The gun control argument stops now. I know it's fun to argue about it in the heat of the tragedy when you can get all worked up about it but it's pretty disrespectful and if you don't care enough about the issue to make a separate topic for gun control then you don't care enough to shit on the tragedy by exploiting it.
A gun control topic can be found here
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=313472

Also stop posting links to his facebook. TL will be no part of an unconfirmed witch hunt.

I see above ^^ that some Americans want to deport Piers Morgan because he apparently attacked the Second Amendment. I am no constitutional legal expert but isn't everyone signing that petition to deport him attacking his Freedom of Speech which is protected under the First Amendment? So they think they are standing up for the Bill of Rights by going against it themselves? That sounds stupid, so I must be missing something.

the conservative right in America have this bizarre aspect to them which is that they want masses of control over everyone's behaviour (when it goes against their cast iron moral principles) but they simultaneously preach about how they despise big government and, you guessed it, government control. Bizarre double standards.

It was difficult to watch all the news recaps that were happening yesterday, covering the worst crimes of the past year and the most tragic events. Everytime I get too wrapped up in myself feeling bad, I just have to remember that what I feel is miniscule compared to those who lost sometime in this shooting or any like it.

The problem is the family structure in the united states. The family structure is crumbling. There is something to be said about having some conservative ideals...and family should be one such case.

If you have Kids raising kids like we do at a higher and higher rate in this country, your opening all kinds of psychological problems for yourself as a nation.

I think you stand a better chance of success if you have two able parents raising you. It helps if they have some age to insure that they're instilling in you some real life lessons.

All to often kids are either destroyed by their families. Or are released into the world unprepared like sheep thrown to a pack of wolves. And mentality they cannot cope. We're doing this to our selves.

You know what is scary? Killing is a meme now. Started with one guy who thought it was cool, everyone passed it around, then another guy decided to make one about kids, now everyone's doing it. At the risk of sounding too facetious, my point is that talking about it all the time in the media, has begun more talking about it, which makes more people want to join in, kind of like a meme.

And like any meme, I just want it to end.

Now we are down to luring Firefighters to a blaze then shooting them down, 3 dead 2 critically injured. And then these things will be standard, so to keep the fame up we'll need to shoot more high profile things, or be more craven and cunning to grab that sweet media attention.

If I can use a meme to express my sadness against a meme itd be #don'twanttoliveonthisplanetanymore


I read what you wrote about 5 times over, and I still have no clue as to why you're talking about memes. I get what you're trying to talk about, but why the hell .. memes what....


Memes is a lot more than just funny pictures passed around online. Memes are ideas or concepts that spread from person to person.

He's trying to say that there are people who see mass shootings as a cool thing to do, because other people do it and get attention. It's like karma whoring on reddit, but instead of posting cat pictures, you go and kill a dozen people in the hopes that your name is remembered.

It's not even about things being judged as "cool" or not, it's the idea of a shooting by itself. If people would never have heard about a shooting, they would not come up with that idea by themselves, and would flip out in a different way, with a different idea they heard of, perhaps some method of suicide, perhaps selling all their shit and moving into the wilderness, etc.

It is sort of weird that google would block that search though isn't it? Not saying it's a hoax but I wonder why google would do that



I think this video shows how pathetic the media really is now though. They trip all over themselves vomiting any rumours that they hear as the truth. I mean every time a tragedy happens you can pretty much just ignore the news for a day or two until the real details come out. I remember the Brevnik shooting reports had multiple shooters so did the Aurora shooting....

Did some research regarding whether or not it was a hoax or not, including watching the 10 million view "Sandy Hook Exposed" video. Lots of the evidence sure does point towards a conspiracy, but seems like if the government really wanted to pull a cover they would make it a little harder for some random basement dweller to uncover this sort of thing. Some of the proof does look very convincing though.

How exactly do they explain more than 20 dead people? The government killed them?

I'd have to disagree. As of today, the search volume on google for "sandy hook hoax" is now one third of what the search volume for "sandy hook shooting" was on the day it happened. That's insane.

google trends link

"sandy hook hoax" is in red
[image loading]

search engines suggest it was a hoax. google doesn't even mention the shooting...
[image loading]

Second, there's a video with 9 million+ views. Why has it gone viral? Because of the number of wtf moments it contains. The whole video is wtf if it's the first time you're seeing any of this. This is really insane!!!

Here's an interesting comment on the video

Grenville84 6 minutes ago
1) Mass shooting does actually occur
2) Deliberately misleading reports & red herrings dispersed by media
3) Conspiracy theories propounded to account for the red herrings
4) Left to boil until conspiracies are rife and widely discussed (nearly 10m views here!)
5) Conspiracy theories are officially proven wrong, red herrings shown to be coincidental
6) Media reports how damaging the conspiracy theories were for the families
7) Fresh attempts to censor the internet

I flicked through a bit of that Fully Exposed video and must say I am fully WTFing over that Robbie Parker interview where he is laughing and smiling at the start.

I come click this thread just to see why it was bumped expecting new information or something instead i see this crap and my faith in humanity is again at an all time low...

Conspiracy theorist at my least fav people, it's arrogance that runs a conspiracy theorist. It's a disbelief in something that goes against their realm of what could be real leading to a forced rift and interpretation of information in order to magnify their needs to feel right, to feel special and safe that they see something that everybody else doesn't. It's down right disrespectful to those who often have given their blood and is further exacerbated by the part where conspiracy theorists pick and choose what to listen to. Somehow any information that goes against their world view is auto wrong.
