Will a candle light vigil stop the next shooting or will it make a bunch of touchy-feely people feel like they done something special? Last edited by elkhunternm; 10/02/15.

I'm more concerned with what the hell is bringing all this craziness out in folks than giving in to the herd instinct, which always occasions this kind of tragedy. I'm sure it's pretty devastating to have this happen at your back door to people you knew. Unfortunately, there is no going back. The horse has left the barn and school shootings have become common place. Isn't much fun to sit here and watch the steady degeneration of our culture. A prayer for it to stop certainly doesn't hurt anyone. Last edited by JohnMoses; 10/02/15.

First, "mass" shootings aren't any more prevalent than at any time over the last 50 years. A slight drop in workplace and mass domestic shootings, a slight uptick on "I'm gonna be famous!" gun free zone shootings. Second... it's almost always about the fame. This guy flat out said on social media that the only way he's ever going to be famous is to do this. It ain't rocket science.

They seem like such an empty, worthless act. Funny you said that...at elk camp this year the subject somehow came up and I guess I got a bit vocal in my opinion of these things, much to my camp mates amusement.I thought I presented a rational and articulate argument, they said I lost my sh#t and went on a rant. Suppose maybe a bit of both is true...so no, you are not alone

I know damn well there has been an incredible increase in mass school shootings over the last 50 years. Here is an FBI report that shows a drastic increase in school shootings just since 2000. FBI- Increase in School Shootings And if you can figure out a way to keep the media from reporting it, so as to deny the shooter the fame he seeks, you are a rocket scientist.

I think it was he that said they had professional grief councilors and stuff on their way to talk to the people. I still don't know how they would help me in a similar situation.

FBI- Increase in School Shootings And if you can figure out a way to keep the media from reporting it, so as to deny the shooter the fame he seeks, you are a rocket scientist. That report is basically propaganda - it has nothing to do with mass shootings. It creates a new "statistic" called "Active Shooter Incidents" which is the only way the DOJ could push the agenda of "shootings are happening so much more often!!!!!". From the report itself: Quote This is not a study of mass killings or mass shootings, but rather a study of a specific type of shooting situation law enforcement and the public may face. Read this: http://nypost.com/2014/10/12/the-fbis-bogus-report-on-mass-shootings/ Quote The picture looks quite different if you use good data and a longer time period. Back in 2000, Bill Landes of the University of Chicago and I gathered data on mass public shootings from 1977 to 1999; I’ve now updated the database. Our criteria were similar to what the FBI said it would follow: non-gang attacks in public places. Shootings that were also part of some other crime, such as a robbery, were also excluded. But we counted cases where at least two people had been murdered in these public shootings. Overall, there has been a slight increase in deaths from mass public shootings over these 38 years, but even then the upward trend largely depends on the single year 2012, when there were 91 deaths.
