yeah, more efficient than making a new one with all these shootings happeningSo is this just a general mass shooting thread now?
It's nice to see people finally acknowledge what I've been seeing for roughly ten years now. Everything going down the drain. I think it'll take a while though as we have to wait for the boomers to die off before the rot can (maybe) be dealt with.Her eyes are beginning to open and see through the shitlib veil. She will be expelled for wrongthink soon.
A Culture That Kills Its Children Has No Future
An America vacillating between violent struggle and idle nihilism is shuddering toward its end.www.theatlantic.com
They lost that sympathy when they decided to kill kids over their problems. They went from suffering to causing suffering real fucking quicklyI refuse to call these people losers. To me they are victims turned villains. A lot of people who end up being violent have suffered trauma that was never resolved. No human being in their right mind would do what they did. These people had issues and didn't get the help they needed. The trauma crystallizes and gives birth to these death pulsions.
In some it culminates in suicide: in others, in violence against others.
I feel bad for everyone involved, both the aggressor and the victims.
I have to disagree about this. In every single case Im aware of, the mass shooter is always a massive faggot. Just some examples:I refuse to call these people losers.

Sympathy is partly what inspires them to do what they do. They make it clear that they're asking for pity or help in their manifestos. They want people to think of them as martyrs of an unjust world.I never said it excused their behaviour. I would never condone such practices. However, I'm separating the murderer from the human. And it's a truth that all of these "faggots" clearly had some sort of trauma or lack of something in their upbringing. As I said, no one in their right mind would function like that.
Even behind the monster there is a human. And I want to acknowledge that human that has most likely been deprived of something they really, really needed.
The rot will stay until the second coming. All of this shit was predicted (passively and directly) thousands of years ago. The way of the modern world is a surprise to no one who's been paying attentionIt's nice to see people finally acknowledge what I've been seeing for roughly ten years now.

BTW there's rumors flying around that may or may not be chan bullshit that allege that BOTH shooters were in contact with a mysterious figure with the handle "Armand".Law enforcement officers are investigating whether a retired federal agent had about 30 minutes advance notice of a white supremacist's plans to murder Black people at a Buffalo supermarket, two law enforcement officials told The Buffalo News.
Authorities believe the former agent – believed to be from Texas – was one of at least six individuals who regularly communicated with accused gunman Payton Gendron in an online chat room where racist hatred was discussed, the two officials said.
The two law enforcement sources with direct knowledge of the investigation stated these individuals were invited by Gendron to read about his mass shooting plans and the target location about 30 minutes before Gendron killed 10 people at Tops Markets on Jefferson Avenue on May 14.
The News could not determine if the retired agent accepted the invitation.
Payton Gendron, 18, from outside Binghamton, appears at a felony hearing May 19 before Buffalo City Court Chief Judge Craig D. Hannah in the Erie County Courthouse.

"These were like-minded people who used this chat group to talk about their shared interests in racial hatred, replacement theory and hatred of anyone who is Jewish, a person of color or not of European ancestry," said one of the two law enforcement officials with close knowledge of the investigation. "What is especially upsetting is that these six people received advanced notice of the Buffalo shooting, about 30 minutes before it happened.
"The FBI has verified that none of these people called law enforcement to warn them about the shooting. The FBI database shows no advance tips from anyone that this shooting was about to happen."
Agents from the FBI are in the process of tracking down and interviewing the six people, including the retired agent, and attempting to determine if any of them should be charged as accomplices, the two sources with close knowledge of the probe told The Buffalo News.
The two sources did not identify the agent by name and could not confirm what federal agency he worked for.
The Buffalo FBI Office declined to comment on the investigation. The U.S. Attorney's Office in Buffalo declined through a spokeswoman to comment.
Buffalo civil rights attorney John V. Elmore said it will be outrageous if it turns out that a former law enforcement officer had advance notice of the shooting and did nothing to prevent it.
"If he had advance notice, he had a moral obligation to get on the phone and try to notify someone about it," said Elmore, who represents the family of Andre Mackniel, who was shot dead when he went to Tops to buy a birthday cake for his 3-year-old son.
Attorney Terrence M. Connors, who is representing several families who lost loved ones in the shooting, said: "As outrageous as this may sound, based upon what we are finding in our investigation, it is not surprising." He declined to reveal the evidence his law firm has collected.
The New York Times reported May 17 that Gendron invited a small group of people into a private chat room on the messaging platform Discord to review his plan about 30 minutes before the massacre at Tops. The Washington Post reported two days later that 15 people accepted Gendron's invitation into the Discord chat room and were able to review his plan and watch his live stream video as he committed the killings.
Federal authorities are investigating if the retired agent provided information to Gendron before he went on his shooting spree, the two law enforcement officials told The News.
In addition to law enforcement sources, two other individuals with knowledge of the mass shooting investigation have also confirmed that federal authorities are looking into the former agent's relationship to the shooter.
The Sandman
FBI agents are also trying to determine the identity of an individual Gendron calls "Sandman," and "Saint Sandman" in his lengthy social media diary that appeared on Discord 30 minutes before the attack, the sources said.
In the diary, Gendron indicates Sandman counseled him on manufacturers of AR-15 semi-automatic rifles and their quality. The shooter purchased and allegedly used that type of assault rifle in the rampage, which local authorities have said was fueled by his racial hatred.
In the document Gendron posted on Discord just prior to the shooting, he references Sandman three times.
In a passage dated May 2, he quoted Saint Sandman as saying: "When the time finally comes to deal decisively with a whole host of society's problems, and not go to prison for it, you'll know. Just be ready. You have spent your entire life, from the day you were born, right up to this very moment, reading this sentence, coming to where you are right now. Look around you. Are you content with where you are right now? Are you where you want to be? If so, continue to march. If not, what are you going to do? What's your plan? Get and keep your mind, body, and spirit right. Pray. Lift. Run. Read. Shoot. And teach your kids to do those things."
A third law enforcement source told The News they are aware of Gendron's writings involving the quality of different rifles. The shooter ended up using a Bushmaster X-15, a version of the AR-15 rifle, police have reported.
Staff reporter Caitlin Dewey contributed to this report.
I suspect foul play at hand, but I feel not to reveal mine so soon. There's no way he should've obtained all that shit at the ripe age of 18, least of all in 2022.Disgusting. This is a fucking atrocious act. Does the US dare find why this is a recurring theme, or do they scapegoat it yet again on guns again? Guns are the tools, but not the reasoning why this happens.
So are US "intelligence" agencies now mobilizing the mentally ill they groomed? They're wrong to think something as abstract as gun rights matter in a year where Americans can't afford to drive or eat.
The state of the current world breeds killers, brutality starts at home, but your surroundings and context still promotes a constant violent behaviour, everyone feels self entitled, everyone thinks they have the right to rule the world and walk all over the others, a killer is a killer for a reason, everyone has a reason to be, it's not destiny but mere conditons, barbarism starts at home, and mostly this kind of stuff happens because of a non treated mental sickness, may blame parents, or the environment they grew up, if you are bullied in highschool and you don't have support even from your parents, believe me it will ended up badly, doesn't help at all that the world is slowly becoming a plutocracy in which every man is by itself and only the strong survives, and the cycle continues because nobody wants to change anything, we are too comfortable about the state of our society that any kind of progress is vilified and any solution discarted, because it doesn't allign with the ideology of some few folks with power and their puppets.I refuse to call these people losers. To me they are victims turned villains. A lot of people who end up being violent have suffered trauma that was never resolved. No human being in their right mind would do what they did. These people had issues and didn't get the help they needed. The trauma crystallizes and gives birth to these death pulsions.

Love, understanding, respect, comprehension, faith, i agreed in this point a lot, because it's what i do believe the most in life, people seemed to lost any trait of empathy, so i guess the best thing to do is start doing our part, at least besides some dumb jokes i like to make because it's my way to light the mood, i feel genuine respect for everyone, and i preffer to treat everyone well no matter their condition or way of thinking, everyone deserves love and respect, a compliment can be the difference between a happy day or a mental breakdown, it's simple, but at the same time, everyone seems to struggle understanding this rule.Even behind the monster there is a human. And I want to acknowledge that human that has most likely been deprived of something they really, really needed.
Americans bring american problems to wherever they move. Holland has its own problems without americans adding to them.at this point i just want to move with my partner to a town in the netherlands and forgot about the entire world, or at least this place, like seirously, it seems nothing good has come from america recently.
Wait.... won't we be boomers by then?It's nice to see people finally acknowledge what I've been seeing for roughly ten years now. Everything going down the drain. I think it'll take a while though as we have to wait for the boomers to die off before the rot can (maybe) be dealt with.
