Not just America mate.

The Western world seems to think it has the right to preach about how other countries should live their lives!!!

This coming from a society that is so screwed up it has record mental health issues in its younger generation and has problems telling you what a woman is!!

 

🤡🤡🤡

Very true. The thing is countries are starting to turn away from the west. In the not too distant future I see a time when the influence we have will be gone.

Anything and everything is now a problem for the permanently outraged in the West. We are creating a society of absolute wet wipes.

 

They will not be happy until the rest of us are as miserable as they are.

You are arguing in post #1353,  against your own post #1351,     and yet, your original post was  completely right.

So busy trying to blame somebody else for everything that's wrong, that you don't even know what you're saying.

The Western World, includes the useless government you voted in 13 years ago and have  defended against  everybody slightly left of you ever since.

Apparently, according to the 'i' newspaper, the shooting in Alabama last Saturday was the 148th mass U.S. shooting this year. 

 

So far this year, 12,237 people have been killed, of which 509 are children & teenagers.

Which begs the obvious question, who's in charge, while the mayhem  on the American streets is increasing?

 

Who, if any, will face prosecution?

Unsurprisingly, it's not as simple as your cherry picked example suggests - Higher rates of mass shootings in US states with more relaxed gun control laws.

 

Of course, US gun control laws are largely a state, rather than federal, matter. Guess which party is typically in control of those states with more relaxed gun control laws? Hint: It's the one that consistently votes against gun control laws at a federal level.

Perhaps that should be the Russian funded, firearm banning from its events, NRA.

It doesn't seem to matter which U.S. Party has its President in power nothing appears to change.  Biden is wringing his hands at another mass shooting but he could do something about it it.  He could issue an executive order, tightening up the U.S. gun laws, banning private ownership of such things as assault rifles.   But as ever, it appears that it's more important for the U.S. parties to try & retain power than protect the majority of their electorate. 

 

Let's face it, the Americans could still have hand guns for personal protection & shot guns for farmers & sport.   The likes of assault rifles were only really developed for military use & their only purpose is to inflict mass casualties.

Busy day in the US today

 

National Rifle Association's annual meeting in Indianapolis.

 

At least four people have been killed in a mass shooting in the US state of Alabama at a 16th Birthday party

 

The Alabama incident follows a shooting on the same day at a park in Louisville, Kentucky, in which two people were killed and another four injured

 

Almost 150 mass shootings this year

You forgot the 2 yr old girl who got a few guns from her gran the governer.  And they claim that american gun culture is not out of control!!!!

see youre anti democrat politricking again as usual, theres always around 300 - 400 mass shootings a year no matter which side the president is on, some people have tried saying its normally on democrat run streets, but alabama is republican run, and has recently relaxed gun rules.
