This is a tragic event. Let's not derail the thread with a gun control debate. Posts from page 9 onward will be moderated for steering the discussion towards gun control.

I'm guessing they know why it's trending and they're trying to capitalize off it, which is still absolutely unbelievable.


I almost hope that's the case, because I'd rather thing they're terrible people than complete idiots. This whole event is sickening and I feel sorry for all of the victims and their families

". . . keeping this asshole around to taunt the mourning families with every additional breath he takes, and their loved ones don't." If this is what they are thinking about - then they're concern is incredibly misplaced.


Who are you to tell them where their concern should be placed? If you had any sense, you'd KNOW that regardless of what you want or consider correct, the normal human response of many of them will be exactly that.

Please stop being so quick to dismiss my pacifistic viewpoint as one that comes from a feeling of superiority.


Please read the views of Christopher Hitchens on pacifism, to learn my views on pacifists. At this point I'll stop discussing anything with you because I run the risk of severely violating the rules of conduct on this site.


And yet I feel I can talk to you freely without violating any rules. Perhaps that shares something about our respective arguments/viewpoints. AFAIK - the normal human response to great loss is grief. Not revenge. Revenge is never the answer.

Since you won't be responding - I wish you luck and health on your journeys. Farewell friend.
Now witness their attempts to fly from tree to tree. Notice they do not so much fly as plummet.

Could also be some automated web script that sends the tweet whenever the keyword is trending. It seems hard to believe That a person actually sent that.

Loneliness and depression have nothing to do with mass murder.

Yes. Are you? I think you have your mental illnesses mixed up a little bit, you should look into it a bit more before posting.

Westboro baptist church is saying that they are going to protest the funerals of those that died in Aurora...

I've never been able to stand these people, but i've always acknowledged their legal rights, but this is just ridiculous. Innocent people were shot for enjoying a form of media. There can be no justification for their protests here.

Loneliness and depression can cause suicide, why not mass murder? Clearly it can cause a mental break which results in something as tragic as mass murder.

You do realize that suicide and mass murder are, like, exactly the opposite of each other, right? Also, you do realize that the guy did not kill himself, right?

Something to do with the people deserved to die because they were worshiping something false or against god. WBC are scum but many many times local biker gangs have rallied to block them from getting anywhere near vigils and funerals like this. Good people will stop them, just sad that they would jump on this so fast.

You don't really have to be a psychologist to derive some conclusions... Most people who are intelligent can simply break (my friend who majored in Computer Science believed we were all in the "matrix" and legitimately testified in court about (in a civil case revolving around his family) how we were all simulations)

Most likely he saw all of the extremely disgusting aspects of society and how we as a people are, he couldn't handle it anymore, broke and in his mind thought the only solution was killing people. Obviously this was the wrong choice, but what your mind decides and what is right can be two completely different things (battery acid being thrown on the girls face because she was learning to read in the Middle East a year or so ago, guy believed it was right to do that to his daughter but it we can conclude that obviously it wasn't)

Anywho, all fucked up nonetheless, 7 billion people on earth, a few are going to snap.

Kind of what I was talking about ^, they believe it's right but it really isn't. Issue is how do we define "right and wrong". Sam Harris has a nice debate on that actually.
