Before they were rare so when they happened it was like OMG LETS DIG INTO THE MIND OF SOMEONE THAT WOULD DO THIS, THEIR MANIFESTO IS SO FASCINATING.

But now they happen every day so the shooters are getting less and less notoriety and are just another bullied incel or whatever.

Mass shootings are up but violence in general is down

I think a lot of it is social media, if you want to shoot people, why shoot 3 when you can shoot 30 and be plastered worldwide forever

Yeah. Also for the people who were in a shooting and survived and / or have lost a friend or loved one because of one, change couldn't come soon enough. Saying change will probably come eventually, let's just wait for that day isn't good enough.

have you never heard of the boyfriend loophole? i used the term 'girlfriend' instead of 'wife' for a reason.

here's a primer.

Yep. But no one will budge on gun laws and a potential ban. I own a firearm. Id turn it in in a heartbeat.

You're own link kind of disproves the loophole you're talking about.

Im still pissed off that when it was one of their own, when news reporters were murdered, we wont give the killer the satisfaction of revealing his identity, well focus on the victims

But as soon as the victims were normal people again, it was back to business as usual

Basically, get rid of social media for non-advertising or business purposes, and the mass shootings go way down.

no, it disproves the overly-broad statement klobuchar made

the loophole exists in federal law, and only some states have addressed it. it has definitely not been resolved for twenty years as was suggested.

i figured it would be better to provide a detailed primer that frames the issue fairly, rather than an oversimplified one that would lead to this point anyway.
