Dazzler 12644 Posted July 25, 2024 Share Posted July 25, 2024 BLM playing right into republican hands by making it all about them FFS.

Gemmill 52627 Posted September 5, 2024 Share Posted September 5, 2024 (edited) America can just fuck off at this stage. The mass shootings and the fact that it's a coin flip whether they give the world another four years of Trump. Just write the place off as a bad job.

Kid Dynamite 7932 Posted September 5, 2024 Share Posted September 5, 2024 (edited) The USA had 9 school shootings between 1898-1998. It's had 22 between 1998-2024. (There's that many now that they don't include them in the stats unless 4+ people were killed) Edited September 5, 2024 by Kid Dynamite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember there being one a month for a spell a few years ago - I'm guessing they were cases with three or less deaths so won't have counted.

Gemmill 52627 Posted October 8, 2024 Share Posted October 8, 2024 Marjorie Taylor Greene says that this is being done by malign forces with an intent to interfere with the election. Makes you think. Specifically it makes you think that she is a fucking smoothbrained arsehole, thoroughly unfit for the role that the similarly smoothbrained US electorate has handed to her. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
