    I don’t appreciate what you’re implying with the quotations. I’ve given zero indication over my 10+ years and 5k posts that I’m anything like what you’re suggesting. And the few times I’ve posted sketchy accounts, the videos themselves were nothing more than fuck around and find out content. I already owned up to impulsively posting before vetting. And haven’t repeated it since. So kindly fuck off with your bullshit and find a different target to fulfill your need to feel morally superior.

    I honestly don’t even understand what your angle is with this. Is it pretentious to have a general understanding of geography? Is this a west coast elites bit? What are you meaning to convey?

    If I can’t point out, say, South Carolina on a US map, do I revert back to not being a fart-sniffing braggart or something?

    The quotations come when you act all defensive instead of just immediately saying whoops, my bad. Anyhow, all is good. I just found the parallels funny with what tegg pointed out regarding our little geography tangent in the mass shooting thread.

    More geography and less mass shootings would be nice actually. To bad the shootings aren’t slowing down and honestly I feel will continue to rise in America.

    Go skiing there twice a year and let our kids roam freely because it’s such a relaxed area. They were having their version of bike week and it’s just another sickening example of stupidity in this world.

    Multiple mass shootings over the weekend and the thread only has like 5 post on them. Not knocking anyone here, but just another sign we are fucked. We are getting so used to it that we don’t even treat it like shocking or important news as a nation anymore.

    I’m not sure all of the reasons but he tried to plead guilty in 2019 for a life sentence but the state turned it down. It’s a capital punishment trial

    This is very close to where I live (about to move though), so at least there will be one fewer gun place among the dozens in Gwinnett. Last year, not that far from this place, at a separate gun store, and owner and employee got into an argument which lead to a shooting inside the fucking store.

    Nope, but the story is evidently the employee felt threatened, shot in self-defense, stayed at the crime scene when the cops came. An arrest warrant was issued for the owner a week or so later, that was the last update I found.

    I can’t do this thread every time it updates. Maybe it makes me a bad person, but sometimes it’s just too much. Also, giving likes to mass shootings seems weird.

    this happened right where I lived for 11 years, this is most likely gang related as this is the heart of Norteño territory (you can see in the video in the linked article the first guy you see is wearing all Red or “flamed up” as we call it). This area is a weird mix of gentrified but still at its core a heavily gang infested street especially 24th street which is the “capital” of Norteño territory in SF………my guess is that it was probably some Sureños who did it who’s territory is about a mile down the road in the Mission District in SF………..shootings are pretty common in this part of SF and so are super hip restaurants and bars in the same area it’s a weird mix

    I personally seen 7 dead bodies fresh on the ground just on 24th street alone in my 11 years living there, so not that surprising

    For context, last year Sweden set a modern record with 60 shooting deaths last year. Not mass shootings, mind you, but shooting deaths. That’s three days in America.

    I fucking called it, a Sur Rat (Sureño) as we called them back in the hood

    “SFPD later tied the car's license plate to Campos. They describe him as a member of the Sureños gang with ties to other gang members throughout the Bay Area.

    Campos also has an outstanding arrest warrant for a homicide in Oakland, as well as several other firearms warrants from San Mateo County and Alameda County, according to police sources.”

    I’m actually shocked they had that many. Seems high. They have the same population as North Carolina.

    NC had 1699 gun deaths in 2020. 879 were suicide.

    That was a record for them. I think the highest prior was in the 40s or as right wingers would call it, a Chicago weekend.

    Was walking on the first floor of my building. Guy holds a door for me and is then walking in front of me.
    I notice he had a hand gun in his back pocket. I got in the elevator. He walked into the parking garage.

    I was freaked out, about to call the front desk. Then remembered I’m in an open carry state so dude is just doing america shit. Nothing to be alarmed about!

    My first thought, sadly, was "wow only 9 shot and no deaths is pretty good for a Colorado shooting".
