Mass shooting in the middle school Vladislav Ribnikar in Belgrade

This may come as a shock to you, but things are very often EXACTLY what they appear to be.

And morality isn’t necessarily a factor in gun violence.

I don't think things are usually exactly what they appear to be. The Earth appears to be a flat disk, but it really isn't. Airplanes seem to be mythological entities like dragons, but they are nevertheless real.

How could morality not be a factor in gun violence?

Look around you. Things that appear to be rocks generally are. If you see a big barky-leafy-woody thing sprouting up out of the ground, it’s usually a tree.

But I was referring specifically to your habit of doubting the bleeding obvious - the battle of Vukovar, school shootings, the idea that a retired cop could be prone to violence, and so on. Skepticism is all well and good, but carrying it to extremes makes you look like a fuckwit.

I said morality is not ‘necessarily’ a factor in gun violence. There are people who put bullets into other people with no moral consideration at all, and there are other who do so for what - to the shooters, at least - are highly moral reasons. It’s a wash.
