Moncton shooting

Post by Clarence »

Moncton is only an hour and half drive away from me.

Some guy up there went insane and is literally hunting cops. Killed 3 cops. City on lockdown. Killer still at large!

I read on the news this morning that they caught him.

It makes me wonder though, why are guns legal in Canada and the US? There was a shooting there yesterday too. In the UK, the most recent one was in 2010, and before that it would have been the school massacre in 1996. That's two. Yet we hear about them happening in America every year. There was Adam Lanza, Newtown, in 2012, Wade Page, Wisconsin, 2012, Jiverly Wong, NY, 2009, James Holmes, Colorado, 2012 (though will not be trialled until October), Kenneth McLendon, Alabama, 2009.

Why are guns so important in America?

Let me guess. When this is all said and done they're going to blame it on video games.

That and mental illness. You know that shooting the other week? The one with the guy who shot women because they wouldn't go out with him or something? People were blaming that on suspected autism, despite him having seen a psychiatrist and not been diagnosed.

in my opinion though I'd say that in the vast majority of cases, these people do have stuff mentally wrong with them and therefore they are mentally ill. don't get me wrong, of course you can't just blame an incident like that on autism, depression or anything else. rather, it's the person themselves and something that has gone horribly and tragically wrong in their brain. the problems these shooters have isn't something that can be labelled, it's just something terrible

While that is a possibility, there's a difference between assuming the problem and proving it.

While it is difficult to pinpoint one certain issue, is it clear that no sane person goes on a shooting spree. 100% of mass shootings have been committed by someone who is mentally ill.

Many people, perhaps all people, have thought about some kind of violence at one time. A thought is just a thought. Those who follow through lack some connection to other humans, to society, to reality.
