I wonder when american mass shootings will stop being front page news. Treated more like a car crash or something. minor local news. The US as a country has obviously decided that this is acceptable and i assume it should be treated as such.
As an outsider it’s fucking bizarre to witness.
No, Republican politicians and a minority of voters have decided it's acceptable, and because of our convoluted and poorly designed political system, the rest of us are forced to put up with it.
Indeed. Gun control is actually extremely popular if you just look at polling.
Oh it's already covered in the same breath as the real housewives drama from my SO. It's barely cared about. I don't think anyone actually even feels sad about anymore except for some of the families involved. Just another day in the life of the greatest dream.
Anger has replaced any sense of sadness and people are running out of anger too. Apathy. Self indulgent apathy is all we will have left. And fear that someone might take away their nice things. A country of children parading as adults as children die... How could you not look at it and weep.
Like the school shooting dinner table discussion in South Park. Spoilers -- Stan's mom flips out over the local school shooting, and Stan's dad asks her if she's overreacting because she's on her period.
I'd link it, but I'm on mobile.
Thank you very much for that!
I feel like it's barely front page news as it is. Like this is the only thing I'm seeing about this shooting. Last night on TikTok I found out about a shooting at a bar, what's the deadliest shooting in Maine to date. Happened on Oct 25th. I found out about it yesterday. 18 people killed, 13 injured. Still took me that long to see anything about it. Back when the Sandy Hook hooting happened, it was all over in minutes, and we didn't stop hearing about it for months. Now we might not hear about it at all.
