And just like that, the story went down the memory hole.
Sadly, one or two days is about the average longevity of a gun centered massacre these days. Nobody cares. These stories are an every day occurrence and we are benign to their horror. Meh. America wants its guns, and a few deaths, even of young school children, is not enough to get people thinking maybe there is a better way.

Uh...because there isn't a "better way". Mankind has always had hatred, wars, differences, arms...and that will never change.

Are you ready to ban everything which contributes to the death of children?
Who really needs a bathtub when children are less likely to die in a shower?
The United States is just a very violent country and that isn't going to change. There really is nothing that can be done, it is what it is.
Any solution won't change anything except confiscate more in taxes.
No "mental health" reform, gun control, adding police is going to change a thing.
The issue is there has been an irreversible moral collapse in America. The values that America the safe envy of the world in the 1950s are long gone and the country is a shell of it's former self.
Gun control just means that those are usually follow a regulation will not be able to protect themselves and others.
The rapid-rise in mass shootings is a combination of different societal conditions that have changed. A vastly increasing number of people feel very aliented, people who live to play video games that in many cases glorify violence, there is a very darwinistic and competitive component to American society.
There is no gun control measure that can prevent these occurances either. The nation is awash in guns and that is not going to change. Banning guns in certain places means that unstable people will ignore the ban while people who are well-trained and stable mentally can't protect themselves if they have a gun ban in a public place.
They can propose mental health reform but in case but there are a tremendous amount of very disturbed and desperate people out.
Video games also glorify violence and many people become entrenched in them and very unstable.

Most countries have violent video games, check out Japan and South Korea. Guess again.

The US has pockets of violent crime. Overall, violence has been falling.

We are all entitled to our opinion. It's party that but in general it is under the unbrella of the extreme moral rot in America that isn't going on in South Korea or Japan.
It can't be good that there are millions and millions of American men who are spending 40+ hours a week playing video games.
It's not the video games in moderation, it is that in America there is a tremendous amount of alienation. Millions of men in their 20s and 30s playing video games 40+ hours a week because of alienation and boredom is not a good for society.
There are many alienated people out there where that has become there life in America. I have read articles that people play video games on streams for 24+ hours.
Japan and South Korea while I am haven't been there are likely morally different. They don't have a terminal stage 4 moral cancer like America does.
That was the same group that was harassing and verbally threatening the Trump supporting high school kids in DC last year. They moved away and then got harassed by that jerk native american who then lied about his being harassed by them. Those kids were lucky they weren't shot.

no wonder jojo -the OP - is AWOL.
