The problem is not being addressed at its source and it won't be as long as the status quo remains

What is the problem and what is the status quo?

Largely, neoliberal capitalism itself is my answer to both of these things

It's a myriad of problems caused by capitalist beliefs, anyways

The problem isn’t guns it’s a lack of bipartisan discussion on how to fix anything at all. Guns have always been here and aren’t going away. Something’s gotta be done though and I’m glad nobody on these forums have any real say haha.

Agreed. Forums would be a great way to share thoughts and opinions if people actually considered those thoughts and opinions. Even when a good solution is proposed you will always have people who can't adapt or just admit they are wrong or its a good idea.

if we all realized that skarne, something would be be done, because realizing that is all we need to do.

It's a discussion forum called off-topic and the thread is about an extremely current event. Why is just talking about it so offputting? I don't get it.

God forbid anyone have an opinion other than "Beep boop gun killed kiddos gun bads ban guns america bads."

I dont think were saying talking about things is off putting (though there are people here that think it is but screw them they can ignore), what skarne said is that we wont even effect it so basically he and I agree, we can say whatever we want becuase nothing we say here matters.

Id say what they talk about between rivalries on sports teams is more condusive to voilent acts because its usually jock and sports related bullying in school that creates these dark social cliques people have to escape to.

outlaw sports and well stop school shootings mark my words

By the way the red flag laws, and the internet privacy stuff that is being discussed if some of it passes im going to quit posting online. What we talk about here is full blown red flag law.

If I dont even feel comfortable speaking my mind online I think that's just one of the final acts of the end timse and I will be in colorado if you need me just meet up with me like in the stand.

Well it's not like I think anything we say here is going to change a law or something, but it's a discussion forum. I mean why discuss anything? Why do so many of us have thousands-long post counts?

I'm sitting on my ass eating a chicken sandwich talking about this cause I think it's an important topic and we kinda-sorta know one another a bit as far as internet strangers go and it's stimulating when people actually engage. Which does happen.

I can definitely be a crankypants sometimes though and I do say "like" way too much, I honestly can't help it.

What's the point of having a discussion if people won't be open to change or learning something new.

If we all had an open mind to others opinions and view points we'd be in a better place. Sadly we have people who rather trust fake information because it suits them better.
