Not the worst mass shooting
In reply to Bigzinc
Interesting article for sure. Especially noting the murder of Black and Native Indians - which tends to "not count" for some of these folk that write headlines.
sadly though, this is the worst mass murder (shooting) by an individual. A stat I am not sure will last.
I've seen some headlines which add the qualifier "modern US history". I guess it still downplays the atrocities of prior centuries.
In reply to Tryangle
"by an individual" is the qualifier missing.

Yeah. Mind you I've seen some reports to suggest it wasn't 'just' him, but that could be the usual conspiracy theory people at work.
Although I didn't see the buzzwords "inside job" or "Illuminati" just yet.
In reply to Tryangle
Are you a believer in conspiracy theories and the illuminati?
In reply to Runs
you guys don't trivialize this stuff. Modern civilization was founded on the worst atrocities committed on non European populations.
talk about ethnic cleasing.
In reply to Tryangle
Please, I beg yuh... don't go there. America is fascinated with conspiracy as a means of not taking definitive ownership to a problem.
I beg uh please.
In reply to Tryangle
Even if it wasn't just him its still a mass shooting ..its the event ..like the Columbine boys etc..

Facts, figures and pragmatism are not criterias anymore.
In reply to pelon and Runs
Nah, not me. But you know how it goes... people will come up with, or find, anything that supports or promotes their own narrative.
Fake moon landings, flat-earthers, the whole thang.
In reply to Tryangle
Read an article that says it is useless arguing with them and using facts etc Supposedly the part of the brain that triggers anger, feelings of being threatened etc is the same part that is activated when one disagrees with their thinking and try to rationalize with facts. Useless, as they will not get it.
