School shooting in Tennessee

[bwframe]

No. I do not think there is a correlation. It’s a fool’s errand to try and understand the actions of the mentally disturbed, and assign a political connection.

Not a stretch though to see that the mentally disturbed can be and often are triggered by political actions.

No correlation between the riots in Minnesota last night over a police action shooting and a cop getting shot in the school today? Uh huh...

Latest update I saw said one dead, officer shot and has non-life threatening injuries. No one else was hit. So how is this a s mass shooting?

I have been accused of being rational, however.

Probably not on INGO.

 

[BigRed]

Must be something going on in that school....several "students" involved in shootings in the past.

I'm gonna go with gang activity/related.

A refresher:

 

[JettaKnight]

A little info on the school says you might be right.

Located on MLK Jr Ave

80.2% black

School finished 332nd out of 342 schools.

82.5% of students on free/discount lunch.

Certainly seems probable.

Ordinarily I might agree with this if I hadn't already seen such bizarre corruption in the current administration.

Too many bad things are happening at the same time. I have to wonder if some of the mentally ill aren't being manipulated and encouraged into commiting these attacks.

Well, right now the only place I am hearing the term mass shooting is in this thread by members. Has anyone heard it reported as one?

I think the term is subjective and used a lot to push a narrative.

Another example is that there were no found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq during the Bush presidency. Yet the Boston Bomber was found guilty for conspiracy to use a WMD and using a WMD. He built a bomb out of a pressure cooker. If we use the same definition of WMD that was used for the marathon bomber I really think we could find a ton of RPG's and other stuff that fits the bill for WMD in Iraq.

I think it has less to do with what the administration is than it does with what legislation they are trying to ram through.

Yes, convenient AF to have an incident every other day, isn't it?

Well I knew there'd be at least one: in the last year or so the msm and others declared anything with more than 3 people involved was a mass shooting. Should have known we'd be debating themeaning of "is".

I would be more likely to agree had we not had the same things happen when Clinton and Obams were making hard anti-gun pushes. Let's not forget that the Oklahoma City bombing with all its irregularities, came as the 1994 AWB was stalling in congress and Sandy Hook came hand in hand with a failed but nevertheless spirited attempt by Obama to attack the 2A.

I have s solution. It is only a Mass shooting when a gunman attacks a Catholic worship service.

Interesting choice give all the talk of Waco recently. McVeigh’s motives for OKB stem from that correct? You seem to imply that he was playing a part in trying to get the AWB passed.

That is what WLS out of Chicago was saying when I started this thread

My general conclusion is that some rogue feds caught wind of the McVeigh conspiracy and helped and guided it along.

Multiple people shot = 2
One injured, one dead.
Were in the world do we get "mass shooting" out of this???

Didn't the OKC bombing happen in April of 1995 and the AWB was in Sept. of 1994?

It works like a time I was assembling a Coleman canoe at work. A mutual friend of the boss and I dropped in, and I declared that I had something new to add to my resume--shipwright. As intended, Doug got a chuckle out of ghe notion that this made me a shipbuilder. Unfortunately, the pushers of narratives are actually selling this as serious reasoning to the sheep.
