Hispanic isn't a race, it doesn't even exist outside the US, he IS white.

Its obviously not the same guy.

I think the Russians trolls got you again.
The funny part is people posted this picture with pictures of the real shooter who is skinnier, with red hair and a color of eyes I haven’t seen in my life directly under their post.
Honestly the shooter to me looks like a mass murderer just with his eyes and his red hair, I never understood the “gingers have no feelings” movement till now.

He is obviously white. Are you denying this?

NO school in the US should have armed guards! That is horrendous, the US is supposed to be a first world country not a bloody war zone.

100% correct.
They investigate the crime AFTER the fact. They cannot protect you from crime. Even the officer interviewed on camera yesterday said the exact same thing. They cannot roll a SWAT or Tactical Unit fast enough to eliminate or reduce the carnage, almost all of which is committed within the first 5 minutes of the attack.

Common Sense Gun Control? Explain in detail what that would be. When I was growing up, 70-80's we had guns in our trucks at school. No issues.
I think the biggest problem is the elephant in the room. Family. It starts there. No father, Mom has allot on the table to raise kids by herself. I.E. The early 1900 to 1960's showed the fallout of fathers leaving families to where boys ended up being raised a life in gangs. Hell Kitchen for example, etc etc.
Church. Yes, a Moral house to show kids right from wrong.. Laugh all you want, but its something positive if a kid grows up knowing right from wrong, remorse, guilt etc when he/she does something wrong.
One last thing, this was nothing more than a tantrum by a 19 year old. He didn't get his way, so he used a tool to kill as many as he could. Solves nothing.
I bet he is the kid who threw a tantrum in the check out line cause he couldn't get his candy. Mom caved and gave in because she was embarrassed. I am sure you all know this type of kid.
Flame on.....

You realize it is not the same event? The Ft Lauderdale airport shooter actually was a white hispanic.

Look at it from a top down perspective. How many wars and for how long has the fed guv been engaged in? The military is glorified no matter how many innocent people it kills minding their own business in their own countries. People are desensitized to the violence and actually cheer it on ( at least where the military is concerned). Yes Im putting much of the blame at the feet of the violent gang that has taken over the country with its wars on peaceful people both at home and abroad.
Its not going to stop until it all collapses. America and americans are too far gone.

Canada sees the same movies as the USA and doesn't have the same problem with mass shootings. Sure sure there are incidents -- but the percentage of gun homicides is nothing compared to the USA.
Millions and millions have guns but don't go on shooting rampages. Hollywood promotes violence and sexual perversion to the lowest degree.
