The Greenwood Mall shooting. The whole story is not out yet .. but as a nation we can praise the gun toting citizen who took out the shooter. Yet it amazes me.. the distraction of the event. in which three people died. and others wounded. the numerous patrons running and hiding in the mall.. The event is a man carrying a semi automatic rifle into a mall..who shot off more than twenty round before being taken out.. i can praise the man who took him out.. but I would prefer that someone carrying an automatic weapon into a public area could be shot on the spot. That's what would have prevented this..I can never balance out the lives saved.. to the lives lost. |

The solution is not citizens carrying guns.. It's preventing A citizen from carrying an automatic weapon in public. I don't blame the gun...It's not about the gun.. It's about what a military style weapon represents in a violent society. We as a nation, are removed from reality and truth. We lived in a fantasy of wealth, elitism, entitlement and Godliness..When that fantasy gets unfulfilled, we change to a fantasy of victim hood, persecution, hate, and most all Violence. America is the most violent civilized country in the world. It has been embedded by a fantasy that has been propagandized, glamorized and idealize about VIOLENCE. In most of the rest of world violence is not aggrandized. The reality of violence is well known And yet in America so it is.. when a citizen, carrying a gun...takes out a shooter, and praised for being a shooter himself.

This is very true. And most likely the shooter posted on social media what they intended to do. I just wish if they see someone posting stuff like that, they would investigate them before it gets to that point. Or even the reasoning for having a rifle like that. They also blame things on mental issues but, most ignore that thinking, " oh no, nobody I know " attitude. I'm sorry if I know someone who fascinates over this kind of things, I will open my mouth.

My example happened many years ago.. The effect of two shot down pilots in the middle east being strung up on a bridge, and those witnessing it cheered and celebrated.. The effect it had on me was chilling and made me hate those Muslims who were present.. If I was president I would have bombed them all for their lack of humanity But then on the day Osama Bin Laden was killed.... America cheered and celebrated in the streets.. and i knew America was in trouble.. Killing may be justified..but never celebrated. The two events were based on a perception and a justification..Yet the violence they represented were no different. The violence was never condemned but applauded as justifiable. The "Good Samaritan" in Greenwood becomes a hero.. and many others would like to find the justification to become a hero by killing somebody.. who they may think deserves it. Isn't that what a "Good Samaritan" does?

I saw it on this site over a decade ago.....I had never been on an international chat forum before and the glamorization of violence and especially of guns was very disturbing to me.....let alone the immediate defense of the attitude.....the normalization so deeply embedded in the culture that they didn't even recognize it .........Pointing it out has been seen as negativity and hate........

It is insane to carry a gun in public. The good samaritan in this case risked being shot by police or other good samaritans. Not everyone knows who the other is aiming at when the shooting starts and no one is going to walk up & ask if you are the bad guy. Rittenhouse was there trying to be a good Samaritan-------until the crowd got after him. Party On!

And the people who were running are now thinking how fortunate they are that someone had a gun and shot the bastard before he shot them with his remaining 75 bullets. That is the reality of the situation rather than what others wish to interject. Save the psycho BS. Party On!

It's seems abortion and the mall shooting dominate the conversation in Indiana.. we can assume they are unrelated... but there some minor evidence to the contrary Although there appears to be no sufficient evidence at this time...Sheet who needs evidence! Is it possibly related that the shooting at Greenwood mall...was aimed at Mexican !| in viewing footage after the event.. I saw a majority of white people and black people running around.. but I only heard about three dead mexicans.
