America Is a Failed State

If you take a hard look at US collapse, you see a number of social pathologies on the rise. Not just any kind. Not even troubling, worrying, and dangerous ones. But strange and bizarre ones. Unique ones. Singular and gruesomely weird ones I’ve never really seen before

Seems like even when buck is totally wrong the butt-buddies try their best to find anyway to defend his bullshit.
Nazi's hate whites just as much as buck. That is all.

“America has had many school shootings. That statistic is alarming enough, which is more than anywhere else in the world, even Afghanistan or Iraq. The big question I want us to answer in this forum is - “Why are American kids killing each other? Why doesn’t their society care enough to intervene?”

Because those with gun-nut parents know full well kids are easy targets as gun nuts are in the extreme minority.



Because they like the idea of having guns to make them superior. It's all they have in their failed and miserable lives.

Powerful remarks, and no doubt heartfelt. But a study of global mass-shooting incidents from 2009 to 2015 by the Crime Prevention Research Center, headed by economist John Lott, shows the U.S. doesn't lead the world in mass shootings. In fact, it doesn't even make the top 10, when measured by death rate per million population from mass public shootings.

So who's tops? Surprisingly, Norway is, with an outlier mass shooting death rate of 1.888 per million (high no doubt because of the rifle assault by political extremist Anders Brevik that claimed 77 lives in 2011). No. 2 is Serbia, at just 0.381, followed by France at 0.347, Macedonia at 0.337, and Albania at 0.206. Slovakia, Finland, Belgium, and Czech Republic all follow. Then comes the U.S., at No. 11, with a death rate of 0.089.

That's not all. There were also 27% more casualties from 2009 to 2015 per mass shooting incident in the European Union than in the U.S.

"There were 16 cases where at least 15 people were killed," the study said. "Out of those cases, four were in the United States, two in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom."

"But the U.S. has a population four times greater than Germany's and five times the U.K.'s, so on a per-capita basis the U.S. ranks low in comparison — actually, those two countries would have had a frequency of attacks 1.96 (Germany) and 2.46 (UK) times higher."

Soon lol. I’m sure it’s not quite the same South of the border. View attachment 4182811 Also up here it is hard to find seasonal work for harvest season so they bring in help. The workers are IMO treated very unfairly for the work they do. The kids born here for the most part, don’t want to work on farms, or work at all for that matter, when mom and dad are supporting their life of leisure lol. I have no proof of my conclusion kids now are lazy but it sure seems like it lol.

Idiots like doughboy think that a $15 minimum wage spells economic disaster. It's $20 in Denmark.

Canada and Denmark seem to be doing just fine. HOW CAN THIS BE?

Your argument is called cherry picking.

Mass shootings as measured by number per million is OK if we aren't in the top ten? What kind of bullshit is that? Tell this to the kids at Parkland.

How could our founding fathers not see the clear risk to our representative democracy from Russian bought Facebook ads?
