Indeed. He, she, it fought hard and spent a lot of time to compile this long thread on gun violence being a problem.

Lol. Guns aren’t the problem. Criminal losers are.

Wonderful demonstration of how ridiculous the pro gun argument is. You are a role model to all of us who believe that the way to fight extremism is through absurdity. Thank you for lighting the way. God bless.

Yes to all of that. I also want to see it become illegal to keep a gun in a vehicle overnight. In the first 5 months of this year, the Nashville police had reports of 625 guns stolen from vehicles. That`s just one city and only 5 months and only the guns that were reported stolen. Vehicles don`t have 2nd amendment rights.

Earlier you said it was an invisible right wing force that gave guns to those poor innocent murderers.

3 people shot at Kennywood. No comments? Maybe they've been deleted by our resident censor?

well if we have a resident censor hopefully the troll factor goes way down, but that aside, eyewitness accounts state the entry security was non existent.



when we first moved back we hit kennywood a number of times - even thot about season passes for the kids - until I realized, its not the kennywood I went to. not worth the cost in any fashion. when we did go, you were wanded and your food bags were searched. For the shooter to be armed, either he took a hell of a chance OR security dropped off and they know its been dropped off.





to gain extra $$ the parent company now does festival stuff like this - even long after rides are shut down and apparently the same 'element' of armed, roving gangs of kids that plague other areas in pittsburgh have spread here. it may be the case they have BEEN here for a while, but could not manufacture a reason to shoot. what happened? their train lost on the racer?



This is no different from the murder at the haunted hayride last fall by me - nowhere near pitt. So we have another place were risk outweighs reward or at least fun factor.



You want all racist overtones to leave the scene, but when the report is ALWAYS the same - black teen in a hoodie, oft with a mask, holding a gun he is not allowed to own let alone carry...in this 'see something say something' society...well....do the math. The targeted group of teens were from woodland hills it is being reported...we just played them friday, saw the band, and while people were getting shot watching their band at the PIMBA at yough. someone, somewhere, needs to clamp down. These constant shootings are the real existential risk to us.

what is there to say? is that any different from last year's murder at the Haunted Hills Hayride? Or the TWO fights at city high schools recently?
there have been people who have shot their way through elementary schools, churches, and synagogues.


based on what a witness gave to a local news station, it sounds like Kennywood is in deep trouble, because of the failure in security.

I am black and my aim is excellent. Most black folks especially the ones that I know have no need to fire into a crowd. The generalized blanket statements are idiotic. Imagine if I used blanket statements for white people? Get over yourself.
