Hence why I turned the omnipresence of mass shootings into a rule in a drinking game. And now that Trump's gone, I'm limited to that, police brutality, and maybe Trump actually being held legally accountable for his horseshit as a "drink the whole bottle" rule. And speaking of "drink the whole bottle" rules, it turns out there was another mass shooting same day as the Atlanta massage parlor shootings with four dead.

And it continues.

5 dead in New York.

Officer giving presser, "We are shocked" (implying that things like that never happen in that area)

I wish officials and reporters would stop saying shit like that.  Firearm violence happens everywhere because guns are everywhere. Mass shootings are simply one category of firearm violence, but that doesn't make a single firearm murder, or a single suicide any less dead. 

I live in a rural county, but even here I hear about firearm violence in my county on a weekly bases, even if it isn't a "mass shooting". Just last week in the next county over from me 3 people ended up dead over a shootout at a house party.

"STOP BEING SHOCKED AND START FUCKING CHANGING OUR LAWS".

You missed one. They have since identified the shooter as a former NFL player, Philip Adams.

FUCKITY FUCK FUCK FUCK!

I am sooo sick of seeing this in the news. I don't care who, or motive, or whatever. Our firearm epidemic is a public heath epidemic.

And then there's the correlation between multiple concussions and violent crime. I don't know the motives of Adams, but he sustained more than his fair share of injuries.

Okay - You posted a link to the SC shooting but said it was NY.  Which one of us is confused?

Sorry for the confusion, but it fucking happens so much the stories all seem the same.

There is lots of medical evidence that concussions can lead to more agressive behavior, and or depression. Jr Seau committed suicide, and medical experts point to his carreer and concussions.

Frankly, after reading about Aaron Hernandez, and how repeated concussions can lead to a brain damage that can make someone violent, and how someone who’s only a month or so older than I am can develop the brain of an advanced Alzheimer’s patient, the idea that he had CTE and that led to this would not surprise me. I probably should have guessed that at some point, it’d lead to an according to Hoyle mass murder, but somehow, I was surprised, especially after finding out the victims were a doctor who treated him and his family.

Changing laws is a non-starter unless you change gun culture first.
