty poo poo that people are just expected to sit there and take abuse non-stop from every angle and just lump it because how dare we tell people not to advocate hate speech.

The problem is that this is also what the abortion protesters outside of Planned Parenthood are saying. And then they go back to sticking a big picture of a miscarriage in front of your face and call you a whore for considering Planned Parenthood. This absolutely should have been handled through HR, and it is unequivocally unacceptable to become radicalized as a result, but if you are going day to day being harassed for your religion and you CAN NEVER GET AWAY from it because the people at Starbucks, at the mall, at the DMV, at work all do the same thing, it is possible to comprehend why someone would become angry and bitter about it. If fewer people harassed other people and acted generally lovely about these things, there would be far less of a pervasive reason to become angry and bitter in the first place.

Remember that scene in the first terminator where he has a huge shopping list of guns and the guy selling them just says "ok"? Yeah, it works like that.

Neither, the federal government can't track gun ownership until a crime is committed: quote:There is no national database of guns. Not of who owns them, how many are sold annually or even how many exist.

No, there is never a reason to radicalize and start killing people indiscriminately. It does a disservice to everyone who has affected change in non-violent means to say that violent extremists are just doing the same thing.

I really wish there was a cheat sheet for gun types, because I don't really see or handle any here (they are more or less banned in my area) The type of gun (once you get into the category of auto-loaders) is essentially a complete red herring. The deadliest shooting attack in U.S. history was carried out by one guy using handguns with small magazines. You also don't seem to know much about how people use firearms. Their attorney was somewhat impolitic but basically right- 4000 rounds of ammunition isn't actually an insane amount to own if you purchase in bulk to cut down on costs. If you go target shooting you'd be shocked at how many rounds a couple of people can burn through in an afternoon.

You're absolutely right, I have handled a gun exactly once in my life, which is why I was asking about it. The media made it sound like they had like insane amounts of weapons in their apartment, but since you actually shoot, is what they had or the types of guns they had in any way abnormal?

(I don't actually own any guns, I go shooting with friends like maybe once a year) And no, the types of guns they had were in no way abnormal. They had a handgun and a rifle each which is far from an arsenal and I would actually describe as below average for a gun owner (usually people have at least a .22 variant for plinking/a shotgun/a more traditional hunting rifle as well depending on their interests), and AR-style rifles are incredibly common and popular in the US for a variety of reasons (inexpensive, accurate, customizable, lightweight, familiar operation for those with military service). It turns out the features that make something a "good" gun are fairly universal, and everybody I know who shoots recreationally owns an AR (and I live in Portland, Oregon so most are not exactly right wing nutjobs).
