Current Affairs The " another shooting in America " thread

[verreauxi]

There was an active-shooter situation at a college (Bridgewater College) about 20 minutes from where I teach. Not sure of the details, but I want to take this time to say that we are much safer in the USA if we ban books on the Holocaust than if we ban assault weapons (DERP).

This is why gun ownership is completely absurd, anyone could have been killed by this beep with his aim or lack there of.

Terrifying. Surely he'll be put away for at least a decade or two? You can't shoot if you 'think' you're getting shot at. lol

Actually, watching the clip, he's not facing any charges or is he?!

How on earth can a judge allow him out on bail is absolutely beyond me.

Doesn't the video say he's facing felony charges? The water bottle hitting his car might have caused him to act, but he'd already drawn his pistol.

That'll be hard to explain in terms of whether it was self-defence or pre-mediated, surely. But then in America you never know.

I don’t even buy that excuse. You can hear the water bottle hit the car, but prior to that he was already drawing his gun up to aim at the car as it pulled alongside him. What an absolute lunatic.

Never thought I’d be calling for this but we really need a new set of McCarthy trials; everything we have seen since the Russians invaded screams “a lot of the prominente on the US right are traitors”.
