    Pathetic.

    I am sure he would have killed more than 10 if he had knives or machetes instead of stupid guns

    Prayers to the victims. RIP.

    No, you're not listening! The community college needed to be totally armed and militarized so they could have all defended themselves!

    The sad thing is, as frequent as mass shootings in this country have become... this will all be forgotten in a couple of weeks, max.

    Three days of each side of American politics spewing out their "solutions" followed by complete inaction and then a long stretch of silence before another group of Americans are murdered senselessly and we start the whole process over again.

    Yes, but the question is why?

    Gun control is the knee jerk response (somewhat understandable) but this country has had the 2nd amendment and a gun society since it's inception. The guns aren't the new element. So what is? What is different in the last several decades?

    Cue the faux outrage, but oblivious to the symptom. Get your cafe latte drinking ,skinny jeans wearing, critical mass loving ass to D&D.

    It's sad that we treat this as a hurricane or some other act of God that we could never prevent.

    We can.

    But we won't.

    "I choose 'Media Narratives' for $300 Trebek."

    Trebek, "Mass shooting in Oregon with a predominately white community".

    Marky, "What is a white guy with mental health issues?"

    Sad that even after so many shooting events (i.e., Columbine / Virginia Tech / Aurora / Sandy Hook / Charleston / the live shooting on TV in Virginia to name a few) nothing ever changes.

    It's getting to the point where I'm not even honestly surprised these kind of shooting massacres take place in the U.S. anymore.
