Unfortunately, I gotta study this stuff. It always boils down to crazy people killing unarmed people (duh). The caveat is that most of the time, these unarmed people have a lot of influence.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

What do you mean "these unarmed..."?
In death or before?

Mass shootings scare "normal people" because they usually happen where they hang out. Nobody cares about drug gang shootouts in the 'hood because nobody goes there.

Plus 1 Most people today do not value liberties or the ideals that this country was founded on. So any politician offering to make them feel safe even if an illusion, they eat it up.

That's because losing a gunfight is no guarantee of instant victimhood. Bringing your child to the gunfight doesn't automatically quality them either.

Look a Chitcago.
Given the size of the city and the areas with the majority of
the murders, it's a small area. And it's poor. And black.
No one cares.
Except the undertaker and the ghoulish politicians.
Dey be making bank off dat chit.

Look at Jackson MS.
On of the top in the country for deaths. Jackson proper.
Ever so often I’ll check the Jxn news.
Thursday night.
Top 3 stories.
1. Murder
2. Murder
3. Murder
Wanna guess the demographics involved?

That's a different dynamic.

the only reason there are mass murders is that the majority of people don't carry. I do every day even though I'm breaking the law.

That's a different dynamic. That’s true. But the numbers are lumped together.

If you work 40 hrs/wk: at 5% inflation and after 5 years, you need a 28% pay raise or to work 44 more hours (*one full extra week* per month+) to make up the difference.
This is inflation

Seems the mass shootings always take place in a "gun free zone". It's a shame to see what happens to these "victims" but they are the ones who allowed the gov't to ignore the 2nd amendment and disarm them. We need to turn their thinking around and put the blame for these shootings right smack where it belongs. On the shoulders of the gov't and liberal voters for ignoring/violating the 2nd amendment and turning citizens into easy, defenseless victims because that is exactly what they've done and who has done it.

They just need to be reminded who is the servant and who are their masters is all.
