The shooting of these two reporters is pretty horrific.. but is that considered a mass shooting?

although the United States has just about 5 percent of the world's population, the country has 31 percent of the world's mass shooters.

Yeah, so long as no one counts ISIS mass shootings and Syrian government mass shootings and Boko Haram mass shootings...

What about the high rate of anti-depressant use in the U.S.

I blame MSNBC. I bet this guy was a MSNBC viewer like Christopher Dorner, Elliot Rodgers, and Craig Hicks.

Why America Is Prone to Mass Shootings

How about the dirtbag in Colorado given life imprisonment? How about those who are given the death sentence knowing they have another 20 years to live? How about the liberals glorifying their actions as time marches on?

Why? Because we let the mentally ill roam our streets untreated.

Drugs / gang violence / mentally ill people rarely institutionalized / open borders / news media turns killers into cultural icons

“the country has 31 percent of the world’s mass shooters.”

Of course, no statistics given for comparable mass murder like car bombings.

People have turned their backs on God. When in emotional pain about anything, right or wrong, they don't turn to God and church member friends for help, they choose the violent path now. The answer is MORAL DEPRAVITY.

P.S. When you disagree with someone, threaten to kick his or her ass. That'll solve all of your problems. [/s]

Because we have a lot of guns, and a culture that celebrates grievance.

The first part is written into the founding documents.

The second part is thanks to you media parasites.

Guess which one we’ll defend to the death....

Why? Because we shut down all of our publicly funded mental health institutions and made it near impossible to have someone committed against their will.

[[Why America Is Prone to Mass Shootings ]]

The answer is VERY simple- it’s because liberals in their IGNORANCE believe that making criminals out of legal gun owners is going to solve gun violence- it is NOT- it’s only going to increase it because criminals KNOW people are afraid to use guns to stop them out of fear of being arrested themselves

I just posted an article where a COWARDLY shooter shot dead 3 people and wounded 4 in a crowd of kids outside a boys and girls club, and a man In the crowd stepped forward and shot at the COWARD who was fleeing, and now the man who was protecting the crowd is under arrest for firing a firearm

COWARDS who commit mass shootings know damn well they are NOT going to run into armed citizens and these COWARDS ALWAYS take people completely off guard because they are too COWARDLY to face them when they are prepared

Keep taking guns away from law abiding citizens liberals, and you WILL see crimes like those increasing you IDIOTS

The two reporters shot to death and the person being interviewed is hardly a mass shooting.

It was more like a double homicide and an assault followed by an attempted suicide that should be labeled a hate crime.

However, liberals will look at the gun and blame the gun instead of the perp who engaged in the hate crime!

For the last 30 to 40 years public schools have been teaching an amoral form of critical thinking skills (values clarification) that was specifically designed to produce psychopaths.

So there you go - the answer in a nutshell.

What better way to destroy the moral fiber of America?

How about the mass stabbings like the one that also occurred today. What causes that? “Global Warming”?

Research published in July found that states with more gun-owning households had higher rates of firearm assault, robbery, homicide and overall homicide compared with states with fewer gun owners.

A study made a few years ago by 2 Harvard professors, (I can't remember their names), found that although guns of any kind are illegal for Russian civilians except licensed hunters during hunting season the Russian murder rate is almost 4 times higher than ours.

Of course that study wasn't widely circulated since it flat out contradicts practically everything that America's gun grabbers claim to be true.
