Trump just called out violent videogames as a cause of the shootings. Gamers are gonna be PISSED.
Hillary would have blamed guns and starting rounding up people.

Quote from: FatherlyNick on August 12, 2019, 09:13:48 AMDidn't every other country implement some sort of gun ban / buy-back after a mass shooting except for the US?Not every country but it's a common theme. Australia in 1996 with the NFA, the UK in 1997 with the FAA, Belgium in 2006, New Zealand in 2019... Not all had a buy-back too but countries do tend to make serious changes to their gun laws after these kinds of massacres.

In seeing a lot of people who - not here specifically - will discuss what political statement was made when something like this happens, I'll just say that I find it preferable to not give mass shooters the dignity of politicizing them beyond their philosophical violation of human rights. I think that if your idea of accomplishing political or religious goals is by means of massacring innocent people, you simply aren't worth listening to beyond how long it takes before we can figure out what exactly is going wrong in your sick mind. Because I don't believe that people who think it accomplishes anything are in touch with reality.

But I don't know because the stated query is vague. Please elaborate.
Two mass shootings in 24 hours
