Has anyone else noticed that -- all of a sudden -- there are very few mass shootings lately?
In fact, almost none.
It's almost like Obama realized that these events aren't getting the clamor for gun control he wanted.
It's almost like Obama flipped a switch.
Things that make you go "Hmmmmm."
I suspect that the switch has been turned off for a while....it will come on again about late Sept. early October just in time for the election.
Very odd how it spiked in 2008-2009, kept on, then seems to have dropped off in 2016.
Hmmmm.........
It seems to me that almost all of the mass shooting perps were either: Muslims, BLM fanatics, or deranged liberals.
I’ve noticed that it has recently stopped snowing. In the Northern Hemisphere, mostly.
Maybe the prescription drug companies have tuned down some of their “inert ingredients” because of certain side effects, like an imbalance that might increase the likelihood of psychotic behaviors in a small percentage of the population.
Confirmation bias?
There was that one you couldn’t escape on the news in Maryland the end of April. There’s also that big trial going on over Aurora.
This is because the “get everybody riled up” spots in the press are currently filled w/bathroom stories.
Always realize that the frequency of reporting of a type of story in the press provides no perspective w/reality. It’s all based on what they think will sell at the moment.
You almost never hear of stories about people successfully defending themselves with a gun, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. In fact, far more are in that category than the victim count of mass shootings.
Obama bought up all the bullets and forgot to share them with his crazies.
So if there aren’t mass shootings that is evidence for your claim, and if there suddenly is a mass shooting, that would also be evidence for your claim.
Yeah, it’s always best to structure your conspiracy theories so that you can claim anything at all that happens buttresses your case.
Umm, that chart doesn’t display any data from 2016...
“My bet is President 0bama will go on overtime seeking to actually try and prevent terrorist attacks by radicalized Islamic jihadists during the next few months, too.
He knows a terrorist attack of any substantial scale will absolutely eliminate chances for Clinton, Sanders, Biden, or Warren election.”
I disagree, prog’s like obama and his minions believe their own propaganda. They will rely on a strategy encouraging this kind of violence the closer we get to the election. They believe that the majority of Americans are with them and even if not, Obama’s great communication skills (spit, cough) will carry the day and be able to convince America that this violence is being caused by Trump’s violent rhetoric and followers.
Things are going to get very ugly the closer we get to the election. I do believe though, in the end, the American people will see through all this and that the more violent attacks by Obama’s and Soros’s minions will actually have the effect of coalescing more and more support behind The Donald.
The lull is not an indication that the handlers are withdrawn. The collapse of the American economy and thus the world economy is close now. No need to manipulate that which you are planning on dying off in chaos, starvation, disease, and demonic mayhem. AFTER a hundred million Americans or two have died off, the oligarchy plans to move their storm troops in and confiscate at will, anything they deem a threat to their power over the survivors. The age of antichrist is at the door. No need to pacify that which will be killed off by ‘natural causes’.
The shootings had the opposite effect. People wanted to be armed and wanted adults at the schools armed.
His promotion of crime and release of violent American prisoners and foreigners will only up the demand for self protection.
It’s funny you mentioned this Laz. Just the other day I was thinking the same thing. No active shooter incidents in quite a while. Before now it was almost like clockwork every 2-4 months at least one would happen.
I think the crazies may know there are a record number of gun owners and concealed gun carriers these days. They may be crazy but that doesn’t mean they are stupid and want to be killed just as soon as their plan gets started. This proves to me all active shooters are cowards at heart.
Another aspect is the media, to their credit for once, have stopped saying the name of the shooter thereby not giving them the infamous fame they craved. Seeing the previous shooters (that weren’t killed) in the news and serving life in prison looking completely pathetic may be helping too.
It does tell me they are preoccupied with something else at the moment. My guess is, that something else is having a "non-puppet" in the White House and the many, many millions of us who are now on to the game they are playing and have been playing for a very long time.
Conspiracy theories are for ideological losers that require elaborate ideas to account for why they are losing when much simpler truth not only accounts for that but also provides a clear process for success.
I don’t know if this is the answer you are looking for, but I think Charleston, SC, and the shooting’s aftermath, was a significant emotional event for this country. A possible turning point. Effects are subliminal, because no one knows how to begin to talk about it.
Surreal. White man masacres innocent blacks in church. Black community insisted on being Christian first, and black second. Blacks and whites came together in southern city. Race grievance industry told to stay away. At once sad, astounding and beautiful.
Usual race-mongers disoriented, mystified, muted.
Shootings stopped.
No encryption and no members-only area. It’s def. monitored, and that’s fine.
To your point, it’s not that there aren’t shooting, it’s that they’re not being reported.
