Over 50 people were killed in that Las Vegas shooting a few years back. Hundreds horribly injured, too.
By way of comparison, the whole UK figure for firearm homicides in FY20-21 was 35.
And another one
Sounds potentially related to organised criminal enterprise.

Half of those killed were at a mushroom farm, wonder if it was the magic variety. California has a huge cartel problem currently.
Why wouldn't a Chinese pensioner have been/be a potential criminal?

We’re up to 38 mass shootings in the US so far this year apparently.

2.5% of the population?
Would need to be 25,000 a day for them to take note and even then the hardcore would say it was worth it to keep their freeeedoms
I'm sorry you're right, your post shows you aren't a little regressive rightie whiner, but a massive regressive rightie whiner
"Waaah, waaah, waaah" what are you blithering on about. ITT not a single person mentioned anything about the race or creed of the perpetrator until one of the usual suspects tried to play the victim card the right love now, by saying how now it wasn't a white man it would be forgotten about, herp.
So I assume what you and the others are whittling on about is what some divs on twitter are saying? Oh dear, how sad. I thought you lot were all about freedom of speech and the right to say offensive stuff? Hmm? Oh that's right, as usual with your type you like to dish it but can't for one second take it.
As your post is a shining example of another common trait you all show, the absolute lack of any self awareness at all.
Hmm, who can remember the years, on this forum, whenever there was a mass attack reported the usual regressive righties would be on the thread immediately with "Religion of peace" "Dem muslims at it again" "bet it was the usual suspects" etc etc and when it turned out not to be, was there any backtrack, any apologies, any retractions? Nothing. They just spewed their hate without any repercussion.
And lets not forget, no-one ITT made any assumption on the perpertrator of this shooting, just discussed what another appaling tragedy had occured in the US due to their massive issue with guns.
So yea, my care cup is completely empty for your typical little regressive rightie whining.

Many people the USA hold their right to bear arms very dearly, and the US weapon manufacturers have keep their profits up.
Oh well, if literally hundreds of innocent people have to be brutally murdered to maintain this situation, so be it.
It's crazy.

The truth is that there are no sensible limits on weapons. The public can not be trusted with them and should not have them. Americans would never accept that. They are fiercly against their "rights" being eroded. Others would call it "being updated" but I am afraid that Americans are stuck in a rut. The funny thing is that the view that nothing should change is the mark of a declining power. America didn't become great by changing nothing.

If you asked Americans whether they think a mentally ill convicted felon should be allowed to own a bazooka they would say no, bar the odd loony.
So, they're in favour of arns control...

Even more madNot a mass shooting, but a 6 year old shot his teacher.

Absolutely mad.

This isn't on the same level, but just shows the complete disregard for safety of firearms the have in the US.

Kansas man dies after being shot by dog in truck, police say
Officers believe the accident to be hunting related, but it is still not clear who owned the truck or the dog, and who called emergency services.

Yeah, everyone has a complete disregard for firearms in the US because of an accidental discharge
Do they? Even worse than I thought. Surely some of them lock them up and don't leave them lying around loaded.
I know my firearms are safely under lock and key, with no chance of my dog shooting me here.
Accidents happen though, the country has millions of firearms, simply based on the law of averages there will be accidents involving firearms. You guys are such victims to click bait I swear.
