how do you equate this to the NRA? That’s ridiculous. Why not say “another violent shooting in the gangster culture of America?” It’s such a strange assumption
how many shootings are carried out by NRA members? How many dollars did these individuals donate to the NRA?
way to pivot and not address the real problem case by case

What I want to know is: who organized this, and for what purpose?
It is the stereotype of a Mafia hit, minus an apparent target. It was a disciplined, rehearsed squad action.
I wanna know who set it up, where did they recruit and train the squad, was there a target person? If not, why gun down a poorly-consolidated crowd of randoms?
If this was not organized crime in the usual sense, it was political. A strike at an extraordinarily ordinary bit of city life. Sponsor? Motive? Expected outcome?

Is this a self portrait of you refusing to think?

if you mean refusing to assume a shooting is somehow politically motivated considering the vast majority are not, and there are no details or indicators about the motive available to assume something so rare - correct.

That sucks, did you try when it was known this was coming down the pipe? I think it’s a good thing and long over due, glad I never felt the need or desire to buy a hand gun.

Hoops to jump through to export guns to the US,
I heard about the assult styled ban but not about the handguns. I used to belong to a shooting club but quit when I had a permanent hand injury so I have not been up on what the government was up to.

So why not start a thread on drug overdoses? What does it have to do with mass shootings?
